[@royerr-dl5ct]

yup. I feel like we're in the minority but it was the type of universe building, grand, existential storyline that I wanted. Ambitious and big. If I am honest, I kinda do think that most people are just a bit too dumb with attention spans too short to enjoy a movie like that

[@deankruse2891]

Prometheus was fantastic

[@CordellPotts]

On opening day I was 1st in line, Was super excited, in my mind it was not possible for Prometheus to be a bad film. When I left the theater I was disappointed and confused. Since then I've watched it probably about 10 times. It's not my favorite Alien film, but it is one of the best sci Fi films I've seen in the last 10yrs. I just really wish the studio hadn't messed with Covenant and we could have gotten the sequel that Scott originally wanted to make. The Engineers, David , & Shaw's story should have been continued. In hindsight, I would have gladly taken a Prometheus sequel that had absolutely zero xenos and only centered on Shaw and her search for our creators.

Bro this is amazing work thanks for continuing to push forward and find Lore.

[@dorjedriftwood2731]

He is quite talented and a great narrator but I cannot understand why Prometheus it was such a bad take on the possibility that alien hinted at. It didn’t honor the lore of the 3 main films and instead chose to make this whole genetic religion. Instead the complete impossible mystery of a being who is merged with the space craft, something beyond human understanding completely, it’s just armor. If your looking for agent aliens the Guyver series did it first and did it better. In Guyver the Aliens were also looking for biological perfect weapon. But in Guyver it is human beings who end up frightening the Aliens away when they steal the technology they were experimenting with and become a weapon so terrifying they evacuate the planet and completely lose there technology. Humans are then given the name Guyver which means “out of control” the ancient aliens who exist in that world were left behind and struggled to stay hidden and to keep their race alive. It’s then explained that all of the human lore about werewolves and other such monsters are just records of the aliens who choose to become weapons to better their grasp on power on earth. The story starts when three Guyver units of the old technology of the original alien civilization are discovered and one ends up in the hands of an ordinary highschooler who is now simultaneously hunted but more and more tasked with liberating the human race from the ancient aliens control. The series continues you learn more and more about how the ancient civilizations were basically enslaved by the aliens who left and that humans were created for the specific purpose of being adaptable slaves for these aliens. Which is a way more coherent narrative then life worshiping aliens sacrificing themselves for humanity then deciding to kill them.

[@tokinbowls]

I love the engineer storyline and your in depth coverage of it. You work really hard putting these videos together. Hopefully you'll get the recognition you deserve soon I'd love to see your channel blow up!

[@TrevorKennsworth]

Ridley Scott has no idea what he’s doing with the Alien franchise. Flip-flopping back and forth between Xenomorphs and Engineers, the former being just a regular/generic horror movie brainless monster. I wish they would’ve continued the Engineer storyline, as it was MUCH MORE compelling and actually had deeper meaning to it.

[@awesome1ru]

Well the Xenomorph is way more recognizable & Iconic and gets more casuals to watch so that's why

[@chrisfromsouthaus2735]

Completely agree. A maker "god" who despise what we have become. I think it would be fertile ground for a TV series. A media that could devote more time to exploring the Engineers, and their relationship with us, as well as their other creations.

[@TrevorKennsworth]

@@awesome1ru Says something about regular mundane citizens, enjoying brainless horror slop compared to actual thought-engaging material

[@TrevorKennsworth]

@@chrisfromsouthaus2735 I agree, there definitely should have been more focus on the engineers. I would’ve preferred them to continue with a Prometheus 2 (obviously another title). Which could focus on Shaw and David traveling toward the Engineer home world, or even another colony and trying to discover our origins

[@dearthditch]

Agreed. This would’ve been so much more if the storyline was coherent and consistent. Its been movie making over world building

[@saidakhu]

Hi Kroft. Just wanted to make sure you are aware that Prometheus fan Mark McAllister has now admitted to writing the 'early draft script' you refer to in this video (and many others). It's been known for a long time that it was a fan made script, but it's helpful to have confirmation that the guy we all suspected of being the real author actually was.

[@CharlyDavis5594]

Thanks for all the hard work in creating this content time after time. I truly believe you should be part of the screen writing process on all Alien movies to come.

[@GreyplayComics]

I like the idea of the space jockey being a race that the engineers look up to, mimicking their ways & technology meaning David's version of the xenomorphs are just another strain of the originals we haven't discovered yet.

[@piercarlosoares724]

I think this is the only good solution. Sounds way too stupid David creating the Xenos.

[@GreyplayComics]

@@piercarlosoares724 based off all given info this is likely the case, the engineers recreate a deacon's blood into the black goo which David experiments with.

[@azoniarnl3362]

I hope the focus on the alien in an alien movie. This franchise has been hijacked by engineers and David and it should stop.

[@starseeker5231]

​​@@azoniarnl3362the new alien movie is About Alien but the director confirmed it takes place in the same universe as Covenant and Prometheus, it's theorized that the planet from the Romulus trailer is Origae-6 that was mentioned in Covenant, it doesn't matter if Ridley Scott doesn't do it eventually they will have to explain the origins of the Xenomorph so even without David, the Engineers lore will eventually come back whether you like it or not, and get this Fede Alvarez the director of Romulus said he liked Prometheus and Covenant and when asked about it, he said he would like to explore more of them, so depending on how good Romulus is that's how good the next Engineers lore movie will be.

[@Crawdoodle]

@@azoniarnl3362the aliens are boring now. They’re all the same. The story has been beaten to death.

[@Donnirononon]

Another possibility is that the "engineers" are no clear cut species and just are genetically engineered workers for another alien race. This alien race disappeared leaving them behind only one specimen - the deacon. They used him to procreate as all "engieers" were originally genetically engineered. That would explain why they have similiar style but different technology.

You think it is better, David creating them? Isn't better engineers, that are true creators in the whole lore, or at least not disclosing the origin of Xenos at all?

I like the theory which describes the whole juggernaut as a giant seed (it's actually similar to the Calendula flower seed). This seed travels through the universe, finds suitable planet, cleans it up with xenomorphs or black gue, and plants itself to grow new juggernauts, which will repeat the process. Two species live in symbiosis: 1) juggernaut ship/seed with a pilot been grown just as an integral part of it; 2) xenomorphs. Both help each other to spread. Similar to what we have in nature, but on the interstellar level. The origin of how this organism could appear is another story.

[@davebear9825]

In regards to what information we have we have to be Careful of the one Script (Orange) it is likely a Fan Edit, as Lindeloff had confirmed that the other two are the only ones released out there and they lacked some of the Elements of the Orange Draft. But indeed while not supporting that Draft... Ian Whyte and Michael Fassbender did have a Longer back and Forth Conversation but we dont have the details of what was said. Daniel Twiss (Sacrificial Engineer) had learned a few lines of a Alien Language and had a small Conversation with the Elder Engineer but this was never shown... one Page from a unreleased Draft had a bit of this Dialog... but it was not as Long as the Orange Draft which is very likely to be Fan Additions.

[@saidakhu]

The Orange Draft is definitely a fan script written by Mark McAllister, the same guy who wrote the much earlier fan script that fooled aintitcoolnews among others. While many people had guessed Mark was the author of the Orange Draft based on misspellings it has in common with his earlier script, such as 'illuminous', we only got final confirmation a few weeks ago when he identified himself as the author.

The Biomechanical "Suits" seem to be part of the body. What if those engineers are the bioengineered equivalent of Droids? Doing those "jobs" that are dangerous. The sacrificial one could be a "perfect" being one created to do exactly what he did in the movie. If they lost the ability to recreate naturaly, then that could explain why they possibly do it that way. Oh and if Scott mentioned that other engineers would return to paradise, then it is possibly that the inhabitants simply assumed it was them and not a psychopathic human constructed droid.

The sacrafice engineer in the beginning, is the same actor who plays the waking space jockey at the end of the film.. so are they supposed to be the same engineer? Or completely different, but Ridley just used the same tall actor for both?

[@ROVA00]

It can’t be the same engineer because the sacrifice engineer dissolved into a river…millions of years before humans were around. It’s likely the director wanted to portray a similar looking engineer.

[@davebear9825]

The Elder Engineers were interesting, what the Idea behind them were they were just Older versions of the Sacrificial Engineer, the Engineers Aged like us only they lived for Thousands of Years. It was indicated that indeed they lost the ability to procreate Sexually. But it was indicated that they had other ways to Procreate (Clone more likely). The Sacrificial Scene was intended to show us that this is the Process of how they would Create Life and Evolve it.. using a Creation Tool (Goo, Worms, Scarabs). RS felt like the Elders scene gave away too much, which he wanted to hold back for a Sequel. He was not satisfied with how the Elders came across and said he never wanted to meet God (the God's) in the First Movie. Thus indicating that the Engineers in Prometheus where a Sub Creation of whatever RS was going to SHOW us the Elders were (or who will replace them as Promethues Engineers Creators).

Imagine if the engineers were created by an older elephantine race just continuing the cycle further back lol

[@sulanis8444]

I'm happy you said that their based on the Annunaki. It's the first thing I thought of when I saw the Engineers at the beginning of the movie. For those that don't know the story: The Annunaki came to earth from what we see called "Planet 9". or back in the day called Nibiru or Planet X. This planet has a massive elliptical orbit of thousands of years and only close to earth every 3600 of years or so. Well getting close to Earths orbit the Annunaki at the time used their primitive space ships and rocketed to earth to mine gold to fix their atmosphere. Eventually their workers rebelled and created a hybrid of primitive humans and half Annunaki. Leading to the first homo-sapiens, or modern humans today. The first humans could not re-produce and lived a Hella long time. However, they eventually changed our genome again giving us the ability to reproduce hence Adam and eve. Eventually Adam and eve stole ability to know the different between good and evil, and the wisdom of the gods getting them kicked out of Enki's Eden. Eventually the Annunaki got sick of our shit and our shellfish nature and decided it was time to wipe the slate clean and cause the great flood. Note: Gold blocks infrared and ultraviolet radiation which is why its used in a lot of space crafts and satellites today. Note 2: Astro physics today are seeing massive gravitation anomalies in our outer solar system today that conclude their must be a massive object that is causing gravity at the end of the solar system to go nuts. Note3: Scientist over in iraq area found a layer in the soil that would prove their was a massive flood about 12 thousand years ago, but limited to the area. u.osu.edu/vanzandt/2019/03/01/zecharia-sitchin-and-our-alien-anecestors/comment-page-1/ Also a quick thing: I posted in another one of Kroft video's about those aliens that David destroyed point for point, so its amazing to see on the screen as well :D Those aliens if created the way we were would evolve the same way we did to survive earth. There skin color, heights, movements and eye color would all evolve over time to fit the environment they live.

[@sheehase]

That's just a hobbling of fifteen different religions translated to English. Annunaki are from a older book of Jewish faith, known as the books of Enoch. ANU, is a word for the one God of Sumeria, just....stop okay. Take a few religion/history/philosophy classes before you ever talk again

At 8:23 the arrow points to "two elder engineers" but what about all the other ones in the background?

[@phrayzar]

Pre re-marketing of the the Alien Franchise within a film platform, the original space jockey was much more enigmatic, and I think much more outreaching and innovative in concept. The information given, and the knowledge that we have about the xenomorphs to this point( and lets remember that this just a film) suggest that they mimic/combine with their last host to assist them in adapting to their new environment. A great survival mechanism. I always supposed that the original very large "space jockey" was somehow part of a species that adapted their form to meet their needs as they arose, or were somehow genetically engineered to meet a particular task. Now let's look at a scenario where the space jockey and the ship are one, it appears that the jockey is part and parcel of the ship itself. This entire "ship" is an adaptation that arose for space travel, much like ant/termite alates have wings that assist in a particular task, reproduction, this species needs the juggonaught/jockey to achieve space travel, hence the continuity of the biomechanical appearance of the entire ship. It's organic, an entity that has a specific task. Now add this biomechanics entemogical type into the xenomorphs pool and you get the Xenomorph that we now know. I thought that the whole shrinking of the jockey and the other blatant changes of the Alien lore to create these increasingly inferior films cheapened and drastically minimised some very grand and innovative concepts from the original film. Seemed like a Groundhog Day of action drama cliches in the end.

[@perceivedvelocity9914]

I'm sure that other people have speculated about the Engineer's space ships in the past but I haven't seen that yet. I think that there are definitely (at least) two engineer factions based on their space ship designs. The faction that creates life has a space ship that is a round disc. The faction that destroys life has a space ship that is shaped like the letter C. The inside of a C is a round disc. Also, the two different space ships are made out of a different materials. That is probably representative of their different ideology.

Hope Ridley Scott gets to complete the story he has envisioned in his mind as I liked both Prometheus and Alien: Covenant. I loved how they are prequels, yet not really at all; being stories told in the same universe just a bit earlier in history. It is clear to me that the derelict ship on LV-426 came from the same event depicted holographically on LV-223 (during Prometheus), so the Xenomorph eggs found in Alien and again by Newt's parents in Aliens, were deposited by Xenomorphs as created by the Engineers. I am curious to see what David does with his variant of Xenomorphs, naturally he would build a hive out of the colonists at the colony they are supposed to be making on Oregai 6, but we may never know.
