Closer look at a possible Space Jockey? (SPOILERS) (Read 75,134 times)

The Hyena

QuoteNow this nullifies 70% of the EU that features this creature.

In honesty, thats more because none of the movies bothered to establish what the creature was, even in Alien.

Some of the EU Jockey material was kinda cheesy anyway.

The Runner

So the Xenomorph that came out of the Jockey in the first movie would pretty much be just a giant normal human spawned one? :-\

The Hyena

Thats what it was in the EU.

The only Jockey-Alien that looked different was the Infestation one.

Now imagine this is just a hoax, disinformation...showing the head/helmet and this guy next to the chair...but never the real thing (both together,SJ in the chair). So everyone thinks that it is a helmet and the bald guy is the SJ. But in the movie you see a "real SJ", no suit, as a lifeform and the bald guy is just a servant or experiment, ancestor...or another alien species (the round thing above the waterfall is a classic UFO haha) that explores the area or whatever  :laugh:

They're controlling the European Union too? That explains a lot.

That's what I'm wondering.

Yes, I agree. But seeing all the hard-work, like the illustrations etc. just going down the drain like this is kinda sad.

Damn you Damon Lindelof and Jon Spaihts! Knew you'd f**k this up! hehe.

I dunno. I think there is still enough room to believe the Jockey's are an actual race of Alien creatures and what we're seeing here is a combination of Jockey and human DNA. It is disappointing to see this avatar look alike as the Jockey as opposed to some ancient looking giger creation. I guess we still have to find out where the eggs came from and how the jockey might have been impregnated.  Maybe that will be interesting?

YOU DO MUTILATE?

i don't see why people are still talking about biomechanics. they're simply not there in any of the press stuff we've seen

I agree, however the art surrounding them was always inconsistent.

It was stated in the Comic Con footage description:  "There will be biomechanoids."

I, for one, welcome our new humanoid space jockey overlords.

Nice try. Here, EU = Extended Universe.

You mean a normal human being - that large?

Actually, I quite like this, although I'm not jumping the gun and accepting anything as confirmation.

But a Gigeresque humanoid certainly raises it from the bug analogy of the Queen/hive stuff so it has the potential to be a much more profound story. And remember Gary Oldman's make-up job in Hannibal? That was creepy as hell and he was human. Seeing this things face could change things a lot but I'm more on board with this than the 'bug hunt' monsters of the sequels.

And if this dude really is the engineer (Jockey) then its easier for them to go to the human perspective.

because now they don't have to waste loads of money making the rumored "animatronic" jockey.

they can just make a tall actor do the work.

Fair enough.

But still doesn't prove that it could be the "jockey" does it?

it could be any other type of being who is inspecting the telescope.
