Fire & Humanity

Yep,I think they find a trace on Earth,which leads them to LV426 or another planet? seemed to be suggested in the synopsis on IMDB......then the fun started!!!!

Let's not forget the two murals Giger made for Ridley....we know one is in one of the chambers in the 'establishment'....I bet the other is on earth and it's part of what they find on earth.

I have a feeling the fire will be what's contained in those ampules....

The fire will be a metaphor for a deadly species that will spell potential doom for humanity, simples. . . :)

Let's see......Prometheus gave mankind fire, and Prometheus was subsequently punished for it (specifically by way of an eagle devouring his liver pretty much forever, as his liver kept growing back every day). Fire is questionably mankind's first invention.....as some say our first invention was a wheel. Fire has ass-loads of connotations, both positive & negative, encompassing all sorts of different themes. ... ...well, if we're going by the image that a divine entity gave mankind fire, it could tie in with one of those alleged plot-details, with how the gods share their technology with their creations (us). This technology they share with the crew could be the "fire". This "fire" is sure to be something beyond human control, though, something they are perhaps unworthy of being in possession of, especially if this technology comes from a god-like race. Oh, and always remember : "Prometheus" is the name of the ship featured in the movie. Despite this movie's title's purpose having a wide variety of undertones, "Prometheus" is the name of a man-made ship.
