Oh and dat shyt dat happened in da beginning. Was dat some kind of self sacrifice in order to create life on dat planet or somethin? Cuz i saw new DNA strands forming together in da water from his apparent old ones. At least dat's whay conclusion i got from it.

Movie looked great but was pretty stupid. There was literally no point to Charlize Theron's character.
I'm not familiar with the other Alien movies but what was the point of the scene with Idris name-dropping the previous owner of the accordion?
SMH @ the cheesy reveal that she was the old man's daughter. Also, she's the old guys daughter. But Fassbender calls her mother but sometimes he calls her Vickers? And Fassbender is like a son to the old guy?

Also, what the fukk was up with Elba's accent. Sometimes he sounded British but other scenes it sounded like he was trying to do a southern drawl.

Yea I mean it's like her character was there just to be a c*nt but it's pretty obvious why she was that way.
her dad didn't give a fukk about her and created the fake son instead

long read but this article tries to explain Prometheus.

i read that last night. i think its interesting but the guy that wrote it seemed kind of high on himself
it has some logical problems actually
i realized that there is no reason to actually think that the engineers wanted to destroy humans or even hated humans in any way. when david the andriod is asked to speak to the re awakned engineer we have no way of knowing what he actually said to it. judging by the way the engineer only showed any hostility after david says something to him there is reason to assume that he said something inflammatory to it to make it think it was being threatened. remember that david is who poisoned holloway with black goo, attempted to prevent shaw from removing the baby that was in her, and said it was ok to breathe in the pyramid when they came back to re awaken the engineer despite the danger of being exposed to any black goo
actually the engineers show no reason that they were even going to attack earth. there isnt anything that in any remote way even suggests that. its actually just shaw who says that they are to the crew after the engineer attacked them and they then believe what she is saying and choose to ram the engineer ship to prevent it from what they presumably think is an attack mission to earth. but there is no way to actually know that. they just assumed it from the hostility of the engineer. thats actually the only reason that even exists that shows an example of engineers not being friendly to humans. the rest of the examples show engineers visiting earth and co existing peacefully with humans. there is even a reason to think an engineer ritualistically sacrificed himself on earth just to create us.
the whole movie therefore takes a sharp turning point right when david speaks to the engineer. if you removed that event your space jesus theory or any theory that suggests engineers want to hurt humans falls apart

Movie was so so
OK brehs my 
take

first I dont think the big guys were against humans I actually think them guys was running back to earth to get away from the violent aliens. I believe this because they really hadnt done anything to make me believe they wanted to kill human . Now David or the robot guy was tired of the I'm not human tag they had put on him. He clearly said some bullshyt to the big guy because he was already on that "I thought all children wanted to see their parents dead " steeze he had his own agenda the whole time. Which is why he wanted to get back to earth I'm almost:sure he wanted to take out humans in general, I'm reaching with this but I kind of feel like he had this superiority complex and wondered why something inferior made him when he was basically better than. That's why he killed the one guy with the black shyt, didn't want to let the chick abort the baby and wanted his maker dead. Dude IMO wanted to be his own Creator of his own race

I thought it was pretty obvious David gave that shyt to Holloway just to see what would happen.

If you remember David mentions to Shaw that everyone wants to see their parents die or something. And Shaw says not me! Problem is I don't know if David was talking about God, the engineers or the old man that created him. The only thing I can come up with is David is just following the rogue android role like in the original Alien. He turns against those he is supposed to protect.
fukk I don't know...Ridley Scott better drop some fukking explanations in the director's cut.

interesting take. part of what makes this movie great is the theories. Ridley scott will eventually explain it.. I hope
Just saw it again off some free tickets for screening a movie with my girl... I really wanted this movie to be epic... there are just way too many holes & unanswered questions... it's almost like they threw in a lot of pointless backstory to makeup for a lack of there being a purpose... Idk brehs movie just felt incomplete as hell...
