In Defense of Dr. Charlie Holloway.

MemberPraetorianMar-13-2017 2:29 PMIn space, you can’t hear people mock your scarf and flip-flops outfit.
I agree that in the history of cinema that that there has been no better candidate for the immediate use of a flamethrower on than Dr. Charlie Holloway. This view still stands when noting Zombie movies. Yes, fry the zombies but only after Charlie.
I have read criticisms of Logan Marshall-Green’s acting but I really do think he nailed it.
I apologize for the disgusting nature of the above photograph.
Dr. Holloway is shown spoiled, drunk, and pouting after the arrival on LV-223 did not include an Engineer parade (inconsiderate dead Engineer photo below) and someone handing him a pamphlet showing how he was created (and he only has time for pagan explanations). How familiar this image above has been as a reflection in my mirror…scary.
Can we admit that Dr. Holloway performed the biggest fumble in humanity’s history?
Dr. Holloway’s “anything and everything” definition of boundaries removed all restraint from David.
If I was asked by David 8 at the pool table why we (his creator) chose to create him I would tell him he was made in an attempt to reach our dreams in a way that we could not without him with tears in my eyes.
Then I would say I needed to puke (he would want to wait to put black goo in my drink hopefully) and run strait to Captain Janek. I would ask Captain Janek if there was a performance bonus for letting David experiment on members of the crew we didn’t like. If no bonus, then we would have to dust off the “Let’s waste the robot” plans.
These grotesque displays of spoiled pouting, I believe, brought the viewer into the place where the flamethrower was the best idea ever. I strongly believe Logan Marshall-Green should have won an award (or all of them) for this display. When I saw this display it was as if we were intra-century twins.
Any criticism of the above content is your welcome opinion. Please do not be vulgar.

you get thumbs up for this...especially the part about deserving the flame-thrower...
Gasoline is an expensive commodity, but it is well used in this endeavor...

MemberPraetorianMar-15-2017 8:56 AMThere were so many reasons to write this suwhited but self-disgust was the driving factor in that part. I'm so spoiled that if I pout hit me with a flame-thrower. Again, I apologize for how disgusting the pout picture was.

MemberFacehuggerMar-16-2017 10:05 AM@Ingeniero. Apology grudgingly accepted. I stand at the ready with the flame thrower...

MemberPraetorianMar-16-2017 11:00 AMI truly appreciate your reluctance in "grudgingly" suwhited. Sometimes the compassion in this forum overwhelms me.
I take this as compassion but please let me make myself perfectly clear, if you see me pouting in but a fraction of the display offered by Dr. Charlie Holloway, put the flame thrower 1 centimeter from my nose and burn off everything until it is a permanent display of smiling, appreciative teeth.

MemberChestbursterMar-17-2017 11:52 AMThanks for the laugh attack, everyone on the bus was looking at me like I forgot to take my medication or something.
Absolutely hilarious and without question your magnum opus. Really deserves its own topic.
