>Movies.com: We had heard it was scripted that the Engineers were targeting our planet for destruction because we had crucified one of their representatives, and that Jesus Christ might have been an alien. Was that ever considered? >Ridley Scott: We definitely did, and then we thought it was a little too on the nose. But if you look at it as an “our children are misbehaving down there” scenario, there are moments where it looks like we’ve gone out of control, running around with armor and skirts, which of course would be the Roman Empire. And they were given a long run. A thousand years before their disintegration actually started to happen. And you can say, "Let's send down one more of our emissaries to see if he can stop it." Guess what? They crucified him.
But then why did it take them 2,000 years to actually kill us?

>The planet is LV223...Leviticus 22:3 >>"Say to them: 'For the generations to come, if any of your descendants is ceremonially unclean and yet comes near the sacred offerings that the Israelites consecrate to the LORD, that person must be cut off from my presence. I am the LORD. >There are so many references to Christianity in the film. It is set during Christmas (remember the Christmas tree), Elizabeth Shaw's Crucifix necklace, and then the overlaying theme of self sacrifice throughout the film.
>Christmas tree and one character wearing a crucifix means the movie has to do with Christianity

the engineers didn't kill them because they all got attacked by xenomorphs or something, weren't you paying attention?
Alexander Fisher
maybe they perceive time different and 2000 years is not that long for them..or ridley is just a hack

>yfw there are actual theories which say humans were created by mistake by one engineer who stole the black goo and put it on Earth >like the Prometheus greek myth where prometheus steals fire and creates mankind
so which is it? humans were intentionally created, or the prometheus analysis? is every idiot who thinks they "got" the film wrong?

Really? Like, they got the message "jesus is kill" and right as they prepared to come kill us, they just so happened to be over-run by xenomorphs?
They had ftl drives so time must matter to them.
