That comment right there discredits this joker. We KNOW what that is...we've seen it in ALIEN, and the teaser for Prometheus. Someone is being willingly naive.
Nothing much more to say about it.
you are right. even before seeing all the trailer-footage (and the jockey chair pics), we knew already that the jockey will be in it.
this line makes it even more obscure:
QuoteThis was described quite clearly several times by, let's call him, Agent X, as the 'alien' which appears in the flick. The 'DNA' traces are very clear whether this is a new monster with human, xenomorph and Space Jockey mixed up together... who knows?
i don't think that they even knew what the hell they're talking about.
poor journalism, but at least we got the pic.
to me the reason why it looks slightly different than the head in the trailer is that it's a living one and not a sculpture or a fossilized one.
and why does it not look like giger's jockey, you might ask...
giger stated in the making of... alien, that he never was finished with the design, so it is legit that it has now some differences (30 years later). new artists = newer updated version of a vision.
i see a space jockey in that pic and nothing else. no facehugger tail (even i theorized it in a thread, several months ago), no xenomorph dna. it has a humanoid look yes, but the first jockey had also a humanoid head, arms & hands.
by the way: who were that asshole who leaked the space jockey?
i never could do that to scott, fox or any other financial backer.
