If these Engineers are so evolved, why are they so violently? You would think that they would have some curiosity about their creation having the ability to reach them millions of light years away. Instead, he rips one guys head off and crushes another, then kills a couple more. I would say he’s having a bad hair day, but he hasn’t got any so maybe he just got up on the wrong side of the bed.

I hope not, this script confirms how bad the idea behind all this was. Jesus, seriously ? How original. The idea of sending only one guy to "educate" others is so stupid and pathetic. These Engineers seem to be very stupid, why not educate the first humans and if they did, why expect better results with just one "educated" guy. I already see so many implausibilities without even giving second thoughts, I don't see how this story would not en up ridiculed even more by the fans.

It is Sumerian. I was working on a script about the Annunaki and accidentally ran into the head FX artist of "Prometheus" outside of a bar, because I jokingly wanted a fire for my cigarette and asked him "Do You Have Prometheus?" So you can imagine his surprise. He told me about the movie (more so than his disclosure agreement probably allowed him) and he explained that in the movie they were using the Sumerians as the original people who were contacted by ETs.

You know... most non-believers don't care if an original work has religious tones, symbolism and the like in it. It's first when someone takes something that doesn't have religion in it and adds it. Prometheus was an original work with some religious undertones, but it didn't change anything of the original Aliens trilogy. It didn't take a beloved character who had no religious disposition and made him/her into a religious zealot out of the blue. If they took the original Alien movie and made Ripley a christian fanatic, that would piss of non-believers. Besides, most non-believers don't get offended that easily. Annoyed perhaps.

@@haveyouseenhertellmehaveyo7147 The "mistranslations" narrative has been firmly disproved by scholarship. They have enough scholarly evidence and manuscripts to affirm the validity of the Bible we have today and this has been the case for at least a decade or two now. The Annunaki narrative is also extremely false if you understand the actual mythology and not the misrepresentation that the Ancient Aliens crowd and stuff puts out. Ergo, the Annunaki and the igigi have been heavily switched up due to later eras taking the lower igigi and raising them above the seven Annunaki (seven is interesting because that mirrors the archangles) at some point in history. The Annunaki (the archangels, I believe), for example, never reproduced with men. Despite the fact that the text idicates that, the name of the igigi actually carries the suggestion of sexual penetration; so the movement of the igigi to a higher status and the lowering of the Annunaki to underworld deities later on in the mythology mixed up the story. (They don't tell you this on Ancient Aliens etc.) The demotion of the Annunaki being overthrown by the Igigi is incredibly suspect, given that the Igigi by name were the ones who created the viscious nephilim that terrorized mankind in the Bible, also being the ones who would therefore be the parents of demigods and this the long line of tyrannical emperors and kings that have dominated human beings from Sumer to Egypt to Asia to recent Europe, apparently. It's almost unmistakable to see that the Annunaki were smeared to make the Igigi, and their children and their nations, look righteous to humanity. Even the identification of Satan with Enki is a smear campaign because Enki and Enlil weren't opposed to one another. I think this is the probably just the first manifestation of the Gabriel smearing that we see in modern art, where Gabriel is always made out to be the bad guy by pagans, for some reason, and always in opposition to Michael. Which is weird as hell when you consider than Michael is the one who is most depicted as fighting Satan in conflicts. Satan was more than likely a member of the Igigi (the watchers,which is another meanning present within the name, or you could see them as the non-arch-angels). In which case, the pagan attempt to identify him with Enki, and then subsequently making Enki out to be the creator of mankind, can all be understand by the nature of Satan's use of deception. It's one very convoluted smear campaign designed to hide the ways of Satan and the Igigi. The tactic is replicated in an all of paganism but is best seen in the religions that directly respond to Christ's victory through the cross, such as Gnosticism and Islam. Everything is so extremely reversed and flipped and criss-crossed in those religions that I consider them to be direct, modern versions of the Igigi deception. (Also, the black community has become notably worse since it abandonded Christianity in the 60's to follow liberalism than it was when it was trying to be faithful.)

The engineers tried to use the blood without realizing they could never "banish the wolf" within it.(Quote from covenant) The blood would always be a wolf at its core and it would always try to break free of its genetic prison - as evident by all the xeno mutations we have seen. This means the true origin of the xeno existed before the engineers and what we have seen in the movies so far may not be its true form, as it was corrupted/altered by the engineers. Further extrapolation - If the engineers used this dna to spawn Earth life...then we also came from it and we have parts of the "wolf" in us. It could be a link to the biblical notion that Mankind is "born with sin" - Perhaps why they wanted to destroy us.

Having worked in the film industry....I can guarantee you that the studio and those who fund the film played a huge role in forcing Ridley Scott's hand. Much like they did with Covenant. Ridley had a completely different trajectory to take these movies but at the end of the day...the studios have the final say and are only looking at the bottom line. They dont care if the story is complete or well fleshed out...they want to get the greatest return on their investment while keeping costs down. Sadly this and other franchises will continue to suffer from this very same thing. The only way Ridley Scott could ever truly tell the story he wants is if he funded the entire film himself which will never happen.

AmericanPewDiePie if any of these details are actually legit, which was in no way confirmed by this video. This easily could have been a fanfic rewrite to fill the holes in Prometheus. In fact, I strongly believe it is, since its pretty much too perfect. It answers ALL the unanswered questions of Prometheus, and you think the filmmakers just happened to have a script with all the answers and took them out? For what reason? Just to be vague? It makes no sense. This “script” appears to have been created EXPLICITLY answer EVERY unanswered question in Prometheus: if it’s too good to be true, guess what?

i found this too as real inspiration: check out The Origin of Evil Spirits: The Reception of Genesis 6:1-4 in Early Jewish Literature - "The Rebellion Motifin the Book of Watchers". in short, giants asked God for eternal/prolong their life, he said no and they were punished that after their dead out of their corpses arised evil spirits. similar theme to aliens from corpses of engineers.

Toni Larios ridley scott is burnt out and attempts to regain his glory days by chopping up scripts. He does this to create "mystery" because he knows sci-fi nerds think mystery adds depth. In reality, he is just recycling the same old crap. Prometheus, once explained properly, is the only decent movie since Alien. If people realized he is completely out of ideas, it might force him to create something new......

Really bizarre that these details weren't included in the fim. It's no exaggeration to say that Prometheus just doesn't make sense without them. Also - since we don't know where the original, presumably peaceful, deacon came from, ie. how it came to be born from an engineer and then worshipped _by_ the engineers - it reinserts the central mystery of the Alien franchise; which is: where do the xenos come from? In this script it shows us that the engineers didn't create the deacon, didn't create aliens. Neither did David. The deacon was just something that came from an engineer being 'infected' by some kind of life force. The origin of that 'life force' is a mystery, and mystery is the whole reason why Alien's mythos was interesting in the first place. Thus we no longer have the(IMO really disappointing) plot point from Prometheus and Covenant where the xenos just turn out to be experiments. It turns out that we have no idea where they originally came from, or rather where their 'ancestors' came from. They could do a lot worse than making this script canon.

@@illanellinor Oh definitely, I think it would be very clunky. I wasn't suggesting they add this backstory into the films in the future, in a montage or something...but they could accept it as canon and build on it, reference it. The single most transfixing image in the entire film series in my opinion is the shot of the space jockey. The mystery surrounding that, and the question of how the xenos arose, was always the element that elevated the series(I hate saying 'franchise') above other genre films. It had an enigmatic quality that no other film of its kind had. And Scott, for some reason, thought that the audience wanted definite, black and white answers to the provenance of the aliens, and the question of what the space jockey was, and so we got Prometheus and Covenant. But audiences _don't_ really want clearcut resolution...what we want is for the mystery to be expanded upon. That's difficult to do, it's a fine line to walk, but it's much more enjoyable than just saying 'well, the aliens were basically things that a psycho robot made for fun because it was fucked in the head'. The TV series The Leftovers understood this really well - it never quite resolved the central mystery, it just built on it with each passing season - and Lindelof wrote that along with Prometheus. So he certainly knows how to walk that line between revealing too much and not revealing enough. I think there was a big clash between Lindelof's original script - which we can see here was very careful about preserving the mystery - and Scott's direction, which pulled that script to pieces and didn't seem to care too much about preserving any sense of the unknown.

@@illanellinor No need to apologise. You seem like you're one of those people like me, who when they start writing find it hard to stop. The whole plotline is such a tangled mess by now, and like I said it feels like no-one quite knows what to do with it. From what I've seen in this video Lindelof's reference to deeper mysteries, his reference to the origin of the 'good' deacon, was pretty elegantly written: it answered some questions but asked a whole bunch of new ones. But Scott seems to have taken a hacksaw to the script and as a result I watched Prometheus and didn't have a clue what was going on. And with covenant he seems to have kind of signaled that he's not interested in writing those grand, philosophical, Prometheus-y kinds of films any more. Which would be fine if the characters in Covenant weren't so consistently dumb, and if it hadn't torn the heart out of the series' central mystery by placing the origin of the Aliens in the hands of David and ignoring the question of the black goo itself, which is a much more tantalising question. It's a good film in so many ways, and the neomorph is terrifying. And David is the star of the film imo, a total scene stealer. But the human characters are so unbelievably dumb throughout that it breaks the credibility of the plot. ...Having said all that I'll still keep watching these films so long as they're not actively bad. The xeno has fascinated/terrified me ever since I first saw it as a kid(I watched the first film w/ my dad when I was seven or something and it's haunted my dreams ever since then) and Ridley Scott still knows how to keep you watching. And I rewatch the last two films just for their high points. tl;dr: Basically, all I want from future films is that they start putting some of the original mystery back into the film.

@@illanellinor Really? You don't find them at all scary? I think they're the most terrifying 'monsters' in cinema history. That doesn't mean I can't appreciate the design, because I can. That's what fascinates me the most. They are sleek and...not beautiful, that's not the right word, but perhaps...'elegant'. Efficient. Like a frighteningly pure, powerful car, or piece of machinery, honed for a particular purpose. The purpose they're honed for in the film is to kill, so it's said from the start...but the other purpose, the _real_ purpose, the purpose that really inspires their design, is to frighten. It's to tap into the most primal reasons why humans fear things. That is why we never see its eyes(even though technically you can see the sockets in some shots). There is nothing more unnerving than not being able to see a person's eyes. And it breaks one of the main rules of horror: the rule that once you see the creature it's no longer scary. That's not the case with the Xeno. Once you see it...it's even more frightening. And it's also awe-inspiring too. It's not something that makes you disgusted, like The Thing. It attacks a much deeper part of your mind. It triggers much deeper emotions than something as cheap and lazy as disgust. It's easy to disgust viewers. It's much harder to do what the alien does to the viewer - which is both chill their blood and fascinate them at the same time. Re. Giger, I first saw his work in Alien but when I was at art school a friend had a huge book of his stuff - and some of the stuff in it was monumentally fucked-up... His stuff is very aesthetically elegant, very ornate. Like cyber-baroque or something. It always freaked me out as a kid. He obviously has some kind of handle on how to disturb the human mind. I remember the scene in Alien 4, where Ripley is exploring the lab with the previous clones in it. I think that might be the single most disturbing scene in any film I've ever seen, and I think all of that is Giger let loose. That scene was completely mental. Giger was a very strange guy. I'd struggle to ever say his work is beautiful but there is something fascinating about it. Disturbing on a deep level. Not cheaply disgusting, not simple shock value; something more than that. Whatever that 'that' is, it's what makes the Xenomorph so fascinating.

@@illanellinor I have played Isolation. I really stuck with it, and it's a superb game, but it's the only game I've ever played where it was just too stressful to be fun. It is so nerve-wracking. So I never finished it. It's an incredible looking game though. It's a great achievement, I'm just not sure it's that enjoyable to play. Interesting comments about the neomorph. You're right, they do display a kind of...curiosity...about the world, that the xenomorph doesn't. They're more like the hybrid from the end of Alien 4 in that respect. They are a more sophisticated, subtle version of that(underrated IMO) creature. My sense was that they were meant to be more childlike than the xenomorphs. I'm not sure they're more intelligent than the xenos - I think that they're less focused, more capricious. They have that frightening characteristic where you're not sure what they're going to do. That's the childlike aspect - like the toddler who's either going to hug the kitten...or throw it out of a window. I think that's what makes the neomorph scary. I very much liked(maybe like is the wrong word, but I found it illuminating) your allusion to anorexia in the design of the neos. I hadn't considered it at all, but it's evident now I think about it. Especially when you see it shivering and clucking, with its head downturned and its arms down and behind its sides. Like it's ashamed of its own body. It's also just occurred to me that they're birthed by being puked out of one of the crew members too. Might be a reference to bulimia. This is why I find these films so fascinating - because these creatures are so layered and Freudian. The neomorphs were very, very successful additions to the Alien menagerie.
