I love the notion that some fans have stated, that the jockey, upon meeting David felt humanity was mocking the 'gods' by trying to replicate humans - in essence reaching godhood themselves - that's why he went nuts.
But why did he go out of his way specifically to chase down Shaw?

funnily enough me and my mate said that when coming out of it yesterday being my 2nd time seeing the film. Physically lets face it the engineer is gonna win, he's bigger and is physically meaner. However, the predator has a little thing called a plasma cannon. If the pred is a cheating little bugger he'd shoot the engineer but then again the pred would prob put his shit on the floor and go in all fisty-cuffs. Yeh my bets are on the engineer, way more badass.

Lol, well, since you put it like that...
I wonder who'd win out of a contest with Space Jockeys V Predators??

Well her crew did just smack his ship out of the sky and cause it to do a roley-poley. plus he knew she survived as he saw her leg it but cba chasing her.
With the sheer anger and hostility he evokes when he assaults her one can only surmise he's well and truly pissed off.
Think it from his point of view - 'Fu**in B**ch just smacked me out of the sky, my ships goosed, oh yeh would you look at that theirs a part of the ship on the floor, lets take a look, ooh hello im gonna rip you head off.'

i find it so pathetic when the grammar police start to chip in....if you have nothing interesting to say...then serious...just fuck off!

@jdax
fistycuffs is a form of slang, i couldnt care less how it is spelt it still gave off the intention of meaning I was trying to evoke.
And funnily is a word. Maybe you should check yourself before stating spellcheck fails.

...lol...did you really think that was hostile...( i feel so badass now...lol).nah it was just out of pure frustration....if people wanne add something to the forum...then great.....but who gives a fuck about spelling mistakes....it really is pathetic and clearly some people do not have the imagination to just add their opinion....

what made me laugh was funnily (get the pun ;) ) is an actual word. fisty-cuffs is a well know form of slang (i.e. its in the urban dictionary) and was not a spell error just a peculiar choice of wording to describe my post - regardless it still made goddamn sense lol.
An yh i'd much appreciate if someone commented on the comment I made rather than nitpicky little errors in so-called spelling.

Well, apart from being 'slightly annoyed' at being shot out of the sky, we can assume that he is the only engineer on the planet that is not in stasis, and he knows that there are other ships she could interfere with, so he SHOULD be determined to wipe her out, rather than risk her getting another ship.
