Per this post I just made, I'm happy to report that they fixed the effect in the home video version!: http://www.avpgalaxy.net/forum/index.php?topic=58641.0

To everyone worried about the back tubes going through the floor, I'm happy to confirm this does not happen in the final film. The tubes clearly fold back as it crawls into the hole. (Saw the film last night)

Ye of little faith

It's pretty clear that the tubes bend and don't go through the floor.

So disappointed that this scene wasn't fixed. Ghost xeno confirmed. Come on Ridley.

I hope for the home video release they go back and touch up some of the effects. From the trailers, everything I've seen looks good, but that clip with the Aliens tubes going through the floor just irritates me. Maybe I shouldn't be so picky, but little things like that can take you out of a scene.

I noticed in my second viewing when the Xeno climbs down the ladder (in this clip) the tubes on its back actually fold and bend, they don't just go through the metal floor it looks like here.

Good deal! :)

Just got back from seeing the movie. I was truly appalled at the low quality of some of the effects ie cgi.

It was as if they had run out of sfx budget and had to do some of these cgi pieces on the cheap. Oh well!

Apart from the bad CGI I just hate how the Alien moves towards that door. It appears to move on rails while it was so damn sneaky crawling through that went. And why does it have its tail proned like a scorpion?

It looked like it was sliding along the floor, like it was trying to stop to avoid slamming into the closing doors. That would also explain why the tail was whipped forward all scorpiony.

This is a bit like the Audi product placement promo, but in this case I cannot spot the product.

In another thread it's confirmed 'this' is in the movie but surely not in this form???

Come on man....This is the shit that ruins movies. Dont write that garbage in there lol if you had never saw a Camera before , you would just think it was part of the structure. So the alien knows somebody is on the other end of the Camera??? Thats just dumb

I'll have to watch the full scene, but the Alien has been on the ship at that point for a good bit of time I think. So it might have learned the structures of the ship. Like I said it can learn and adapt. Now if you think it's stupid, that's subjective. I think it's pretty cool that the Alien can figure things out. And it can see judging from the POV shots that we've seen in this particular moment so I'm sure it sees Walter.
