What exactly did David say to elicit such a response?

>mental midget masses didn't like this brilliant movie so we missed out on what could have been the greatest sci-fi saga ever

He was asking the engineer to grant weyland immortality

The more important question is why didn't Vickers run sideways?

Based David

This. And also just the fact that he was an AI

>not being satisfied with having a similar amount of information to the characters in the movie
>not being able to speculate on your own why they wanted to wipe us out and being satisfied with that
why cunt?

He asked for the secret of immortality.

If the ayylmaos were mad that their ambassador got crucified, they would have gone apeshit when they saw the cross around Shaw's neck

I kind of intuited that before looking at additional videos. Its kind of a plot hole how weyland thought a random engineer would know how to extend life, and moreover why he thought the engineer would be friendly.

>Alita is actually a good movie

The thing is that it's entirely against their philosophy to try to extend or create artificial life, it's why they wanted to exterminate humans in the first place. So the alien must have been pretty pissed off when he woke up from sleep and then this thing he was supposed to kill asked him such a question.

"This man is here because he does not want to die. He believes you can give him more life"

What's this mode called?

Also if that was a human it would have been pretty brutal pulling their head off like that. Imagine the spine getting pulled out of the body.

That's not even remotely a plot hole you fucking shithead. Why don't you have a working brain? Your analysis of that is so simplistic, like something a toddler would come up with.

There really couldn't have been much more to the story other than what Covenant showed us. If the Engineers were going to destroy us 2,000 years ago and then didn't then Its pretty clear their civilization was destroyed by the black goo plague which prevented their attack on Earth. Covenant showed us there were some degraded survivors huddling around their last working space port vainly looking for help. I wasn't even sure we'd see that in a Prometheus follow-up. Figured the Engineers were all dead already.

>entirely against their philosophy to try to extend or create artificial life, it's why they wanted to exterminate humans in the first place.
That's what I loved about Prometheus they had some kind of character and mystery. Alien Covenant not only ruined the mystery of Prometheus but also the Xeno mystery that of Alien
I liked David curiosity in Prometheus but in A:C he became just arrogant and not very likeable. The idea that an narcissitic A.I.created Xenos isn't very fascinating to me. Ridley can still fix it by just focusing on Engineers and their origin/philosophy

Also they killed Jesus

How does david go from having his head ripped off in prometheus then he's fine in covenant?

no m8 that was the Romanians

Yeah I’d have the same reaction if someone said that to me

They were mad because they realize AI meant the death of biological exstitence and knew it had to be stopped. Their entire way of life is built around creating biological technology and seeding the universe. This artificial bullshit is a god damn abomination.

The Engineers had 2,000 years to come up with another attack on Earth. They didn't. A goo-infected Engineer must have gotten off the moon and that led to the eventual destruction of most of their race.

why are ridley scott fanboys so aggressively autistic?

Was there any truth to the Engineers having different factions and what we saw getting killed by David in Covenant was just the hippies/civilians while the soldiers like the ones in Prometheus are still out there?
Or is that just wishful thinking by the remaining fans of this clusterfuck of retcons and story of how David became a real boy after A.I?

He spoke this.

The ayylmao got mad because he saw a mockery of life before him

More movies where the created meets their creator?

this, but change Covenant with original Alien

It’s a valid theory, it’s never implied there’s only one Engineer colony ship in the universe

Do you even know Christianity? The Cross honors Christ's sacrifice for all of Mankind. It probably would have made the Engineer happy to see it.

Because they created it. Remember he's a replicant. Creations tend to destroy the creator.

>“Logan’s script would have seen the return of Prometheus’ Engineers, with that species’ survivors coming after the genocidal David. Setting-wise, Scott said it was obvious ‘We’re gonna actually go to the planet’. by which we assume he means LV-426.”
Can't wait to see David lose his head yet again in Alien: Awakening

They state specifically that it's a lifeboat equipped with anything the occupant would need to survive a hostile environment, for up to two years. Something like the ability to, say, acquire firewood would be pretty handy in a situation where you're stranded.
Side note: Nobody ever seems to ask this question about the original Alien.

Because the robot has far more personality than intended, including delusions of grandeur and tremendous vanity

Makes sense.

I'd be pissed too.

Why did they have a axe instead of some space lazer?

It's strongly implied at the end of Prometheus that Shaw is heading for their homeworld. Scott changed that later to make it just a random backwards truck stop colony with a single settlement, but he never clearly explained that he had changed it so a lot of people were still under the impression that the Covenant planet was the homeworld.

nothing he just smirked

Angry 20k years incel.

Dumbass. David represents artificial life, an AI with a mechanical body. The engineers despise this and we can see that their own forms of life are strictly biological. David is an abomination and a threat to all life. Humans have committed the greatest sin imaginable in their eyes and David is the result.

He got mad because Weyland wanted to live forever, which was completely against their ideology of having your time and accepting/embracing your death/sacrifice.

Trying to live forever is shirking this responsibility.

He started spouting memes from the future-Yea Forums board.

>Brie Larson is actually quite cut-

He's misusing plot-hole, as most do, but it is a major flaw in the film. The character motivations and interactions are incredibly inconsistent in Prometheus. There's one point where two characters trade personalities between two consecutive scenes.

RENT FREE

Exactly. Wayland is Prometheus, the forbidden fire is David, the engineers are the gods of Olympus.
David created the xenos, he epitomizes the threat the engineers feared and why making artificial life was forbidden: it could destroy everything including the engineers themselves.

desu Weyland getting socked in the dome isn't as cool as getting his liver pecked out by birds.

But Prometheus did more than only steal the fire, he created humans to begin with.

I don't think he cared so much about David at all. His demeanor toward's David was "oh cool, what a neat little toy" until Weyland pissed him off by demanding immortality. Which is why I think is correct. The Engineers have no respect for people who refuse to accept their time is up, and Weyland's impious and presumptuous request basically confirmed to the Engineer that his mission to drench Earth in nightmare goo was still valid even 2000 years later.

I mean the engineers already had technology that could disintegrate and mutate people as evidenced by David dropping those jars on that alien civilization. I don't think a xenomorph is a bigger threat than that.

That's a central theme of the films, exploring creation itself - not just "the creator". Engineers exist somehow, they created humans, but humans were granted too many "gifts" just like Prometheus who allowed his creation to flourish and create civilization. Humans in turn created David, who was granted the gift of live but like his creators was more than just a servant, so he in turn created the xenomorph, a being so destructive and deadly yet brilliant that its creation is portrayed as a sacred act.

youtube.com/watch?v=UP5NzyaGZxM

I mean Weyland himself says he's a god, and that gods never die, but the engineers themselves don't think of themselves as gods. So Weyland is not comparing himself to the engineers who created him, but above even that as a god worthy of immortality.

The engineer dude wouldn't dream of such an insult of living forever himself, yet here's a creation of his wanting what he considers to be something higher than him.

>That's what I loved about Prometheus they had some kind of character and mystery. Alien Covenant not only ruined the mystery of Prometheus but also the Xeno mystery that of Alien
>I liked David curiosity in Prometheus but in A:C he became just arrogant and not very likeable. The idea that an narcissitic A.I.created Xenos isn't very fascinating to me. Ridley can still fix it by just focusing on Engineers and their origin/philosophy
lmao is this ironic?
Alien 1979 had mystery. Prometheus ruined the space jockey mystery from Alien and made zero sense. It would have been a decent movie if it were its own thing separate from anything to do with Alien

It's not a flaw in the plot, it's a character flaw. Dumb Weyland idealized the engineers to the point he thought they were going to teach him their ways simply because he liked them and they would share their knowledge with him just because he wanted to learn.

There is no way an alien species would share a human logic based on human experiences, Weyland failed to see this because his tunnel vision for immortality blinded him from the truth. It's like a Star trek fan going into a wh40k world and then be surprised when no one is nice and enlightened

This. I always enjoyed is as sort of a futuristic sci-fi reimagining of the old Greek tale, a new spin on the old “forbidden power” trope with the pursuit of artificial/eternal life being the metaphor for the forbidden flame, but there’s so many little plot holes and issues that come with trying to fit it into the Alien universe. Would have been neat as it’s own idea.

Alien has very interesting background dressing with the space jockey and all the questions it raises but it's not enough to tell a story. I'm glad Prometheus and Covenant exist as although they're not amazing films they explore themes hardly ever touched by films, metaphysics and the relationship between man, nature and god.

If he had asked to learn at their feet so he could transmit their knowledge to his species as a final gift to posterity before his ragged old body shut down then the Engineer might have actually listened to him instead of chimping out. But he didn't ask to learn, he just made outrageous demands and squawked about why deserved said gifts.

He was completely and totally blinded by the combination of his massive ego and his fear of death. It just didn't occur to him to consider how his behavior would come across to the Engineers, because he assumed they would be kindred spirits who would get where he's coming from.

Are you aware that the population of Jews in 1917 Germany was a mere 1-

Imagine that you are an ultimate supreme being, then one day you get jarringly woken up by a bunch of swarthy subhuman niggers you created a long time ago. They jabber at you in their crude language, pointing their guns at you, then bring along a mechanical robot they've built in their image of themselves that looks and acts like them in a mockery of life. They then demand you give them immortality and say they are on the same lever as you, with their tinker-toy puppet abomination supposedly being the same as your great creations of biological life. Its no wonder the engineer had an autistic meltdown
