A Theory: Prometheus is a cruel postmodernist joke and a structural clone of New

[b]A brief explanation of the postmodernist theory[/b] The point of postmodernism is in that there is no way to obtain an objective truth. The idea originates from the notion that there is a at least three contexts for any given text in the postmodernist wold: author's context, linguistic context and reader's context. The contexts may differ and there could be several (even opposing) meanings of a text if the text have vague internal structure, and in general there is no way to check if an obtained meaning matches author's meaning. But if the text has unambiguous internal structure but just obfuscated (connections between some facts are intentionally broken) it's possible to reconstruct more or less non-contradictory variant of it (using logical tests, moreover the structure should be as simple as possible, which implies that only facts from the story should be used) and interpret the text in a right context (this generally should be the substrate context), this may give a meaning close to author's one. [b]What is Neon Genesis Evangelion[/b] NGE is a very complex obfuscated narrative and cruel postmodernist joke which provokes zillions of interpretations, although it very detailed and has very solid internal structure (which is hidden by obfuscation). There are some common points between NGE and Prometheus: - Twofold name: in NGE it names fighting machines and the hidden story (the Kabbalistic salvation of the humanity by transformation of it into Adam Kadmon through an artificially created messiah, this resembles events from the Gospel and evangelion means gospel in Greek); in Prometheus it names the spaceship and denotes the process of the creation of the humanity through direct reference to mythological Prometheus (the person who created the humanity remembers a figure from Greek epos). - Creation of the humanity through a demiurge: in NGE the demiurge is Lilith created by the first ancestral race which referenced as "God", in Prometheus this is the person which resembles a Greek titan from the race of progenitors which formally is a god of the humanity. - Presence of a heavy symbolic layer which hides the substrate layer (so, at least two non-contradictory intrerpretations could be obtained): in NGE the symbolic layer is Kabbalah and the substrate layer is alien science of the first ancestral race, in Prometheus the symbolic layer is the Christianity and the substrate layer is Alien franchise (so it may be interpreted in the context of the Christianity and the Alien franchise). - Both stories contain signs of obfuscation (for example, a link between worms from the sanctuary, "facehuggers" and the dead jockeys exist, but it's not shown directly). So, the Prometheus obviously is a yet another cruel postmodernist joke which most likely could not be reliably interpreted, because there are no enough details for this (so only simplest interpretations which are use as little additional entities as possible would look credible). Prometheus has one radical difference from NGE, it doesn't contain a bright emotional entertainment layer, so it not attracts general public as NGE does and looks mediocre.
