Everyone Was Wrong! I Discovered The Real Meaning of Prometheus!

David didn't "create" the XX121 xenomorph. He reverse engineered his own version.

Please tell me it didn't take you 12 years to figure out why the engineer killed Weyland with David's head. That was obvious.

There is a deleted scene in which the engineer explains the whole story in a two-minute dialogue with Wayland, they should never have taken it out, that would have lifted the film to a whole different level

Prometheus crew carbon dated the bodies and were dead 2000 yrs ago. That could debunk your theory

In reality, the engineers wanted to destroy humanity 2000 years ago, long before the creation of AI, when the son of one of them was crusified by us. (This scene was planned in the script)

I want to express a huge THANK YOU to the 18 thousand viewers who watched my Prometheus video within its first week, and I've reached over 1,000 SUBSCRIBERS on my channel! Initially, I thought even 100 views would make me happy, considering it's been over two years since my last video, and I wasn't sure if anyone would still be around. I'm pleasantly surprised and grateful for the support! Starting afresh feels amazing, and I'm thrilled to create content for an audience once again. I'm super excited and energized to work on the next video, which is already in progress! On a side note, "Prometheus Revelations Part 2" will be released around the launch of Alien: Romulus in August. And stay tuned for my next video, which will delve into the world of X-MEN!

Great to see you back at it! And this is another excellent video! You haven't missed a step, my friend! Can't wait for part 2! 😆👍🏾

This was goddamn incredible. The humor, the editing, the commentary. HOW do you only have 1.3k subs!?

I want my 32 minutes back with an apology!

I like to think the Engineers are the ultimate answer to the Fermi Paradox - the Xenomorph is their cosmic speed bump. The Xenomorph poses this challenge to any interstellar race: Is your race wise enough to avoid them as soon as they make contact, or will you be destroyed by your own hubris? Then when they see our AI, the answer to that question is even more clearly “No”.

Just because the earlier scripts didn't have the themes that you thought doesn't mean they weren't in the final film, art's meaning can be found in the process of creating it, sometimes the artist only discovers what they are trying to say after they have said it. Behind-the-scenes rewrites may bear out this angle. The Engineers would be aware that all intelligent species go through a similar evolution and, if left unchecked or unguided, will eventually reach a technological singularity that threatens all life in the galaxy. Humanity rejected the guidance and was scheduled for eradication. We are shown this in the next movie. David, the product of our technological singularity, wipes out one of the civilizations that was guided by the Engineers. The civilization even has a Roman aesthetic to drive home the point that they were contacted at the same time in their technological evolution, bat also to indicate that the Engineers stalled that civilization's technological progress. The Engineers slated humanity for eradication because humanity was not controllable but the clean up crew had a weapons malfunction. This is also alluding to the Fermi paradox, civilizations are deliberately kept at low technological levels to prevent the galaxy's life being wiped out by rogue AI. We slipped through the cracks and have come to embody that threat.

If you want to see Ridley Scots AI take and warning for the future, unleashed from the Alien story watch his incredible “raised by wolves”

I love Prometheus! The REAL problem was that Prometheus raised so many questions and promised so much that Covenant just didn't deliver! If Covenant had delivered the potential Prometheus promised us, the public oppinion about that storyline would be praised nowadays. However, Covenant explained nearly nothing, tried to keep the answers for other installments anda almost killed the franchise. Don't try to fool the fans! Deliver the goods! Look what's going on at Marvel an Lucasfilm... do the opposite!!!

The reason to destroy humanity cannot be the invention of AI. The plan started 1st century AD, something went wrong in the preparation and only one engineer survived in cryosleep for more than 2k years

I agree with the idea. I thought further on this and did some research to add: Xenomorophs in gigers art are "bio- mechanical" which is the fusion of biological and artificial. This always indicated that the aliens were engineered and created, rather than just being an existing lifeform. Also, the aliens have acidic blood and are silicon based lifeforms, The androids muscles, skin and flesh are also silicon based. The engineers are an organic lifeform. We know this because we see one drinking the black goo and the body breaking down into the water showing a strand of dna. However we can see that much of the engineer technology from the flight controls, space suits, and possibly the black goo itself is a fusion of organic and artificial. We dont know exactly what aspects of the xenomorphs biology is fully organic. The androids appear organic but we know are in fact fully artificial including the brain. Inside the head chamber in the murals We see an xenomorph like creature, which means the engineers had made one before. I think they created an xenomorph but in doing so they created a part organic part artificial creature, with all the biological drives, and no psychological conflicts like morality or emotion. That creature then began to do what any organic creature will do and that is multiply and survive. This is ultimately what makes the xenomorphs the perfect organism, they will relentlessly multiply and kill to survive, with the calculating, unconflicted intelligence of a machine and the drive of a living organism. Engineers made this mistake and paid for it, now humans are potentially opening those doors again. There is a danger with AI. Where humans learn and develop because of our curiosity, passions and intrigued, An AI learns to gather data, to become more efficient for a certain task or objective. An AI has no emotion or natural curiosity so development is entirely objective orientated. This restricts AI from creative or compassionate thought instead making their thought process linear and recall based only. David can play the piano flawlessly. But the skill is programmed, not learnt so it has none of the human element. You start crossing biological drives with artificial thinking and it opens up doors to a species will stop at nothing to assure its survival. Even if it means eradicating any other species that could pose any kind of potential threat. Also " why does he want to live forever" the engineers recognise life and death as part of being an organic creature, the one that drinks the black goo I think was old or sick and this is there way of returning there bodys to nature.

Prometheus is a take on the Sumerian tablets and the Annunaki. Also Scott done explained the "Vision of the gods" where these creator gods can literally see the "aura" of living beings. The sleeping engineer instantly saw David was a dead soulless entity and destroyed it and it's creator Weyland.

"A king has his reign, and then he dies. It's inevitable. That is natural order of things." This line is the core of the plot! "Anything else?", "No"....

This movie frustrated me so much. I was so excited for this to come out. It was beautiful cinematically but I didn’t give a shit about any of the characters. The story didn’t make sense in many scenes. I have rewatched it several times thinking maybe it would grow on me…but it really hasn’t.

I think Prometheus is brilliant. I watched it back then with my boyfriend in the cinema as I only do with science fiction or fantasy movies. And this film kept me busy for weeks. The atmosphere was so brilliant, the aliens which looked so strange. Okay, I am one of the few that liked Alien part 4. I was so keen on the next movie. But Covenant was not so good. It was in my opinion boring. I thought that Scott was taking to much credit to the audience.

I always felt that the engineers decided to destroy humanity because they realized humans were an inherently flawed dangerous life form. I loved the movie whether or not my opinion is correct. Great video. Enjoyed the whole AI thing.
