David almost sounds like a psychopath. He does understand human emotions, if we can take him at face value. Even so, what is there to prevent him from doing truly bad things to others?
Yep, that's the point. He can perform tasks that people might find "unethical". A huge foreshadowing red flag right there. Also notice that it's only "unnecessary" violence that makes him sad, not violence in general.
@@seabreeze9743i think it's less of lack of emotion but rather lack of empathy. Paychopath have and understand human emotions but cannot actual feel them. Case in point, his relationship with Shaw. In a weird way, he seems to genuinely love her (making her poems, shrines, etc.) but also (spoiler alert) kills her and uses her body as a test subject to create the Xenomorphs
That is NOT the David we know from the movies. David in this video is David 8 while David from Prometheus and Covenant is the very first David robot. David 8 is based on the original David.
The most terrifying thing about the androids from the Alien franchise is they are working as intended. The ghost is in the machine but it's the ghost of extremely damaged people. Scott's vision future is a grimdark one. Narcissistic psychopaths have finally gained full influence and dominance over human society. However their subordinates have one niggling little flaw holding back their ambition: Occasional bouts of empathetic behavior. Which is seen as nothing more than weakness and is not desired. So these robber barons decided to fix that problem by creating artificial life free of those flaws. They make Psycho-bots on purpose because these are the ultimate vessels of their vision. The way they think ideal humanity should be. "No delusions of morality..." Now do you understand better why the Engineer did what he did? :)
Fassbender is fantastic in this because he feels both natural and disingenuous. He is fully acting the character, but the character is clearly lying for the sake of defending/justifying himself. He doesn't actually care about how "...distressing" some directives are, he only acknowledges so to save face. Same with the section where he talks about what makes him sad. He so clearly is just expressing a corporatized and funneled rendition of the emotion of sadness, nothing else.
This was made 12 years ago??? it looks absolutely perfect, like it was made today. actually nevermind that, its looks better than perfect, it looks **real**. that bit of machinery at the beginning straight up looks like real footage. Not "real set built for the purpose" real, but actually real, straight from the factory, or storage facility or whatever, where this is supposed to take place. (I'm pretty sure the carriage in front of the box containing David, the one with the rotating circle on it, is actually completely CGI, but its really hard to tell honestly. I wonder if the whole thing is cgi except David in the bag + the hand taking off the cover)
В чём-то именно эти актёры Майкл Фассбендер и Гай Пирс вытащили этот фильм Чужой: Завет (2017 год, режиссёр Ридли Скотт). С другой стороны такое ощущение, что Майкла Фассбендера и Гая Пирса где-то недооценивают, и этим актёрам не дают лучше раскрыть свои актёрские таланты во всей красе
This is impossible in robotics due to lack of muscle like actuators but in another video the idea is that Weyland Yutani has developed nano muscles in essence the greatest invention since the evolution of eukaryotes
That poverty is as old as humanity. So are war and cruelty. That's why David comes to hate human beings. Erase them from universe won't be an "unnecessary violence"
What a brilliant actor. One of the best in his generation.
Agreed
@@treadinglightly-gg9cc Totally agree too!
@@Daibhidh2004extremely totally agree too!
Of course. However, when will we see the 8th generation David?
ultimate platinum extremely totally agree too!
Why does this feel like a commercial WAY ahead of its time?
Because it's advertising an android. (only kidding)
Because this was back before it was in the Alien universe... and Disney buying Fox
Yeah, had the same thing. I mean, back then no one saw human robots coming - today they are ready to go into limited testing in households.
That was the intention I suppose.
Seeing this for the first time in 2024. As a fan of all the films ...I am shook
same bro
@@jessesteelman1238I am still obsessed with this movie after years and I think I am just starting to truly understand what happened...kind of
So you’re telling me that from over 10 years ago this video only has 10k views?
20th Century Studios Philippines only has 73.5k subscribers in 2024
Almost 50k now
@@WaterBottlePro-vi2phcrazy how one year can change a lot!!
Prometheus was 12 years ago, my God. Time has come and gone so quickly.
What a brilliant promo.
begging for fox to let this man finish his trilogy 🙏
all they needed to do was put him in the newest one like they did Ash
real.

All robots are psychopaths. The biggest hallmark of a psychopath is lack of emotions, which robots share but to a greater extent since they have none.

A robot that is emotional ? Now that is dangerous.

yes, david is the creator of apple
He totally lies about what he sees in the ink blots. Hence the finger movement.
Pretty cool :)

Fassbender sells it but the inconsistent writing ruins these films.
This should be real...if not. MAKE IT REAL
almost there...
real
Hmmm that new automobile smell, rubber tires, chemically treated carpets and leathers
No don't let David take care of the kids 🥲
