Reproduction Method Official

[Xenomorphine]

This film is steadily confirming its value as unintentionally hilarious comedy gold.

This film is steadily confirming its value as unintentionally hilarious comedy gold.

It really is. I went from skepticism and some doubts about the film based on originall hearing the setting in a small town and seeing the cast to mild enthusiasm, to full blown enthusiasm after seeing the red band trailer and population trailer then back to reality when i heard about the new reproduction method and saw more of the predalien's design.
Now it seems I may enjoy making fun of the movie if its bad and there's enthusiasm for the film once again. lol.

...Alright. I've tried to be nice about it, but since I just can't say anything nice about this thing as a whole I figured this might as well go into the unofficial PredAlien thread.



What...the sweet, merciful hell...is this? I mean, it literally has not only the mutilated "new" mandibles, it also has mandibles on its tongue? This is the same PredAlien that was going to wash my bias away like Greg said, right?



This is the Giger-esque design we were supposed to be so happy about? This fleshy...? Well, let me not get vulgar.




But do you at least see what I'm talking about? No one's made a comment on the putrid sag of this thing, the messy placement of the nailed dreadlocks (which I still can't find a reason for being there), whatever the **** is happening at the back of the crown, or the tubes and shoulder design which just seem ramdomly...there...for some reason.

This design makes no sense. At all. This seems more like a studio compromise than a sophisticated creature design. I've tried to be nice about this throughout, but this maquette shows the PredAlien to be, frankly, ridiculous through and through.

it also has mandibles on its tongue?

Nice!

it also has mandibles on its tongue?

Nice!

that's not right...

[The Chibi Kiriyama]

That's not right, huh?

[Major Alan Schaefer]

I SAW IT LOL i said that's not right like i can't bealive they did that

[The Chibi Kiriyama]

Well, at least one person thinks so...

[Major Alan Schaefer]

Well, at least one person thinks so...

I gues that makes it on the big one like that?

If that's Colin's definition of 'biomechanical', I weep for his definition of 'back to the roots'.

[Major Alan Schaefer]

If you ask me the toy seems to look alot worse than the pics we have so it might not be as bad with good lighting

[Vemados]

I don't think it's so much lighting... I think it'll look better in motion.  Except for the scene where it gets the whip that sucked bad...

[The Chibi Kiriyama]

Again, I've tried to be positive about this. But the more I look at this, the more I feel like...well, it's still not "Newborn" bad, but I'd be lying if I said it was much better.

I hope it's really, really, really dark in this film.

[SiL]

Considering that maquette is made by ADI, yeah, that's what it looks like.

Well, no; the one in the film looks fleshier and less like hard cheap plastic around the mouth. But still.

[Uncanny Antman]

If that's Colin's definition of 'biomechanical', I weep for his definition of 'back to the roots'.

Been thinking the same thing.  This thing is not biomech.

It's, at best, around Alien 3 level.  In fact, the stomach/pelvic/upper thighs area reminds me of the Fury Alien quite a bit.
