The original Total Recall was ’80s B-movie shlock. It doesn’t even come close to being a classic. Fun movie, but that’s about it.

So is Colin Farrell. He’s a bigger box office poison than Biel. Wiseman made a huge mistake casting him. Then again, Wiseman probably would have been wise(no pun intended) to not do this film.

The original is far from perfect.

Of course he didn’t. I didn’t think the film was great by any means. It was just okay. The reason it flopped is nobody wanted the remake in the first place, and Colin Farrell is box office poison.

Ummmm… I saw a three titted hooker in the movie. Just before he goes into Total Rekall.

I agree. Take a look at Alien. It left the audience with tons of unanswered questions that didn’t get answered until Aliens came out, and even then, some weren’t answered until Prometheus came out 20 years later.

“What laid the eggs?”

“Who/What was the Space Jockey?”

“How did the company know about the aliens?”

and on and on.

So what you are saying is I should dumb myself down to enjoy the shitty film? Sorry, but no excuses, i did walk in without any kind of high expectations, I saw the movie and it sucked, it sucked hard.

I have seen new and upcoming directors do a fantastic and better job than the people who worked on that shit-tastic Prometheus film. When you put out hand jobs like The Hunger Games, Prometheus and god knows how many reboots to movies that we just don’t need and end up hating, you end up with a sore ass, someone forgot to tell the Director a hand job isn’t about sticking his hand up someone’s ass for however long that piece of shit was, its about giving the viewer some fucking satisfaction.

Avengers is the most mindless, plotless, robot-acted piece of crap ever to come from Marvel films

total recall should not have been remade! the original is a sci fi classic and this version was just BAD

Just goes to show that all sci fi is gay now. Except for Star Wars. Star Wars is still cool and so is Red Dwarf. New episodes of Red Dwarf and Star Wars – The Clone Wars are awesome. Looking forward to the live action Star Wars series. Read some of the scripts for it in Star Wars Insider.

Doctor Who 2005- remake is gay and shit, Blakes 7 remake will be gay and shit. The new Bourne, I mean Bond movies, the daniel craig ones are gay a shit, totally ignoring the previous 20 movies, total shit. The christopher nolan batman films are gay and shit. The jj abrahams star trek remake is gay and shit. Now the stupid prohomomeateus movie, promeatheus is gay and shit, no way this is related to alien at all, it is shit.

Total true, i will now call that gay movie prometheus, prohomomeatues, those aliens look like gay albino’s. Stupid, stupid, stupid movie.

Exactly, alien 1, 2, 3, 4 and avp 1 and 2 and predator 1, 2, 3 are better, much better than the crap and gay and shit that is prohomomeateus, prohomomeateus is not related to alien at all.

By: ed

ed — Tue, 09 Oct 2012 05:07:00 +0000

no, prohomomeateus is bad, avp 1 and 2 are much better and aliens 1-4 and predator 1-3. Prohomomeateus is not even related to alien, the space jockeys do not look like albino gay shits. the space jockey in ‘Alien’, that was a exoskeleton, so nothing albino, gay looking was underneath. Even AVP 2 got this right, by having the space jockey exoskelton in ‘Alien’ in the Predator trophy room.

promethues or pro-homo-mearteus was shit, not alien at all, there are only 4 alien movies and two spin off alien movies and three predator movies. pro-homo-meateus is just shit

there was clearly a 3 titted hooker in the trailer and movie and it was clearly put in there for people that remember total recall for having 3 tits

i just want to say 2 things.
i feel every single remake is always put under way too much scrutiny and double standards, like complaining they didn’t change anything and complaining when they do change something.
this movie in particular i’ve heard both as major reasons people didn’t like it
as a big Philip k. Dick fan i was excited for this movie cause i love the original and would have loved too see one of his best mind fuckeries with genuine good effects and not that horrifically lame scene where arnie almost explodes.
i finally got to see this a couple days ago, i really cant see what’s so wrong with it.
there’s no mars like the original story, has a great design, cool action and the world was thought out including random design elements in the background that was very much inspired by real world concepts and such.
i just didn’t see any big screw ups (i can see people being disappointed with an unambiguous ending, but people also hate endings that are ambiguous) and bad writing lines.
i wanna go on too say i think it would have done waay better without the existing movie.
because honestly how many of you just assumed it would be bad imply because it’s a remake, which there are many many great remakes (including some of the widely regarded all time greats like Leon and Reservoir Dogs (unofficial))

I think everyone who hates Prometheus went into the theater with too many expectations ( hot director , new envisioning of a popular series , sexy stars that are good actors ). So because it’s slightly flawed in SPOTS , and doesn’t spell out a lot of backstory people rag on it hard . I read almost everything about it I saw online , but I went into the theater with no expectations – just let it wow u , ignore the silliness . And I thought it had enough good parts to outweigh the bad ones ( 60-sec abortion ?? and no crippling stomach pain … bad ) … What , no Winona fan ?? )) I would rather watch Noomi tho . I might watch AVP over A:R and enjoy it , but Prometheus isn’t worse than either of those …

not a better goal Tim just some fleshing out of the characters . U find out a little about him ,Bokeem – who was great ! and Beckinsdale chanelling Selene once she’s not thr Good Wife . But nothing about Biel and really how they fell in love , no small details about Hauser’s conversion , or how Matthias resistance ” came to be ” . Action suffers without character development , cause you end up not caring who lives or dies …

Thank you Henry ! Most of the complainers about ” plotholes ” seem to want everything spelled out for them , and can’t like a movie otherwise . The ONLY problem I saw was the ” 60 second abortion and now we use our stomach muscles like nothing happened ” scripting . And we all know there’s another 2 movies coming , so just wait till then for answers .Like most movie series ( Star Trek Star Wars Terminator et al ), the 2nd one will probably be hailed as the best …

I really liked it and i thought it was the best part that colin has played cos i dont really rate him as an actor generally. but i was happily surprised by the fllm….especially cos its hard to go up against an arnie classic.

as for prometheus it is my favourite film of the year absolutely fantastic! cant wait for the next installment everything about it was right on the money…just like the first one…a thinking persons alien movie….bloody brilliant.
