Mala'kakMay 24, 2012^^ This. There is definitely at least one real Engineer that calls all the shots.
Also the twitter girl is wrong on many things and no one has what happens to Weyland completely correct yet. And well since it's coming out soon overseas I'll say I know much of what starts to happen to him and can guess from there. Not gonna say how I know, because I didn't see a pre-screening, just certain scenes. And maybe I lied yesterday when i said I knew only a few more things, because memory is tricky and I can only remember a lot of the stuff that stood out. it's actually 2 major scenes i was referring to yesterday.
SPOILERS
It's clear that Weyland does become like them for a short while because it speaks in Guy Pearce's voice to David pretending to be Weyland still. However the last Engineer is nearby and managing the situation. This is no longer Weyland.. He is actually transformed into a tall Engineer only briefly and as far as I know will not get in that chair/suit. Because of what happens to him.. He was deceived by the last engineer, or perhaps the engineer didn't get the exact results he wanted. He grows out of control as something goes terribly wrong due to, I believe, his cancer NOT actually being cured by the Jockey transformation, He mutates further into a self-replicating, difficult to kill or even slow down, leg sprouting blob, and then starts to turn into what can only be described as a giant alien-spider creature of some sort before what I've seen cut out.
Not only did the twitter girl have how the acid/cobra hugger scene happens wrong (I think she only saw the trailer of it ahead of time or only saw certain scenes like me ), but the lack of certain details that should have been included in that scene, and the straight-up wrong details about Weyland's transformation made me conclude that she faked most of it. There's no way Weyland's fitting into that suit/chair after what happens to him. Before maybe, if the chair is used to mutate them into Elder Engineers in the first place, and then he walks around speaking English with Guy Pearce's voice and the last Engineers thoughts.
Then he decapitates David before he realizes it's still growing. The body starts to scream in anguish before being silenced by the last Engineer, dissolved from the inside, and then suddenly, shockingly and rapidly reforms & reorganizes from almost nothing, and reanimates into the self-repairing, giant slimy blob-ish creature that begins to sprout many legs and continues to grow even larger. It grows like an alien cancer, reanimating the dead flesh. I think the last engineer can't control it like when he was speaking English through the Weyland monster's intermediate stage to David. Ridley did say they have "control" of various biomechanical creatures. I think Weyland's rare form of cancer affected the transformation process. The irony is he gets his immortality, but basically becomes a disease, because not even the jockey transformation could cure his rare form of cancer.
