Was David a secret asshole?

he's openly an asshole

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XeMVrnYNwus

>And then I was alone again
>I learned of their ways
>And awaited our arrival

Two possiblities;
A) David's mission prerogative to find new life is still a go
B) When he learned of their ways, maybe he felt a justified reason in destroying them

Really hope it's the latter, since the former would make all the cute things he said about Shaw a lie.

>>82100166

Why did Shaw fixed him and then went to sleep while the killer droid had complete control of everything? Including her?

>>82100043

>"Sure, what's the worst that could happen?"

>>82100411

"Hey we should make this big ass docking thing right in the middle of our city so that if someone ever wanted to park a ship and drop weapons on us, they could."

Do Engineers not have social conflict?

Fuck you fascist. Maybe, you know, being an advanced society, they realized how fucking racist and sexist a close boarder society is?

That's actually some +A cinematography. Pretty awe-inspiring.

I was actually looking forward to Shaw, David, and the engineers plotline but looks like they will be in a fraction of the movie.

>engineers wanting to interact with humans
Did you miss the part in Promethus where the engineer literally attack everyone after waking up and immediately resumed his mission of bombing Earth?

Whatever those ships were tasked with in Prometheus, it was of extreme importance for the Engineers, as evidence by their joy of seeing a ship a thousand years old make a return. That's most likely why they let them in so easily. David could have easily fooled them from the comms, and considering their excitement, they seemed to be pretty desperate.

I'm of the impression that whatever they intended to make out of the humans, it was to benefit Engineer lives. That's mostly likely why David bombs the fuck out of them. It's doing unto them what they intended to do to humans.
>Look on my works, you mighty, and despair

>>82100166
Didn't he feel like the virus/alien was a perfect creation or something? He could very well just be replacing what he finds to be inferior beings with his idea of perfect.

Does he turn Shaw into the first alien egg, as Scott originally envisioned?

>>82100260
Long journey?

>>82100694
Did you fags even see the movie?

He's angry at humans and the engineers for building him just for shits and giggles. He's Prometheus, he wants to kill God.

It's going to be just like Prometheus. Visually kino, but with horrible writing.

>>82100687
David wants to be human, not a mere replica. He believes that his own creation, and humanity's creation through the engineers, proves that the creation of life is the paragon virtue among sentient life.

It looks like planetary destruction because of our perspective, as humans. In reality, all it is is one form of life superseding another. For a truly neutral party, its a draw. David views the creatures as his own creation (whether true or false) their propagation is his perceived key to winning the crown of true humanity.

Damn. That's kinda cool. I always wondered why he was fucking around with the samples in prometheus. Does this imply that he created the xenomorph?

Did anyone else really like Prometheus and like the look of Covenant but kinda treat them separate to the first Alien film?
I really like them as science fiction films but not as an expansion on that story.

Interesting. Why do you think David puts out a distress call to the new crew? Aren't they also headed to the engineers planet.

Is this him wanting to show off his creation.

>>82100043
Prologue was great in and of itself but it's a bit disappointing that they're finally going to living advanced alien world in this franchise and blowing it up 2 seconds after getting there.

>>82100889
>Does this imply that he created the xenomorph?
indirectly, he knows the goo does weird shit and transforms life, he started using the goo and esting and fucking around to "see what happens". I believe he thinks he is creating stuff. In retrospect he is like a stupid ass script kiddie that found some premade tool and yells he is a hacker. I hope if this theory about why he is a huge asshole is true, he ends up realizing he isn't the creator of new life form, just some random element in the grand scheme of things.

>>82100962
Obviously the next part of his plan is to destroy earth. His ship is probably out of fuel, puts out distress call so some faggots show up, kill faggots, steal ship, take goo to Earth.

Indirectly, yes, but we saw that in Prometheus already. In this case, I'm guessing it's directly, since he unleashes to goo on the Engineers.

Covenant takes place centuries after the Prologue, doesn't it? Notice the environment in the trailers, how it's just jungle, where as here there's obvious signs of a great civilization.

what's Prometheus?

>>82100427
He was commanded to pursue that course of action by weyland. Now, he's a free man.

>>82100746
Yes, but I don't think it's as simple as your making it out to be.

He is utilizing a creation of the engineers to destroy/test them, and he himself is a creation of one of their creations (humans). His motives are tough to gauge based off that.

>>82100043
Do you think Shaw will wake up, or does she die in that pod?

>>82101224
It is as simple as that faggot. Prometheus stole fire from the gods, David stole Goo from the Engineers and used it against them.

>>82100891
They modernized the scientists/crew a bit too much for my tastes. They act like they are on some kind of vacation in space instead of a ground breaking scientific expedition. To me it's like the difference between Jurrasic Park (serious dino shit) to Jurrasic Park 2 (fun and games with dinos).

>>82101065
David is a fucking robot...Is not someone else behind it with an agenda?

>>82101065
So he see him as a loyal "pet" that is just looking for a pat on the head?

>>82100166
Just FYI, these are parts of David speaking to SEPCOM (corporate earth police) about the mission failure. The film ends with him deciding, after killing off the remaining crew of the Covenant, to bring a small vial (hidden in his palm) of black goo to Earth and destroy all organic life as he sees himself as a god. He does this by shaking the hand of the officer interviewing him which starts the horrors on Earth, leading to the sequel likely about a human colony desperate to remain isolated. The epic twist is the planet Convenant lands on is in fact, the one the Protos (as seen in the trailer) inhabit, because they travel faster than light.

>>82101469
>but Prometheus was created by the Gods
He was a Titan that allied with the Olympians (Gods) against the other Titans during the Titanomachy. And because of that he was spared from being thrown into the pit of Tartarus with the rest of his kin.

So if he was created by anything it was when his Titan father Iapetus stuck his BTC in his Titan mother Clymene.
The only primordial deities that were really created out of nothing (Chaos) were Gaia, Erebus and Nyx since eventhough Uranus and Pontus would become husbands of Gaia, they werestill her offspring.

which means Gaia was an ancient primordial trap

Yeah, you get the impression in the original Alien that space travel is extremely resource intensive and dangerous. The way they react to landing the ship on an unknown planet is pretty appropriate, they're risking the entire ship. Its another reason I like the old CRTs and switches in the cockpit; it makes it feel like everything in the ship is built to be as rugged as possible because if anything breaks then you're fucked. The flashy holographic displays in the new ships make it feel like space travel is a bit too safe, and casual.

>>82101881
>the new ships make it feel like space travel is a bit too safe, and casual

Explained in universe by the fact that it's a luxury ship for Weyland and his daughter

>>82101880
Dude, did you see Prometheus? We went full retard a long time ago.

>>82101865
Fair enough.

But either way, David isn't Prometheus.

>>82101881
That could be just because the Alien ship was cargo transport or some shit. You could think of them like cars. Can't take a fully loaded semi out on some country gravel road without expecting problems.

>>82102033
It was a fine movie despite what retarded anons think

>>82101881
Ultimately, I think Prometheus just needed less add on characters. Sure, they work well for spare meat to throw at bad guys and as displays for gruesome deaths, but they ended up taking more away form the film than they gave.

So is the entire point of these movies to show some android guy kill literally everybody and just "dadadum" through life?

He gets almost all them niggas killed in prometheus, and now in this one he's going to kill the og's and humans? What the hell is his problem? What does he think will be left? Is he just going to zigzag through space for eternity and kill every unsuspecting being he happens upon? Is he trying to search for meaning? How can he possibly be stupid enough to think he's a god when somebody else could have done the exact shit that he did? He don't got no special powers er nuthin. He aint no god. Just an annoying rustbucket with an ego.

What a cunt lol

So dumb. All this after the end of Prometheus? I liked how Shaw and David were a little cathartic and amicable at the end of the move. It felt like even thought they hated each other, they had just been through the shit and the were all the other had left. LOL guess not.

>>82100043
tl;dr: David has daddy issues and no work ethics
Peter Weyland altered his programming as his personal android, so that he would study and experiment on whatever they could find without the burden of ethics and not hurting the people around him. In the regard, his programming is still in effect in Covenant.
In addition to that, he resents being looked down upon by people his whole life, and being discounted as nothing more than an object. The icing on the cake is when the Engineer in Prometheus literally sees him as an insult and a grotesque puppet. Now he's pissed and wants revenge on his creators and on his creators' creators.

is this shitty movie seriously going to make this shitty android into the creator of the classic xenomorph

who thought this was a good idea

Saw the full clip for the part that was shown in the trailer, the one where those two are sealed in quarantine and that woman was running in hallway. Albino alien bursts through guys back and other one bursts out of other guys mouth. I think it looked pretty good and intense. I'm hype for this movie

This shit reminds me so much of Nier Automata.

David's perspective is almost the same as the perspective of biomachines that killed all their alien creators. Biomachines fighting the androids who fight for humanity that extincted already is also ironic.

>>82105803

>it's fucking dumb
That's an opinion. AI's in the Alien universe are advanced as fuck. They don't feel emotions but they understand them perfectly and are able to reproduce them, to the point where it makes no difference.
Plus with David having had is programming altered, it can very well be a case of emergent AI.

>>82105458
Avatar is not part of the Alien timeline. But otherwise, you're right on the money.

There is a letter in canon that Weyland wrote. He talks about the failures of the Replicant program and how he will perfect android technology. But there are no deliberate references to Avatar and Alien.

Stop assuming David's gender.

>>82101398

>>82100411
It seems like they are almost halfway between Engineer and Human. I expect that dock was left by the Engineers and these Proto Engineers think that it is their makers returning.

>>82104080

How could you forget the terrible line reading Charlize gave for the big reveal?

>Fatherrrrrrr...

It was pretty cringy and also tonally out of place because it happens immediately after the horrific C-section scene.

>>82105239

Or James Cameron is creatively bankrupt.

>>82102494
in the leaks apparently the main character gets impregnated by david while shes in cryo, trying to escape. Its also implied that david replaced walter

they are space jews, david is just finishing what hitler started

>having any say over the Alien universe
Sorry but Aliens is action garbage. Ridley Scott is the only one with say over what is canon.

>Alien 3 isn't canon because I didn't like it.
It's canon. It is the finale. It is the only way to end it. Fuck your fairy tale Aliens 2 happy ending. Ripley must sacrifice herself to remove the final alien. That's a biblical ending. Doesn't get better than that.

B-BUT MUH HAPPY ENDING ;-;;;
Fuck off fags. Go watch Star Wars or some shit.

>>82100043
remember, according to the leaks here,
https://archive.4plebs.org/tv/thread/77400017/#77412050
which predicted the carpet bombing shit before this trailer was even out (approx decemeber of last year) the ones he's bombing are not actually Engineers, but another lesser child race. David bombs them because his curiosity programming was loosened greatly for his mission to secure immortality for Weyland. He just wants to conduct experiments all day and seeing how an engineer ripped his head of f simply for existing he probably wants revenge for HIMSELF rather than Walther, who has the interest of humanity at heart When shit hit the fan and everyone died David had no leash, he mentions in the movie "doesn't everyone want their parents dead?".

reminder

The black goo is an evolutionary accellerant programmed to produce the xenomorph in its target base organism. Other black goos, such as the one from the beginning of the film, are programmed for different target biologies

If you:
>Drink a small amount of black goo (such as David spiking Charlie's drink)
Your internal flora and fauna and parts of you would start breaking down and re-forming new organisms before you would even notice that something was wrong, and you would slowly break apart yourself
>Drink a fair amount of goo (such as the Engineer in the beginning of the film)
You would break down entirely in a quick cascade before your DNA starts reforming into new organisms. The effect the goo had on Charlie's sperm turned it into a proto-facehugger
>Immerse yourself in a lot of goo (Fifeld and the worms)
You, yourself, mutate into a fucked up creature

>>82112782
Stop spamming this bullshit in every thread.

>>82112764
>Folks, let me do you all a favor and clear up a misconception: there are indeed two factions of engineers (at least, those relevant to our story). The rebels are housed on this planet, which David murders. This is why there is one citadel and only a few thousand Engineers living in the city. You will all see a scene where many Engineers look up the sky confused as they see the Derilict come and drop the vases full of black goo. So this is simply a rebel faction and not the real race of Engineers.
interesting

>>82113116
>David has unrestrained curiosity which was supposed to help find immortality for weyland
>he is now a dog without a leash
>Hates humans for thinking he's just a "thing" with no soul and wouldn't understand Shaw's question of reason for existence/ wanting to know why Engineers wanted to destroy the humans
>Engineer also rips his head off of David in rage that said engineer's creation has already created "life"
>David uses his curiosity as revenge against the Engineers and experiments on them and everyone else
>his curiosity blinds him so much that he didn't actually bother to check if the world he was about to slime was actually inhabited by real engineers
>thinks he's God just like the Engineers thought they were, and just like the humans
>now creates and experiments with life himself
In the end I imagine the real Engineers will rip off his head again, or maybe they'll be more poetic and have a xeno do it

>>82112841
not bullshit

>>82100411
Wasted dubs, see the archived link here >>82112764, they are a penal colony that are primitive and worthless unbeknownst to David at the moment of bombing

man fassbender is getting old

rip

so are blade runner and alien sharing the same universe now or not

>>82113539
Maybe the whole thing is a plot thread to show that the interest Weyland-Yutani has in the Xenomorphs isn't limited to "muh bioweapons".

They probably want to track David down as much as anything else assuming he survives the preqels.

David is only working in the interest of his curiosity for the sake proving he can create life greater than that of his creator's creators, I'm pretty sure he doesn't give a shit about humanity, especially looking at the leak thread archive David disguises himself as Walther after killing him offscreen, even styling his hair the same before he killed Walther, in preparation. It ends with Tennesse and Daniels going back into cryo sleep for the long journey to their original destination before receiving beacon at Paradise. Walter (David) closes their pods and goes down to the colonist bay wheres theres 2 thousand grown colonists and 1,300 embryos or something. Turns out he snuck two Proto Xeno embryos on the ship and puts them with the human embryos. He skips away and movie ends.

>>82101606
Maybe like his own creator he goes batshit crazy into God mode, wipes out the Engineers using goo and from the biological evolving soop below starts creating life. Somehow he harvests Noomi's (once infertile) eggs to create facehuggers allowing better reproduction of the perfect species ever created, one which all following androids marvel about when they come into contact with it. Just a hunch.
