QuoteInstead, it turns into the Hulk - which makes any inference of moral superiority a mockery.
As morality is subjective this is entirely debatable.
But "They are us"?
That doesn't mean they have the same moral values as us. And they didn't say ''they are us''. they said their dna precedes ours

The DNA of the magic goo precedes ours, not the DNA of the Engineers, but whatever.

The Engineer at the beginning of the film wears a loin cloth, which means that he has junk that he wants to cover for modesty. You don't get any less alien than that; he's on an alien world about to sacrifice himself and he still wears a nappy to protect his privacy.

And furthermore, if he is a he and he is cultured then there are cultured shes which means that their society is based around pretty similar core values to our own. Perceived 'morality' is merely a function of making that setup work.

So my equation is thus: Alien Loin Cloth = Human-like Morality.

Think about it.

You aren't seriously suggesting that they wrapped a towel around the actor's waist in order to hide his rude bits from the camera? Of course you aren't, that would be stupid. ;)

Chris, you're missing the point entirely.

It was Rick Grimes playing the engineer. His penis is so huge that it would've meant zooming out to get the whole thing in, or a whole shit ton of prosthetics to reign the puppy in.

As is, a loincloth with a tie-back is the cheapest option. That or sling it over the shoulder, but Rick only does that on weekends, and they shot that scene on a Monday.

If you're talking about the Sacrifice Engineer, that was Daniel Twiss at the beginning....if not just ignore me!!   8)
