Milburn's abrupt changes in demeanor are also better depicted.
No explanation on how those pair of jokers got lost while MAPPING THE LOCATION, though....
I keep on forgetting to post this in the Prometheus thread but I had a theory after watching it the first time at the cinema that Milburn was secretly gay or had a man-crush on Fifield.
1. Milburn immediately zeroes in on Fifield at the mess hall, sits down at his table, and introduces himself with a creepy schoolgirl-crush smile. Milburn doesn't even bother introducing himself to another crew member directly seating besides Fifield. This anonymous crew member looked to be decently dressed and civilized, all good qualities for a potential friend. But nooooo, Milburn is more drawn to the mohawked heavily-tattooed serial killer looking Fifield. Go figure. (Who in Weyland Industries screens these assholes??)
2. At the debriefing, Fifield belittles Shaw's star map and Milburn is the only one grinning like an idiot. And when Fifield puts down Shaw's Engineer theory and Milburn laughed like it's the greatest fucking joke he has ever heard in his life.
3. When Fifield has a nervous breakdown inside the alien building and asks who wants to join him back to the ship, Milburn happily says yes. But of course [with Bane voice]. Milburn, abandoning his natural scientific curiosity, hopes to get some quality time with his BFF.
Fifield >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> potentially the greatest scientific discovery of mankind ever
4. Fifield and Milburn get lost inside the alien structure. I'm pretty sure Milburn mislead them and intentionally got themselves lost so that he could spend an uninterrupted romantic evening with Fifield.
5. When Fifield freaks out at seeing the cobra alien life form, Milburn takes this opportunity to show Fifield that he is boyfriend material by petting the snake against his better judgment.
6. Before the cobra enters Milburn's mouth, if you listen really carefully, you can hear Milburn's faint death cry,
"I love you, Fifield..."
