MemberOvomorphJuly 03, 20123175 Views38 RepliesHello my friends! The big question to all this! Will Shaw and David finally meet God/The Engineer's Creator in Paradise? How will he/she/it look like? Ridley has said that Paradise isn't what we expect it to be so will that also include God? I really hope Shaw and David do meet him and that Giger designs him!

I would realy like the film makers to be daring and to show the 'Paradise' world to actually be a Giger-planet. The entire surface and even kilometers below the surface is an ENTIRE bio Mechanical world! Think of the Juggernaught and the Derilict interiors and exteriors both on steroids! Wow! And the title is ironic as this place would surley be hell, to us at least for a reason that could be made apparant in the story, dangerous to us but to a Bio Engineer 'Paradise'.
Perhaps theiy had a technology all consuming event that swallowed up the former Bio Engineers true selves and the Paradise idea is really a parable to us humans about Earth and this other world and the moral tale to be told in actual fact is 'Paradise Lost' as the ancient earthly tale goes.

Ah, "God" will be a common old Engineer perplexed by their arrival, not knowing what to do with them while scratching his bald head and whistling to "Alien" soundtrack.
The funny side of it is that they will come to him at the precise moment the old rag farts and picks his own nose.
Enters Lindelof saying "MAGIC"
roll credits.

lol, That's Lindelof "Magic" for you. It's not movie scarry but it is so absurd it scares the movie-goer just for the sake of being Lindelof.

Hahahaha I'd love to see something so sexual and scary it make David explode! But now that I think about the Jockeys where the fake evil god so I hope in Paradise we will meet the true beautiful God!

David 1July 03, 2012
OH YESSSSS Freeze. that would be great. Mix Alien with Necronomicon + Biomechanoids and we have a winer.

@Freeze I like the idea! But I'd like something less goaty and more Xeno!

We could always petition Sir Ridley to ask Giger to come up with a BiomechAlien Goat... and a Waffle. There has to be Waffles.

I would cry tears of joy if I saw Giger's Baphomet alive on screen. But, beggars can't be choosers!

Hmmm I like you ideas! WAFFLES! I'm more of a French toast guy though! FRENCH TOAST AND BIOMECH GOD/GOATS!

Synthrimonger94July 03, 2012
@Freeze
Giger does deserve more credit he's a genius and I'd love to see ALL of his work in the Prometheus sequels! But I'd be happier If I'd see the EMPEROR Tarot on screen or his UNIVERSE tarot!

David 1July 03, 2012
FRENCH TOAST is the winer.
BAPHOMET + French Toasts... sound like a poem....
"See me here standing, in flames burning
My wings spread from coast to coast
I am Baphomet, the Goat All Knowing
Please come again and have this Franch Toast"
see? Poetry

Its the tourists...them...neeeeeeed guests...collapsing from the strain of an intellegence free environment


SkyJuly 04, 2012
If I am not wrong, story of shaw and david will not be resumed. New story towards the engineers and the similar other life forms which are intelligent will be explored, with some new symbols and mythology which slightly connects with the prometheus and this goes tangent only not to spoil the previous film's take.
Uncertainty is the only certainty there is, and knowing how to live with insecurity is the only security.

God will be Shaw's father like in the horrible ending to 'Contact'. I was sooo pissed!!! Her father??? REALLY??? I wanted to see an alien!
ParkerNAugust 01, 2012
TBH I think "god" will be some sort of engineer type looking thing, like the elder/older looking engineer.

CustodianAugust 02, 2012
But Giger's already given us a look at a REAL space traveller, the original Space Jockey
WHO WAS CLEARLY [url=http://www.prometheus-movie.com/community/forums/topic/6686]AN ELEPHANTINE GIANT[/url] looking into a time-scope to navigate the mega-dimensions.
What's with this shaved nappy wearer?

If Ridley and team go in the Gnostic/Zoroastric direction for the Gods: (both quotes from wikipedia)
[quote][i]In late antiquity the term [b]archon[/b] was used in Gnosticism to refer to several servants of the Demiurge, the "creator god" that stood between the human race and a transcendent God that could only be reached through gnosis.[/i] [/quote]
[quote][i]In the context of the English language gnosis generally refers to the word's meaning within the spheres of Christian mysticism, Mystery religions and Gnosticism where it signifies 'spiritual knowledge' in the sense of mystical enlightenment.[[/i][/quote]
I'm pretty sure the Engineers are stand-in's for the Archons.
If they go in the Lovecraftian direction, pretty much anything goes. But there are similarities between the [b]Elder Ones[/b] and the [b]Star-Spawn of Cthulu[/b] in ALIEN and PROMETHEUS.
[quote][i]For in [b]At the Mountains of Madness[/b] we find the history of a conflict between two interstellar races (among others): the Elder Ones and the Cthulhu-spawn.[/i][/quote]
I'm expecting a combination of both Gnostism and Lovecraft.
