Charlie Holloway: What we hoped to achieve was to meet our makers. To get answers. Why they even made us in the first place.
David: Why do you think your people made me?

That's it. That's their story. Literally the most interesting thing about them is how they made another more interesting species.

Describe what makes them the opposite of Plebian. I fucking dare you. Describe their depth, explain their kinoness, go for it. Do it. Explain what's great about the Engineers.

Just once I'd love for a Prometheus fan to explain what's good about it without saying "you just didn't get it" (what was there to even get? It's a movie where there's a bong built into an HEV suit for fucks sake).

So go for it, mate. Explain the depth behind the Engineers that I just didn't get.

I enjoyed prometheus, and the whole idea of the engineers seems really cool to me. But I gotta admit they really botched the execution of the film.

It's hilarious you guys are acting like Prometheus isn't the same shit.. IT IS. It's still a crew dying one by one, but they die to different things than a xenomorph. Like...

Their entire outlook on life and the creation of it. Here we have a society that is no longer motivated by a search for food, fuel or resources and has taken to creating life as experiments, making them godlike. Having an engineer interact with David, as a creation's creation, was very interesting. The black goo is shown to be the giver or taker of life depending on how it is interacted with, see the mural changing in Prometheus.

I'll gladly admit the design is lackluster after the space jockey tease in Alien, and using a flute to operate a vessel carrying terrorfluid is ridiculous, but the engineers are the most interesting and explorable element added to the Alien-mythology in decades.

Also, we look like them, not the other way around.
>>
What even were the engineers? What was so interesting about them? They're aliens, and apparently they want to kill humans. That black goo shit is so clearly whatever the plot needs it to be.

Someone, please make an argument for what makes the engineers interesting, because I don't see it.

That's what made the movie so much less than it could have been imo. I don't mind having the xenos stir up shit, since they are still a big part of the story.

But it should have explored more into the engineers, the creation of the xenos/humans, and possibly other creations of theirs. Possible glimpses into the engineer society or something. But it got way watered down into something plebs could easily digest
>>
>>80177661
They probably end up having nothing to do with xenos, it'll be David and itll turn out he was somehow the space jockey in alien

It sounds like it still might explore the creation of Xenos, but I think the idea that the engineers created humans is stupid in the first place. I'm not sure there was a deeper well of ideas to tap there.

I would watch all these movies. Also having the predators thrown in at the end is destined to be kino, I'm fairly sure I've seen at least one of the alien/predator movies and they were just cheap action flicks. But having the predators go to war with the engineers to wipe out the source seems pretty epic. Granted the preds would still have to deal with the xenos who are already out there, but that's where your one off flicks come in. they are just cleaning up the engineers mess

I hope they still delve into the origins but it'll likely be way less than I would like. I wouldn't even mind if the engineers didn't create humans. just as long as they had some sort of great ability like that.

I mean we could create mutant races today, so whats to say this group of albinos didn't do experiments all over the universe or something.

The Story So Far:
>Long ago the Creators came to primal earth and seeded the water with their DNA, leading to complex life and eventually humans made in their image
>The Creators visited and fostered the primitive humans and gave them information they would need to find them in the future when humans eventually developed interstellar travel
>The Predators hunted the Creators but got their ass kicked. They eventually retreated to deep space and avoided the Creators.
>Around the year 0, the Creator's culture underwent a religious schism which resulted in a fundamental change in belief. The lesser engineered races, such as the humans, were deemed abominations by the new faction. Now dubbed the Engineers, they created advanced bioweapons and began a crusade to wipe out the lesser races of the Creators
>This bioweapon got out of control, weakening the Engineers and prompting an attack by the Predators, who almost wiped them out
>Soon after the Predators began to harvest the Xenomorphs for hunting and to test their new warriors (as seen in the AvP movies and in Predator 2)
>The Predators came to earth at some point after the fall of the Engineers and had limited contact with the people of South America who built a culture based around the example of the Predators, who were treated as gods
>Predators become the supreme power of the galaxy
>Following the events of AvP, Charles Bishop Weyland discovered the existence of a pyramid in Antarctica etc etc.
>Predators continue to hunt on earth
>Following a Xenomorph outbreak on earth during the very early years of the 21st century (AvP 2), a Predator's gun was found and presented to Mrs. Yutani
>The events of Predators happens here
>Later, Peter Weyland traveled to meet the last remaining Engineer during the events of Prometheus
>The events of Alien: Covenant happen soon after
>The Alien movies happen, etc etc.

the engineers arc literally gives the entire alien/ alien vs predator story a reason to exist. plus it ties it in to a rich and complex conspiracy structure we can already relate to...

We had to look like them because Scott likes the whole "made in muh image" connection. We aren't as strong or as intelligent as them, but we're cunning and tricky. The comics reveal that the predators think of us highly, because of how craft we are. In Predators for example, we win constantly by trickery and when we result to brute force, we always lose. Dat Russian with the bomb on his chest, the predator thought he'd just stick him and revel in the kill, but nope. Was that movie skipped by most people? It's great but never talked about...

I don't know what that is. But yes the Engineers are giant subterranean humanoids. That's why their skin is pale, their eyes are black and their ship corridors look like tunnels. They aren't artless either, despite their savagery, as they use musical keys to operate their ship

>>80178890
Topher Grace gets lost running out of the old driller that Larry Fishburn lives in. The big guy Russian feels bad and goes back for him. He shoots the predator but get's cornered by him and lets Topher go so he can live. The predator stabs him and lifts him but the Russian reveals a mortar on his chest. He blows it right in the predators face.

>>80179215
That site was given to mankind as the place to go to find the creators, so it was once a major base of theirs. The engineers weaponized it and ruined it, but it was likely second only to paradise as a Creator/Engineer base.

The engineers largely succeeded in wiping out the lesser races, as only the humans and arcturians survived, it seems. Humans can breed with arcturians so it stand to reason they are also related to the Engineers/Creators.

Did the engineers meet predator?

>>80179517
The engineers wear suits while the creators did not. Their suits don't have gadgets like the predators but it makes them insanely resilient and strong. If I remember he beats the predators ass almost easily. It's the main reason why in my headcanon I think the predadors had to wait until the bioweapon malfunctioned to attack them, since their technology and strength is so advanced. In Prometheus David sees that they have almost unlimited knowledge of the cosmos.

>>80179564
first scene of Prometheus and the related deleted scenes. they dress different, act different, have different ships, even sacrifice themselves for humanity. the later engineers hate us and worship the xenomorph images on their religious murals and would never give their lives for us.

http://avp.wikia.com/wiki/Arcturian

As for the Creators, as I said several times lol, it's just my headcanon name for the nice Engineers. Those who use their knowledge to foster life rather than to pervert and destroy it. Ridley Scott has said that the Engineers as they appear in Prometheus/Covenant did NOT create mankind. I took that as a confirmation of my headcanon theory that the Engineers are a religious faction that emerged much later than the creation of mankind and the arcturians and instead wants nothing more than to destroy us. But we will just have to say.

If you like the Predator aesthetic then the second AvP movie is great for you. It shows a Predator basically getting alerted to the Xenomorph outbreak on earth and being like "Fuck..." then he hops in a ship and leaves the city and flys out. He has this little acid that dissolves all evidence of them too, he basically acts like a detective hunting down the infestation. It's really good. The ship looks really good and so does the home city.

I saw it as the Creators wanted nothing more than to shape the galaxy in their image. They had what appears to be almost unlimited knowledge of the galaxy, which was likely sparsely populated at best. So they began terraforming and spreading their DNA around and fostering those creations. I don't see anything sinister in it prior to the rise of the Engineers, but Alien: Covenant might change that

The only reason I went to Prometheus is because it was going to have the origin of the Xenomorph. It didn't have shit. The Engineers were revealed and they weren't what I thought. I thought the original pilot guy was awesome, but these Rick Spencer engineers weren't that cool. It also shoehorned a bunch of stupid characters when it should have focused on Shaw 100%. The idea of another exploration mission is insane. They should know all about these fucking things because of Ripley's past stories. Its like the original alien movies don't even exist. When you watch new alien movies they are reboots.

>>80180716
Is disagree. The addition of the Engineers was really good, and the scene at the beginning of Prometheus was really memorable. I did really like Shaw though. The Xenomorphs being on the walls of the Engineer's temple in Prometheus also worked well for me, because it showed that their existence was part of the Engineer's religion. So was their hatred for mankind. Shaw's unanswered questions to the Engineer made me want to see the sequel ("why do you hate us?" "what did we do?" "why do you want to destroy us?")

Did the original alien movie for sure take place before the prometheus one? Seriously I can't be asked to remember all these movies/timelines. especially when I haven't seen any of them for more than a decade.

If you want to provide me a list, you might as well include predator crossovers, so I can concoct my own crazy theories while we're at it.

no, alien took place after Prometheus. same for alien covenant

Ridley Scott should just turn the Forerunner Trilogy by Greg Bear into movies, Forerunners are essentially the same thing as Engineers
>>
>>80181201
Good books.

In Alien, the alien is incredibly sexual and childlike, and this was one of the most interesting parts of the film to me. In Aliens, this was removed in favour of generic monster hordes. Does the series ever recapture the original alien?

Thats because it was very young, aliens in alien had time to mature to full adult

>>80181273
No, it took on Kane's characteristics. Specifically his sexual attractions towards Lambert. And thus saved her for last in whatever it did to her.
>>
>>80181273
Alien 3 was more interesting to me in that sense, they're in a prison with no weapons to kill that thing.
>>
>>80181133
ok thanks. what happened in resurrection though? pretty sure I never saw it.

>leaving that big of a break between Prometheus and anything involving the engineers

I'm guessing resurection only involves the xenos and some rando humans waiting to be killed.

total shit

Same with 3 which i think is the most interesting alien a more sas beast

Thay gave it to a french arthouse twat who fucked it up, gave them wombs unkilled Ripley and brown, FUCKING BROWN aliens. It was really stupid so many things in it to annoy

I love the alien universe but I stopped watching about 20 minutes in. Wedon is a fucking faggot hack. The scene at the beginning with the guy shooting the fly through the straw couldn't have been stupider if he'd tried

So how this guy get facehugged when the "mask" is one solid piece? It doesn't look mechanical at all.

The exact moment when what I had hoped after 30 years of wondering were going to be cool elephant trunk faced monstrosities turned out to be albino homosexuals made out of balloons, Ridley Scott was dead to me.
>>
>>80181610
>It doesn't look mechanical at all.
That's because it was designed by Giger. His whole gimmick is making it hard to tell where the machine parts end and the bio parts begin
>>
>>80181728
Facehuggers aren't interested in androids though
>>
>>80181766
Well to be fair, Xenos kill them as well. They're just immune to the acid so Xenos are vulnerable
>>
>>80181610
It was originally supposed to be an elephant alien, but hollywood execs / scotts dementia turned them into stupid looking bald humans. Greatest disappointment in all of cinema history.

This is why I have trust issues. Can't we have an explanation that the Engineers were created by the elephant men? And based their tech on their appearance?

Just as dangerous as Xenomorphs but don't rape you to breed.

>It doesn't look mechanical at all.

was it supposed to be mechanical? Have I forgotten that much about the movie? I thought the face huggers were just supposed to be some creation out of their goo, that caused the devastation of planets/races?

Didn't Prometheus end with her and Magento going to the engineer home planet?

>>80182026
It's not really known if the original Xenomorphs are worshipped or were created. Maybe harvested their DNA and started creating variants.
>>
>>80182094
Yea then shit got fucked up
>>
A movie oriented on the engineers would likely remove most of their mystery and appeal. You want a movie since they're enigmatic, but that film would unravel the very thing which makes them interesting.
>>
>>80182101
>It's not really known if the original Xenomorphs are worshipped or were created

I'm pretty sure I've seen some videos where it was said that ridley got heavily pressured out of his original idea.

as long as it involved a larger picture I would be satisfied. ie. the engineers were at least somehow involved with the larger story.

>>80182174

Banter in the mess after the Marines woke up, Frost was talking about getting Arcturian poon-tang, then I think Hudson tells him that he was with a male, which Frost replies with something like "it don't matter when it's Arcturian."

I'm a total outlier here, but for the X-files, I was mostly interested in the mytharch. the monsters of the week were interesting but after a certain point they literally did nothing for me. Granted it took, me like 8 seasons to become uninterested. so I better not die here.

How did promethus knew where shaw was
How did shaw kid got so big
Does the black goo turns your cum into xeni cum
If the black goo is a parasite transmitted by intercourse why does it kills the host in about 8 hours
Wouldn't it be betger for it to wait like at least a month

>>80182925

Goo probably reagranges dna and targets specific genes, and has some built in accelerator to speed results along

Did it make the dude want ro fuck shaw
>>
>>80171311
Fuck off. When Prometheus came out everyone couldn't stop bitching about them and noe suddenly a lot of those people suddenly love them and want movies about them.

Directors should never listen to their audiences.
