My favourite scene would have to be David's introduction. It's pure visual storytelling; we get to know a character with barely any dialogue as he goes about his business. We understand his desire to be human and be accepted as such (and later on his bitterness at not being so), that he has human traits - he gets bored, he idolises, has an idea of self-image. He's nosy. Ridley also attempts to set up his storyline as a translator. All of this done almost wordlessly, save for "the trick, William Potter, is not minding that it hurts". However, we later learn that David does hurt and is probably more fallible and human than the rest of the crew.

I'm looking forward to seeing more character development from David in Covenant, and how he relates to his twin. Will he have become harder in isolation? Does he miss human life? Has he dropped the pretence entirely? All questions that are probably more interesting to me than any of the lore surrounding the Engineers or Xenomorph.

My favorite scene from Prometheus was the scene where Janek, Chance, and Ravel sacrifice themselves to stop the Juggernaught from taking off....I'm a sucker for those type of sacrificial moments in movies.

I'm mostly looking for a more substantial link to the Alien universe from Covenant. I don't think it will happen in this movie, but hopefully it will do well enough to make another that will connect all the dots.

My favourite scene is when Vickers reveals that Weyland is her daddy. It was like when Vader tells Luke he is his father. Such a profound and pivotal moment which goes on to impact the plot in so many ways.

I'm most looking forward to learning that Shaw is finally dead -- and not a minute too soon.

I love when Janek asks Vickers if she is a robot. lol "And if you can't be with the one you love, then love the one you're with." But my all time favorite part is when that alien placenta bursts after-birth juice all over Shaw! P.S. I still don't get this exp. point stuff??? Been active here for little over 3 months & NADA!?

Like the last comment, my favorite part in Prometheus is Shaw's c-section!  That was quite original.  She did not hesitate to get that thing out of her!  But it gave me more chills to see how big it grew at the end of the film.  I need to see if Covenant will bridge the gap for me.  I need to know what the Engineers were planning.  And of course I hope to see new kinds of Aliens.

My favourite scene from prometheus was the scene where shaw removed the trilobite. Really gritty and unpleasant. I'm most looking forward to the new characters :)

Favourite scene is the jockey chair rising from the floor, and ship making its way for take-off. In Covenant,most looking forward to seeing David get his head re-attached.

I love the opening vista visuals and planet design of Prometheus. I'm most excited to see a merging of Prometheus and Alien design and themes!

A prime example of how to NOT make a plot twist. Ridiculous scene

My favorite scene in Prometheus had to be the deacon birth at the end. Even though it's literally the last scene in the movie I thought it was extremely cool and made me hope a sequel would be on the horizon, which ended up happening ;) 

In Alien Covenant, im most interested in seeing the xenomorphs and Neomorphs. Their conception and when they are fully grown. I hope a fight between both species happens at some point. That would be amazing.

Lol, I know. On a serious note though, the "pups" were the only good thing to come out of that film for me -- not even the scene (e.g. Fifield's howling was out of place), just that piece of tech.

Fave scene in Prometheus - any with Fassbender.

Looking forward to Covenant - more Fassbender.

My favorite scene was when David activated the Engineers' hologram. It was a beautiful sequence I loved David's fascination with the images. I'm really excited to see the progression of the backstory of the engineer and I really hope the Xeno is reintroduced into this installment. I'm really curious to see the Neo but I've been waiting 20 years to see a Xenomorph on screen.

My favorite scene in Prometheus happens during the c-section when the embryonic sack bursts above Shaw in the MedPod and the fluid falls into her wound and all over her stomach. Seeing the squirming trylobite covered in blood and then the subsequent stapling of Shaw's stomach made my jaw hit the floor in theaters, and I still think this scene is just as impactful today.

I'm most excited about seeing the variations on "chest-bursting" in Alien: Covenant...the back-burster scene in the trailer looks so effing scary and awesome and I can't wait to see how this and the other scenes unfold!

 

(Congrats, NeoMorph!!)

I like when the Magellan/Prometheus approaches LV-223 and enters the atmosphere with the clouds and lightning sound effects + score.
