Loool. Thats what I wanted, something cool like that! Ridley couldve shown all the knowledge being poured into his head and used that as an opportunity to be super creative. He couldve shown the guy the entire history of the engineer race. Or even what came before the big bang or how space and time are the exact same thing. Maybe how there are forms of life that exist in more than 3 spacial dimensions and how they view us. The possibilities are endless. But fucking Ridley didnt do any of that shit. Instead he just had the dude wake up and kill everyone.

Two more parts to this story would be wonderful! In the original Alien you see an engineer dead in the control seat with his ribs busted open. I was waiting for that part in Prometheus the whole movie and it never happened. Instead, the final engineer gets his ribs busted open on that medical ship, lying down. I wonder if that dead engineer in the control seat of Alien was supposed to be the same engineer that we see die, at the end of Prometheus.
