Eh, but you do know, That the space croissant in the prometheus teaser trailer was exploding and falling from The sky, and even when rolling around the planet, it still hold up without major hull damage. And the scene with the SJ chair coming uo, u see a humanoid who might be a living space jockey without the infamous suit. But maybe the derelict was indeed a derelict but got reactivated through the mutated human Or a reborn SJ through Shaw.

yeah you do see a ship crashing and exploding and it is a jockey ship...however that human we see while chair is coming up looks small compared to the scale of the jockey and the chair..their scale is much closer to dallas

suits - confirmed But the ship does seem just as dead and empty as the derelict from alien, assuming its not the same ship.

Well, it depends on where the giant face is revealed. On earth or on the unknown planet where they land? But since it is obcious, that the SJ in Alien was only a biomechanic suit, It really could be a humanoid who look Similar to humans. The SJ might be really the blue bold guy seen in the teaser trailer who looks quite similar to Seth from StreetFighter IV.

no its in space...we see a few shots of them exploring the place while in space suits with their helmets on..thing is the annunaki are depicted as human as well just larger than us....and then yeah there is that large blue guy..the fact is the space jockey suits also reveal that whatever they are they are bipedal, have two arms, two legs

once again, absolutely the lowest analytical skills and deductive powers are being used by the op. first of all, what makes you think the space jockeys are supposed to represent annunaki? secondly, if everything the jockeys designed or collected looked like them, how do you explain the alien or the facehugger? thirdly, don't raise questions with a single sentence. especially when it's based off a bunch of rather dimwitted assumptions. also, that guy is not the space jockey. it's either another race or a mutant. but it's not the jockey. they already revealed the jockey skull(with cranial suture marks) and it looks exactly how it should. like a non-humanoid.

Possible plot hooks there-all been discussed. Anything is possible at this point. Personally I think it will be more disturbing than any of those ideas.

well is very plausible ... can be a mix of fake spoilers and ideas but can be also quite true ... i remember some old infos talking about a barren planet ( mars ) and the bald dude can be our "friend" SJs ( we possibily see him in the medical room ) .... .... sound a bit silly but i fear that can be true ....

rebel sj...eww stopped reading right there. hackneyed fan fictions writers shouldn't try publish their bs.

These "rumors" sound like they come from the first, leaked, plot synopsis that appeared on this site last year.

This might be just a rumor, but if it is the real plot, then my conclusion would be that the rebel SJ helps the humans to create a bio weapon which will be the protoform aliens to fight against the other SJs. However, the aliens Have their own instinct and will and poses also a threat to mankind. It was so wrong!

Well gift doesn't necessarily mean the one that you want as to your Santa remark! I wasn't making the assumption that whatever Shaw gets is warm as fuzzy. As a more neutral being perhaps the gift is to get us back on track to other designs. But your right in that my original thought wasn't one of malevolence. The engineers could also just be burning us like ants with a magnifying glass for the hell of it. Or in more direct movie related terms, infecting humans to see what happens. That seems kind of boring but for sure disturbing.

i've thought of the sjs as benevolent/neutral simply studying the creatures and perhaps quarantining it...that's until the retardation of aliens by james cameron ruined that effect. but that film doesn't really exist anyway. but i don't buy the gooey, heart warming and all too cliche "twist" that the aliens were really going to be santa clause, and we ruined that and have to pay the price. nice plot for a twilight zone episode. but this is an adult movie with a profound and original story and has to live up to alien. i don't think they'd take that route.

Yet mankind has proven to be cruel In our history. So much hatred, violence, greed that lead to many wars and genocides and still going on in the present. I csn understand that the SJ would like to erase us from universe when they know our violent nature. My question is, will the xenomorph bw created by the humans or by the SJs?

I love how so many are willing to talk shit on Cameron, yet Aliens was a masterpiece and those same people will be in the theater dangling from the sack of Cameron to see his next movie.

I read in a recent article that scott said the space jockey was a suit and not a being but its a suit that the 1979 crew thought was a fossil.. Any thoughts on that???

@walterhiller I agree with you. This is not the kind of movies that a motivational speaker could exhibit ... :) :D XD

I can assure you that I won't be in line to see Cameron's next movie. Still haven't seen Avatar. Aliens was lame. Took a masterpiece like Alien and made it into a kiddie shoot-em-up film. No thanks.

no, i've read reports of the same. either you're all fantasizing or they removed that particular shot. perhaps too revealing or straight forward. but you can deduce a pregnancy scenario from the other snippets in the trailer.

I remember my first reaction to seeing that shot was "Wow, Noomi's character gets impregnated by a facehugger?!?!?!? B-b-b-ut Ridley said there'd be no xenomorphs in this picture! Must. Hibernate. Until. June."

I don't know about the Comic-con trailer, but there were brief shots in the leaked teaser trailer that didn't make the official version. I brought them up in a new topic I titled, "The Forest Through The Trees', but here's an excerpt that might bring light to your question: "When the official version of the teaser trailer hit, I poured over it endlessly, as I’m sure all of you did, and I noticed something or rather its absence…Two shots, one second apart that could originally be seen in the leaked version of the trailer that appeared over Thanksgiving weekend. They are both particularly interesting in spite of their poor quality. The first, at :37 sec, shows a black skeletal hand, perhaps it’s not a hand, but something moving over the edge of a cryo-unit. What it is or isn’t, I don't know, but am very curious about. It’s alive, it’s moving and it sure as hell does not look human. The second, at :39 sec, is of a bulge moving in someon'es stomach. It, again, looks very strange and appears for less than a second, so it’s rather difficult to hazard a guess at what it might be. These shots flank, before and after, a shot of the SpaceJockey chair rising out of the floor, as appears in the official trailer." The leaked trailer is still available at: http://www.disclose.tv/action/viewvideo/83539/PROMETHEUS_Leaked_Trailer_Enhanced_De_noised/ The second of the two shots might be what your referring to, but I only may have seen it wrong, concidering the quality is so poor. Check it out and tell me what you think.

Yes, that scene does exist, my guess is that (as mentioned above) it revealed too much. Fans would get all excited at the notion of a chestburster scene - when in actuality it could be/and probably will be something very different. There were at least 6 versions of the trailer, we've only seen 2 of them. One which made the initial release. Maybe Fox will release that trailer you're thinking about as a follow-up as we near the release date. Maybe it will host even more revealing and speculative scenes. It would certainly be a good idea from a marketing stand point.

Here's the image I mentioned and it's what you're looking for. Check out this link for the leaked version of the teaser: http://www.disclose.tv/action/viewvideo/83539/PROMETHEUS_Leaked_Trailer [img]http://s3-ak.bebo.com/image/8386610908a12953575874l.jpg[/img]

it could land in any position, really. even with the tongs facing the ground. in prometheus, it's possible that the upright position is in fact the right position due to the space jokey(s) trying to correct the descent path for it into a soft landing. though i have a strange feeling the front of the ship is the "head" of the compass. and that it flies while dragging the two tails behind it.

That's an interesting point-of-view but perhaps landing/crashing head first (with the head where you say it is) is the best manoeuvre to quickly and easily disembark from the ship. But then as I found, this kinda contradicts the other Derelict in Alien whic has the eggs and cockpit parallel to the planetoid surface.

Nice idea, and i now also think that the SJ vessel is designed for such hard impact Landing. Any other human vessel would desintegrate to millions of pieces. But this one is strong enough. it also has to be mentioned, that the derelict is a gigantic vessel, maybe the size of 10 Nimitz class carriers. And we dont know what else it transported besides the eggs.

So how about this: The Derelict ship in Alien shows no damage of a mid air collision like in the trailer for Prometheus. That leads me to believe there might be a second ship. Also as far as landing/crash landing or whatever, what if the sj ship takes off a planet like we acctually do on earth. Like the real space shuttle, the astronauts face up into the sky. As they level off or land on earth, everything is right side up where its supposed to be. So maybe the alien ship is ready for take off. So what do you all think?

this info was for the movie Alien 1979.

the urns are the start of the egg/face huggers check out the blog ,,, DAVIDS green slime ,and have look at picture of the hand pulling out the green slim , ,,its a early stage of a egg

sorry ,,should be index finger blog

the alien life cycle chart cant read a word of it any chance you can rescan it?

In the teaser trailer they somewhat took something back to their ship on a scan table whick looks like A skull of the jockey. But like ridley stated, the space jockey we know is actually a biomechanic suit. the question is, who or what is inside? Could it be much smaller? and who knows how intelligent the aliens are supposed to be. remember, the aliem in the original movie was only a day old.

Cant understand the hate for guy pierce he's a very good actor and very underrated . Everything i have seen him in has been quality or highly entertaining .

yeah the ship is not aerodynamic but do spaceships need to be aerodynamic? i mean sure airplanes do but not space ships

Well, one thing seems pretty conclusive to me, especially after seeing that super-lightened picture - the thing in the chair from Alien is the same as those things in the corridor. They are suits, as Scott has mentioned somewhere previously. And what is in the suit is likely that big blue Smurf/Navi thing from the jockey chair clip in the Prometheus trailer. Any other aliens/xenos in this film will take on a different appearance to anything we have seen before. There has been talk of 'skeletal monstrosities' so maybe we'll see some sort of proto Alien/Xenomorph created by God (excuse the pun) knows what process. Probably us Humans sticking our noses in where they shouldn't in all likely hood. Now, sit back and enjoy the ride ......... :D

I agree that this must be a publicity photo, and not a scene from the movie. It's been said when filming scenes with the jockeys they'll be using the same technique done in the Lord of the Rings, to make the actors playing the jockeys in those suits look much taller than the humans. As someone said, it looks like the 2 suits could be waiting to use the restroom.

well i think the events in Prometheus are precisely what gives the company previous knowledge in the alien series

[i]stopped reading when it got to the "proto chest burster" seriously, do you use your brain at all. why would such a small creature require such a large humanoid suit? come on...please.[/i] "Why would such a small creature require such a large humanoid suit?" Don't you think you just answered your own question Einstein? Let me help you... It's because it's such a small creature and is therefor physically limited... In any event it's just wild speculation for fun. I've looked through your post and all you can come up with is to call people idiots. Obviously your a titan of intellect, so why don't you go to IMBd where your mensa skills will be appreciated. Thanks and goodbye..

[b][i]"The Giant Blue humanoid is not the SJ and does not wear the SJ suit. He is the GOD/creator being. The Space Jockey's are his servants and/or slaves".[/i][/b] Anyone read Childhoods End by Arthur C Clarke? I see some parallels with this idea that I was thinking about over the weekend i.e. the jockeys are servants of some higher power.
