I really wish that Ridley Scott wasn't taking so much influence from our own history and architecture. I mean, I understand that he's coming from the 'we're them and they're us' angle with the Engineers but damn, I really wanted me some Gigeresque planet of unholy nightmares.
I guess that's the problem with nigh on 40 years of dreams and expectations, in regards to that mysterious space jockey from 'Alien'.
I hear you mate, but if these engineers are just some sort of aftermath culture there might be a whole Gigerian city buried underneath this Vatican simulation.
At least we can dream together!

While that won't likely happen there *is* at least this nod to Gigeresque aesthetics:
Ever since this shot was first released I've been trying to figure out where this tunnel is located.
It's probably not part of the crashed Juggernaut since it looks pristine and the ribbed architecture is much more reminiscent of the original Derelict from Alien.
A subterranean chamber under the Citadel perhaps?
Then the pictures of the so-called Scorpionaut leaked and I think this very well might be part of that vehicle/structure.
I have a strong suspicion that the silhouetted figure might be David just before or after he emerges onto the platform to release the black goo bombs.
What do y'all think?
