B-b-but Starbeast is...



Y U MAKE ME CONFUSE THEM? :-[

You know you secretly wanted to see this...

BLERGH.

As unimpressive as it is, the new, proper Starbeast is better than that. 8)

MrSpaceJockey

Yep. This time it's actually in the shape of a star!

While I'll call them different names for the sake of... Differentiation... Ing... I cannot dispute this point.

'Point'.

Heh...

I honestly find the name 'Trilobite' for the tentacled thing to be downright hilarious. Seriously?  Trilobite? Did they grab a paleontology book and just... pick up the first name that sounded cool to them?

Does anyone remember if the music for the 'An Old Friend' track featured in the film? Might have been a reference to this, if so - which means that it could have been filmed.


Weyland's Holo-Entrance.

And the track was actually called "Friend from the Past," fitting the scene.

Just in case there is any doubt as to whether the Giger art of the 'alien hands' clasped around an 'alien egg' is Prometheus canon, check the following ampule room mural comparison shot:



A point of note worth mentioning here is that the 'alien hands' clasped around the egg have the distinctive webbed six fingers of the familiar xeno. But the proto-goblin-alien thing at the end of Prometheus appears to only have 5 fingers?

Oh man! I'm having such a geeky nerd moment right now! Feeling like a little kid on x-mas day!  ;D

I would have never seen the hands holding the egg if it weren't for that post. Shame they covered it up and passed it so quickly.

I think that the original idea for Fifield's transformation was way more interesting, dramatic and grotesque.

It's a missed effect for sure, he looked like he was turning into a Drone-ish thing, rather than some sort of primal, zombie.

Knowing Amazon I wouldn't be suprised if it arrived tomorrow, I only ordered a few days ago, seeing that other post about August I decided to check anyway, but reading yours has arrived is great news  :)

Virgil

I believe I ordered mine roughly one month ago so that could explain the difference in delivery dates. I can't see any reason why you won't have it by the end of the week :) It's a great read. What struck me most was the image of the deacon heading towards the (now) derelict. You're left with the impression it has the intelligence to fly the ship.
