We all know the mythological story of Prometheus - Titan gives fire to man and is punished by Zeus for eternity by having his liver devoured by an eagle.
In the Book of Enoch the fallen angel Azazel does similar, having been banished from heaven he and the other dark angels are thrown down to Earth where they teach early man how to use tools and fire.
Now look at the depiction of the titans in mythology, they are shown to be essentially demons. Although they did come before the Olympian gods such as Zeus.
What if the title of the movie is the biggest clue of the lot...
The SJ's are in charge, having been around for billions of years and then they are superseded by a younger race whom lock them up in a prison, and what worse prison than a prison of their own making. The temples, their temples are their prison, their hell.
before the were superseded by their children they had given use fire. But in the time inbetween they have become shadows of their former selves, twisted, mangled, truly evil, and view all their children as bastards unworthy of existing.
They guided us, were turned upon by other children and sealed away, we come along open the prison and face our God's, whom have become Devil's.
