  1. you guys seriously debating the tech of the ship compared to the nostromo? You do realize that Prometheus is a weyland research vessel and Nostromo is a mining ship.

    Do you see touch screens and state of the art equipment at mining sites or machinary? no? i didnt think so.

    They are built for purpose and practicality. Nostromo has no need for bells and whistles,the tech is made to be strudy and to last.

    Prometheus is completely different.

    Yes, yes, yes... Hologram interactive controls, flat screens, and etc on the Prometheus, but on the Nostromo 2 inch thick keyboards, bulb xmas lights, no LED's, xerox printer, and mono-tone TUBE screens.

    It's like comparing the GPS of a Lamborgini Aventador to a wooden wagon used by a French farmer before the Germans invaded.

    Have you seen present day mining equipment? They have tech that makes NASA HQ look a normal magnet compass.

    Mining these days have absorb benefit of technology to ensure every last flake of gold and coal is scrabbed into the profit machine.

    For one thing, the Nostromo wasn't a mining ship, it was a commercial towing vessel hauling an ore processing plant. And second, it's not a case of Cutting edge tech vs rugged, reliable tech. It's a case of having a telegraph on decades after inventing the radio.

    THANK YOU! ^_^

  2. The Nostromo was a mining tug. The Prometheus is a dedicated research vessel which is probably ridiculously well-funded. It seems to me like the type of equipment between a mining tug and a research vessel is probably going to differ drastically in quality, even if there is a time gap between the two.

    Like interactive hologram controls vs the years later biege keyboards, xmas tree lights, and a xerox printer in the Nostromo... :lol:

    Don't care what the producers and director say, NO WAYS IN ANY intelligent dimension is this film the proper prequel as the Prometheus's technology is just way too advance. End of story. ;)
