Prometheus film **Spoilers**

[retroborg]

OK, I saw the film and have questions regarding various plot holes.

**Spoilers!!**


• So, that scene where the android activated the holograms of the spooked alien engineers running away from something, in the corridor into that room with the biological weapon canisters, what were they actually running away from, the Xenomorph Aliens? One could only assume that as previously they had seen those engraved hieroglyphs on the walls of what resembled a grotesque version of the Xenomorph Alien Queen and later on the 2 coward geologists found many corpses of the alien engineers with their chests burst open from the inside.
But if that is the case, then what happened to the xenomorph aliens that were chasing them and killed them?

• Where did that snake thing come from that killed the 2 geologists, as it wasn’t in that room when they 1st arrived and how did it survive thousands of years there without food, waiting for the humans to arrive?

• Why did they pat an unknown and probably hostile alien snake living inside a sinister cave, instead of running away from it like hell, especially when they had previously expressed their fear of staying there any more than the should, since it was above their field as geologists?

• In Alien 1, when Ripley’s crew arrived at the place and later on in Aliens 2 the terraforming colonists, how come no one noticed the human crash-landed escape pods and debris and that huge squid inside the pod that had devoured the alien engineer and what happened to it?

• In Alien 1 film, the huge room filled with xenomorph eggs was it in a different unexplored compartment of the horse-shoe space-ship and was that a another space jockey with its chest burst open? Because in Prometheus, after the ship crashed, the space jockey left the ship and came after the woman protagonist to kill her, only to get crushed to death by her squid child.

Guess I won't go out and see that movie now.

So basically this is what we learned from Prometheus!




So that Alien bursting out of the engineer at the end is the pioneer of the Alien species?!

If that is the case, then the Alien Vs Predator films make absolutely no sense as they're supposed to take place decades before these events. And who planted those eggs in that other ship in LV-426, if the Aliens species had not been created yet?!

This whole story is a mess!

[vhelp]

i for one was also curious and wish they sooner or later do an eye-operner story with regards to that large dead alien in that ship in alien 1.

i thought alien vs preditor was great...the first one, not the one in precual or however you spell it.

So, basically what we learned from Prometheus so far, is that running around in alien planets and caves, there is a pretty high chance that you'll get mouth raped by some alien xenomorph or worm on steroids!

Also the script writer ran out of ideas at some point and decided to copy the black oil from the X-Files!
