Engineer from planet ??? Prometheus investigates the origins of life.
I ask a friend of mine to explain in his mind what the Film Prometheus was all about. (I made the image in Art Rage)
Its not an Alien film - thats the point, it takes place in the Alien universe but its not an Alien film. And yet its very "Alien" - which I loved.
Here is his view and interesting indeed.
The Engineers created us - they create life. This is the guy at the beginning.We come from their dna. Again, I love the "if they are the creators - who created them?"aspect - its questioning religion and our beliefs - if we have a God & one day we find him- who created him? And into infinity we go...
They created life, we dont know why - but it bit them on the arse & they created a monster- was that us or the alien? On that planet they were experimenting with creating life - but theyall died - it questions us as a species, as we get more technologically advanced & clone animalsetc are we playing God? We are God to someone or something as well - when we create life weare playing God & it will bite us on the arse as well - we are them as we come from their dna.They decided we must die - our species must be stopped. There must have been a war ora reason why they were creating life / bioweapons on that planet. There may not have been a reason- they do it because they can - like us. Or, they realised we will inevitably destroy everything we touch- like they did - hence, we must die.
So that planet is left alone for 200 years (these creatures evolve over 200 years) & then suddenly we land there in Alien& the shit starts. I love that the Alien comes from us & them (the engineers) - it was our dna that made them.
Inky was a pre-evolutionary facehugger. Those creatures in the "Earth Room" come from worms - did you seethem? They had specimens of life from Earth there...
We also dont know if that guy is Weyland - we just know he is rich & part of Weyland Corp.
