in my opinion, any movie that needs a 20min explanation video hasn't been made well. it's a good concept and it was visually stunning but it's like they had too many ideas and tried to cram them in at the same time.

As far as the engineers go, it must of been important to them to create life, because in the deleted scenes, that "lone" engineer in the beginning wasn't actually alone, he was there with elders and robed engineers... he was DEF committing a religious ritual suicide in an effort to create life on that planet (Earth).. which is better than my ORIGINAL thought, that he was poisoned while the other left. Those blu-ray extras explain a LOT

cont... So Vickers could be a CLONE. Either way it's most likely that David AND Vickers were prototypes. David was DEF an android, but Vickers could be an android or a clone. That's the REALLY confusing part. She could be a clone of Weyland's dead wife or daughter... because in the beginning Weyland's projection makes a point out of the fact that David is a SON. In reference to Vickers showing emotions, even if she DID she could have been programmed to (just like David, who can cry)

Vicker was DEFINITELY an android (or a clone). In the "archives" of Weyland himself (in the Blu-ray menus) Weyland says that ALL of the people on the ship were asleep except for David and Vickers... HOWEVER, in a DELETED scene, Idris Elba's character (The Pilot) talks about how he worked for govt outfits "off-planet" where they were making clones. Weylands' corporation became super rich by colonizing mars (among other things)... CLONING was illegal on EARTH so they were doing it off of Earth.

Its not the first facehugger, nor the first alien. If u look closley the Alien Queen in painted on the walls of the room thing.

It was a good movie. Unanswered questions? WHY they made humans? why they wanted to kill us? this is not really important, they could just populate planets to test bio-weapons. It's beyond obvious we're no threat to them, so the reason has to be petty; plus their plan was to destroy us a couple thousands of years back... so, again, absolutely no threat to them.

Those grey dudes? I could think of better things to do when bored than slave away in a WMD facility on a barren planet. Flawed film, but I think there was a hint of something else going on there.

The Engineers seem like a bunch of bored sobs. Playing god basically
