I don't think it was accidental. Ut was very intensional. The alien in the beginning sacrifices himself to provide the genetic material to create life on earth.
I think it was in a deleted scene where there were other aliens watching him before he drank the black goo. They left in a ship before he died. It most definitely was an intentional ritual
I couldn't stop laughing, when Shaw was able to jump and run, right after invasive surgery! I KNOW, this is science fiction, but having had to undergo an operation AND going thru the arderous time of reconvalscence, it just seemed TOO far out.😂
This was definitely no accident. Just imagine. . . OOH NOO I accidentally traveled across the universe and happened to land on this perfectly habitable planet, and accidentally drank this life sacrificing drink in the exact place and time that just happens to sprout intelligent life through the universe! I didn’t mean to do all that, it was an accident I swear!
Perfectly habitable planet? Earth was utterly uninhabitable until microbial life forms shat out enough oxygen gases for it to become what we now think of as habitable. The Engineer shouldn't have been able to breathe the toxic mix of chemicals present on a lifeless earth. Alternatively, if they want to pretend that there WAS oxygen on earth at that time, then it would HAVE to be constantly renewed by life forms present there (atmospheric oxygen is too reactive to remain in the atmosphere for very long), which we don't see. There are no plants and no algae blooms visible anywhere, so this is DEFINITELY a planet without any atmospheric oxygen.
My guy was just tryna get wasted on some alien drug shit but accidently poured the liquid specifically designed to disintegrate their bodies and spread their DNA all over the place with the intent to sprout life. Imagine if that were actual human lore lmao
This film had some good ideas but the plot had so many holes in it that made it a joke. The problem is that film execs only care about profits and not about making a movie with a reasonably good plot.
Tell me why you think they were gas powered, please. They might have been nuclear electric in the movie. Speaking of the movie, I consider it eye candy, production values at least are good. Even with plot holes.
On another note I think the Architects were a race with brilliant scientists that specialized in creating life however they were stupid enough to try to weaponize one of their creations for the sole intent on destroying another one of their creations.
Imagine the beings you are about to wipe out from the face of their planet because they are a failed experiment shows up to your military installation waking you up from your nap asking you to help them live forever. He was like "bro, we were just about to kill you all"

There's a lot of unreasonable hate for this film. It is actually masterful and very underrated at the least. People seem to find reasons to dismiss anything new in an old lore. Fantastic addition to a great franchise. Just another story for people that are interested in this universe.
It was not a mistake. In fact if you see the followups you will understand that humans were never the outcome. They (humanoid aliens) wanted to develop the Xenomorphs and humans were supposed to be the intermediary. Something goes wrong with the containment and the humanoid aliens were nearly wiped out and went into hibernation. When they were awakened in the end they realized the mission was not complete and the human development was advancing which was never their original intention. So they tried to launch the craft to deliver the black gooey payload.
I recommend looking into the dialogue of the engineer and David that was cut and never made it into the movie. It's more biblical. They indeed wanted to create humanity, but humans weren't acting properly and weren't living based off their initial teachings. Humans were way too violent and destructive to Eden(referring to Earth). The engineer doesn't mention Jesus by name, but he says we took one of yours, taught him what to teach the people and sent him back to Eden(Earth), only for him to be killed. That's why they made Shaw as a Christian. They cut all that out to leave it open to speculations like your own', which I think was the right thing to do, but some of the other dialogue they cut should have been left as it answered many questions from the entire franchise.
I agree with the comment above mine. It was even broken down that the facehuggers were on that isolated planet as more of a military base, not where the creators actually lived. They used the xenomorph as a weapon, like we do guns or nuclear bombs, and kept the weapons far from their own homes knowing th dangers that is posed. The entire purpose of their mission was to end life on earth because we humans did not end up the way the creators intended and they "needed" to wipe us out.
I loved this movie. Too bad people didn't like it and they made Covenant. I would have loved to see Shaw go to the Engineer planet and learn how humans were created. Still hoping Scott makes a true sequel, disowning Covenant.
For me the big question Shaw wanted answered was They created Humans and then changed their minds. Why? That is a profound question I would love to see explored. I would love for the Engineers to have internal politics and complexity and a source for why things changed for humanity and not a simple answer.
So, her idea was to go to their home planet in a commandeered warship armed with enough bioweapons to wipe out a species, fully expecting them to not re-initiate their plan to wipe out humanity because she is owed an answer? Do you people really not see why this movie is stupid?
its called prometheus because in greek mythology a titan named prometheus gave humans fire leading to them being able to evolve or atleast thats what i think
I had my avp phase twice , love the entire storyline . So interesting. Just watching so many videos about the lore , Prometheus and alien Covenants was so good . Watched them all a couple times
I like how they explain the purpose of the mission and why they're 2 years out in space after they get there, as if it wasn't covered corner to corner multiple times over to the entire crew prior to setting off.
I also agree that it takes away from the reality of the world they are creating, however I also think about other movies where people are awoken from cryosleep EARLY due to various reasons, plus you must be groggy as fuck waking up from that long of a sleep, they are even vomiting which shows the impact it has on their bodies/minds, PLUS they have to explain to us as the viewer what the heck is going on lol.
@@SobeCrunkMonsterit bothers me SO MUCH MORE that in the original alien movies, the scientist and military personnel were so intelligent and didn't do stupid shit like take their f*cking helmets off on an alien planet or talk to an alien like it was a cute lil puppy. They used to make the characters actually intelligent, Ripley for one was someone to actually look up to. I absolutely love the franchise, even these new Prometheus movies, but they should have written the characters with much more intelligence and depth. Very frustrating
People talk about the Xenomorphs, Engineers, Humans and Predators, but everyone misses that the Androids are seemingly predisposed towards God complexes. The only one who hasn't tried to kill his coworkers was Bishop. The thing I find interesting is that the Blade Runner franchise is quietly part of the Alienverse, from what I understand. I wonder if the Replicant situation affected the way Androids saw humanity or were they just programmed to be amoral.
I hope a new movie from the trilogy will come out soon. I read somewhere there will be one coming out focused more on David which would be awesome and scary
The alien in the beginning is a war criminal who received two choices. Either die in his home planet or sacrifice his body to create life on a new planet.
I am so happy for that woman that was able to fight her way to that operation machine and get that thing out of her. I would have been so relieved to have it out of me.
They didn't need to explain the xenomorphs. Yet they clumsily tried to anyway. If this movie was a standalone and not part of the Aliens universe, it would be a solid 9/10.
What makes me mad is that they abandoned this franchise this movies sequel (covenant) came 5 years later and it’s already been 5 years since that sequel came out. I really want that last installment and learn more about the creators and maybe who created them.
The title sounds like Lord Shiva Correct me if I'm wrong.. Im new to Hinduism anyways.. But Lord Shiva drank poison to save the world from a demon It turned his throat blue and he had to be comforted by his wife and a snake to be pit around his neck to ease the burn
Moral of the story: Do *_NOT_* run in the same direction as the ginourmos object about to crush you. Maybe try running to the left or dare I say .. even the right .. of the path of the rolling death machine.
No it was NOT poison and this guys is one of the Engineer species of people (not alien) as you can see the large ship that dropped him off there, they are the creators of life. So they were inhabiting life on that planet. It was NOT accidental it was pretty obvious he was doing this on purpose and knew what was going to happen.
2:06 So, imagine you get on an interstellar ship and you spend 2 years in cryogenic sleep... and no one even told you what the heck you're doing out there. And then you lot start debating whether you should even be out there or not.
Not being petty but if I was to put a crew together for a discovery mission like this this would be my last pick actually not even close or if my purpose was to make a mess and fuck up be my dream team. I'd get a few David's to do the whole thing good ones not alien making ones.
It was not accidentally, it was deliberate... He sacrificed ( or was sacrificed ) to bring live on this planet by dropping his own active DNA in the water.
I don' t think it was a sacrifice . He thought he was drinking something else . His DNA was destroyed by the poison . So , what was it supposed to be if not a poison ? It's a very puzzeling movie . Is it based on a known religion in real life ?
It wasn't a 2-year sleep it was 2 years 4 months 18 days 36 hours & so many minutes + or - of sleep! The 36 hours really bugs me because it should have been 19 days and 8 hours!!
It wasn’t an accident at all. The Engineer that drank the “black goo” did so as a form of punishment by the other Engineers (hence why they remained present until he actually drank it). “Prometheus” is the name of the Titan God that, according to Greek mythology, gifted humanity with fire after stealing it from the Gods. He was then cast out of Olympus as punishment.
This video is made by a person who has not looked into the lore of the Engineers and basing it only on the theatrical movie edit. There are over 30 deleted scenes, interviews, and other material that deep dive who the Engineers are. The movie was originally written to have heavy ties Christian references but the final edit removed nearly all of them and how they relate to the Engineers. Considering the Engineers were heavily motivated by their religion, removing all that from the movie made it a nonsensical mess. I don't blame the author of this video for coming up with their assumption based on the theatrical release. It's just a shame that all that really big idea storyline was cut out.
It was not accidental. They are a deliberate creation cult with aims. They create the Alien Plague also to destroy their creation they were not pleased with but that creation got out of their control with Davids further help and animus towards mankind.
It takes a strong will to go through all of time and not lose your mind. I'd endlessly help all good species that accept the help. Not forced or some weird takeover.
would it have killed them to give even a small amount of insight why they wanted to end humanity and why they got stuck on that military base and WHAT was the darn squid creature all about???
There’s actually some deleted scenes and shit where the engineer actually talks about the why of the whole thing, I can’t remember the reason. Also the second part is called Alien: Covenant.
Lol because it's basically crap, corny storyline, ridiculous plots and the complete absence of mystery intrigue and thrill of the first two movies. But if it's your favourite then nothing else matters .
I really liked this movie. I wished they followed Shaw and her journey in covenant instead of what we got. Keeping her as the main lead of these prequels. I hate that most Alien movies never have more surviving members but the characters in this film were really likable. Very reminiscent of Alien 1 and 2. In regards to the Engineer at the beginning of the film, I do believe that the 1st Engineer came to Earth and did sacrifice itself but wasn't aware of what the side effects would be on the planet. I think the other Engineers found out - learning of the development of the offspring of life (humans) on the planet and became enraged by it. Thinking it was against their possible code, so wanted to eradicate human life.
This scene comes from the oldest creation story of all humanity. In the Atrahasis Creation and Flood Story, it states that Enki needed another "God" that had to be sacrificed "with all his intelligence" in order to provide the necessary DNA(I'm assuming) to combine with the DNA of the Earth primitives so that they were able to bioengineer/create man.(In their image) Annunaki = Elohim(plural)
Actually David saved humanity from the engineers when he exterminated them. Rhe Engineers did like Earth Humans. They were disappointed by their creation.
I don't think it was accidental. Ut was very intensional. The alien in the beginning sacrifices himself to provide the genetic material to create life on earth.
I never freaking understood
It was intentional.
I think it was in a deleted scene where there were other aliens watching him before he drank the black goo. They left in a ship before he died. It most definitely was an intentional ritual

Actually the alien just need to sh!t on the river stream to spread his DNA.
I like to think that the Predators killed the engineers on the planet.
If you are going to wake up an engineer, make sure to offer strong coffee at first. ☕️ No wonder he got pissed 😅
I love watching aliens they cute and dangerous little baby and human
It was not accidental. They are a deliberate creation cult with aims. They create the Alien Plague also to destroy their creation they were not pleased with but that creation got out of their control with Davids further help and animus towards mankind.
There's always that one greedy goof who does something stupid and Risks everyone life🙄🤣🤣🤣
It takes a strong will to go through all of time and not lose your mind. I'd endlessly help all good species that accept the help. Not forced or some weird takeover.
Such an underrated movie
would it have killed them to give even a small amount of insight why they wanted to end humanity and why they got stuck on that military base and WHAT was the darn squid creature all about???
watch the 2nd part
for that
@@vipinsingh4383 where? i wasnt aware there was a second part
There’s actually some deleted scenes and shit where the engineer actually talks about the why of the whole thing, I can’t remember the reason.
Also the second part is called Alien: Covenant.
I'm pretty sure it had to do with inflation and resulting budget cuts.
Ikr
One of my favourite films.
One of my FAVORITE sci-fi movies. I won’t ever understand why this movie got so much hate.
Lol because it's basically crap, corny storyline, ridiculous plots and the complete absence of mystery intrigue and thrill of the first two movies.
But if it's your favourite then nothing else matters .
What was his workout routine tho? That contribution alone will save man kind…
What would be the first thing that you would do if you found out that you were an alien?
Use my superpowers to make money and then go for an MBA.lol
Cool!
start killing everyone and preaching how humans should even not exist in first place
Feel justified that I think the rest of humanity are morons.
Being alien on earth is possible as humans dont have any benefit into the foodchain.
The ending was incredible to watch it mutate into the what we know as Alien.
I really liked this movie. I wished they followed Shaw and her journey in covenant instead of what we got. Keeping her as the main lead of these prequels. I hate that most Alien movies never have more surviving members but the characters in this film were really likable. Very reminiscent of Alien 1 and 2. In regards to the Engineer at the beginning of the film, I do believe that the 1st Engineer came to Earth and did sacrifice itself but wasn't aware of what the side effects would be on the planet. I think the other Engineers found out - learning of the development of the offspring of life (humans) on the planet and became enraged by it. Thinking it was against their possible code, so wanted to eradicate human life.
Elba: Are you a Robot?
Theron: In my Office. 10 mins.
She should have killed the squid like creature. At the end it reminded me off the film Predator.
The alien is looking fine thou
🤣🤣🤣
I was surprised I when learned this movie has a connection to the Alien series
This is great because when I watched the movie I was so lost 😂😅
I just watched a whole movie in 20 minutes lol
When I saw this movie, I had no clue it was connected to the alien franchise, the ending was so epic omg
Scott had said before release that it was supposed to be it's own thing. Honestly disappointed that he lied and tied it with Alien
man there’s so many theories to this movie . it’s crazy how the writers actually made this
I love this movie !
This scene comes from the oldest creation story of all humanity. In the Atrahasis Creation and Flood Story, it states that Enki needed another "God" that had to be sacrificed "with all his intelligence" in order to provide the necessary DNA(I'm assuming) to combine with the DNA of the Earth primitives so that they were able to bioengineer/create man.(In their image)
Annunaki = Elohim(plural)
Elohim , Ello to him is singular to me lol
Actually David saved humanity from the engineers when he exterminated them. Rhe Engineers did like Earth Humans. They were disappointed by their creation.
I absolutely loved this movie.
Masterpiece
One of my favorite movies!
I wish the alien species would share their workout regimen
If you watched the movie, you know it wasn't accidental.
