Yeah
I just wish they gave us an idea of what the cyborg said to the "engineer". :sadcam:

Here’s how this works: the ancient language being studied by David (Michael Fassbender) is actually Proto-Indo-European (PIE), and the man giving him a hologram lesson is played by Dr. Anil Biltoo of the SOAS Language Centre in London. Dr. Biltoo is also the language consultant for the film, and he has provided a translation of David’s dialogue from his meeting with the Engineer.



The Bioscopist tracked down Dr. Biltoo, who explained that the line we hear spoken by David is really just the opening to a longer conversation between David and the Engineer, which was cut from the final film.

Here’s the line that David speaks to the Engineer, and the consultant’s translation of it:

/ida hman?m a? kja nam?tuh zd?:taha/…/gh??vah-pjorn-?ttham sas da:t? kredah/

A serviceable translation into English is:

‘This man is here because he does not want to die. He believes you can give him more life’.

I enjoyed the movie but it had it's flaws.

Namely most of the characters were poorly written and acted as plot devices rather then actual characters.

I have a feeling a directors cut will be superior.

I will say that this film made me think more and ask more questions then any other mainstream film I've seen lately. Moat movies hand the plot on a silver platter and beat you over the head with it, which I hate.
