Possible Space Jockey Pictures

[Chris P]

Right on! Those are awesome guys!

[wmmvrrvrrmm]

Well, I suppose we can start asking more questions about whether the space jockey can separate itself from the seat or not

My answer to that is: I don't think it matters. I'm sure Ridley & Co. will make it all work somehow.

well, in a way nothing really matters

[Alien³]

Those pictures are amazing! This is my #1 film to see in 2012.

[Kev Loaf]

Just a thought, but what if it's not a telescope but some sort of cannon that launches the egg/cylinder shaped objects into new planets.

Basically it fires a cocktail of life....

So it's a giant dick?

Not a far stretch, considering Alien.

Wait what?! A giant dick?! What is it doing, pumping the seed of life constantly into the universe. I bloody hope this is not the case.

[NUB DESTROYER]

So Prometheus is a metaphor for stealing God's sperm, which for all intents and purposes is rape.

Frikkin' obscene, please make it happen Riddles.

I hope so. Different Jockey, different story, looser tie to Alien. Which means the film doesn't exist simply to set the derelict on the planetoid.

Dallas said the original appeared fossilized.  I was always under the assumption that the derelict was an ancient thing.  So me it makes more sense that this is a different chair for a different jockey.  Prometheus takes place too closely in the timeline for anything else to make sense.

Anyone noticed that the markings on the Jockey scopes are almost the same too? Looks awesome!

[locusta]

NOW we are talking!

Like the redesign by now allot. Total Giger and still not just a re-brew. WIN!

Lindelof's time travel tropes should address the fossilised aspect, if this movie is an actual prequel.

Isn't there a pic in the leaked ComiCon footage that shows a hand on or near a long object reminiscent of the jockey gun or something?

[Glaive]

"Jockey-gun"??

[ThisBethesdaSea]

Canon? whatever that long telescope like thing the jockey has his/her hands on in A L I E N?

[MrSpaceJockey]

Both images come together very well to form what we see in ALIEN....looking good.

I remember that although I'm not sure if anyone really in the end was so sure what it was other than a human like hand on some apparatus with lights on it. We'll see.

Considering it was designed by Giger, I found it rather tame...though I find it difficult to rationalize that you've gone through life without realizing that the Space Jockey was actually staring up through a gigantic, erect, flayed penis...

...we won't talk about the split glans ('bell-end', for our younger viewers)
