You're a true soldier for the cause Timmy the ultramorph.
Thank you.
You're most welcome and correct in the same black goo offers different results in how much was applied and certainly the delivery mechanism drucea.

I'm sure we'll get more of that (black goo advanced applications lesson) in the prequel novel if David 8 did to those on Paradise what other Engineers have done to occupants on other worlds.

I know Ati...this is so awesome.
At this point, I buy the hard-copy of what I want! I try to limit it nowadays, because there are some DVDs from my childhood that just have no place here anymore, but I don't get rid of them for some reason! As for place of purchase, I don't have a preference between online or in-store. I f it is something like an Alien film, I will just go to a store on release day. It is a bit trivial, but I always want to watch it tha tday, so I don't risk the shipping from online stores taking too long, you know?
I do the same with CDs too (mostly. I do rip the purchased CD to have on my devices and a backup copy everytime), but I still enjoy going out and getting the hard copy of something I loved in the cinema!
For now, steaming services or cheap rental deals on Google Play or iTunes and my lmiting of what I buy hard copy keeps the collection manageable. I am sure that in the next 5-10 years I will begin just purchasing a digital copy of some movies. As the technology keeps improving and gaining steam, I will have to assimilate.
Maybe there is more AC because it was selling quicker lol
But good for you, moving some copies to a Eye-Level ;)
I agree maybe it should have been left out, i would have liked to see the other sequence added though
I think the earliest that pre-production would start would be early next year. Scott is supposed to film at least one movie before Awakening, I believe.
Great find, Ati! Definitely would have been cool to film that prologue and then release it as a short after Prometheus came out. Also, I LOVE the cover! Very cool.
Eww fast and the furious are shit, teach them to watch good movies.
Well during shooting of Alien Covenant, RS/FOX and Logan would have discussed a sequel as AC was being set up for a sequel. It would appear that FOX/RS would want to get the next installment out sooner rather than latter and i would assume they would have wanted to begin Production some time in 2017.
After Alien Covenants release at the Box Office Ridley Scott had confirmed that Logan is at that very Moment working on a sequel and they hope to start production within the year for release about 18 months.
So a sequel released sometime in 2019 looked on the cards.
Due to the disappointment with Alien Covenant, who knows what the plan is now, i think they are having to reconsider some things and you can bet at FOX HQ they will be wanting to know why Alien Covenant did not do as well as planned.
So i would think this could delay things... But i still think the sequel will go into Production within the next 8-12 Months and i will Safely Assume that the Next Movie will be released in 2019.
Has to be Ripley for me! What a way to end her arc. I mean, the effects of that shot were just AWFUL, but the emotion overrides that for sure.
Number two is Dallas' demise. One of the scarier and best crafted scenes in the franchise. Dallas was trying to protect his crew and make up for his letting the creature in earlier, but ended up meeting an unfortunate egg-morphing death!
My number three would have to be Oram's death, I think. It just, it was the first Xeno encounter in the timeline, Oram (a man of faith) birthed a metaphorical demon from the metaphorical Devil, and it was violent as HELL (it frightened me a little). I am in the minority on this, but I thought that the Baby burster was amazing! Weird as hell to see at first, but that design, the music ( I LOVE that piece of the score), and David interacting with it lovingly reminds me how much an icon the Xenomorph is. It really hits home, for me. So definitely a great death scene.
Thanks for this ATI
So the Novel follows the earlier drafts more where Weyland is not on the ship?
Nice find ati. I like the way that website organized it. I STILL WANT TO READ THE WHOLE THING MYSELF, DAMMIT! Why only Japan????
Good stuff. Nice to have gifted students in your class ! ! !
So effing hilarious. Thanks for making and/or sharing.
I think NIN The Day the World Went Away was used for one of the Terminator movie trailers and I loved it. Was very eery with all of the scenes of wasteland.
I was listening to the Imagine Dragons Believer song the other day and it made me think of the scene where David bombs the Engineers...
"Falling like ashes to the ground
Hoping my feelings, they would drown
But they never did, ever lived, ebbing and flowing
Inhibited, limited
Till it broke up and it rained down
It rained down, like...Pain"
Couldn't you play as the xeno in one of the AVP games? I didn't play it so I don't know what the xeno vision looked like, if differnt at all.
I did like the echolocation thing in the VR video, but it still looked like regular vision.
I still wonder if the Juggernaught's cryo-chamber caused the mutation that was growing from Shaw's head?
I loved Ledward's back-burster! Also, pretty cool seeing the Engineers get bombed!
Wow, the first scene is a lot more interesting. It reveals a little about the relation between Weyland and Yutani (although not really anything useful), and that David can hack into ships and setellites apparently. If canon, would be useful in determining how other events could have been caused.
Straight up slasher fight: Jason Voorhees, Freddy & Michael Myers!!
SciFi: Kylo Ren!!
I envy you VivisectedEngineer, everytime I ask my students about their favorite movies I get "fast and furious" as answers.
Wooops double post, sorry.
Thank you very much Ati! I didn't know about it... this is amazing! Such a shame that it was released only in Japan. *sigh* I love Prometheus, a real book would look wonderful in my collaction. *be right back learning japanese*
don't think we should see what any of the creatures see unless they have visible eyes of some form. the reason the xeno doesn't have eyes is because it is/was viewed as being scarier not having eyes
Great find Ati. Excellent analysis BigDave. This topic is now a reference point.
Thank you so much for this Ati.
The xeno attacks the claw in that scene. It sees the claw as a serious threat.
Awesome! These are the children of our future! They will face the monsters of Mars and the creatures of the moons around Jupiter! :D They will know everything they need.
I appreciate the comments For Close Encounters and thank you for the debate.
Yes, I would have expected the xenomorph to bypass anything but Daniels at that point but it is believable to me once I factored in the hits it took before. In the novelization, Daniels thinks for a moment and gains satisfaction that the xenomorph is moving away from her during the shooting.
Here are shots of the claw before and after the acid bath (see below).


Wait I'm not the youngest then!, I'm a senior this year, but yeah I've liked them movies since I was in like 3rd or 4th grade
Timmy the ultramorph - The movie opens in Japan in September (15th), then we have Blade Runner 2049 in October, so I think no official info/announcement before these events.
Timmy the ultramorph - It was a five star action! :D
As for the gotg 2, please fans forgive me, but that is an awful movie in my opinion, unwatchable...
some of them are only announced even in 2017... And Blomkamp Alien will never happen.
Awesome! :) According to the image, Scott is remaking Alien at the moment.
/Production: Alien - And he is not young in the picture./

I will be glad when Daniels gets eaten by an alien so I don't have to see her anymore ;)
I was quite happy when Oram got bumped off. And his chestburster was a real beauty.
Agreed :( sadly.
