awesome.  this linguist is my new best friend.  though i wish they hadn't revealed this so soon.  the mystery made for great speculation.

Yep and once more fans came up with more interresting ideas...

Who are we talking about, the idiots who wrote the various terrible fake scripts?  I think not.  I'll stick with the actual movie.

I think the Engineer's actions make perfect sense, given what David said. If the Engineers are indeed angry at what has become of their creation, what with the destruction of Space Jesus and all that, then he likely thought "You have the f**king audacity to ask me for such a favour? I'll kill you, and him, in the most painful way I can."

I like this idea

My assumption was that he was pissed at Shaw being hit by one of the mercenaries, maybe he saw a snapshot of what the creations had become and didn't like it

Yeah, that could have also played a part. I seem to remember the Engineer smiling too, when he first got out of the cryo-tube prior to David talking to him. Maybe he had no intention of hurting them in the first place.

No, I remember the smile came AFTER David spoke. But he didn't become violent until then.

Perhaps if David didn't ask for something, and said they had come to atone for their sins, the Engineer would have reacted differently.

he also feels davids face before he turns violent... what if he could sense that he wasnt human and the fact that their creations, smaller versions of them (ie us) had in turn gone on to create David..... maybe thats what pissed him off.... as Weyland said, We are the gods now..............

Probably something very sarcastic that David developed among the years alone in space.
I bet when subtitled we would have laughed and i think the engineer did too.

As I've said elsewhere, animatronics really isn't all that radically advanced a science - Hollywood was doing it longer ago than many members of this forum were even alive. If that's enough to launch them into a psychotic rage, they need to get their scientific priorities in order.

Besides which, for all the thing knew, David 8 might have been a live human being wearing a medical or cosmetic prosthetic.

The Engineer touched David pretty delicately before ripping his head off. Maybe he just somehow could tell David wasn't human.

Engineer: "Hmm, mankind is now using much more advanced tools than I saw them using when last I was there."

"This man is here because he does not want to die. He believes you can give him more life."

I think most of us had already assumed that David said something like this and pissed off the engineer. Now if only we could figure out what the hell the black goo does.

I swear I can not, NOT think about LOST when it comes to the Black Goo. What'd they have? A living island with a bright light inside that could turn people into black smoke. HNNNNNNNNG

Maybe he said something along the lines of

"Because of us, you will die in the very fantasy of brutal Japanese rape porn"

I can't blame the Engineer for overreacting about that one.
