You gave me that one Tec-B Ok which actor appears in Aliens but is uncredited? who did this actor play? A point for each

Hicks, cant remember the name
Reply
Tec-BPrometheus ForumPrometheus Movie Trivia Game!
is it a reasonably notable actor and are you using actor in the traditional sense that includes male and femal actors or can we safely assume male? Hang on.. this isn't 20 questions is it lol right will go do some investigating

Hicks is correct. The actor in question appears in Aliens as Hicks with his back towards camera. they had to leave the shot in as they were a week into shooting when the actor got fired

spacejockPrometheus ForumDec 12th Trailer Release
This could only get better if the soundtrack was made by Nine Inch Nails i have to say. I wish Ridley Scott would realize that he should drop Hans Zimmer for Trent Reznor.

SpartacusPrometheus ForumDec 12th Trailer Release
I am from Montreal and Nine Inch Nails has a big following here, Fantastically creative Band, but IMO that Background Score was too good, even for Them...!!! P.S. I also Absolutely Loved Hans Zimmer's score for "Black Rain", which was, incidently, directed by none other than Ridley Scott!

Herk MondoPrometheus ForumHigher Intelligent Parasites?
Sorry Bella, although an interesting thought - I really do hope not! It sounds faaaaar too 'Stargate' to me! I really can't see Scott going down the "Go'auld" route.

GavinPrometheus ForumAliens vs Predator Extinction 2 anyone?
Emulating anything above 32bit is not really recommended, they use more resources and IMO less stable.

Agent MothmanPrometheus ForumCould the Urns/Ampules be eggs?
That's an interesting thought, good thinking. I'm glad I could help.
Reply
Herk MondoPrometheus ForumCould the Urns/Ampules be eggs?
I don't think they're 'eggs' as such no - as they have vertical 'writing' or text of some sort on them that has been seen in higher-res close ups.

Micro changes in air densityPrometheus ForumMystery
Good question. But I don't thing they'd be wearing all that fancy gear and there would probably be more evidence of earth type stuff lying around.
Reply
Thadus 12Prometheus ForumMystery
It was the lack of space suits that has thrown me. We see them wearing suits later on,this suggests an alien planet with atmosphere or, 2 alien planets?
Reply
Thadus 12Prometheus ForumMystery
What if it is a buried alien structure/spaceship on Earth?
Reply
FrantzPrometheus ForumMystery
can be of course ...that would explain a dead fossilized jockey here .... and they find them alive on another planet . That could be the very beginning of the movie ...btw would be quite strange that she have around 2 people that are in the crew too ( Imora and David )
Reply
Thadus 12Prometheus ForumMystery
All could be scientists in the same field tho? The fossilised Jockey would make perfect sense,I agree
Reply
Thadus 12Prometheus ForumMystery
What about the giant head being a sort of marker left for us that contains the co-ordinates of the Jockey homeworld?
Reply
FrantzPrometheus ForumMystery
yes that was a theory we did discuss already ...in that first missione you can have that "mercenaries" too .... and the official synopsis talk of a discover made on earth ..that lead to the space trip ...so can be that too
Reply
Tec-BPrometheus ForumMystery
just asking because i don't know if it's been confirmed or not, but is Prometheus confirmed as the title of the film or is this still a working title?
Reply
Thadus 12Prometheus ForumMystery
Its confirmed as Prometheus

Ripley Clone 8Prometheus ForumMystery
My guess is that when their not wearing the spacesuits they are most likely on Earth discovering whatever it is that leads them to the space jockey planet. What i've seen on IMDB and other sites is that these scientist perform a archeological dig and find these alien like objects that question the existence of the human race. Most of that archeological dig takes place underground. So maybe thats why it might be mistaken as the space jockey planet. But i'm not exactly sure. Who really knows, we will have to find out when the movie is released or at least until the trailer is released.

Not sure but assuming it is a mechanical hint I'd say breathing/exhaust. All pipes on anything mechanical like this mean intake/exhaust. http://www.motorcycle-parts.are-us.com/mm5/graphics/00000001/yamaha-raider-exhaust-pipes.jpg My question is, the face huger doesn't appear bio-mechanical at all. Purely biological. So at what point of being inside a human does a purely biological creature become mechanical?? My only conclusion is to blend into it's surroundings it took the form we know as the Xenomorph. Facehugger http://www.modelermagic.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/p1010015.jpg Some cool production shots of the Xeno... wish you could have seen its almost human skull face better in the movie.... http://www.therpf.com/f9/giger-alien-sculpt-alien-1979-pic-heavy-22623/

Exhaust for sure... look at a motorcycle. Anything mechanical really.... My question is, since the facehuggers are, or at least appear, purely biological. Why when they lay a Xeno in a human do they come out looking mechanical?? My only guess is that they blend into their surroundings kind of a thing... not really mechanical but trying to imitate the ship where it hides. Some fun production shots of Xeno, wish you could have seen its face better in the movie. http://www.therpf.com/f9/giger-alien-sculpt-alien-1979-pic-heavy-22623/ Biological hugger http://www.modelermagic.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/p1010015.jpg

Since it was designed by Giger we have to assume its all for reproduction !! The alien hide under soft black coal ... and the careless miner is impregnated when he sit for the well deserved lunch . The problem rise when the miner is over 100kg ...then the alien cant rise and die ...however if the miner is over 150kg the alien explode and all the acid kill both .
