F

for my hoped and dreams

>daily reminder Prometheus is a pleb filter

Why are they all bald? Are their women bald?

This

>implying they don't want to keep the engineers mysterious to the audience

prometheus ending literally has humans and david's head flying towars the engineers' home planet

They're literally white supremacist skinheads after the beta uprising that replaced the females of their species with machines and life giving goo, user.

...

They wanted to create the perfect waifu but instead they got the perfect killing machine.

that is also shaped like a dick.

>>we won't ever get a story focused on the engineer

Good. It was the worst fucking thing to ever happen to the franchise.

Literally turned it from gritty and realistic into retarded fantasy Star Wars/Star Trek bullshit.

Watched Prometheus before ever watching any of the Alien movies. Currently on Alien 3.

The Engineers are by far way more interesting than the Xenomorphs.

Is Prometheus his first name or his last name?

Wanting another movie based around the rubber engineer shlock. Fuck you OP.

Charlie Holloway: What we hoped to achieve was to meet our makers. To get answers. Why they even made us in the first place.
David: Why do you think your people made me?
Charlie Holloway: We made you because we could.
David: Can you imagine how disappointing it would be for you to hear the same thing from your creator?
Charlie Holloway: I guess it's good you can't be disappointed.

this dialogue is kinoécriture

Yes

Prometheus is miles ahead of any sci-fi alien ever created

middle

Why he did it?

we should do a master list of all the clichés in the alien franchise.

here's one , that will be in that turd of a movie:

-dude is in quarantine yells "get me outta here i will die!" .reasonable crew member says "nope or we will all die" . dude bangs in window.

>What wouldn you be willing to do to get your answers ?
>anything and everything

He was just trying to act human

Prometheus sucking ass probably didn't help

That has never happened in any of the 4 Alien movies, the AvP movies, or Prometheus

pleb status confirmed

Engineers might be the worst sci-fi idea ever, even the elephant men lore from the Aliens books was better.

I want more xeno stories

What I don't want is another boring ass slasher film

So please don't group me with people who do just because I am totally uninterested in the most unoriginal, uninspired, literally just white human aliens. Seriously, you know what, I actually WOULD take another slasher film over another Prometheus. Fucking awful.

>Typical capeshit lover

Not enough explosions for you little guy?

turbo pleb

Why did the engineers plant wheat?

Damn this is a retarded argument

>it was David not engineers

>they look exactly like us except kinda whiter and more muscley and they made a weapon that is the xenomorph.

That's it. That's their story. Literally the most interesting thing about them is how they made another more interesting species.

Describe what makes them the opposite of Plebian. I fucking dare you. Describe their depth, explain their kinoness, go for it. Do it. Explain what's great about the Engineers.

Just once I'd love for a Prometheus fan to explain what's good about it without saying "you just didn't get it" (what was there to even get? It's a movie where there's a bong built into an HEV suit for fucks sake).

So go for it, mate. Explain the depth behind the Engineers that I just didn't get.

dude kill yourself my man if you can't see the originiality and the potential of a big budget movie depicting the race that decided to create humans and then end their experience by genociding them

>Just give me generic alien kills a bunch of dumb ass space tourists pls

You're plebs. Prometheus had some problems, but it was kino. All the problems were really minor and it was a refreshing new direction, but nope, bunch of capeshit loving plebs had to meme Paradise out of existence

I enjoyed prometheus, and the whole idea of the engineers seems really cool to me. But I gotta admit they really botched the execution of the film.

I haven't watched it in years, but I just remember that it could have been so so much better than it was. If it was better, I'm positive we would actually be getting a continuation of that story.

What potential? I saw the movie and it was awful.

I already said I am uninterested in yet another slasher.

That doesn't mean I want a garbage film that destroys the franchise even further that isn't a slasher film

and while we're at it

It's hilarious you guys are acting like Prometheus isn't the same shit.. IT IS. It's still a crew dying one by one, but they die to different things than a xenomorph. Like...

ZOMBIES

HELL YEAH FUCKING ZOMBIES

PROMETHEUS IS ORIGINAL KINO

ROFL LMAO

Ridley Scott must've been on drugs when he read Damon Lindehack's garbage script.
"Oh shit the engineers are actually ancient aliens and the facial protrusion is just a mask? Excellent idea, now let's have gay sex on PCP."
Alien Covenant is supposed to be the first in a new trilogy, and we are getting at least FOUR new creatures in the movie.
It's going to be fucking brutal broggos.
It's NEOMORPH time.

Engineers were a stupid concept anyway. I could wipe my ass with a blank paper and it'd be about the same quality.

So when can we expect a script?

Their entire outlook on life and the creation of it. Here we have a society that is no longer motivated by a search for food, fuel or resources and has taken to creating life as experiments, making them godlike. Having an engineer interact with David, as a creation's creation, was very interesting. The black goo is shown to be the giver or taker of life depending on how it is interacted with, see the mural changing in Prometheus.

I'll gladly admit the design is lackluster after the space jockey tease in Alien, and using a flute to operate a vessel carrying terrorfluid is ridiculous, but the engineers are the most interesting and explorable element added to the Alien-mythology in decades.

Also, we look like them, not the other way around.

What even were the engineers? What was so interesting about them? They're aliens, and apparently they want to kill humans. That black goo shit is so clearly whatever the plot needs it to be.

Someone, please make an argument for what makes the engineers interesting, because I don't see it.

I just ate some Chipotle, so it won't be long.

>We will never get a movie documenting the Creator/Engineer Religious Civil War, the fall of the Creator faction, the Engineer's rise and purging of the lesser created races, the unintended outbreak of their bioweapons and the subsequent attack by the predators which wiped them all out, leaving the predators the supreme power of the galaxy

Awesome, will it star omar epps?

>It's hilarious you guys are acting like Prometheus isn't the same shit.. IT IS. It's still a crew dying one by one, but they die to different things than a xenomorph

That's what made the movie so much less than it could have been imo. I don't mind having the xenos stir up shit, since they are still a big part of the story.

But it should have explored more into the engineers, the creation of the xenos/humans, and possibly other creations of theirs. Possible glimpses into the engineer society or something. But it got way watered down into something plebs could easily digest

They probably end up having nothing to do with xenos, it'll be David and itll turn out he was somehow the space jockey in alien

It sounds like it still might explore the creation of Xenos, but I think the idea that the engineers created humans is stupid in the first place. I'm not sure there was a deeper well of ideas to tap there.

normies eat that shit up and normies pay the rent

Dude wheat lmoa

doesn't it say 'the start of the path to paradise' or something in the covenant trailer?
maybe they need the cash from this to make that or something

I would watch all these movies. Also having the predators thrown in at the end is destined to be kino, I'm fairly sure I've seen at least one of the alien/predator movies and they were just cheap action flicks. But having the predators go to war with the engineers to wipe out the source seems pretty epic. Granted the preds would still have to deal with the xenos who are already out there, but that's where your one off flicks come in. they are just cleaning up the engineers mess

Wanna know how I know you're not above the age of 18?

Because he has no beard?

I hope they still delve into the origins but it'll likely be way less than I would like. I wouldn't even mind if the engineers didn't create humans. just as long as they had some sort of great ability like that.

I mean we could create mutant races today, so whats to say this group of albinos didn't do experiments all over the universe or something.

The Story So Far:
>Long ago the Creators came to primal earth and seeded the water with their DNA, leading to complex life and eventually humans made in their image
>The Creators visited and fostered the primitive humans and gave them information they would need to find them in the future when humans eventually developed interstellar travel
>The Predators hunted the Creators but got their ass kicked. They eventually retreated to deep space and avoided the Creators.
>Around the year 0, the Creator's culture underwent a religious schism which resulted in a fundamental change in belief. The lesser engineered races, such as the humans, were deemed abominations by the new faction. Now dubbed the Engineers, they created advanced bioweapons and began a crusade to wipe out the lesser races of the Creators
>This bioweapon got out of control, weakening the Engineers and prompting an attack by the Predators, who almost wiped them out
>Soon after the Predators began to harvest the Xenomorphs for hunting and to test their new warriors (as seen in the AvP movies and in Predator 2)
>The Predators came to earth at some point after the fall of the Engineers and had limited contact with the people of South America who built a culture based around the example of the Predators, who were treated as gods
>Predators become the supreme power of the galaxy
>Following the events of AvP, Charles Bishop Weyland discovered the existence of a pyramid in Antarctica etc etc.
>Predators continue to hunt on earth
>Following a Xenomorph outbreak on earth during the very early years of the 21st century (AvP 2), a Predator's gun was found and presented to Mrs. Yutani
>The events of Predators happens here
>Later, Peter Weyland traveled to meet the last remaining Engineer during the events of Prometheus
>The events of Alien: Covenant happen soon after
>The Alien movies happen, etc etc.

the engineers arc literally gives the entire alien/ alien vs predator story a reason to exist. plus it ties it in to a rich and complex conspiracy structure we can already relate to...

...

just like how anyone who brings up plebit out of nowhere clearly visits the site regularly. Everyone that posts about how someone is young, is almost certainly very young themselves. pretty pathetic defense mechanism.

I'm 28

This

maybe if they could make a movie about engineers without the characters being crackheads it would be more appealing

those engineers look fucking retarded

>is 28
>thinks AvP is a cool concept

They're subterranean humanoids of immense strength. How would you make them? I thought they looked fine.

>dope feind checking in

just looks super rubbery and generic idk just my opinion. also checked.

I said predators v engineers would be a cool concept you mong.

AvP would just be a way for hollywood to keep making those flicks after the actual arc was finished.

We had to look like them because Scott likes the whole "made in muh image" connection. We aren't as strong or as intelligent as them, but we're cunning and tricky. The comics reveal that the predators think of us highly, because of how craft we are. In Predators for example, we win constantly by trickery and when we result to brute force, we always lose. Dat Russian with the bomb on his chest, the predator thought he'd just stick him and revel in the kill, but nope. Was that movie skipped by most people? It's great but never talked about...

>The comics reveal that the predators think of us highly, because of how craft we are.
thats pretty cool

ayy lemme just take this mask off while i hit dis blunt.

hope no aliums get me

AVPR ?

>subterranean
Engineers = Nonmen?
Are the Inchoroi sapient xenos?

No, Predator 3, Predators, w/e Adrien Brody
For example in that movie we learn that the stealth field is created solely by the Predator's wrist unit, because Laurence Fishburn is able to use it. It's a good movie
>you talk too loud...

>No, Predator 3, Predators, w/e Adrien Brody
oh this one. i loved it. the ending was bretty good too i think. fishburn was a fool lol. which russian bomb scene are you talking about though ?

I don't know what that is. But yes the Engineers are giant subterranean humanoids. That's why their skin is pale, their eyes are black and their ship corridors look like tunnels. They aren't artless either, despite their savagery, as they use musical keys to operate their ship

Topher Grace gets lost running out of the old driller that Larry Fishburn lives in. The big guy Russian feels bad and goes back for him. He shoots the predator but get's cornered by him and lets Topher go so he can live. The predator stabs him and lifts him but the Russian reveals a mortar on his chest. He blows it right in the predators face.

>The big guy Russian feels bad and goes back for him.
holy shit i totally forgot about him.

Oh and I also liked the implication that Adrian Brody had read Arnold's account from Predator and knew to cover himself in mud to hide.

So the preds just thought of us like a noble enemy. Like someone who would hunt a lion/tiger a couple hundred years ago?


but like this user said(if it's true)

>Following a Xenomorph outbreak on earth during the very early years of the 21st century (AvP 2), a Predator's gun was found and presented to Mrs. Yutani
>The events of Predators happens here
>Later, Peter Weyland traveled to meet the last remaining Engineer during the events of Prometheus
>The events of Alien: Covenant happen soon after
>The Alien movies happen, etc etc.

I can't keep track of these movies at all. that would be lame to me if those were the last engineers. If however we got control of the preds weapons I would certainly think they would be a little more worried about us as more than just fun sport hunting.

>5 o'clock, bitch raping time
>best line in any movie

>I can't keep track of these movies at all.
same. also checked.

If there were more Engineers they would have answered the beacon of the engineer from Prometheus, who was sitting in sleep for 2000 years.

The very definition of perfection

Maybe he was wayout as appeared to be an alien back site so would make sense. On of race picked up beacon

My thoughts exactly, and he intends to put out 6 more...

Giant bipedal elephant ayyylamos

>If there were more Engineers they would have answered the beacon of the engineer from Prometheus, who was sitting in sleep for 2000 years

unless they were already at war with the preds? idk. for whatever reason having those two master races fighting while we are in the middle of it and learn their technology and catch up seems cool to me.

like watching some european ally sit on the sidelines while two colonial powerhouses duke it out, all the while learning their ways.

Japan comes to mind.

That site was given to mankind as the place to go to find the creators, so it was once a major base of theirs. The engineers weaponized it and ruined it, but it was likely second only to paradise as a Creator/Engineer base.

The engineers largely succeeded in wiping out the lesser races, as only the humans and arcturians survived, it seems. Humans can breed with arcturians so it stand to reason they are also related to the Engineers/Creators.

Did the engineers meet predator?

A predator named Ahab seeks one out in the comics and finally finds one and gets his ass kicked. Them wiping out the original engineers 2000 years ago is my headcanon, but completely plausible until we have more info

who kicked whos ass ? the predator ?

>That site was given to mankind as the place to go to find the creators, so it was once a major base of theirs.

do we know that outside of the comics that apparently exist? has ridley scott said anything about this?

predator got his ass kicked

>We will never get a documentary about Engineer Steve Jobs who revolutionizes computing with his eflute interface.
>We will never get a documentary of the freetard Engineer who wants the goo to be free wetware

Engineers = White men = made everything - then white people decided that they need to destroy everything and the ship Prometheus with black captain and asia guy stopped them.

Is this kino?

prometheus shows the way to the planet in all discovered cave paintings with an invitation to come included in the painting
when they arrived its a launching pad for the death of earth and likely other similar worlds such as Arcturus. it's easy to infer something happened there that ruined it.

i can see the hidden propaganda now.

oh shit lol

When in the movies do we learn about the Creators?

The engineers wear suits while the creators did not. Their suits don't have gadgets like the predators but it makes them insanely resilient and strong. If I remember he beats the predators ass almost easily. It's the main reason why in my headcanon I think the predadors had to wait until the bioweapon malfunctioned to attack them, since their technology and strength is so advanced. In Prometheus David sees that they have almost unlimited knowledge of the cosmos.

first scene of Prometheus and the related deleted scenes. they dress different, act different, have different ships, even sacrifice themselves for humanity. the later engineers hate us and worship the xenomorph images on their religious murals and would never give their lives for us. I just use creators to refer to the Engineers who created and fostered us and guided us.

this guy gets it
Prometheus a shit! Looked nice and nothing more!

They became the engineers. did you not even bother reading the next 5 lines?

>This

But they're clearly the same people. If I were to dress different, act different, have different ships, then would I no longer be human?
