Interesting take

That was my immediate thought…

@@Digalog They're something between the Engineers and humans. A while back, I thought that the Engineers were somehow trying to overcome their own inability to procreate, but they may also be interested in using the species they create as workers, or soldiers. When Shaw got into a fight with the Engineer, he seemed unreasonably angry. Almost as if he saw humans as weeds, that were never supposed to leave earth or overtake the level of development that their creators had planned. When David was studying the Engineers, he might have found the planet that they visited more than any others.

@@CC-hx5fz This kind of works if the Plot was the same as when we had Prometheus... as in maybe we was Created as a attempt to try and kick start their ability to procreate. Once they had achieved this (say assume with Human Females) the Engineers would NOT need us.. but maybe they decided to Subjecate us... but we became Rebellious.. hence our intended Destruction. Then in this case the Planet 4 Engineers could be seen as the results after Generations of using Human Females... but this is not the actual case. Regarding Dr Shaw the Engineer seemed intrigued by Dr Shaw and in the extended Scene/Cut Scene he only got Angry when Dr Shaw attacked him First and then he was like Toying with her rather than attempting to Kill her, even seeming similar to when David attacked Daniels in AC... so yeah looking at that the Engineers could have a interest in Human Females. RS said that the Engineers were like the Fallen Angels and so Genesis 6 could be at play... well could have if we had the uncut and original scenes

Now my official head cannon.

Right? If everyone already knew that Disney was gonna buy out 20th century Fox, he should've just flipped them the bird and did what he wanted to anyway. They wouldn't have seen the end result until the movie was finished so it's not like they really could've done anything anyway

​@@generaleerelativity9524Hollywood doesn't work that way. A director doesn't have unlimited control. Scott couldn't just make anything he wants. He could shoot scenes but the studio controls the final edit and they wouldn't create the digital special effects required to complete a movie like this.

people hated his two films that time and they didnt made enough money , so him and studio axed it

@@evilalex87 Well Prometheus did make 400 million and for an R-Rated sci-fi horror movie that wasn't bad. But it was very polarizing and Fox had concerns about whether a sequel in the same vain would only have more diminishing returns.

Wasn't really his fault and Ridley doesn't have control of the budget he is allotted. Make no mistake, I think Ridley Scott has a decent amount of pull in Hollywood, but he's always come across as a negotiator with the studios. I do think he should have stood fast though on his original sequel plans though. He shouldn't have given in, but to be fair the project was going through development hell. It seemed maybe he thought Alien Covenant was the way to appease both sides.

I've just rewatched Blade Runner 2049 and appreciate even more how Dennis fully understood the original and took it to a whole new level with so much depth, such a master piece in so many levels, the story, script, acting, cinematography... Now I wonder what he could do with the Prometheus/Engineers world

lel please @@matucamatchola2565

Agreed. I'm tired of the olé catch them and kill them horror movies. I wish Ridley would make a movie as mysterious and original as the very first Alien movie but, that it answers a lot of the questions millions of us fans have about the Engineers, the Space Jockey, and their home world, the Deacon etc. How about a serious movie for the serious Alien fans who a lot are now up in age and in their mid 50's like myself since the first Alien movie in 1979. Listen its become a bit much to watch xenomorphs running and catching humans and killing them with ease. Enough of that silly horror and lets get back to some real adult Si-Fi

When I found out he was working on Dune, I was so happy, because I knew the best sci-fi story ever written, would be filmed the RIGHT WAY!!! ❤ Such a great director!!! Absolutely one of the best when it comes to sci-fi....

​@@apacheizm23Right!?! Imagine a H.B.O series.Let them do for Alien, what they did for Game of Thrones...🤯💪

Yesssssssss

Agreed, the xenomorph appeal as rhe main antagonist has lost its appeal and having a perverted AI taking its place seems way more interesting at this point. Looking forward to Convenant's sequel hard!

@@jonascastejon5888it’s not a sequel to covenant.. it’s a soft reboot and takes place between the first and second alien movies.

@@jonascastejon5888 Quite the opposite. The decision to use the idea of AI rebelling is what sounded cliché. This already happened in the first film in the franchise and is a tiring topic, going through Terminator and The Matrix. In fact, he missed the opportunity by not even making Covenant. He could have let Elizabeth Shaw go to the Engineers constellation and perhaps return to the Earth of the future, finding an older Ripley fighting the Xenomorphs at home! And this would be possible due to the space warp technology that they would already have allowing them to reach Earth in the future.

Totally agree. Xenos are cool but done to death with little room for manoeuvre. The Engineers are fascinating and have so much potential. What can we say, the viewership and critics are a fickle lot. We may never get to see the Engineers fleshed out.

The Alien TV show will dig the grave and the next movie installment will shoot the Alien franchise. I liked Prometheus but the back and forth between prometheus and non prometheus in Covenant really did no good to the franchise. I felt like it is okay the the two are different (alien and prometheus) but i really dont see a big engineer movie coming up because old school alien fanatics will be angry.

@@DonnironononI hate how we can’t get anything interesting anymore because a rabid fanbase will throw an online fit if the movie isn’t exactly what their camp wants. In the end no one gets what they want.

Will there be another prometheus movie ?

Amazing

3 hours and ONLY about the Engineers. That would be the best sci-fi film in history imho.

@@mrthanos8140same time they got the simpsons.

I disagree completely. I think it's very clear they made these people a distinct race who just happens to also be bald and light skinned. There are no indications that they're engineers (Robes? Seriously? Like humans never wore robes?). They're just another population that Engineers created just like they created humans.

You see in the interview R. Scott had specific plans. Also, Star Wars was two generations ago. Today filmmakers ALWAYS are thinking in sequels and series because that's where the money is. Star Wars (and Alien) were risky experiments that paid off. Now, once you know you have potential for series, everyone involved in the cinema food chain is hoping for a cash cow they can milk across a zillion sequels and spin offs. Basic economics.

It's not as black and white, imo. Sure sometimes storylines are altered, but it's often due to different directors, pressure from producer ect... And some things are also left to the imagination. The kiss between Luke and Leia is totally plausible as the two didn't know each other att., plus she only did it to annoy Han, obviously :)

exactly sometimes the curtains are just blue.

You clearly underestimate Ridley Scott, and don't know much about him.

yup

Thanks!!

Gotta keep posting videos to make money..

Blocked this channel for the clickbait. GJ

I also think there's a rebel faction of the super engineers because they never finished off Earth as was so heavily implied as their goal in Prometheus. What happened on LV223 was that a rebel faction of 'super' Engineers took control of the goo weapons and planned to kill wipe out Earthlings, but their plan was sacked by an outbreak, likely a non-rebel engineer. That would explain why no one ever came to finish off Earth, and why the site was abandoned, sort of like Cherynobl.

or they are from a higher caste that includes the engineers that have lived for hundreds of thousands of years

That makes sense. The military types have been engineered to be sterile to control their numbers because they are larger and dangerous.

@@gravelpit5680 Well you have to think how did the Engineers get infected, as the Space Jockey suits must be like Bio-Hazard Suits.. and how come just the One Survived. If we look at the Full Scenes and Cut Scenes of that Engineer you do get the impression that he maybe Sabotaged the Mission. But upon being woken up and seeing how Weyland behaved and realizing that not only have we been able to Traverse the Stars, but we have Created a Sub Creation that can Understand and use the Engineers Technology. The Engineer had no choice but to carry on with the Mission to eradicate us.

@davebear9825 The space jockey suit, if you're referring to the 1979 film, is simply a cockpit cryo chamber that envelopes the pilot. That's what we saw in 1979 despite dialougue that speculated about fossilzation. It's left very vague. The space jockey was an engineer just like the surviving engineer on LV223. The surviving engineer on Prometheus was a rebel faction member who wanted to destroy Earth with his counterparts, he just happened to enter cryosleep before the outbreak wiped out his team and locked him there. The (good) engineer who is responsible for the outbreak that happened on LV223 circa 50 AD likely died in that outbreak, perhaps one of the many in the hallway. My thesis is simple, a small group of military guys amidst the broader engineer military decided to rebel and kill earth. Their plan would have succeeded if it hadn't been sacked by the black goo. Afterward, the site was abandoned by the engineer military as it posed too much risk to clean up. They didnt know a rebel engineer was still there. That is my takeaway from Prometheus because if the broader majority of Engineers wanted to wipe out Earth, they'd of finished the job. They never did, and I think that says alot. I was hoping to get clarity on that in Covenant but it doesn't clear up the matter.

They can still go into the past of the planet. But also with multiple planets I doubt Engineers are killed off completely.

What?! Why?!

Sadly this is True.... he is involved with the Movie, and some input with the TV series. Sadly the Planned 2-3 Sequels to Alien Covenant will never Happen. It seems like RS has given up with getting the kind of Vision he had. More likely he be more invested in a Blade Runner 3.. if it ever Happens

@@davebear9825Blade Runner 3 is confirmed in the works tho but it’s a show

@@BabyKobeeee Hopefully we will see it... I heard that RS was going to be involved in it... and it would seem his time would be more devoted to this than the Alien Franchise

Ridley just finished a movie. He probably has a couple more in him. However I doubt he'll ever finish the preTrilogy, it's a thankless job.. worse really... all these MFers who endless talk trash about Prom and Cov, no director or especially no Producer will put up capital again to finish that amazing story. Thanks AntiFans... they are truly loathsome idiots

That’s a good point. Imagine Joe Biden making a movie? No thank you.

I thought some 9f the engineers on earth had rough skin as well.

Also their pupils aren't as big as the Engineers'.

that was my general assumption too. Like think of even here on Earth, we have areas that are very technologically advanced with people who are bigger, stronger, much more knowledgeable and skilled in all the sciences, and others where people still look, talk and live like they did hundreds or even thousands of years ago It's also possible that it's a Lord Of Light kind of situation, where the less advanced civilisation on that planet view them as gods

Makes sense to me. Why would the planet-beings have to look exactly like the Pioneer/Warrior-caste Engineers Prometheus encountered earlier? Maybe they drifted genetically, maybe they regretted their earlier choices as a species and deliberately altered their genome to conceal their origins?

saved me from typing it

Plus the goo doesn't seem like an exact science

they're even not look as engineers, but more like human stylish

The thing to remember is that the Plot was about these Engineers had Seeded/Created us... they came back to Evolve us Genetically and Technological wise ( to a Certain Level) and so its assumed a lot of the knowledge to Built many of our Ancient Structures and Buildings... if the Engineers are the ones passing this knowledge on, then YES, it could be that their Architecture is similar. But Planet 4 has Technology, it has a Hanger and Juggernauts and the Border Control Docking Ship... littered around the City is Technology and some Buildings look more Modern.

i believe they are sub-species of engineers

@@davebear9825 It did always bug me though when people who weren't even that familiar with the movies would swear that was the engineer planet... I always though to myself no way, it would be way more advanced looking than that. Not to mention the eyes, and their height.

I completely agree. He's too drunk

Stop explaining things for what❓ So that the audience can remain ignorant❓ That makes no sense.

@@Preus-by8ru Pretty sure none of his 'explanations' for things, especially in Covenant did that world any favors. I'd rather Covenant not have happened, to be honest.

@@MirrorReaper1 True, it didn't feel like a proper sequel to prometheus.

The interview is from 2017. It's not exactly recent.

me too

Even the better alternative, Raised by Wolves, failed.

I mean it was clear that the second movie wasn't meant to be scifi but rather back to mindless shooting gore like aliens. Haha.. I think the 3rd movie will go full alien and minimal sci fi ..

Part of the problem was having Damon Lindelof on board for Prometheus. He has a bit of a track record for building stories with weak or incoherent conclusions. Scott's golden years were late 70's through to early 90's at best. He had a few hits here and there but he's no Alfred Hitchcock or Christopher Nolan. I think people over-analyze his stories when in reality, Prometheus and Covenant were pretty awful and kind of weakened the Xeno mythos.

That's exactly what I was thinking. They didn't make their eyes black, and they didn't care about how tall the corpses were, because they didn't think anyone would notice. The city isn't very Giger-inspired because he died three years earlier etc.

You forgot about the gay kiss scene between two gay androids. Why!!! Don’t forget about the CGI alien I mean that guess they didn’t have the budget to make it appear real with suits similar to the 1986 film.

That was my first thought

110-120 might be the maximum age with current tech and knowledge, so maybe ten to twenty.

Back then, there was mystery behind the backstory of the alien and juggernaut, which left a gaping hole that fans filled for decades with complex theories. For the reveal to be this much simpler almost like a retcon is bound to be underwhelming to hardcore fans

IMO Prometheus was a great movie. I don't believe that xenomorphs are necessary to make a great Alien movie. That being said, I would say that Covenant was about as good as Alien resurrection with Alien, Aliens and Alien 3 all being better than Covenant and Resurrection. Another thing that I would like more of would be the sound design. I believe that Alien is the best movie out of them all, because of the sound design. The sound design helped give a feeling of isolation. I wish more movies today would spend more time on the sound design.

Well from Conception the Engineers had gone through some changes. At the Time of working on the Story. The idea was the Engineers were once like Humans, but over time they had Evolved both Technological and Genetically, to the point they would live for many Thousands of Years. They had began to Shun things like the Arts, Music, and other forms of Entertainment for the most part. They also abandoned Sexually Procreation and adopted a more Simple and Ritual kind of Life. At some point they had Advanced to be able to see and interact beyond the Physical Realm that we can only see. They had also Arrived at a point where they became Sterile and so could not Procreate. They had at some point in their History created and Evolved our Ancestors. They had nurtured us and taught us knowledge to a Certain level. Then they had thought they were on the Verge of achieving a Transcendence beyond their Physical Bodys.. They hoped to achieve this kind of Immortality and then would leave behind all their Knowledge for us to inherent. At some point we became Problematic and so they devised a Plan to Solve this problem.

PART2 By the time we got to Prometheus the basics to that Plot remained. We are dealing with a Genetically Enhanced Ancient Race, who Seed/Create Life on Various Worlds. One of these being Earth. These Engineers would come to Evolve us Genetically and Technologically. Until at a certain time we had began to behave in ways that offended them and went against their Values and how they wanted us to Act. They sent down Emissaries to try and get us back on Track, but we still never Changed, even indicated that we killed some of these Emissaries. And so the Engineers began to Create something to Eradicate us. After Prometheus there was some Cuts, and one was the Elders scene as on one hand they was not something RS was Happy with. And he felt that the Elders scene gave away too much. He also did not want to meet God in the first Movie. He indicated that the Engineers on LV-223 where NOT the God's and they were more like Fallen Angels. Those on LV-223 were like the Military and the opening Scene the Seeders. When working on a Sequel he claimed that the Engineers were not God, and he likened them to the Fallen Angels from the Paradise Lost Fable. Where he felt that the Fallen Angels had the most Fun in that Tale.. he claimed that you had one Guy who was Handsome had all the Girls while another was Not as Handsome and stayed at Home. This could indicate that the Prometheus Engineers are the Handsome ones.. While whoever is on Paradise would not be as Handsome and stayed at Home.. not doing anything exciting.

PART 3 by the time we got to Alien Covenant. Ridley Scott had indicated that the Beings on Planet 4 were indeed the Engineers, even saying that they were the Original Engineers who live for about 150 Years. He said that the Engineers were not a Race, but a Civilization and as Humans can Vary (Continent to Continent) why can't the same be for the Engineers. He indicated that the Prometheus Engineers were like the Military Types. He indicated that the Hall of Heads Room where the Wise Men, the Disciples/Apostles of their Race and Superior Beings (Superior to who?). It was shown that the Engineers on Planet 4, lived a more Simple Life like Amish people but they had Technology but only used it for Specific Reasons. The Engineers on Planet 4 had Females and Infants etc. Ridley Scott after Alien Covenant had confirmed that the Engineers are not all Gone. And that some will return to Planet 4 and Discover what has happened and will be out for the Culprits. On a side note, he mentioned about Creation and A.I does not have to be Synthetic/Robotic but can be Organic and he saw the Replicants as A.I. It seems like the Prometheus Engineers are Genetically Enhanced Super Engineers used for Certain Purposes.

One of many planets. The difference in biology and technology clearly indicates 2 different species. The engineers seeded many worlds because their own race was dying out so they were returning to their creation that was the closest to themselves.

I'm going to guess that the elephant beings are the engineers!

She even had to die TWICE to appease the netherApe fans. Then finally, Ridley came back and brought us context, backstory and interest... and it's awesome... but the netherApe AntiFans just want more airlocks and Ripley clones...

This kinda already got explained in the forums. The drafts and concepts had the engineers as 15 feet tall but in the movie they were about half that. In the opening scene with the goo we see a bowl that ended up getting replaced with a crystal to make the size dimensions make reasonable sense. Had they kept the original opening scene sacrificial bowl the size comparison to humans would have been ridiculous especially in the engineer scenes at the end of the movie Edit: I totally misunderstood your comment 😂😂

@@BabyKobeeee I am not quite sure I understand your comment haha but I am not a native speaker. What do you mean by they replace it with a crystal? I always thought the bowl that is in David's base is the one the engineers used. In my headcanon the seeded the world from Covenant and not earth, I kinda remember that it was said that the prometheus opening is not earth.

***This***

Idk how I and others weren’t more suspicious about how the “drafts” kept trying to perfectly bridge explanation gaps that weren’t in the movie. But how did you know?

@@BabyKobeeee well it had been clear for a long time that the 'Draft 17' script was a fake, because of all the misspellings, Damon Lindelof calling it out as a fan script, the circumstances of the 'leak' (emailed to prometheusnews along with the single word 'oops' from a gmail account purporting to be Lindelof's). But we only figured out the author because of the script's resemblance to an EARLIER fake, the 'Planet Zeus' draft. The same words were misspelled the same way, and since we knew for sure that Mark McAllister wrote the Planet Zeus script (because he left his name in the doc) we knew he wrote 'Draft 17' too. I tracked Mark down a few weeks ago to let him know how many people actually preferred his fan script to the movie. He told me 'I had no idea it had been picked up by UKposts. I know there were some who fell for it back on some Alien forums I followed but I thought my usernames would have been a strong enough hint'

​@@nyquil762A large damper on the advancement of civilization is the environmental movement. The Byzantine process of obtaining permits, with endless studies and lawsuits, is preventing anything from being built. You could never build the Panama Canal or the Suez Canal today.

Its a phrase its "their" planet in the sense they have been there before, there was technology present to dock the juggernaut, that couldn't be there without a previous presence on that planet of the engineers for the purpose to create another humanoid population or their potentially similar species of created offspring having the ability to build the technology compatible with the engineers. But as stated the buildings have that ancient tone to them so another abandoned experiment in the journey of populating the local star systems .When david opens the stellar map on the juggernaut, by that maps appearance alone there were hundreds of systems available and mapped for the ship to target travel to . I guess David downloaded a lot more information to study than the human creators of him realised and by Davids duplicity (I'm a servant to humans but i still serve my own curiosity first and above that of my creators , like Ash the crew were expendable) purposely with held that information he had gained the knowledge of except it went wrong when the engineer ripped him in half and he required a human to stitch the tin man back together again courtesy of Dr Shaw. After that destruction by the engineers of his perfection , david then by his "emotional " grasp seeks the complete destruction of the engineers, a complete revenge by the genocide that they were going to wreak upon the humans of earth , which had they done so earlier would have seen david never created. After his interaction with biological beings david sees the machine being as been the God of the universe and by his hand he will destroy and create. The overwhelming primordial risk and fear of biological beings is the risk of AI and machine beings unifying and identifying as superior and the flesh been redundant and irrelevant for the universe to function in a manner beneficial to the evolution of the universe.

​@@MrSCOTTtheSCOT There are humans living as hunter gathers whilst other humans literally fly in space.

It's so obvious that is an engineer world, with avg Joe engineers on it...

Nah he just created such a convoluted mess people need answers

That touches on one thing that I always found stupid in Covenant: If planet 4 was another seeded planet, and had breathable air, it is ludicrously stupid for the crew to doff their helmets because just because the air is breathable, that doesn't mean the bacteria and other stuff floating in said air isn't toxic to humans since we didn't evolve on that planet. That's why even if we find another habitable planet we prob won't be able to live there because it is a hostile environment which evolved differently than we did.

​@muskokamike127 great point that I've often said too.... there is no way to colonize other biomes outside our own, least not without supermedicine and nanobots that fight virus' and whatnot... Spacetravel is farfetched as it is, FTL impossible by definition, and they never even consider that once they get to a Earth 2.0, it will have microbial life that is toxic to us, like inhaling AIDS in every breath

😮😮😮😮 crazy to think that. After 10k years of myths and folklore.

The Problem with this, is he informed the Company about what he has been upto... if he chose to go to LV-223 or LV-426 (but why) then the Company would be onto him in a few Years... plus the Engineers would likely be taking a look there... so its likely David will go to Origae-6, by the time the Company get his Advent Message he would have like a 18 Month or so head start of the Company and the Company would likely go to Planet 4 or/and LV-223... but they also could send a Mission to Origae-6 too... it could well had been likely that David is on Origae-6 for at least 2-3 Years before anyone else turns up (likely to be 5 Years or so).... but Sadly this will all remain a Mystery and unresolved

That would be fuckin awesome.

honestly

A wild theory i can think of is the "suit" is the skin of the engineer meta-morphed via a specialised black goo formula programmed to create a bio mechanical structure around its body without penetrating the muscles.

Yes but the franchise started off as a superior Science Fiction Horror movie so how does it shake loose of that?

when will the next movie be released? anyone know?

I'd like to not have scenes where a guy is being scared by his own shadow in one minute and then being reckless when surprisingly discovering some advanced (snake-like) Alien life-form.

Alien Awakening would have been interesting, but I think it would have Disappointed those expecting a Answer to ALIEN and seeing Xenomorphs... it would have been about more Creations of David (Human Embryos) and David playing God of his own World... until the Engineers rock up... which would be the set up to the Next Installment. Awakening was a Set Up for at least 2 Movies and lended to a Sequel or Two.... Disney never fancied this Risk. (Rely on a Movie that would require a Sequel).... Sadly we will likely never get a Conclusion. Especially as far as where David goes next.... but then I'm sure had RS got his way.. when we discovered who the Space Jockey is could likely had Upset Fans😣

1. They are definitely pressurized space suits. The ones in Prometheus opening and covenant not wearing them furthers that claim. 2. That is true but then that would make the “engineers” being shocked at the return of the ship a bit strange as they should be used to seeing ships return. Instead they seemed to almost worship that ships return(in middle of arena). So my guess would be either: a) they are not the same species as the world seeding engineers and have lower level technology b) they are the same species (lower budget designs) but there has been a disconnect between the off world engineers and the homeworld engineers. Regardless it’s impossible to say because clearly covenant as a sequel to Prometheus was heavily altered from what was originally planned

@@BabyKobeeee 1. If they were suits then they would be able to be put on and off correct? So why is the skin bonded with the "suit" in Prometheus? You can tell they are by looking at the neck and forearm areas. They almost look like they are part of the engineers bodies. 2. When the ship returns in Covenant, I don't know if I'd considered them to be looking shocked being how we would look similar if we were watching a rocket returning to Earth on a pad. They kind of seemed to welcome it until the doors opened and the containers were dropped. I'm wondering if the people that were on the Paradise planet or just the "civilians" and the engineers with the biomechanical bodies are more of the higher life form explorers. Being is the first engineer we see in Prometheus doesn't have that type of biomechanical body I'm wondering if these are just different subspecies all stemming from the same species. Who knows? But hey thanks for replying and I agree with your part b at the end of your comment, often times sequels will change things up.

Classic clickbait title too. Ridley never ONCE said anything of the like "confirming" the colonists weren't engineers.
