His direction is still spot on, it's just the stories he's telling are teaming piles of overly sentimental crap

Exactly. The plot sometimes was little more than a horror B movie: 'Hey let's split up' or 'Let's see what's in that spooky basement'.
Prometheus lost me the moment the 'scientists' took their helmets off when the air is revealed to be breathable. I mean, would anyone sane do that ??


Now all Ridley Scott needs to do is ruin Blade Runner....

Taking helmets off is important for non-plot related reasons. Simply put - it looks better on film if you can see the actors faces.
