Explain it to me again

Explain it to me again.

They were developing the goo as a weapon? To do what with? Create Xenos? To what end? Kill humanity? Then what happened to them? They were running from something but what? Clearly it wasn't a Xeno, so what was it? Were they running from the goo? Then why did they run INTO a room that had loads of the goo in it?

it's PRESUMED the goo is a weapon.

No one knows, it's just a guess.

It's like explaining the engineer in the first Alien movie before Prometheus.

Any explanation is a guess.

dont do this to yourself. there is no answer. this utter twat just threw it in the script with no reason, no chain of thought leading to the situation. He just threw the idea in there for the viewers to 'wonder' what it was

Needlessly Contrived to the Point of Meaninglessness: The Movie

Give gives lifes to planets. but also destroys it when introduced to someone else thats not engineers

So why were they taking it to earth

But where does the Xeno fit into that? The goo room had Xeno paintings. So it wasn't created by accident from intercourse with Charlie.

Well Humans crucified Engineer and Engineers deemed Humans not worth let living
Most likely from the previous experimentation with humans, since the place was observation point for earth.

Proof that humans crucified engineer is where? The space Jesus thing is just a fan theory no?

An angel with one foot on the shore and one in the sea.

>The space Jesus thing is just a fan theory no?
Idk bro, always made sense for me

>Movies.com: You throw religion and spirituality into the equation for Prometheus, though, and it almost acts as a hand grenade. We had heard it was scripted that the Engineers were targeting our planet for destruction because we had crucified one of their representatives, and that Jesus Christ might have been an alien. Was that ever considered?

>RS: We definitely did, and then we thought it was a little too on the nose. But if you look at it as an “our children are misbehaving down there” scenario, there are moments where it looks like we’ve gone out of control, running around with armor and skirts, which of course would be the Roman Empire. And they were given a long run. A thousand years before their disintegration actually started to happen. And you can say, “Lets’ send down one more of our emissaries to see if he can stop it. Guess what? They crucified him.

i think Xenos and Engineer have different origins

maybe the xenos are also an alien threat for the engineer and tried to weaponized it

The Engineers ran to the Xeno Chamber for safety. So it's easy to understand they were not afraid of eno's because they probably made them. I dunno. But engineers made humans so it's more likely they made Xenos. They might have just discovered it too. so it's not really important either way, since Xenos are not holding Engineers in containment.

Why didn't the engineers just dump some dna into the water instead of having an engineer take poison and an hero himself?

My interpretation

>goo as a weapon
probably

>to do what with
kill humanity

>create xenos
The goo turns whatever lifeform it touches into a specialized human-killer

>to what end
Kill humanity

>kill humanity
yes

>what happened to them
they lost control of their goo somehow

>running from something
goo monster?

>clearly it wasn't a xeno
last time I watched the movie I couldn't tell what it was, I saw nothing to rule out a xeno

>running from goo
probably something goo related

>run into a room full of goo
That goo hadn't gone off yet? Maybe they didn't know? Maybe it was the only room not xeno'd. None of this stuff requires strenuous thought to put together.

>seed earth with life
>humans are a complete fuckin failure
>xenos will cure the mistake

They were literally jews

This movie was such a god damn disappointment. Even the people who like it must see how fucking awful it was when compared to Alien.

I enjoyed it immensely t b h.
I dont care about intricate plot points; the explanation used was more than enough

did even watch the movie just the "honest trailer" for it and 30 seconds of a interview while spam clicking vids on the right side of youtube that are qued to play next one time

they are engineers the goo damages dna. if you understand the general premise of dna then you know damaging dna will cause cell failure or cancer or maybe a mutation.

the engineers manipulated dna so often they probably modified themselves. it destroys the engineer because he is to complex to survive any damage to dna. he falls apart but a human will birth a vaj faced squid baby or turn into a zombie with a brain tumor

the result isnt consistent and xenos where probably never intended

Considering that it's a movie, you're asking the wrong questions.

...

The fuck is a goo and a xeno

>there is no answer
This. It's just bad writing. Throw everything on the wall and hope normies will think they don't understand because it's too deep.

The goo was clearly considered a sacred substance. In the opening scene you have what looks like a ritual sacrifice performed with the goo, and later there is a temple-like chamber where jars of goo have been put on display.

The holograms are there mostly to imply that something was left unfinished. It's not important what exactly happened, you need to focus on the obvious which is that the spooky skull castle is haunted. There are a lot of ghosts in the movie.

JC had a beard and long hair though.

THEORY DEBUNKED!

Reminder that prometheus is a movie that went into production with two completely different artistic visions. Scott wanted to make "ancient aliens: the movie," Fox wanted "ancient Alien: the prequel." Eventually production became so muddled and chaotic they called in DAMON LINDELOF to CLEAN UP the script/project into something serviceable.

So, it started production as a mess, got messier as production went on, then had a tornado called down upon it.

I have no fucking idea I'm just pissing myself laughing at this thread
>goo

>talking about production instead of the movie
You're one of those people who equates box office with quality and reads scripts instead of watching movies, right?

This is a clear example where the idiocy of the production is the only explanation for the total mess the movie was.

The end product is simply not worth consideration.

btw
how came the predators in play?
wasn't that in AvP, that they made the xenomorphs to hunt them?

>they were not afraid of eno's
They should be

>bring democracy to foreign land
>humans are a complete fucking failure
>moderate opposites will cure the mistake

I thought it was to hit the reset button. Humans got too smart and developed for their own good and could also possibly pose a threat to the Engineers if allowed to evolve uncontrolled. That dude saw David and was like "aw shit nigga they're taking up the role as Engineers creating this artificial life form and I can't have that.

G=Get it

Humanity is a weapon used to destroy planets.

The explanation was clear as crystal. It's a shame you have to be spoon fed this movie's plot. But I'm not surprised people on this board don't get it. It's about epic gets, interracial porn, child porn, and pepe the frog spam. No critical thinking or conversation. You would be better off talking about this movie on IMDB or Reddit.
