For an android,,David never really interacts with the Scientific crew, In almost every scene in the Pyrimid explorations,,David is separate from the group,,doing what he feels is important,,,not what the scientist are looking at. And if they are together,,well David is not really co-operative, When Shaw says not to touch anything,,David is openning doors,,not caring what is on the other side,, Thinking back to Alien..Ash always seemed to be with various crew members interacting,,advising,,or sharing information.. I found David's attitude quite different,,,,and disturbing..

Pewrhaps I should just search all David related posts..but wanted to get a bit more specific.. I tried the search,,bit no results.. This thread was started after recent viewing of the movie and notice the number of scenes that always had David somewhere..where others were searching for him.. It just an observation..

Go back and watch Alien again, Indy. Ash is withdrawn to study the facehugger while he has it; he definitely had his own agenda. Ripley even calls him out on it for not being useful and for going against her orders. The fact that David is aloof from the group is part of what makes his character more interesting, even if his intentions aren't entirely clear.

It has been awhile since an 'Alien' viewing...and your comments reminded me of what was actually portayed.. When 'Alien'..appears on cable I'll give it a look. David aloof,,certainly adds depth to his charactor,, David as a future 'God' has been mentioned on a thread,,,,,but that would take quite a leap of faith as this point of the Prometheus storyline..

...and David's Creator died... Where did David get the idea that people want their Parents dead? From Weyland perhaps,,but it would the kind of idea that came from another human..with still another agenda..

David asked this question of Elizabeth just before their sortie to meet the Engineer: "Doesn't everyone want their parents dead?", he asked. It's a mysterious robot thing. I've no idea where he got the notion from.
The most terrifying fact about the universe is not that it is hostile but that it is indifferent

David is talking about this subject to Shaw,,,just before heading back for confrontation with the Last Engineer.. On a related matter.. David removed Shaw's cross,,,before the birthing..and then gave it back to Shaw,,later. In fact why did David even keep the Cross....and then tell her about it?
