AdminEngineerOct-07-2013 7:40 PMIt's been a while since we've heard any updates on [b]Prometheus 2's[/b] filming situation. From what I know, the script has yet to be green lit, but Fox is also keeping a tight lip on its production, so they could be into pre-production and we just not know it yet.
That being said, I saw some pretty cook fan art online earlier today, of a very Giger-esque looking "God" figure. It got me thinking - what do you guys think of the possibility of there being Engineer Gods" present on the Engineer homeworld? Or [i]Paradise[/i]? It certainly would be interesting to see somewhat of a hierarchy to the Engineer race. Or at least see a more powerful Engineer species. What do you think?

I also have a sneaking suspicion that Paradise will either fall prey to a Xenomorph infestation, or will already be overrun by the time Shaw and David arrive (assuming they do), leaving only monuments of the potential Engineer Gods, like seen above. Or something possibly similar.
Let me know what you think below!

MemberNeomorphOct-09-2013 3:22 PMYes but where do you draw the line between an attack on the opinion, or an attack on the person who's posting the opinion? After all, your opinion is a part of you, It is not just your opinion, it is what you believe.
I'm passionate about ALIEN and if anybody says anything negative about it, I feel defensive! But I have learnt to stop for a moment and calm down. You have to!
We are on a site where, if you get TOO passionate, to the point where it turns personal, you are likely to get banned from the site. You have to follow the rules or face the consequences. I like coming to this site, so I try to obide by the rules.
It's all about self control. Everyone on the planet can only be pushed so far before they snap! We are human. We are Imperfect! We make mistakes!
That's what P2 should be about.
The poster was good though!

MemberOvomorphOct-09-2013 3:35 PMNo, the fact that I have an opinion different from yours, does not mean you have the right to come here and say bad words to me. I repeat, do not mix apples and oranges. Use arguments, not insults. If you want to show class, go ahead.

MemberOvomorphOct-09-2013 3:47 PMAlright Necro, don't worry, I didn't not come here to make war, or least not a personal war :p I am a fan as you all, so I'll turn the page and this will be my last reply off topic in this thread XD

MemberNeomorphOct-09-2013 3:57 PMRight I know now. What i'm trying to say is. I'll give you an example:
My dear old dad (sarcasm) thinks that, if you can't see eye to eye with somebody then you are destined to never get along. I disagree! It all depends on what kind of person you are! If you're a very serious person, who is opinionated, you will make enemies of those who disagree with your opinion. On the other hand, if you're someone that realises that everyone is different and the world would be a dull place if everyone was the same and had the same opinions, you are bound to be more tolerant of somebody who disagrees with you.
A negative remark from a person whome you don't know, is a personal attack. You have to KNOW somebody before you can judge whether or not it is just a bit of banter or an attack.
My dear old dad views everything as an attack and there are a lot of people like him in the world. He also doesn't have a sense of humour which is also a problem!
Reminds me of that line in Prometheus "Doesn't everyone want their parents...... But that's another story Haha

MemberDeaconOct-09-2013 6:31 PMI think we should see lots of ruins, maybe some Gigerish and we see some more of the cullture of the Engineers.
But i dont want the place to be over run with Xenos or Engineers....
Maybe there are very little left of the Engineers, maybe they befell due to the Xeno and they explain this to Shaw and David.
I do think the Engineers or Elders or what ever would teach them a lot but then they would have a sinister plot for Shaw....
But David then unleashes hell on them and its from this we see a outbreak of something related to the Xeno but not a traditional one.
Just enough clues to allow us to connect the dots...

MemberNeomorphOct-09-2013 6:54 PMHi BigDave, great to see you! I agree that it would be great to see a Gigerish environment in P2. However, we all expect it to go a certain way, ie 'Shaw and Davids head arriving on the engineers homeworld....
Personally, I would like to see it deviate away from what we expect. I'm not entirely sure that I would like to see Shaw and David land on Heaven/Hell in a juggernaut and come across some friendly engineers, it would be too much like Avatar for my liking.
I'd even go as far as not showing where or what happened to Shaw and David atall. Leave it a mistery. Did they make it to Paradise? If so, What did they find?
Imo, the film should focus on another group, going to a distant, already colonized Weyland Yutani planet, where they discover ruins of an ancient engineer civilization.

MemberDeaconOct-10-2013 4:01 PM@Necronom 4
Well i think it would be great idea but then your idea could be implemented just as the Sacrificial Scene....
By that i think the idea is for David to take Shaw to the Engineers Home World but he would have his own Agenda... We could see Shaw arrive and see a place in semi ruin, and see great monuments or partial ones, see more Murals and Fresco's...
We dont have to have Engineers meet them and go through a explanation of their History, could do but maybe most of it could be shown as David interprets and reads some Manuscripts and Tablets found on Paradise, like the Sumerian ones, and as David goes on to explain to Shaw what he reads...
We cut to various cut scenes showing us, just as the Sacrificial Engineer scene was, where it can be used to show us the Engineer Culture and History maybe show us what Paradise was once like, maybe show us Engineers visiting worlds they seeded and teaching them things.
This would be the best way to show us the Engineers....
But also dont forget all bets are off once Shaw has to be put into Cryo Sleep, as we have to assume thats the only way she can make it, and only David would know how long the journey would take and he could tell Shaw anything he wants so that she has to face the fact she has to get into the Cryo Pods or face a slow death of starvation etc...
But no soon as she has, well David can do what he wants, go where he wants and do what he wants with Shaw also....
Maybe he may check out LV 426.... maybe he could get Shaw Face Hugged, with a Queen Chest Buster?
Then pop her back into Cryo Sleep and she could be none the wiser just as Ripley was in Alien 3.... and i say Queen because well it appears they take longer to gestate inside than the Drones do, again see Alien 3.
This could give a whole new meaning to the kind of hell that Ridley was on about....
In fact these things i am on about are all part of my draft i worked on its bits but never put together, i pondered David takes her to LV 426 and gets a specimen to face hug Shaw and then take her to Paradise, where i envisioned the Engineers detected something inside of her and Shaw the Xeno... and it reminded them of the Deacon they tried to create and they cut it out of Shaw....
Finally they have their Deacon so they thought..... and well the Queen is then released by David from a Stasis chamber and it unleash hell on the remainder of the Engineers....
I was going to maybe go further to suggest maybe David had set off the SOS on the Derelict... or at very least he caused a containment breach to allow the Eggs to become accessible.... kind of like he forgot to close the door after he got a Face Huger for Shaw... a door which Kane unfortunately was able to walk into....
But the Prometheus Viral site hinted that Weyland Industries was aware of a signal from LV 426, but that does not mean David could have gone there after and left the door open.....
I would had a lot of other ideas like have the end of the movie lead to a part 3 where we would find out more about Weyland Yutani Merger and the end of Part 3 would see a board room meeting were they give Ash his orders as he prepares for his mission to LV 426 on the Nostramo.
