Well they were visiting us for centuries, perhaps to keep us in line?

Then they ran into trouble, couldn't get back to keep a leash on us so we progressed.

Though that defeats the whole "they've left us a map" thing.

Also- the whole DNA business at the start of the movie... WTF.


That's obviously how they seed planets. His DNA mixed with whatever was in the water, humans evolved from that.

So we were created, but there's also a touch of Darwinism involved.

I'm starting to think this is a very complex movie. :lol:

Influences? I've always thought of it as whatever species is involved.

Even though the DNA is the same I figure the difference is in the type of face hugger.


Nope. Actually it's a pretty well-known fact that the host determines what kind of Xenomorph comes out. Like the dog-alien in Alien 3, or the Predaliens.

ah ... yeah ... that's what I said.

You have seen the movie haven't you? If you did you'd understand why that theory doesn't quite work and why it may be a result of the face hugger.

Whatever it is, it's a well-documented fact that the type of facehugger is irrelevant, mostly because Queens are only ever shown producing the one kind, whereas chest bursters, when shown bursting out of something that isn't human, always has distinct characteristics of the host. Like the Predaliens.

Haven't seen the movie yet, no, but I have seen a a close-up of a Predator getting it's face hugged. The facehugger looked like any other facehugger; the chest buster most certainly did not.

This is not your typical face hugger.

It did not emerge from an egg laid by a queen, as there are no queens to lay any eggs. It was conceived the same way human babies are conceived, the father just happened to be infected with the Xeno virus.

It's impossible to state any facts about this. Storywise we're dealing with proto-facehuggers and proto-xenomorphs (I can't believe I just said those things) and the experimental nature of those facilities leave a load of options open. It's not unthinkable that those other hyves contained the more traditional Xenomorphs... Or even that this crashed spacejockeyship is the same as in Alien (sure the human corpses would decay, but where have their clothes and suits gone?).

Beyond that, Scott sorta disregards the sequels and isn't overly kind towards them. So Alien vs. Predator isn't the number 1 candidate to derive canon from.

Or this:

Also, yes it's the host that decides what the Xenomorph looks like. We've seen it in Alien 3, and we can see it with the original Xenomorph and the "details" it has on its body (mostly male and female reproductive organs).
Even ignoring the Predalien.

So far Riddley Scott has only piled hate on the Alien vs Predator movies, especially the first since at the time it came out he was working on an Alien 5, yes 5 and not a prequel, which he then cancelled due to Aliens vs Predator "being nothing but a cash-in".

K i havent seen this movie yet so i want an honest opinion

Is this movie **** or not?

will i watch it and feel the same way i did when i saw AVP 1+2?

i LOVE alien and to me Aliens and Alien 3 were fantastic.
The only thing i didnt like about Alien 3 was how the statis pods were wrong at the start of the film

Alien 4 was just awful but i did like the ending of the Special edition version were Ripley goes back to earth only to find Mankind had destroyed earth rather than the aliens she was trying to stop. I felt it was a fitting ending to the series but that the entire film itself was the most awful piece of crap i had seen in a long time

I want to see Prometheus but im worried i will feel cheated like how AVP 1+2 make you feel.
Is this actually a good film or not? does it stay close to the Alien roots?

Also does ridley scott think aliens and alien 3 are bad movies? Aliens is one of the best films ever made and the best sequal to a movie i thinks ever been made (aside from LOTD the Two Towers which comes second) i can understand why he might not like Alien 3 as that movie had trouble from the start but i do feel that the special edition version (will all the extra scenes) made up for it.

Well, it cured me of my up to that point life-long fear of the Xenomorph and awakened my interest in the series.
So I don't really hate them.

AVP was just awful....like SERIOUSLY awful...boring characters and boring begining and a plot that didnt make to much sense

AVPR was a poor film that could have been so much better - the starts fantastic but then were given what? 35 minutes of moody teenagers talking about how they dont have any sex? then 5 mins of a predator kicking alien butt in a sewer and then another 15 mins of moody teenagers - and so on and so on

The film DIDNT need those human characters who no one gave a damn about

Also Ridley scott liked Alien4? that film was just awful - wasnt it a french director who made that? the guy who made the alien queen give birth to that hybrid human+xenomorph thingy....jesus christ i hate that film

While I don't hate AVP like you do (don't worry, I know they're not the greatest of movies) you shouldn't even think about them when you go to see Prometheus.

In fact, the only movie you should be thinking about is Alien as you sit there and try to connect them together. Which, if you've read this thread, is possible, you should just limber up first before stretching.

And DM, still not quite like the face hugger in the movie. Probably about twice the size if anything and looks more like a squid.

Now that sounds interesting...If I remember right, the original version of Alien showed a "life-cycle" of the xenomorphs without a queen- basically the xenomorph made facehugger eggs out of its victims (it was cut from the final version, but was included in the extended version).

But I have yet to see the movie.

Humans travel to planet, find ship. Ship has in it's hold containers filled with a black liquid. Naughty android takes one container back to Prometheus and uses black liquid to infect scientist guy. Scientist guy has naughty sex with scientist girl. Conception happens. Gestation period is quite short. Scientist guy dies from infection, scientist girl uses medical pod in secondary ship attached to Prometheus to extract bubba Xeno and attempts to kill it. (So bubba Xeno is a product of two humans and xeno virus, not a egg)

Space jockey still lives, tries to escape in ship. Prometheus (after ejecting secondary ship which crashes) rams ship and crashes it. Space jockey survives and goes after scientist girl who is trying t-o escape. End up back at secondary ship where bubba Xeno has grown into huge face hugger and attaches it's self to space jockey who eventually gives birth to big ol Alien Xeno with a head shaped differently to traditional Alien Xenos.

ok i just watched this film online and really confused...

They find a map to this planet and all go there - Davids a robot and is generally a jerk - well considering what he did to shaw several times...

I just dont get some of things that happen

SPOILER ALERT


At the very start we see an engineer take the black ooz and he died right away and his DNA went into the water...so was that DNA ment to be what we were created from??

why does david take the ooz canister? and then why does he take 1 single drop and give it to shaws boyfriend? i just dont understand what the purpose of that was....i mean if anything how did his body come back to life and he was changed? whats that about? how did he come back to life all super human because the black ooz stuff killed the engineer at the start of the film....so whats the deal here?

Then waylens daughter dies...but the bloodline lives on? why did she have to die exactly? kinda seemed pointless

Shaw seems to be kinda nice to david near the end and he kinda seems nice to her....even tho he killed her boyfriend + wanted to freeze her with an alien creature inside of her and wanted to take the alien stuff back to earth. So why was she kinda nice to him? he clearly isnt stable and not trust worthy

The ooz snakes - what the hell were those ment to be exactly? i really dont understand what they were ment to come from. I saw those maggot type things on the floor yet im ASSUMING it was the ozz that turned them into the snake kinda creatures? or was this david again? as all the canisters had been opened....again why

The alien murial on the wall in the room with the giant face. Im confused on this because didnt WE create the alien? isnt that what its ment to be saying from the ending? yet on the wall theres a murial of a xenomorph without any exlaination and those other engineers were found with burst chests....again no explaination

she flys off in a ship at the end....what ship does she fly off in? the engineers ship is down and so is her escape pod. so which ship does she fly off in?

the last thing i dont get is that this is ANOTHER planet from the 1 in alien. Yet this doesnt explain how an engineers ship is crashed with loads of pods and an alien queen somewere on it...well unless this is gona be explained in the next film

like i said i just watched it and feel more confused if anything

Yes.

why does david take the ooz canister? and then why does he take 1 single drop and give it to shaws boyfriend? i just dont understand what the purpose of that was....i mean if anything how did his body come back to life and he was changed? whats that about? how did he come back to life all super human because the black ooz stuff killed the engineer at the start of the film....so whats the deal here?


By that stage David had a good idea of what it was. One drop was discreet and if anything, he was probably just testing to see what may happen. I doubt he fully expected the consequences.

As for the rest ... zombie ooze. :lol:

Then waylens daughter dies...but the bloodline lives on? why did she have to die exactly? kinda seemed pointless


Just because she died, doesn't mean there aren't other Weyland's out there.

Shaw seems to be kinda nice to david near the end and he kinda seems nice to her....even tho he killed her boyfriend + wanted to freeze her with an alien creature inside of her and wanted to take the alien stuff back to earth. So why was she kinda nice to him? he clearly isnt stable and not trust worthy


None of the early model androids were nice. David was executing orders and following Weyland's death, he had no other orders to follow. But again, I doubt he knew what infecting a human would do, seeing the results and dealing with his own burgeoning humanity, he obviously wanted to make sure the ooze never made it to Earth.

The ooz snakes - what the hell were those ment to be exactly? i really dont understand what they were ment to come from. I saw those maggot type things on the floor yet im ASSUMING it was the ozz that turned them into the snake kinda creatures? or was this david again? as all the canisters had been opened....again why


Once the door was opened it was exposed to a different atmosphere which caused the canisters to open. The worms may have been laying dormant and when exposed to oxygen came back to life (this isn't uncommon) and then when exposed to the ooze, mutated.

(Think Bay may have had something to do with this and it's all a set up to the next Turtle's movie?)

The alien mural on the wall in the room with the giant face. I'm confused on this because didnt WE create the alien? isn't that what its meant to be saying from the ending? yet on the wall there's a mural of a xenomorph without any explanation and those other engineers were found with burst chests....again no explanation


Only thing I can think of is it was a mural depicting what the ooze is capable of.

The engineers if you recall, were trying to escape something. Obviously things went bad and there was an outbreak.

Essentially though, we did create the alien as this can lead in to the events of the first Alien movie. Remember, as others have stated, Xenos are defined by the species that are impregnated, what we see here is the beginning of the Xeno/Human species.

she flys off in a ship at the end....what ship does she fly off in? the engineers ship is down and so is her escape pod. so which ship does she fly off in?


ummmm one of the others. That was pretty obvious. I'm sure there was another mound you can see just as they're landing the Prometheus. Plus David even says there's other ships.

the last thing i don't get is that this is ANOTHER planet from the 1 in alien. Yet this doesn't explain how an engineers ship is crashed with loads of pods and an alien queen somewhere on it...well unless this is gonna be explained in the next film


Because you're looking at it as a direct prequel to Alien. When it's not. IF they do a sequel to Prometheus I would imagine that THAT movie would be the prequel to Alien and Prometheus the prequel to that movie.

So it could potentially be a Grand-Prequel to Alien.

see thats another thing i dont get - the very start of the film...

the engineer takes the black ooz and drinks it..now im ASSUMING hes on earth. they created water and plants and rocks etc etc and then he swallows a bio-chemical that kills him and his cells go into the water

its this bit that confuses me because the engineers are on this other planet as a testing ground for a bio-weapon which ends up creating those snake thingies that kill them. SO hows this 1 guy got 1 of those ozz things on earth? and why would he drink the damn stuff knowing what happened?

They said he was heading to earth in the ship to kill everything with the chemical onboard...why? i mean 1 guy was there before them and he drank the damn stuff and went into the water...

or am i ment to assume he did this to try and kill off what they had made but it didnt quite work that way? and even if that is the case why the hell did he drink the bloody stuff and kill himself? was he to stupid to put it into the water? why kill himself?

Also how has he got that thing and hes on earth when the others are ment to be TESTING it on this other planet?

also the other dumb thing is david said - there are other ships -
ok....so doesnt that mean on these other ships other engineers would be there in stasis? why does shaw have to go look for them via the star charts when there could be others on the planet shes on? also why the hell does she want to see them? the second david said anything to 1 of them it ripped his head off and killed 3 other people....whats she gona do that they didnt? show them her breasts and say - look what evolution made?

Because it doesn't kill you, it changes you. A Space Jockey shotguns a can, melts, and then Life On Earth.

Probably by using a space ship. Because they are a space faring species. Duh.

Could be a different substance, or it could be engineered to interact with the engineers DNA to produce life.

It's when it mixes with other DNA that things go weird.

As others have said, it leaves a lot of questions but certainly sparks a good debate!

Yes, it was. I wasn't really impressed with Rapace, though.

i dunno i guess i just feel ripped off by this movie. I was looking for at least 50% of the answers but instead got hardly any

while i loved the whole atmosphere and how it felt like it was in the same line as Alien i just feel cheapend by how most of the events took place

i kinda feel the same way about this film that i did when i completed Halo2 for the first time - were the hells the rest of the game? wha? i gotta wait till another one comes out? hmmmm pretty low

i feel roughly the same way and i HOPE i dont feel the same way i did when halo 3 was done with - lame ass snuff ending

it was a good film but its almost as if RC went out of his way to make sure things did confuse and didnt make alot of sense rather than just explaining what happened. Any moron can make a story were your only told the start and then not told much else of the rest of it and make it so you fill in the holes yourself. Just felt lame
