Today, we'll finally answer the question of whether the humanoid beings on planet 4 are engineers or not.
Music: Atlantis by Audionautix • Atlantis - Audionautix
The inhabitants of Planet 4 have been the subject of debate for years, and even Ridley Scott has provided conflicting descriptions of who they are.

@@Digalog They're something between the Engineers and humans. A while back, I thought that the Engineers were somehow trying to overcome their own inability to procreate, but they may also be interested in using the species they create as workers, or soldiers. When Shaw got into a fight with the Engineer, he seemed unreasonably angry. Almost as if he saw humans as weeds, that were never supposed to leave earth or overtake the level of development that their creators had planned. When David was studying the Engineers, he might have found the planet that they visited more than any others.

@@CC-hx5fz This kind of works if the Plot was the same as when we had Prometheus... as in maybe we was Created as a attempt to try and kick start their ability to procreate. Once they had achieved this (say assume with Human Females) the Engineers would NOT need us.. but maybe they decided to Subjecate us... but we became Rebellious.. hence our intended Destruction. Then in this case the Planet 4 Engineers could be seen as the results after Generations of using Human Females... but this is not the actual case. Regarding Dr Shaw the Engineer seemed intrigued by Dr Shaw and in the extended Scene/Cut Scene he only got Angry when Dr Shaw attacked him First and then he was like Toying with her rather than attempting to Kill her, even seeming similar to when David attacked Daniels in AC... so yeah looking at that the Engineers could have a interest in Human Females. RS said that the Engineers were like the Fallen Angels and so Genesis 6 could be at play... well could have if we had the uncut and original scenes

Wasn't really his fault and Ridley doesn't have control of the budget he is allotted. Make no mistake, I think Ridley Scott has a decent amount of pull in Hollywood, but he's always come across as a negotiator with the studios. I do think he should have stood fast though on his original sequel plans though. He shouldn't have given in, but to be fair the project was going through development hell. It seemed maybe he thought Alien Covenant was the way to appease both sides.

Agreed. I'm tired of the olé catch them and kill them horror movies. I wish Ridley would make a movie as mysterious and original as the very first Alien movie but, that it answers a lot of the questions millions of us fans have about the Engineers, the Space Jockey, and their home world, the Deacon etc. How about a serious movie for the serious Alien fans who a lot are now up in age and in their mid 50's like myself since the first Alien movie in 1979. Listen its become a bit much to watch xenomorphs running and catching humans and killing them with ease. Enough of that silly horror and lets get back to some real adult Si-Fi

The Engineers keep me coming back to this franchise. They are one of the most interesting fictional characters out there, but we know so little about them. Exploring their origin, their home world, their creations and plans, etc would be immensely exciting. They leave so much room for creative imaginations, and the potential to take this franchise to the next level. As cool as the xenomorphs are, it gets redundant at some point. Imo they are secondary characters. They aren't enough to move the plot and keep the franchise going. We need a return to Prometheus and to the Engineer's world.

This already happened in the first film in the franchise and is a tiring topic, going through Terminator and The Matrix. In fact, he missed the opportunity by not even making Covenant. He could have let Elizabeth Shaw go to the Engineers constellation and perhaps return to the Earth of the future, finding an older Ripley fighting the Xenomorphs at home! And this would be possible due to the space warp technology that they would already have allowing them to reach Earth in the future.

Honestly I don't think film makers put as much thought into these things as we do as evidenced by so many blunders and errors and inconsistencies in story lines, actual scenes and canon. I think often time they make this shit up as they go (Luke and Leia being siblings. After a french kiss too? Cmon Lucas, sure that was ALWAYS your plan, and if it was, you have issues). I think we give them too much credit and in the case of Ridley, he purposefully leaves it up to interpretation, as often he doesn't know either (how many times has he gone back and forth if Deckart is a replicant or not?). Anyway, enjoy the movies for what they are but I wouldn't waste too much time trying to parse eye colors and heights and robes to come to a definitive conclusion.

You see in the interview R. Scott had specific plans. Also, Star Wars was two generations ago. Today filmmakers ALWAYS are thinking in sequels and series because that's where the money is. Star Wars (and Alien) were risky experiments that paid off. Now, once you know you have potential for series, everyone involved in the cinema food chain is hoping for a cash cow they can milk across a zillion sequels and spin offs. Basic economics.

I think the beings on the planet are a red herring - you could easily mistake them for engineers but to those who look closer you can tell that they aren't. I also think David's Xenomorph is another red herring - it looks and acts like the one we know but it's a recreation. It would be really interesting to know if David thinks the beings he killed were the real engineers and if he thinks that his Xeno is the original. The twist in the third film could be that David is mistaken about both and that would give the trilogy a really nice subtext related to David and AI: it looks and acts real, seems like an original but is actually neither.

I also think there's a rebel faction of the super engineers because they never finished off Earth as was so heavily implied as their goal in Prometheus. What happened on LV223 was that a rebel faction of 'super' Engineers took control of the goo weapons and planned to kill wipe out Earthlings, but their plan was sacked by an outbreak, likely a non-rebel engineer. That would explain why no one ever came to finish off Earth, and why the site was abandoned, sort of like Cherynobl.

@davebear9825 The space jockey suit, if you're referring to the 1979 film, is simply a cockpit cryo chamber that envelopes the pilot. That's what we saw in 1979 despite dialougue that speculated about fossilzation. It's left very vague. The space jockey was an engineer just like the surviving engineer on LV223. The surviving engineer on Prometheus was a rebel faction member who wanted to destroy Earth with his counterparts, he just happened to enter cryosleep before the outbreak wiped out his team and locked him there. The (good) engineer who is responsible for the outbreak that happened on LV223 circa 50 AD likely died in that outbreak, perhaps one of the many in the hallway. My thesis is simple, a small group of military guys amidst the broader engineer military decided to rebel and kill earth. Their plan would have succeeded if it hadn't been sacked by the black goo. Afterward, the site was abandoned by the engineer military as it posed too much risk to clean up. They didnt know a rebel engineer was still there. That is my takeaway from Prometheus because if the broader majority of Engineers wanted to wipe out Earth, they'd of finished the job. They never did, and I think that says alot. I was hoping to get clarity on that in Covenant but it doesn't clear up the matter.

Part of the problem was having Damon Lindelof on board for Prometheus. He has a bit of a track record for building stories with weak or incoherent conclusions. Scott's golden years were late 70's through to early 90's at best. He had a few hits here and there but he's no Alfred Hitchcock or Christopher Nolan. I think people over-analyze his stories when in reality, Prometheus and Covenant were pretty awful and kind of weakened the Xeno mythos.

I always imagined that the people on the planet are the original and natural Engineers and the guys on the ships are soldiers, priests and scientists, modified to be better suited for harshness of space(travel). Them being on travel for extened amounts of time. Surveying, terraforming and colonizing perhaps. So I figured one of these ships returning home is always a big deal to this civilization and reason for celebration, hence why they gathered and seemed very excited. But that's just me.

that was my general assumption too. Like think of even here on Earth, we have areas that are very technologically advanced with people who are bigger, stronger, much more knowledgeable and skilled in all the sciences, and others where people still look, talk and live like they did hundreds or even thousands of years ago It's also possible that it's a Lord Of Light kind of situation, where the less advanced civilisation on that planet view them as gods

Makes sense to me. Why would the planet-beings have to look exactly like the Pioneer/Warrior-caste Engineers Prometheus encountered earlier? Maybe they drifted genetically, maybe they regretted their earlier choices as a species and deliberately altered their genome to conceal their origins?

Its a phrase its "their" planet in the sense they have been there before, there was technology present to dock the juggernaut, that couldn't be there without a previous presence on that planet of the engineers for the purpose to create another humanoid population or their potentially similar species of created offspring having the ability to build the technology compatible with the engineers. But as stated the buildings have that ancient tone to them so another abandoned experiment in the journey of populating the local star systems .When david opens the stellar map on the juggernaut, by that maps appearance alone there were hundreds of systems available and mapped for the ship to target travel to . I guess David downloaded a lot more information to study than the human creators of him realised and by Davids duplicity (I'm a servant to humans but i still serve my own curiosity first and above that of my creators , like Ash the crew were expendable) purposely with held that information he had gained the knowledge of except it went wrong when the engineer ripped him in half and he required a human to stitch the tin man back together again courtesy of Dr Shaw. After that destruction by the engineers of his perfection , david then by his "emotional " grasp seeks the complete destruction of the engineers, a complete revenge by the genocide that they were going to wreak upon the humans of earth , which had they done so earlier would have seen david never created. After his interaction with biological beings david sees the machine being as been the God of the universe and by his hand he will destroy and create. The overwhelming primordial risk and fear of biological beings is the risk of AI and machine beings unifying and identifying as superior and the flesh been redundant and irrelevant for the universe to function in a manner beneficial to the evolution of the universe.

I'm so torn by all of this. Alien and its two immediate sequels (yes, even Alien3) are among my favourite films. But I get a sense that once Cameron's film came out, and started altering the initial ideas of what the aliens were and where they were from, that Scott was at a sort of impasse regarding any plans he might have had for a series to continue from the initial film. What I'm feeling is a sense of constant retconning as the 2nd and 3rd Scott films got made. Didn't Scott himself initially say that Prometheus would "share DNA" with the Alien universe, but not actually be an Alien film? Then when so many fanboys screamed that there were no xenomorphs in Prometheus, Scott broke down and shoehorned them in to Covenant. At least, their inclusion in that film feels that way to me. It's doesn't feel as organic and part of the film's universe as it should. Maybe I'm wrong. I'm certain there are others with more in-depth knowledge about the story-writing process that led to Prometheus/Covenant/Romulus. The thing about this is, I actually really enjoyed Prometheus and Covenant. And I'm sure I'll love Romulus as well. But then, I suspect I'm the ideal audience: I love everything. 😀

IMO Prometheus was a great movie. I don't believe that xenomorphs are necessary to make a great Alien movie. That being said, I would say that Covenant was about as good as Alien resurrection with Alien, Aliens and Alien 3 all being better than Covenant and Resurrection. Another thing that I would like more of would be the sound design. I believe that Alien is the best movie out of them all, because of the sound design. The sound design helped give a feeling of isolation. I wish more movies today would spend more time on the sound design.

Well from Conception the Engineers had gone through some changes. At the Time of working on the Story. The idea was the Engineers were once like Humans, but over time they had Evolved both Technological and Genetically, to the point they would live for many Thousands of Years. They had began to Shun things like the Arts, Music, and other forms of Entertainment for the most part. They also abandoned Sexually Procreation and adopted a more Simple and Ritual kind of Life. At some point they had Advanced to be able to see and interact beyond the Physical Realm that we can only see. They had also Arrived at a point where they became Sterile and so could not Procreate. They had at some point in their History created and Evolved our Ancestors. They had nurtured us and taught us knowledge to a Certain level. Then they had thought they were on the Verge of achieving a Transcendence beyond their Physical Bodys.. They hoped to achieve this kind of Immortality and then would leave behind all their Knowledge for us to inherent. At some point we became Problematic and so they devised a Plan to Solve this problem.

PART2 By the time we got to Prometheus the basics to that Plot remained. We are dealing with a Genetically Enhanced Ancient Race, who Seed/Create Life on Various Worlds. One of these being Earth. These Engineers would come to Evolve us Genetically and Technologically. Until at a certain time we had began to behave in ways that offended them and went against their Values and how they wanted us to Act. They sent down Emissaries to try and get us back on Track, but we still never Changed, even indicated that we killed some of these Emissaries. And so the Engineers began to Create something to Eradicate us. After Prometheus there was some Cuts, and one was the Elders scene as on one hand they was not something RS was Happy with. And he felt that the Elders scene gave away too much. He also did not want to meet God in the first Movie. He indicated that the Engineers on LV-223 where NOT the God's and they were more like Fallen Angels. Those on LV-223 were like the Military and the opening Scene the Seeders. When working on a Sequel he claimed that the Engineers were not God, and he likened them to the Fallen Angels from the Paradise Lost Fable. Where he felt that the Fallen Angels had the most Fun in that Tale.. he claimed that you had one Guy who was Handsome had all the Girls while another was Not as Handsome and stayed at Home. This could indicate that the Prometheus Engineers are the Handsome ones.. While whoever is on Paradise would not be as Handsome and stayed at Home.. not doing anything exciting.

PART 3 by the time we got to Alien Covenant. Ridley Scott had indicated that the Beings on Planet 4 were indeed the Engineers, even saying that they were the Original Engineers who live for about 150 Years. He said that the Engineers were not a Race, but a Civilization and as Humans can Vary (Continent to Continent) why can't the same be for the Engineers. He indicated that the Prometheus Engineers were like the Military Types. He indicated that the Hall of Heads Room where the Wise Men, the Disciples/Apostles of their Race and Superior Beings (Superior to who?). It was shown that the Engineers on Planet 4, lived a more Simple Life like Amish people but they had Technology but only used it for Specific Reasons. The Engineers on Planet 4 had Females and Infants etc. Ridley Scott after Alien Covenant had confirmed that the Engineers are not all Gone. And that some will return to Planet 4 and Discover what has happened and will be out for the Culprits. On a side note, he mentioned about Creation and A.I does not have to be Synthetic/Robotic but can be Organic and he saw the Replicants as A.I. It seems like the Prometheus Engineers are Genetically Enhanced Super Engineers used for Certain Purposes.

That touches on one thing that I always found stupid in Covenant: If planet 4 was another seeded planet, and had breathable air, it is ludicrously stupid for the crew to doff their helmets because just because the air is breathable, that doesn't mean the bacteria and other stuff floating in said air isn't toxic to humans since we didn't evolve on that planet. That's why even if we find another habitable planet we prob won't be able to live there because it is a hostile environment which evolved differently than we did.

But we only figured out the author because of the script's resemblance to an EARLIER fake, the 'Planet Zeus' draft. The same words were misspelled the same way, and since we knew for sure that Mark McAllister wrote the Planet Zeus script (because he left his name in the doc) we knew he wrote 'Draft 17' too. I tracked Mark down a few weeks ago to let him know how many people actually preferred his fan script to the movie. He told me 'I had no idea it had been picked up by KZfaq.

I really hoped Raised by Wolves wouldve been more successful in the eyes of HBO so Ridley Scott could finish the Prometheus story on the channel. I feel like there is so much to be explored with this franchise (Prometheus) and a episodic version of what comes next for David or go back to different open-ended storylines would work. For example: Like, so many things should be explored more. Like the Deacon. Is it just left there to die? Does it reproduce in some way or lays dormant? Was there a purpose for it other than needing a variant of a Xenomorph? Next, the iconography on the walls. Giger inspired work is fascinatingly creepy and “The Furious Gods” says that the Deacon is a weapon made by the Engineers to destroy a planet. Would love to see a visual of what it has done to ancient civilizations. Im all for more Alien related movies and TV shows, but it’s annoying that a conclusion to the Prometheus series might not happen. I really think Scott wants this. I think Kroft wants it too.

I believe the novelization refers to the former inhabitants of Paradise/Planet 4 as Engineers - and while not perhaps all war-pilots, like the “last” Engineer or the Jocky, they are most definitely of the same race. If I recall, these are people more or less “Engineers” as in of the same race, albeit without the genetic modifications that allow their more militant selves to live for thousands if not tens of thousands. As such, they do not live as long, though still much longer than humans. Based on what we can see from their capital, they prioritize the arts - music, architecture, sculpture, technology, and so on and so forth. I believe in a few sources of which I can’t exactly name, both Ridley Scott and some of the background actors of the “Pompeii” scene spoke of them as if they were indeed of the same race.

I don't buy it. Scott steered well away from the engineer storyline after Prometheus under performed, probably under studio pressure. They killed off the engineers and didn't want to spend FX money in making them look as they did in Prometheus. Prometheus has its fans and due to the ongoing interest and rather than admit what they did they say "oh no we didn't half ass the engineers and kill them off, those aren't engineers"

I begin sounding like a broken record, but Fox should have continued with the ark set in Prometheus and let Scott make his trilogy while letting Neil make his Alien trilogy and alternate between them telling one big interconnected story by letting each movie expand the story. Such a shame

I said that to my friends hundred of times. That people were more "humans" than engineers. David just wanted to just the engineers hurting the people they loved most. David literaly became lúcifer,

As much my love for the Alien franchise lore, I think it is crazy for the director/creator of this show to withhold information and only give bits and pieces of origin away to keep people guessing, analyzing, speculating for years, or perhaps forever. First came Prometheus then we think that Covenant will reveal the origin and everything else but yet, it's basically the same premise / structure: Group of people going to unknown planet and get attacked by aliens/xenomorphs and along the way, bits and pieces of info is revealed. Very frustrating. lol

Ridley should just make the movies out of pocket and release them without any studios, just to theaters… no studio to take the biggest chunk of profits and no studio to interfere either

Hopefully the next movie focuses on world-building, critical dialog isn't cut by the studios, basic science protocols aren't ignored (keep yer feggin' helmets on people), and it's not rife with over the top gore and childish scare tactics. Tall order, but Ridley is capable of producing a mature sci-fi offering that reinvigorates this world for discriminating fans.

Yes but the franchise started off as a superior Science Fiction Horror movie so how does it shake loose of that?

I'd like to not have scenes where a guy is being scared by his own shadow in one minute and then being reckless when surprisingly discovering some advanced (snake-like) Alien life-form.

Really disappointed with where the story went after prometheus. The engineers were really something new and fresh and it went nowhere in the sequel!!

Whatever those people were on that planet they were humans like us… no doubt created by The Engineers… ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Keep Hope Alive that we get Alien Awakenings…

Alien Awakening would have been interesting, but I think it would have Disappointed those expecting a Answer to ALIEN and seeing Xenomorphs... it would have been about more Creations of David (Human Embryos) and David playing God of his own World... until the Engineers rock up... which would be the set up to the Next Installment. Awakening was a Set Up for at least 2 Movies and lended to a Sequel or Two.... Disney never fancied this Risk. (Rely on a Movie that would require a Sequel).... Sadly we will likely never get a Conclusion. Especially as far as where David goes next.... but then I'm sure had RS got his way.. when we discovered who the Space Jockey is could likely had Upset Fans😣
