So higher beings are basically playing Starcraft with Humans, Engineers, and Xenomorphs? Epic.

*I love Scott's quote at the end, it tells me that he can really make a great story.*

So many people fall into the "Dragon Ball Z trap" where every new enemy is designed just one up the last.
At some point you end up with enemies are so powerful they could end the protagonist's world before they even know what's coming.

I go with '' Ridley Scott is crazy''.

[LORDNAG]

If he can tie in the Predators, The Trinity is complete. Predators were at war with the egineers, Engineers and predator discover the Xenophophs DNA. they use it on each other. Predators win. Predators are tribal, so they don't bother with Ruling jack sqat. Humans are good host for Xenophophs. So rest is history.

Hi all, didn't know this video would get so many views!! Take the religious connotations lightly here. Most of this is not in the movie Prometheus, and was from an interview with Ridley Scott and from an earlier script when the movie was still called alien engineers. Even Ridley said if he was this on the nose, the film would get boycotted. We do see references in Prometheus with the mission happening on xmas, shaw having a religious belief background, and with shaw getting pregnant when she normally couldnt. Some say this is a slight reference to the virgin birth. Ridley didn't want to be direct so its much more subtly done. I think he's just trying to replace gods with aliens and other alien life as the creators in the universe, he is after all a known athiest. He wouldn't be the first in scifi to try to explain the beginnings man by other means than by religious means. ....oh and guys, Predator is in an alternate universe! :) I'm NOT religious and do not offer any of my own views on religion here, this is all taken from interviews and early scripts.

the xenomorphs have to already exist when Prometheus is taking place. the space jocky's ship is thought to of crashed 2000 yrs before alien movie. but how did the xenos come about. r they natural. or engineered. did they come from the black goo or was the black goo manufactured from the xenomorphs.

in greek mythos the original gods, the titans, created many deadly monsters before they were overthrown by the olympians. the olympians killed and or locked up the titans and their monsters.

maybe the engineers are like the olympians. they overthrough their creators (titans) and captured their monsters (xenomorphs) to use for their own purposes. note that the titans created the Olympians to be similar in both form and power as themselves

and looking at the legend of Prometheus a different point of view. prometheus was a titan that survived the war. in vengeance he created humans and then returned fire to us after the olympian zeus took it away. Prometheus was severely punished for doing so.

applying this to the engineers. engineers (olympians) had a civil war or overthrough their creators (titans) which looked similar to them but probly had more technology. Prometheus survived the conflict. you can consider prometheus to be a group of engineers or their actual forerunners. this group then creates hunmans as we see in the begining of prometheus. we are created in their image, similar but weaker and slightly diff form. possibly created to eventually overthrough the olympians (egineers)

going even deeper with fire being technology. in mythos man had fire. prometheus pissed off olypians so they took our fire untill prometheus stoke it back and then got punished. so prometheus engineers created us. we thrived untill roman age. they tought us agriculture and helped create society as evidence by earth murals shown in prometheus.

speculating now: olympian engineers discover what prometheus egineers are doing and they take our fire plunging earth into dark age. conflict happens between the engineers. that happened around 2000 yrs ago. around time space jocky crashed. possibly armed conflict between engineers. maybe the prometheus egineers knew they couldnt win fight so they returned to earth to help us advance past middle ages into space age by giving us back fire (technology) and the spark of innovation. also leaving map to weapon staging area as they knew tgey wouldnt win. they got severely punished. looks like they may have killed eachother off useing black goo or xenomorphs. kind of poetic that the olympian engineers got killed off by creations of the titans that were previously killed off by their own creations. maybe some olympian egineers r still around and humans are getting ready to destroy them like we were created to do so.

Did anyone else laugh at 3:19 when the Predator popped in view for a second?

[Somewhere-in]

They need to make them all again one day with a super tight script, excellent cast and great directing. Alien and Aliens are practically perfect but be nice to see them made now with extra goodness.

[scifiexplained]

I would like to point out that Ridley only confirmed that the Xeno wasn't made by the engineers. He didn't confirm the same for humans. Also, the Alien-Covenant.com quotes about people above the engineers and all the rest did NOT reveal a source. I only mention it to start a dialogue on what may have happened.

[gobblegobble]

Ridley Scott is a genius. I've never been so fascinated with lore in movies like I am with this. He's raised some interesting questions and made some fascinating parallels to human history. I'm dying to hear the answers.

[popculture]

It seems that some engineers have been enhanced. They're not just wearing suits... their bodies are armored in a similar way to the xenomorph. So maybe they've been using black goo on themselves. Maybe that's why a Deacon comes out of this enhanced engineer... it's a combination of effects. Maybe David will later continue to experiment on creatures born from and created by black goo until he creates the perfect organism. The xenomorph.

I must say I did not enjoy Prometheus at all... but Covenant might be better.

[krystianhoover]

ridley is 2/2 imo. He is thinking bigger than anyone in sci fi, i love how he is dancing timelines its an interesting way to experience the story. Im looking forward to awakening because we should learn about the engineers motives and what happened with david and shaw. It looks like he was experimenting with her remains and creating, david is so savage!!

[dariostud]

I hate to break it to y'all but if what the video explains about the sequel's plot is true then the xenomorphs are not only related to the engineers but also to the Predators, which means that at some point Ridley Scott will also have to integrate the predators into the plot for there already was a movie where the xenomorphs battled the predators in AVP Requiem...

[ChrisDanceMusic]

The Alien franchise should've been left alone after Aliens just like T2

[shawnschroeder]

I think the evolution of this whole story has been nothing short of genius. From its humble "B" movie origins created by Dan O'bannon and Ron Schusett, Ridley Scott has woven an interesting thread of theology and nightmare. We are truly blessed as ALIEN fans to have Scott back at the helm of this franchise

[ClumzorZ]

Please don't let David be the one that made them...

[Notfast]

So there is something else higher and beyond the Engineers...Wow! this is just so fascinating.

[Kroggnagch]

I hate that Alien often gets called “a haunted house movie in space” because it is so, so much more than that.

[chikinnuggets]

Plot Twist the aliens made the engineers and the humans

[RiverSprite]

Hahaha, I love the little Predator that popped up.
