I have a theory myself. First time posting but long time viewing this board. Anyway. About the link to Alien and the Alien Queen. There seems to be a reason why the Engineers were scared that has yet been discovered. Most of them were dead from the being infected by their own weapon. We didn’t see any monsters that they were running from. They most likely died out during the 2000 year slumber. But I think the link from Aliens stems from Dr.Shaw. There were no female Engineers for whatever reason. Surely they procreate. But how I see it, things change because of the way she got infected (saving sex) gives the Xeno a way to procreate. IE Become a Queen and find a way to make eggs. Properly something the engineers didn’t want to happen. They controlled the ooze and how the monsters were created. Mixing the DNA of women with the ooze creates something they didn’t want. Also give there weapon a way of creating its own life. That’s properly why the engineer went after Dr.Shaw in the first place. Knowing that if she was to get infected it could be a problem for the universe. Clearly they were trying to make the Warrior Alien, facehugger and control the life cycle. It was written on the walls, but I don’t think they wanted them to be able to control their own life cycle. David giving the ooze to Charlie and spreading through sex changed the way it was supposed to work. Just a though.

@Aprim - Very good thinking! As a xeno created species that could reproduce by itself, would be catastrophic. . . Well as it proves in Alien, Aliens etc! I think Shaw could be the reason that they go out of control, and I think we may see some Engineer massacre in the Prometheus sequel ;)

I agree with this thinking...this goo can do things without end. For what they liked that became of it, perhaps they seeded a planet. For stuff they didint like, they would destroy...their way of controlling it. Having theri labs far from theri planet says that they know things can go south quickly and the holographics prove it. Definetly a no-no to mix with humans. Agreed
