David's Roles Aboard the Prometheus

Apologies in advance if this has been discussed before. Reviewing the leaked screenshots from the very first Prometheus trailer from Comic-con 2011, I noticed the shot of Shaw in a hypersleep chamber with a hand over it. [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ch69CrQ7Ph8&context=C3ad70fdADOEgsToPDskKuA2vQZw7xc9rAaCPiFqXM]Leaked screenshots from the first trailer on Youtube[/url] I think this is David's hand. David is a "synthetic human", so he doesn't need to rehabilitate his muscles after spending months travelling in space? Does David even need to sleep during the trip? If this is true then it would discount the interview with Kate Dickie who plays "Imora" who helps the crew get their muscle tone back after waking up from hypersleep. Thoughts?

I think it is more likely that Shaw is in the tube after she has been impregnated by the Engineers, not from cryosleep IMO.

.....well maybe David does not need to sleep....but they do need someone to get the human crew back in shape....maybe David just kinda switches off...who knows?...or he just keeps a guarding eye on the ship while everyone is in dreamland....like house-sitting....or ship-sitting in this particular case?

David could get Imora back into shape after she wakes up before the rest of the crew. Once Imora has regained her muscle tone, then she would be ready to help the rest of the crew rehabilitate themselves. In the meantime, David could start analyzing the data from the alien world which they are approaching.

....come to think of it....after a long hyper sleep i am sure u feel rather crap....imagine the worst hangover imaginable.....so if dickie is human....then how is she gonna tend to the others...if she herself feels like shit....so that lends me to believe that perhaps she is the second android...makes sense?

Still, David could revive Imora a month before the rest of the crew and therefore get her into shape in anticipation of helping the other crew members. I don't know why Imora would need to be an Android at all.

...i suppose if their is gonna be a second android like ridley stated.....then it will play a vital role in the whole plot....she said that she only lives like 28 minutes (hardly a major role)...but on the other hand...an android will make the perfect personal trainer...lol

I thought Ridley suggested that there might be two androids but didn't vow that there would be. I think it's possible Vickers could be the second android - a cold, mechanical corporate robot.

....yeah she is another suspect....Theron.....her character seems to be quite the enigma....so i won't be to surprised....tho Vickers being an android almost seems to obvious...i laugh it's Shaw...but maybe their is'nt even a second android like u mentioned...maybe the blue guy is the second android......maybe...perhaps...who knows...all i know for certain is that i am quite human and i do need my sleep...gonna have some now..;)
