Title: Another New Prometheus Image
Post by: Corporal Hicks on Dec 22, 2011, 12:18:03 AM

We’ve got another new image from Prometheus, this time coming from movie magazine Total Film:

 Alien Isolation (Novel) Review - AvP Galaxy Podcast #96

Trying to get a high quality version of this from Fox. Thanks to Wmmvrrvrrmm for the image.

I think we've pretty much conceded the Jockey is a giant humanoid - Engineer1 has posted evidence of this from the teaser trailers. One of his stills distinctly shows a giant on the finge of the Map Room. It wouldn't surprise me if the giant head is a representation of him.

Imagine meeting some other life form that is vaguely human...but not enough to garner comfort!!?

What are you and who are we now?

The idea that the Engineers of space are human opens up so much possibility...it's scary and moving at the same time.

The confirmation comes mainly from the most accurate leak that happened in april.
QuoteThere is a huge silver bust of the engineers head, it is approximately 15m high. It appears that the engineer is sort of leader of a civilisation and there is a cult around his personality and his alien creations

Spoiler
April 23, 2011

I was speaking with a guy who is working on the set of prometheus and he showed me some pictures and told me a bout the storyline. The space jockey that you see in alien who has had his chest busted open is the guy who engineers the aliens. He sends the aliens to planet that he wants to take over. The aliens kill the locals and he flys in and pillages the land of its resources. It seems as though he is responsible for the aliens creation, i'm guessing that he is some kind of super scientist.

The engineer is played by some huge guy who is 8ft tall. He appears even bigger in the space jockey scene from Alien as he is wearing a space suit. He appears to have died in a seat that looks like it is some sort of weapon control, this is in fact the navigation system that the space ship uses to open worm holes and plot its course. Perhaps the aliens revolted and, knowing that he has been impregnated, he is desperately trying to return home to have the alien extricated?

He showed me some pictures from the set. There is a huge silver bust of the engineers head, it is approximately 15m high. It appears that the engineer is sort of leader of a civilisation and there is a cult around his personality and his alien creations, this is probably due to the fact that he has mastered the technology that continues to provide the resource requirements of his home world. I also saw a picture of the actor who plays the engineer in what appeared to be some sort of cryo-chamber.

Very Gigeresque, I can see what they mean when they say you'll be able to see "strands of DNA" from Alien. My take is that this movie will be in the same vein as "Soldier" was to "Bladerunner".

Space Jockey inclusion and Weyland, complete with a Weyland-Yutani 'proto-symbol', is a lot more than a passing similarity.

It's the same continuity.

I think Alien and prometheus will tie in alot more than soldier did to blade runner (didn't Paul W S Anderson direct soldier? lol) but it will be subtleties until the last 8 minutes or so where Scott will hit us with a double whammy which will make us Alien fans think "ahhhh right now this is the DNA scott mentioned it's substantial and i'm happy he took this approach" I don't think Scott will mislead us about prometheus, he's been straight with us and i liked Lindeloffs speech about it preceding the events of Alien and not directly leading into it (though as a writer i don't rate him that much, his previous works have never grabbed my attention, but that's just me being picky lol). It's surprising how much information a picture can give us, and all of you guys are shit hot at picking up on things, and thats why i like coming here atleast a few hours 6 nights a week. I think the defining point for me about prometheus will be what the engineer looks like and how big it is, i think it's going to freak us all out, just it's size. And this massive head? is it just a massive symbol? or is there something inside it the engineer uses? How will the engineer interact with humans? we have heard the word "perverse" being mentioned. Then we have that pic of that mutated looking guy jumping onto a crew member? That pic kind of had me  concerned a bit because my mind is set on a plot way beyond human mutation, kind of a smart sci fi thriller that turns itself on it's head and completely throws the viewer with it's cleverness. I just hope Rothman and his stool pushers, don't butcher this film so it's easier for mainstream audiences to understand. Let's hope this film gets the rating deserves to give it justice.

I really hope that the race is just some door that adjust to the DNA of the people that come in because if Jocks are just some big dudes this world becomes less Alien with this movie.

Fantastic image

Disappointing though that the SJ is just a big human and not a distinctively 'alien life-form' as Giger pretty clearly and brilliantly depicted and as Dallas retorted when he first saw it in the 1979 movie.

You have a giant humanoid head (that is the Engineer's face from a report dated april 2011 that talk about the giant sculpture before we even heard about it).
You have a giant seat in front of the starmap console (and a tiny human).
You have Scott saying the SJ is a suit.
You have a blurry but humanoid nonetheless being near the rising chair.
And you have the famous Giger's mural that shows you an alive and kicking Humanoid Engineer.

I guess it's a safe bet that they will be giant humanoids, but hey you wanna play it safe i respect that ;)

Well safe bet or not in your eyes but again Speculation. No one has even commented on what the space jockies look like. If people want to put 1 and 1 together and get 2 then be my guest. but at the end of the day untill the film comes out then every theory someone comes up with in regards to what they look like is pure speculation

Hello,

So far it's more "Ridley, Lindelof, Magazines & friends pseudo
"reliable" source told me soooooooo"
from what I understood
you tried to say since your arrival.

QuoteYou have a giant seat in front of the starmap console (and a tiny human).
You have a blurry but humanoid nonetheless being near the rising chair.

Well it can be anything.
Even the "mutant" whatever thing it is.
Don't misunderstood me by the way,
I'm not saying it's not gonna be the engineer,
just it can be anything, even an holograms.
That's why it is called speculation because the
product isn't out yet.

QuoteAnd you have the famous Giger's mural that shows you an alive and kicking Humanoid Engineer.

I don't know what everyone is referring about this giger wall.
If you take a look at the thing it for sure "seems" to be BUT
it's nowhere close to the original wall thing which was bio-mech,
you know like with bones things, pus*y & di*k shapes blablabla.
Everything seems too "technology" in this movie.
Even the space jockey seat place has changed into a more
technological place rather a bio-mech phantasm from Hans Ruedi.

I fear the "Bio" giger thing in this movie will be into the
Story itself with the jars DNA & the characters / relations / gods /
terraforming bullshit and it won't be subtle like in ALIEN with
sexual meanings all over the place in the set or in the manner
the characters act.

The more they tell of the movie and show, the more
I am disappointed.
The worse being "original ideas" that aren't.
Unless you find holograms for SJ originals, Fitness costume
ultra sexy for survival purpose originals, SJ being a suit originals,
I could continue on everything I see into the previous video and
interviews.
It's just a déjà vu.
