Neither. Prometheus took sci-fi and horror to a place the genres should never go: boredom.

Given the freedom of the 'prefer' qualifier, I'll go with Bilbo Baggins of Bag End in Hobbiton.

The Hobbit trilogy was too long, veered totally from the charming book, had dodgy CGI and I never warmed to Freemans Bilbo. However even with its faults it's better than Prometheus.

I guess I'm one of the few people here that actually liked Prometheus.
(Mom always told me I was a little off.)
