I have a vet appointment for the doggies today, so hopefully we'll begin to get to the bottom of the bloody stool I found, which will hopefully be not as dire as it sounds. Wish me luck, I've certainly got my fingers crossed.

So frustrating. The characters make stupid decision after stupid decision. These are supposed to be some of the most intelligent scientists in history. And that shit that Michael pulled? At least in Alien the provide a rational explanation for why Ash does what he does. But no reason here. And everyone spends 2.5 years in cryo before even hearing what the mission is??? Strains believability.

Yeah, there was a lot of small details that really made no sense.

"Let's march into an unknown alien structure that was obviously built, yet have virtually no weaponry to defend ourselves!"

"Everyone! Helmets off! Whoo hoo!"

"Look at the cute snake! Let's pet it!!!!!"

"Guys! We're the only ones left! Let's just say "Fuck It!" by sacrificing our own lives and crash into that ship!" "Fuck yes!!!"

"Oh god! Oh god! It's falling in a straight line! Let's OUTRUN IT!!!!!"

I don't think it's my love of the alien franchise and high expectations that let me down, so much as a badly written script.
