That's a cool find, one I'd thought about as well. However, if you read a bit later in the book, when Kane has descended into the lower levels of the ship (or beneath the ship), he equates the "fresh" eggs found there with the empty urn found by Dallas. I think the intent from the book was that Dallas had found what was ultimately an opened egg. It's still interesting though, and I wonder if the novel provided any of the ideas and concepts ultimately showing up in Prometheus. Since the Space Jockey isn't in the book either, there's a better chance of finding clues in some of the discarded ideas presented in "The Book of Alien" or discussed in the featurettes on the Blu-Ray set.

Hey now... I've been mostly just reading everything for guidance since I have no time to really comment about this movie. But I'm ready to freaking jizz in my pants that Ridley and Giger are actually involved in this flick!!!!!! I wanna freakin sleep until the movie is released!!!! Go Spartacus!!!! Good job man :-)

When your begin about this movie in every facebook comment you place, in every conferance you have and send the poster to all your friends(hell yeh, there going nuts again!). I love my friends...

I can top it lol I have a tattoo of a Alien on one valve and a Pred on the other lol

Awesome!!!! Just to see that ship again in a lively manner was epic. And whatever is holding one of the crew (I think female) may be the Space Jockey or a morphed crew member is enticing!!!! Thanks folks for this view of the bootleg :-) Holy S&#T!!!!!! I can't wait! "Jizz In My Pants" segway lol

@ Franz & Marty - no sorry guys I hadn't seen the trailer (have now tho! - Thanks there Marty, made my day!!! hehe)

Every time I watch that leaked footage I still get the chills.

@herk..No worries dude..ahh sure its awsome aint it....gets better everytime..its just one of those things you never get sick of looking at..

I don't think this is as much a prequel as it is a side-story that takes place before Alien. You can have new movies with different plots, different characters, and different creatures and have it based in the Alien universe. A good example of this would be the movies [i]Blade Runner[/i] and [i]Soldier[/i]. Both movies take place in the same universe. Ridley Scott will probably do a much better job than Paul Anderson and I think [i]Prometheus[/i] and [i]Alien[/i] will be similar.

I think that Prometheus may enlighten some people to the Alien franchise. More exposure to the xenomorph legacy. And to Dark Horse Comics... This installment of the Alien legacy is very interesting... a "new insight" to what was given to us in the first Alien comic Book from Dark Horse. Actually, maybe it was the second. I was hoping there would be some connection to "Aliens : Earth War" comics when I initially heard about this movie. However, I think that AVP took that and ruined it. Well, not ruined it, rather made it impossible to bring another installment of the xenomorph on Earth. Hmmm....

Good poster. I like it. Just like Scott and Rothman said this is not an Alien movie merely in the same universe as Alien. So it will be liked to Alien. I reckon the less it's tied to Alien the better it will be because Scott wont be chained with past movies. mind you I'm disappointed too as I need to know how it all started. You can see more man detail and it looks like a construct like Frankinstein. So if this is real and I bet it is, the core of the movie is about our creation.

At least it's not Hans Zimmer...

Mr Scott do not ruin this for us please lol

"deep rolling thunder came upon their shores"!

Must interject.... I once saw this movie called Creature... when I was a kid, I realized it may have been somewhat of a ripoff of Alien. Took me a couple of years to differentiate between the two lol (i.e. the alien design). Am I the only one who thinks this????

For me it was the remake of Invasion of the Body Snatchers. The notion that we would lose, as a species just disturbed me as a child. Not to mention Leonard Nimoy being at the head of the entire invasion.

ReeceMacoy wrote› spartacus is that close encounters??? been a long time since i've seen that also we are naming those films you mentioned or something automatic/mechanical??? don't get the hint YES ! The first film was the Exorcist. the 2nd was Psycho, and the last one was the hardest but has an even greater and densely bleak atmosphere about 5 times that of the original Alien and it was called "Nosferatu" which along with 1926's "Faust", are probably the reason movies like Alien and Aliens ever got made to begin with!!!

Creature's makers started a law suit against the makers of Alien and dropped it after deciding it was not in their best interest to sue and might not be that easy to prove.

I don't usually like the more traditional score writers like the ones you have mentioned. I think as a film score their material is far to cliched. Good but completely expected. I like soundtracks that are a bit more edgy & surreal.

-The Last Samurai - Bladerunner -Chocolat - Picnic at hanging rock -many of zimmer ... but not in great movies ( inception , da vinci code , pearl harbour.... the thin red line e dark knight were good ) -many of morricone ( the early ones ) - sunshine - almost all the lord of the rings soundtrack - many of michael kamen ( that i had the pleasure to know )

I enjoyed the Lord of the Rings Score as well. ...Band of Brothers as well for Micheal Kamen

and the Social Network because I really enjoy Trent Reznor's work, especially on the new "Girl with a Dragon tattoo."

I have to say Jerry Goldsmith's score for Alien. The most scary music I have ever heard,still cant listen to it with the lights out. Another fave- Brad Fiedel,Terminator 2

Has to be The Lord Of The Rings, All three films, Howard Shore is a genius! Some of this music still makes me cry!

Goldsmith for Alien. Zimmer for TDK

For me... The Dark Knight..and Michael Collins by Goldenthal

Goldsmith for Alien Ennio Morricone for John Carpenters 1982 The Thing. Carmine Coppola for Apocalypse Now Clint Mansell for Moon

Mine was one I cannot remember the name of but it belonged to the film "The Guns OF Navarone" I also really really LOVED the original score for the first AIRPORT film , think it was the best part of that movie too !!! LOL. I also loved the score for Once Upon A Time In The West and Once Upon A Time in America, both directed by my all time fav director Sergio Leone and both were Ennio Morricone creations I think. I loved Hans Zimmer's score for Ridley Scott's "Black Rain" as well, just loved it !!! But 2 of the best all time I ever heard were "The Sting" by Marvin Hamlish and undoubtedly the Theme for JAWS by William Goldman !!!

Frantz you mentioned Michael Kamon One of thing that Kills me is one year Roger Waters did a One Off Concert of "The Pros and Cons Of Hitchhiking album and the 2 guys who played on that album, Eric Clapton and Michale Kamon helped him recreate the exact sound from the album LIVE IN CONCERT, and I missed it !!! KAMON is a freaking musical genius !!!

the kindness of that person surpassed his musical genius ... an awesome human being .

I'd love to know what you do about that guy Frantz, Klaatu Halloween wasn't that bad either...Carpenter is a talented movie score guy as well, not many people know that. 2001; A space odyssey had an awesome score also as did The Exorcist with "Tubular Bells" by Michale Oldfield

I forgot 2001 S.O. !!!! A classic.......and one of the most brilliant films of all time. Also not mentioned yet was The Crow with the late Brandon Lee son of Bruce Lee. The soundtrack was incredible....

I remember "Marathon Man" with Dustin Hoffman had a FANTASTIC one too by a guy named Michael Small... Check it out !!! THIS IS ONE OF THE TOP 5 "UNSUNG" ALL TIME GREATS AS FAR AS MOVIE SCORES GO.

and then there was the score to this film folks... and if you think about it, it was a pure masterpiece !!! [img]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v234/LT.HIGHTIMES/Carrieposter.jpg[/img] [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i2ns5pQF33U]Carrie[/url] you can here some of it by clicking the link underneath the poster the part that sticks out for me is just before the blood gets spilled in the gymnasium there was this buildup music that was incredible !!!

That's the same body we saw in the picture where shaws character and some other chick are kneeling down looking at something, very interesting observation. Also the white coloring in the poster almost looked like an outline of a face or something

Yer btw there is probably an error of "ignorance" from the interviewer that think that Theron , since she is the most famous actress , is also the lead character ...so she make an horrible mistake asking Sigourney to compare Ripley to Vickers . And from another news ive got that should be only Weyland , without the Yutani

"Scoop Frantz" Putting the "Scoop", In "Inside Scoop" G-d Luv Ya !
