Is it really that far-fetched to believe, maybe, on a planet with an atmosphere almost identical Earth's, that similar vegetation would eventually grow? It's a pretty simple concept.
>>
I've heard that wheat is man-made. Is that true?
>>
clearly, the bald people who got killed by the mist

>>82955219
the probability of this happening must be close to 0. But the universe is infinite so..

This shit show made Prometheus look good. It's almost like Ridley Scott was so assblasted by the Cinema Sins video, that he took all the retarded shit and cranked it up to 11.
>>
>>82955219
They make a point of saying it's literally wheat, not something that looks just like it.
I don't understand how this is an issue though, I thought the implication was that the Engineer's seeded Earth with flora that was like theirs.
>>
>>82957050
That is the implication. You have to keep in mind though that the average iq of this board is well below 80
>>
>>82957050
see
>>82956969
the people in the mega-city who got killed by the black mist? That was their food supply. They were killed only a few years prior so of course the wheat continued to grow.
>>
>>82954306
David did.
>>
Makes more sense for David to plant it
>>
>>82955219
Wheat isn't natural, dipshit
It's the product of thousands of years of domestication. Look up emmer or einkorn, the ancestors of wheat. They look like blades of grass compared to modern wheat.

What exactly do you think domestication is? Its just selective breeding. Nothing that would be impossible to happen by chance.

Woah.......
>>
>>82956948
Yes, that is accurate.
>>
>>82957273
Look dumbass, natural selection shapes living things according selective pressure of the environment they are in.

Domestication is the act of humans creating an artificial selective pressure to shape a thing they want according to a need they have.

There is no law of nature that excludes the possibility of the existence of an environment that has the selective pressure needed for wheat to evolve.

Well, since you've obviously read that book, what does it have to say in regards to whether or not wheat is man-made?

Wow, this is a good thread.
I did not know that wheat is man made.

So you don't know whether or not that book claims that wheat is man-made?
>>
>>82954306
This just suggests that engineers brought wheat to earth and helped humans develop agriculture.
>>
>>82960873
has there ever been a more hated Hungarian?

Orban perhaps?
>>
>>82957136
Engineers created humans, but you find it hard to believe random wheat?
Don't you think it is more probable that in that case that the engineers created wheat and planted it on earth?
>>
>>82954306
Either the people who lived there, or David. Does it matter? People eat. David's hair grows, maybe he eats, too.
>>
>>82954306
not only that but why does the planet resemble Earth?

Anyone else have a problem with this? The movie looked like they were filming in New Zealand.

And to think that I actually believed the memes that wheat would play an important part in this movie...
>>
>>82961330
No, I was busy producing cummy in your moms tummy

Same way wheat spread to the Americas

Colonists shitting seeds out into the fields
>>
That's actually a solid point. What was the point of mentioning what if there are no humans settled there? God this movie was dogshit
>>
They found a nice looking location. When they got there and started filming someone realized there was wheat there and remembered that it was supposed to be an alien planet. So they added dialogue mentioning the wheat.

They wanted to give the audience a hopeful impression that maybe there's already a settlement there. But then they didn't even bother explaining why there's wheat. Plus the trailer ruined everything anyway. Basically Ridley Scott is a hack

this goddamn it
everyone treats unanswered questions like mistakes. the thing it that answering all the questions would actually make the movie worse
>>
>>82957088
If engineers were the beginning of life over 4 billion years ago the wheat would've evolved into something entirely different

just like humans weren't engineers they were humans. Our wheat would be clearly different to theirs
