    Wow thanks for uploading this. Loved Prometheus but would have been cooler if Alien Engineers was released.

    I know people have issues with this film but I love it. I just wish Jon would've been able to do his thing free reign

    It seems like Spaihts contributed the strongest ideas. If they had built a trilogy around exploring the engineer mythos AND THEN tied it into the Alien franchise towards the end it'd have been an extremely rewarding revelation instead of building up everyone's expectations going in.
    The weakest parts; the very poorly written minor characters and disjointed sequence of events really pulls the film down and spoils the great things; Watts/Shaw, David and the grandiose mythology they were building. The engineers were an intriguing/terrifying enough of an idea to carry their own franchise.

    With the recent success of Alien: Romulus, Ridley Scott should bring back Spaiths to finish the story of the Engineers and David (and keep low-tier writers like Damon Lindelof, Michael Green, and Jack Paglen far away from it).

    I also love the film, but for once I feel I agree with the studio; maybe this should have been a different franchise entirely.
    I agree with the interest in the film being a prequel and how it would be good to know about more about the derelict and its inhabitants. But as soon as he joined the dots that they must be linked to us and therefore be our creators, I disengage a bit personally.
    I think this concept is arguably the main flaw with the whole project.
    As I said, I ended up being on board with what they squished together, but it was just that. A hodge-podge. Not a pure Alien prequel we probably could have got.
    Maybe with the way things are rebooted every 20 seconds nowadays, we will get that movie/show one day.

    The elephantine being/Space Jockey could have been truly remarkable without any ties to humans. Making them humanoid is cool but not as cool as the Giger “Space Jockey” that is grown in/from the chair. Where the biological elements end and where the mechanical ones begin, no one could tell. It is that dichotomy that Prometheus ignored. Aliens is probably my favorite in the saga, close to Alien 1 & 4. But I agree with many that only the first Alien nailed the lovecraftian cosmic horror, and thus- the biomechanical nature of the Xeno, and by extension- of the Engineer.
