I'm actually pretty stoked for the sequel. Ridley says its about her travels to the alien engineer planet to ask them why they did whatever, which is actually a much more interesting concept to me than the first film's.
But when you think about it, just as stupid. You have discovered a race of space aliens which created humanity (apparently), just to discover that they also decided at some point to kill every human beeing, let's say because we offended them, I guess if you would ask them they might tell you, because we can or something like that, would not surprise me. They re also technologically a lot more advanced and somewhat malintent for what ever reason. And it seems they forgot about humanity at least for a very long time, as far as our definition of time goes. And now you want to fly to their home planet, knock on their door and ask "whhhhyyyyyy?" - puppie face included, instead of using their ship, flying back home, warning everyone? And THEN you could still fly to their home planet, to ask them and bomb them with the technology you discovered on their ship or what ever.
Though if that is really more or less the plot than It's already pretty clear that she will either not find them, or something else is bound happen. Otherwise, the Alien films could not exist in that universe if she's finding the Engineers/Space Jockes and they decide to continue with their plan of destroying humanity - now I understand why Alec loves them so much. And they also get never mentioned again after Prometheus, no one has any informations about them or knows about them in any of the Alien movies. So they must have either dissapeared or decided to remain silent.
