Could a member of staff do an editorial about it please?

It looks like there are some mutations happening? And then something just desicated everything in sight?

MemberFacehuggerMay-20-2016 7:37 AMThat sounds about right. The "weapon" got loose and in a last ditch effort to save their race, they activated a weapon, much like that of Pompei...wide spread chaos and destruction. I wonder if this is a prologue in the beginning of the film that David narrates and brings us up to speed

MemberDeaconMay-20-2016 8:39 AMInteresting Images... Now giving me Faith for the Movie.
The Source i last heard off in February did say they cant give nothing away as while it seems changes are made to the Draft of 2014 there is a chance half of the elements could be used in the next movie... the draft they claimed to had seen was not a Xeno movie but had some related Monsters but was more of a Rebellion, Creation, Punishment and Burnt by Fire kind of a movie.
some of their comments are now making sense with what we are seeing.... they suggested Mankind was 4th/5th Generation of our kind, and Mankind played a role in the Xeno creation... and Mankind had been to that system before.
These images to me show a Punishment by God/Gods on what looks like a Primordial Race with little Clothing and the Males look Masculine and we see Females and they all have No Hair!
They all look covered in a Ash or Mud, and some of them are looking towards the Skies... as if to blame God, or are they watching something being released from the Sky?
We cant see if this is the Black Goo, but it certainly shows us PUNISHMENT against Humanoids who happen to be Bald? Coinsidence?
Are the Engineers a creation of Man, are they a previous Generation of Man? Is this Paradise or Earth or one of the LV-223/426 Moons.
What for sure is this scene looks like a FLASHBACK event but is it a event caused by DAVID 8 or a Event thousands of years prior?
So indeed we are seeing more than One Plot and we are getting Flash Backs... as i dont think this is the Crew of the Covenant.
To me this is a previous Punishment by God, or maybe as part of a War against another Faction... and thus a SCENE SET THOUSANDS OF YEARS AGO...
So it gives us Great Hope ;) (also the Source may had been correct then).
Another Note.. is the Source said the movie has 3 Plot Elements and to them the way these are is like how Prometheus had 2 One being Flash Back Sacrificial Scene and the other Prometheus Mission of 2093.
They also claimed over a year ago with all the other stuff the movie would have a Larger Cast than Prometheus and the way it was put was a fair bit larger... but then Covenant had a smaller cast..
Seems indeed now the cast is large...

MemberFacehuggerMay-20-2016 9:10 AMLike I stated yesterday, I'm sure we will see many more leaked images in the near future just like we saw today.
Big Dave...I agree with you that we will see a much more of the Back Story...makes sense since David 8 has been on the planet for a long time. He would found and accessed the data base or their library and know exactly how to use the Covenant crew to create more creatures.

MemberDeaconMay-20-2016 9:26 AMTo me this has the Sodom and Gomorrah look to it and the source did say about past events to not be taken quite literal as far as regarding Mankind.
so we dont have God, Angels who Rebel and get punished and then Mankind who also fall and get punished... they hinted that the literal tale of God/Angels is not to be taken in the Divine way...
So Engineers are Mortal versions of Angels, but maybe that punishments and Bible could be talking about previous Mankind Generations and that we are now 4th or 5th.
So maybe these beings are related to Engineers but are a older version of Mankind...

MemberFacehuggerMay-20-2016 10:46 AMPerhaps those who were going to be "wiped" put as you have said created the Deacon, Alien to protect themselves from those over them. In creating these things, the higher power caught wind of their transgressions and as we see above, eliminates the potential threat. They became to evolved and learned of the mortality of their creators.

MemberNeomorphMay-20-2016 11:39 AM@Chris; No worries. Didn't really know what to do with it when I came across it so I just posted it as a topic as I know you and the other staff could do an editorial on it. I'm way too lazy to do a big editorial. Cheers!
