The Engineer Speaks..... I think!!! (Read 48,145 times)

I think I have been able to translate what the Engineer says.

"I am a god, you dull creature!"

I kind of like the snippet as it implies (from Fassbender's delivery) that Michael is indeed sabotaging the translation/conversation. Living for ever may very well be Weylands intention, but you wouldn't tell a 'superbeing' that... not on a first date anyways.  ;)

I remember that the engineer spoke to the other in a hologram. His voice was hard to hear.

Going to reiterate what I've said before and predict that after everyone's seen the deleted scenes, there shall be lots of apathy, nodding of heads and, "Yeah, can see why Ridley Scott edited all that stuff out, honestly." :)
Words of Wisdom, Xenomorphine my man.

Words of Wisdom.

Seriously, what was Ridley thinking?  All the scenes I've seen so far, including this one, should have been left in.

And now we begin to understand the engineer's reaction !

Well go figure, maybe after the full 4min that scene might start to make sense....

Now that kind of reminded me of some silly WWE skit.

Also, don't tell me the engineer learned English in half a minute.

That's why David is there... to translate.

Snowdog

He didn't speak english but maybe he understood it well enough to be pissed about some lower being, being able to create "life". Just like the predator does minus the mimicing.

Interesting stuff.

Damn.. that was a nice little scene with Weyland...

"Gods never die".

The f**k was Ridley thinking? facepalm... bad call, bad call...

The little soliloquy by Weyland I might not mind, but it's also a tad on the nose - like the over-long version of the Vickers/Weyland scene.  I have to see the full Engineer scene, which is clearly longer than the scraps leaking online.

Indeed.  Lots of bad calls by Ridley on Prometheus. :'(

While I respect your opinion, I think all the deleted scenes released so far add some kind of value to the film.

And you really think the Vickers and Weyland scene is over-long?

Just listened to more of the audio commentary and Ridley Scott mentions that the Engineer was "maybe insulted that a non-human was talking to him" and hence why he decapitates David.
