OFFICIAL: David will be able to read the dreams of the Prometheus' crew members

[quote]Alright, well... I've got one very important question. Why the HELL would this be a feature aboard the ship? Why would David be able to access the crewmembers' dreams? Neuro-Vision Link... WTF? My first assumption, off the top of my head; to keep their minds in check, because they're in hypersleep for 2 years. Making sure they're stable. I just hope that David doesn't affect the outcome of the movie/story TOO much because of his perversion (clearly, he's going to lose it at some point, another typical case of android with a more deep thought-process/self awareness). I don't want his actions taking many of the things of the movie into effect; effecting the outcome of the movie, basically, what happens in general. The bio-mutagenic material turning him into a human, sure. Him influencing an Engineer? NO! I have the feeling as if he's going to behave like a rabid animal, gone out of control... The sooner that Engineer rips off his CAGE, the better :D[/quote] I think david will affect the outcome little bit, along lines that he does something bad without him realizing that its wrong, i mean two years just him alone in a spaceship with other peoples dreams he goes nuts! :D

@HAL 9000, I think David is predestined to play the role of the "enfant gaté". I don´t see him as coy enough to not going to read Vicker´s dreams if he can. Alas, maybe this is protocol procedure, as Prenihility said. We already know that he has a monitoring role during deep space flight; from the 15 minutes footage people describe, we know that he enters Vickers chamber, only to discover that she is already active just out of the hypersleep chamber. @Svanya, Lovely picture!

@centrosphere: Very good point, you're absolutely right there. It is standard procedure/protocol, part of his assignment. Had forgotten about it already, too much going on. Oh I wish I could go back in time about 1 year where I didn't know anything about this movie... David, come here in an instance and erase those bits, would you?

ekk.... i may have to rethink ordering 2 david8's. i have some pretty bizarre dreams so i wouldnt want them conspiring against me. funnily enough i even had a couple dreams of seeing prometheus in the theater and both dreams were pretty terrible.

HOW did it end..???? Haha! Don't forget to put *SPOILER ALERT*

LOL well i had 2 dreams so **SPOILER ALLERT**** the first one started out with the promethus crew going to the alien planet.. then they run into a "grey" that looks like roger from american dad... then he diverts them to a planet of other greys and goofy looking xeno morphs and it turns into a huge PG goofy muppet looking musical movie. i kept screaming in the theater "ARE YOU FKING KIDDING ME!!?? WTF IS THIS CRAP!!??" and then the screen goes black, and nothing but glowing white text comes up that says "I got you, dumb asses, thanks for your money. Sir. Ridley Scott" the second dream ***SPOILER ALLERT*** was of a huge solid black slug monster that looked like a leach but with stick like limbs having hardcore sex with shaw 10 minutes into the film so i threw my popcorn on the floor while saying "....gross dude" and walked out and asked for my money back.

Oh how I wish I hadn't asked... and read that! Bella, the world you live in is a dark and wicked place! Haha

you wish you hadnt read that, i dreamed that crap! i have many beliefs of dreams and meanings, they can be very meaningful and some of it is random information replayed by the brain.... but for some of it, like i get.. is random weird crap out of no place. i would never think anything like that would happen in the movie so wtf? lol. my prime example of random brain crap is my most memorable dream ever: i had a dream were i was someplace ive never seen before being chased by a flock of flying vampire hamsters in dracula capes that were the size of guinea pigs. i would love for one of those dream analyzers to explain that one.

Shaw is actually the last person we need to see the dreams of, it is Vickers who has all the secrets, the one who is potentially the most dangerous.

Hey Bella I feel with you there, no worries. I get a nasty shark dream about 2-3 times a year... since 20 years or longer! Keeps coming back and bugging me...
