JUST SAW THE MOVIE!!! FEW QUESTIONS!!

Also! - just looked at some screen shots... lol why does the Engineer have the same underwear as the rest of the crew on the ship? did he also make our Underwear in his own image?

LOL Morbius, best question ever!

It's the same underwear that Space Engineer Jesus was crucified in... :P

1. Yes :-D 2. That black goo has had 3 different effects on the 3 we see it touch. The Engineer in the beginning, just dissolves after drinking it and apparently seeds life on some planet that may not even be Earth from what we've been hearing lately. Holloway, well, who the hell knows what was happening with him? He dies by flamethrower before we have any idea of what the effect is on him. It does effect his sperms enough to make a previously infertile woman give birth to a vagina-squid with teeth where it's dong comes from though. (I mean, seriously, WTF is with that? One chomp and it would be pretty useless for impregnating anything.) Fifield turns into some sort of weird zombie with anger issues and enough strength to possibly take on The Hulk (well, maybe not The Hulk, but it makes him stronger it seems.) 3. See above Good spot with the undies too, you're right. Seems we have far more in common with the Engineers (Man I hate calling them that :-S) than just a 100 percent DNA match............. Lindelof and his "black stuff that-can-do-just-about-anything-despite-there-being-no-actual-explanation-for-what-exactly-it-is" style of writing is to blame for that. Soon as I realized that the stuff was black, I knew he'd ripped his own smoke monster from Lost off. And Ridley Scott is to blame for allowing Lindelof near the production in the first place. I blame them both for this utter tripe of a movie.

To have all this stuff explained in the first instalment would look very silly in the context of a grander scheme. In 2018, movie fans will look back and say "Thank Christ it wasn't all done in one movie". So there. :P

A film should be able to stand on it's own merits and NOT be reliant on sequels for answers zz, espescially when the whole premise of this movie was "who are we and where did we come from?" Ok, so halfway through Prometheus we find that out, we're a 100 percent match in DNA to the Engineers. So what? WHERE DO THE ALIENS COME FROM? One of THE biggest questions people have wanted to know for years. Also, why did the Space Jockey have a hold full of Alien eggs? How did he get infected? Was he forced to land, did he crash land on purpose, WHO SET UP THE WARNING THE NOSTROMO PICKED UP? The Space Jockey himself? If it was, makes no sense as to why they would do that, because they want to destroy us in Prometheus. The whole thing is now thrown out of whack more so than it ever has been. This was marketed as an Alien movie. So why? If it was never MEANT to be? What if the sequels HADN'T been greenlit? Just because Ridley Scott made it, doesn't guarantee that it's worthy of a sequel. I for one have already been waiting 20 years for answers about a few things from Alien, now I have to wait till near the end of THIS decade to MAYBE find those answers out? Thanks, but I'd rather not.

@Cypher: [i]"A film should be able to stand on it's own merits and NOT be reliant on sequels for answers"[/i] You are dead wrong. I'm a grown man and I shed a tear or two when I got to the end of [i]Manon des Sources[/i] (a sequel). [i]"we find that out, we're a 100 percent match in DNA to the Engineers"[/i] Incorrect. Please watch the movie again and get your facts straight. [i]Various Questions[/i]: Various answers will follow in time. As they should. [i]This was marketed as an Alien movie. So why? If it was never MEANT to be?[/i] That's your interpretation, not mine. I lost count of the number of times that I heard Ridley say that there was an 8-minute cross-over to [i]Alien[/i]. [i]"What if the sequels HADN'T been greenlit?"[/i] The plan was always to make more than one. [i]"now I have to wait till near the end of THIS decade to MAYBE find those answers out?"[/i] Correct.

Just got something else to add here.. while someone at the top said something about when Firfield came back he was really strong... cause of the Alien DNA in him... in one of the Alien Movies the main Woman since she had an alien inside her it made her stronger remember? she was kicking other guys asses and stuff and was really powerfull? so... seems like this Goo no matter what is close to Alien DNA

Well Ridley has been playing games with us lol... The 8 mins was hyped up and so set up many expectations, the 8 mins was no link to Alien the movie had links all the way through it. And had they stuck with the Original Fifield Concepts this would had been more so evident. The only link as far as see with the last 8 mins was this... We see that Shaws Baby grows up to be a huge Octopus like Face Hugger that then implants something into the Engineers mouth just like the Face Hugger did. We then see that this Engineer then has a Chest Buster with a Xeno looking Organism that is again much larger than a Chest Buster but then so was the Face Hugger Squid much larger than the original Face Hugger. The Alien Link was thus... That this Black Substance in the Urns via a series of events leads to a Organism that is very reminiscent of the Original Xeno Cycle of Face Hugger to Chest Buster. Thus the link is that the Substance in the Urns is connected to the Xeno. And there is no Link to Alien only a link between the Xeno and the stuff in the Urns. The Worms are simply evolved and enlarged and have Xeno DNA and traits while also maintaining some of the Worms traits just at a evolved level. Such as growing back its head. Shaws Baby well because a fertilized embryo has less fully developed DNA to be re-written and thus produced a Organism that contained more Xeno DNA and Traits. Fifield.... well that was a joke.... the original concepts he looked more Alien and showed more of a connection with the Xeno DNA, so the Zombie look has well added more plot holes to debates and can now counter argue the effects of the Urns. Where as the more Xeno inspired Fifields would had shown that the Goo mutates lifeforms to take on Xeno DNA, and i think was cut to tone down the Xeno DNA in the movie and savor it for Shaws Baby.

Seriously. The original concepts for the mutated Fifield look much better and more terrifying, can't wait to watch the director's cut/extended version. Just out of curiosity, how does one with map drawing "pups" that link his position to the bridge of the ship and the area still gets lost?

lol Warrior i can only say that Weyland never made all that money for nothing. And he must have cuts costs on the crew... not many of them would seem to be the best of their chosen careers. lol
