The Alien franchise is a beloved horror and sci-fi staple, so naturally Hollywood tries to breathe new life into it every few years. In 2012, Ridley Scott made his return to the universe of Alien with Prometheus-- a not-quite prequel that follows a space crew as they deal with some scary alien threats called Engineers.
Prometheus does raise some questions though. Like why haven’t the crew been briefed on their mission until AFTER they’ve been in cryo-sleep for several years? Why does everybody take off their helmets in an alien cave? How did they get lost in the cave with amazing mapping technology? Why did they suddenly want to touch that horrifying alien snake thing? Why did David spike Charlie’s drink? What was the point of Weyland plot twist? Why was that Engineer chasing Elizabeth at the end?
To answer all these questions and more, step inside the Pitch Meeting that led to Prometheus! It’ll be super easy, barely an inconvenience.

For me, part of the horror of the original Alien was that there were so many questions: what were they? Where did they come from? But the scary part was that the universe is so vast, so old, so much more immense than humanity can ever be, that it doesn't care about our questions. We don't deserve answers because, ultimately, in the face of the black, cold, ageless cosmos, we are insignificant. And there are beings out there utterly beyond our comprehension, to which we are just food. The new batch of movies took that totally away, and made it all about *us.* Like, humans have this special place in the scheme of the universe. I really feel that completely diminished the Aliens' power.

But he really doesn't care about any of the answers that the screenwriter guy provides. Hence he uses phrases like "that works", "fair enough", "let me get off that thing" (SG's back). He'll approve anything as long as he sees commercial value. This pitch meeting is basically an amusement for him.
