Alien: Covenant. Everything would have been fine if the characters weren't idiots

This movie's events completely circle around the stupid decisions of people who have supposedly "trained" for this. Not one of them wear environmental isolation suits when going into a planet with unknown flora and fauna. If they'd simply said "hmm we don't know anything about this ecosystem we are going into, we should probably be careful" instead of walking in wearing nothing but hiking gear and their hopes and dreams no one would have gotten infected. They are supposed to be experts yet they traipsed around like they're on a trail in Yellowstone national park instead of treating it as it was, an unknown hostile alien environment. It is impossible to connect with characters or feel even remotely sorry for them when they make the stupidest of decisions that any Cub Scout who's seen Star Trek could tell was a bad idea. This is just another movie whose entire storyline would be invalidated and circumvented if the characters weren't morons.
