That may be so, but we don't know for certain yet what the Engineers' intentions are, or if they're a monolithic bloc with regards to their attitudes towards their apparent offshoots, and as the Engineers are apparently also humans (of a sort, anyway) according to Prometheus, I'd rather cheer for them than a bunch of reptilo-arthropoid pseudo-primitives whose entire society revolves around hunting other species, including humans.

If I were a Psychology major, I'm sure I could pen a fascinating term-paper on the neuroses behind writing for the latter. I mean, you have to be a pretty odd duck to fantasize about identifying with and finding favour from a stratum of ostensibly superior beings that normally consider your kind game animals...
