Official "Ridley Scott's Prometheus" Discussion Thread (Spoilers)

Re: Prometheus SUPER Spoilers!

One thing I have forgotten amongst my other questions/observations is this:

Did Shaw know the exact details of why Holloway died? Like I know she understood he became infected, but did she realize it was David that infected him?

Sorry if this appears dumb of me but there was so much to take in visually and plot wise I can't recall if she got to the bottom of it?

I'm not too sure; but I think David tells her this. But I know she doesn't put 2 and 2 together.

No I highly doubt it. She wouldn't be saying sorry to him zipping his head up in a bag if she did.
I think the reason as mentioned above she's so eager to go to wherever it was the Engineers came from is because she wants to know the reason her and the rest of the crew were sent to a weapons facility which in the end lead to the death of her boyfriend.

David is a very sinister character and seemed to have his own ambitions and motivations as well as a deep interest in the Engineers and without being human probably doesn't care much about killing off people to find his answers. He also seemed to take a dislike to Holloway also, especially after the conversation regarding why he was created.

The question I want an answer to I hadn't even remembered was mentioned in another thread.
Why was Janek acting so suspicious with Fifeld and the other guy who's name escapes me when in the end nothing came of that and he actually turned out to be somewhat of a hero. Is that just bad writing or was there a purpose ?. It seemed quite intentional, surely they didn't miss that.

I really want to watch this again , i think I'll be seeing this in the cinema one last time.

I don't think she ever finds out. I can't recall David telling her. David tended to talk in metaphorical talk anyway.

Re: Official Alien Prequel/Prometheus Discussion Thread

Ok. I was picturing the film would end with some god like thing with lights and big crazy spirital stuff.

If you go into the cinema with an open mind you Liked the AVP Ending you will love the ending scene (hopefully).

AvP didn't invent that. And it's done MUCH better in Prometheus.



...and A.L.I.E.N, I see you changed your avatar?

I'm with Greygoose on loving the way this has left so many questions unanswered. It leaves so much to think about which I think is brilliant , I was worried this film was going to ruin the mystery behind the whole universe but it's just made it that much more interesting for me.

I don't think he saw the need in telling her. I think out of everyone on board he actually seemed to like her the most and shared her passion , unfortunately he also happened to murder her boyfriend.

We are treated to new ideas in a new 'Prometheus' universe with the prospect of further sequels whilst the mystery still remains.

There we go , another theory. He might have fancied her.

The music in that scene is so ____ing amazing. God it's just beautiful.

Like the "BWOOOEEEOOW"ish noise from the Alien trailer, but much darker and more subtle.

Maybe they'll honeymoon on the beach resort planet of LV-426

Re: Official Alien Prequel/Prometheus Discussion Thread

Ok everyone, I don't want to spoil the film for myself, but I just want to know if there are xenomorphs in the film. If so I'll save my money for the figures. If not I will use it for something else. So just tell me..... Are there Xenos?
