Prometheus: 20 Blunders That Ruined The Film

12: Isn't It Cute?

The Scientist who initially ran at the sight of a corpse finally starts to behave like his job description suggests he should. He meets the alien sticking out of the black goo and genuinely seems amazed at what hes seeing. But instead of following some sort of a protocol for when you meet a species for the first time, he decides to act like hes just seen a new puppy for the first time. It's coming out of the water, he cant see all of it, how does he know whats on the other end of the tentacle? Why is he trying to touch it? In a situation like that you have to take extreme care just in case the creature can be hurt by you touching it and not to mention that it might be lethal.....and in this case it was.
