Over the course of reading just about every article, interview and book about Prometheus I've come across many quotes from people involved that give insights into some of the mysteries of Prometheus and what the sequel might contain. I thought it'd be a good idea to have a thread where we can archive these quotes and post about what these quotes might shed light on. Wish I would have thought of this a while ago as I'm going to have to re-read a lot of stuff. From the Art of the Film book. Aurthur Max regarding the murals in the ampule chamber... [i]"The brief from Ridley was a cathedral, with a ceiling of murals, iconographic illustrations like in the Sistine Chapel, with the [b]Creation, Armageddon and Judgment cycle[/b]"[/i] So, I suppose the mural with what looks to be an engineer with his hand on a xeno or deacon like creature's head would equate to creation and it seems the one that Holloway shines his flashlight on with the xeno-like creature in a crucified pose would be judgment. Any ideas on the armageddon mural? I can only recall those two. Some of it seems obvious ie engineers created xenoesque creatures then judged them but does anyone have any ideas as to how the cycle played out? Also from the Art of the Film book. Aurthur Max again. This time regarding the giant head in the ampule chamber... [i]"...then Ridley looked at it and said, 'Can we have a statue, a sculpture or something iconic in the middle that celebrates the the engineers?' [b]The idea being that the engineers, playing the role of God in the universe, have visited earth many times over millennia and given mankind upgrades both physical and intellectual.[/b]"[/i] Now, a lot of this is well known information but lets break that down. First, we have the engineers playing the role of God. I wonder if that means they [i]are[/i] the Gods or are they just [i]playing[/i] God? Next we read that they have visited earth many times over millennia and they have given mankind upgrades. This is something that is well known with fans but the question I have which Mala'kak had a very interesting theory about in [url=http://www.prometheus-movie.com/community/forums/topic/9628]THIS THREAD[/url] is-Did the Engineers perhaps seed earth with other humanoid life forms and decide to destroy them? Also, what upgrades did they give us exactly? Just some food for thought. Anyone else read or remember some revealing quotes from the crew of the film? If so, please post them here.

Yep, as I thought! It's a Narcisistic thing.
