It feels like he's going to retcon the retcon and have the Engineers not be the Jockeys.

Yeah, it seems he`s going with fallen angels pretending to be god angle.

It's Charles De Lauzirika's birthday today. One of the best things to ever happen to the Alien series.

I really wish they had used this design for the juggernaut if only to make it unambiguously clear that it wasn't the derelict from Alien:

Not to be hating, but those tall white guys took a lot of the magic surrounding the original jockey away,
didnt Ridley see it when he was working on Prometheus?
Didnt he got any feedback from Giger?
We went from 30 years seeing that thing in a undefined state and now we are here and its just two tall white guys in a skeleton suit, i bet they cant even jump neither

Here's a good article to read about that: https://alienseries.wordpress.com/2012/10/20/engineer-architecture/

Steven Messing, the film's visual effects art director, and the other artists tried to shoehorn in Giger's aesthetic wherever they could, usually bartering with Scott and Max to include more of a Giger influence on the Engineers' technology and architecture. The artists took everything they had designed thus far and infused it with more of a biomechanic coating than they had included previously.

"I think he [Scott] just didn't want the Giger style to be necessarily the driving force behind the look," said David Levy, "there had to be more, something smarter in the terms of what's the background of those Engineers – and then we infused them with the Giger style."

In short, blame Ridley.

I haven't been keeping up with current events, but how did you arrive at that idea?

It can't roll. Which is why they went with the old design and made it even rounder.

There's a discussion about that here: http://www.avpgalaxy.net/forum/index.php?topic=55036.0

I find it weird that they included Giger's original concept for the facehugger
