From pg. 18 scan.

I need to know much more about this shot and potential scene.

That is wonderfully creepy! True nightmare material. Imagine waking up with that thing looming over your bed...

Don't get why they went with the mutated zombie caveman look instead.

So there you go, its officially confirmed the trilobite is an early facehugger and the deacon is a precursor to the alien

No? That's completely contradictory to everything Ridley Scott has said in interviews.

There are pages on Deacon saying how its a creature that will eventually end up evolving into Giger alien of the first film. Then on different pages it explains that the alien is a creature/result of mixing dna of a human, triobyte and engineer

I'll admit, I'm no expert on long-limbed greedy stoned mutant geologist bastards.

But that is totally the same long-limbed greedy stoned mutant geologist bastard.

Wait so if Deacon is a random mix of stuff that will eventually turn into Gigers Alien then... anything that stuff touches will eventually turn into Gigers Alien?

The art book explains that the Deacon is a mix of human, trilobite and engineer, because it's from the trilobite, which is shaw's baby, impregnating an engineer. And Scott has said in multiple interviews that the Derelict from Alien is already crashed on LV-426 by the time of Prometheus and has been for a few thousand years. Addiitionally, the murals and wall relief in the ampule chamber depict facehuggers and xenomorphs. Ergo: the facehuggers and xenomorphs already existed at least 2000 years ago and the Trilobite/Deacon are not their precursors.

Some of the stuff that never made it in to the final film looks awsome i hope we get some of it put back in for the DC cut of Prometheus.



I like how the back of his head is turning pointy very Alien ish indeed.

I think the body on the alternate Fifield monster looks nice and menacing but the face/head looks like a horribly conventional grey alien. The more I see of the alternate version the less I like it. At least by showing him earlier in his mutation it leaves more to the imagination and doesn't seem to represent something that mixes up the alien metaphor even more (knuckle walking like a gorilla? What the hell?). That face is not as threatening. I do think the concept sculpts for this version were a bit better and more original while feeling more of a tie to the alien.

Ultimately I think Ridley's instinct to go in-camera is always better. It's always more believable.

i think in final lighting and effects, alien fifield would look much better than zombie one. still could do alot in camera too. that shot from trailer looked amazing, and long arm is more scary than zombie (so not original)

Looks to me like it could be an actual CGfield they cooked up for an alternate version of the scene. It does say that Weta developed a digital version that walked around on its knuckles and shiz (whilst demanding money and marijuana, I imagine), until Ridley opted to use mostly in-camera stuff.

looks like a shop to me. I can tell from the pixels, and because I've seen quite a few greedy stoned mutant geologists in my time. maybe test footage. either way, doesn't look totally finished.

not the head design I would have used, but apparently Ridley never got the resume I faxed him?.
Are you sure?



And the rise in the numbers of present Engineers is getting ridiculous:


What's wrong on the number of engineers at the beginning? Now it makes more sense that there was more than one of them when such big event as starting a life on earth was planning.
