Strange, unanswered questions don't piss me off. For example, the ending to Lost, which Lindelof also had a hand in.
Lost was a time sink anyway. I watched the first two episodes with eager anticipation and quickly realized that this was a story without ending, like a soap, and that they were just going to keep feeding the audience crap to maintain its interest like a carrot before a horse.
I don't see the comparison with Prometheus. That movie is simply begging for a sequel containing the answers. This was made explicit at the end. It's just frustrating having to wait, like ketchup pouring slowly from a bottle.
There have been movies that left unanswered questions for a reason and on purpose, such as a grade B sci-fi flick that ends with a big ? question mark.
