**For a high-rez view of the pictures, right click and "view image"** Here is the painting that Dan O'Bannon saw while in talks with making Alien. It was what he showed to Ridley Scott who in turn contacted H.R. Giger. This is the xenomorph's inception: [img]http://xenotron.com/hr_giger_necronom_IV.jpg[/img] This next one is concept art that Giger painted of the alien creature for the first movie. This is probably my favorite rendering of the creature: [img]http://www.xenotron.com/hr_giger_alien_V.jpg[/img] Here's a hieroglyph that Giger painted for the first movie. The long figure around the sides and top is the Egyptian goddess Nut, goddess of the sky. [img]http://www.xenotron.com/g066.jpg[/img] The rest of these pictures are what I'm expecting the alien homeworld to be like. Probably not down to detail, but I think it might be close. Imagine seeing things like this on the big screen, in 3D: [img]http://xenotron.com/hr_giger_alienmonster_III.jpg[/img] [img]http://xenotron.com/hr_giger_biomechanicallandscape_022.jpg[/img] [img]http://xenotron.com/hr_giger_biomechanoid_014.jpg[/img] [img]http://xenotron.com/hr_giger_necronom_V.jpg[/img] [img]http://xenotron.com/hr_giger_newyorkcity_II.jpg[/img] [img]http://xenotron.com/hr_giger_newyorkcity_VIII.jpg[/img] [img]http://xenotron.com/hr_giger_theredeemer.jpg[/img] [img]http://www.xenotron.com/g126.jpg[/img]

Some amazing Giger environs there. It would be good to think we see more of the Sj's homeworld other than the 'canister cave' with the big head.

yes there must be some open or big environments ...they cant do a movie all in a cave and on a spaceship ... Ridley even in his more claustrophobic movies used fantastic views The aliens worlds in Alien are stunning , and we were in 1979 the city landscapes and architecture in bladerunner is stunning the middle east views in kingdom of heaven are fantastic French landscapes in The Duellists made me move and live there the dawn over the city of Rome in The Gladiator is awesome Legend is an underrated movie with fantastic scenery so i dont fear a dull and dark movie

Kind of like an Event Horizon setup but the crew will see real life nightmares rather than experience them psychology and I am betting this ship never comes back as well...going to be awesome, not foe the crew but us fans to see Scott's vision.

I'm thinking it's going to be like [i]Alice Gets Raped in Wonderland[/i]. Or some kind of [url=http://www.cracked.com/article_18932_alien-film-franchise-based-entirely-rape.html]subtext of rape or Freudian sexual trauma of some kind[/url].

Yeah, I kinda get that feeling too with what Scott said. I mean, He did it in Alien with subtle subliminal scenes but I think in this one, he is not holding anything back from us and going to give it to us...

i think you can forget extreme or perverse things with Ridley Scott , its not a torture porn maker , hes a genius of a director and always with alot of taste ...also hes 74 so surely more interested in something else , more deep ... the flame inside us , faith , science , human beings ..not aliens raping crewmen .

I think Ridley is going to try to top the perverse nature of the first film. Age and ability as a director has nothing to do with it. He is to tell an interesting story and more than likely the story is going to be dark, disturbing, shocking and full of sexual perversions, Giger is obviously both a genius and getting up their in age and draws heavily on sexuality for his art. Giger's alien in it's very nature is perverse. Don't look for Ridley to shy away from that. If anything I think his age and reputation will allow him to get away with more.

I'm not expecting torture porn either, but rather some kind of subtext. I'm having a hard time imagining what is meant by "[url=http://www.alienprequelnews.com/2011/04/creatures-in-prometheus-will-do-very.html]do very perverse things[/url]"

there is centipiede 2 or Saw for disturbed kids ..you are talking of Sir Ridley Scott ...name me a sexual perverse scene in 30 years of career and i will agree ....i think is the director with less nudes on screen ... and more , apart the jokes on the naked push ups , neither charlize theron , guy pearce , ben foster , idris elba , michael fassbender are actors for depraved movies

Underlying tones...things that we don't think about when you watch the film but when you get home your like, "did that just happen?". I don't think porn style but rather under tones in the film with the creatures and their designs and perhaps how some of the crew are killed or inhabited. and turned into something. Scott is now a veteran in film making and with Giger finally getting what he wants, we are def. going to see some new things that Scott prob wanted in the first Alien but never did.

I must admit I am not a Ridley Scott film historian but the Dr. Hannibal Lector character was very sexually perverse as was a lot of other characters in that movie. Scott didn't choose to not direct Hannibal because the characters were psychologically damaged and perverts so why would he now?

He always had some things that we re underlying tones. I guess he's older and more bold and maybe he wants to tick off the FOX CEO who pushed the film to a PG13 rating, lol.

..I dont this we will see anything porn wise but the creatures as designed by Giger have sexual designs within them..thats what we will see alot of and how the crew are changed perhaps...but it will be undertones of sexual like the scene in Alien when it killed Veronica Cartwright...but you don't think about it when you see it..it usually munsters in your head for days and weeks and then it hits you at three in the morning when you are sleeping..lol.

Funny that reminded me of when I first heard that an alien prequel was being made and then I heard it was definitely not an alien prequel. I assumed that some movie executive looked at the script and said " This doesn't go along with our AVP franchise at all, we can't do this. We will have someone rewrite it to fit." So Scott just said no it's not an Alien prequel don't worry about it and told a story of how anything alien related would be removed. Then went straight out with the money and did it his way an alien prequel. When he sees the executive he says oh well I spent the money and the film is made you can show and make a fortune or shelve it and look like a fool. This probably didn't happen but I would like to think that was what all the prequel not a prequel foolishness was about.

I know..lol. Yeah, I have this feeling that Scott and the others are blowing smoke up our bottoms to make us think one thing and we get we want after all. Hence being all secretive and always changing the plot and never really setting anything in concrete...

I have been pondering the score to this film and I have this feeling that Trent Reznor is going to be involved...just a feeling but his dark tones and what not fit the premise of this film and I can see Scott chatting with him about the movie...

Is it strange that the composer has not been announced yet? I would have thought we would be hearing this by now since it is in post production. I mean it doesn't seem like it would be a secret who the person is just so the music doesn't get leaked before it's heard on screen. Reznor would be at the top of my list too but even big time directors have to deal with someone saying "No, can't do it, I have other commitments." We can be hopeful though.

Yeah, by now we would of heard of who is composing the score for this film but I am hoping that it will be someone we can appreciate and a score that is worth buying. I guess the post production will be going on for sometime, at least until the winter months. Being the Scott used alot of big sets and actual props, not alot of cgi expect for space and the creatures....we should see a trailer by the end of this month from my friends have said in New York.

If you take a read of the latest [b]'plot leak'[/b], some pretty perverse activities take place!

any plot "leak" was a fake until now ( the only leaked plot that have a bit of credibility is the first one , that was posted directly in the IMBD synopsis page ) .... the perverse things , as Ridley said , as surely about genetic play , perversion dont mean anything sexual ... that is a sexual perversion in fact . I think the SJs do perverse genetic play withou any kind of morals and without being GODS ( they just play with what exist already ) ...if there is a subtle reference to something kinky is just to make an evil grin on our faces ...dont expect anything explicit or trash .

[b]Nostalgica...[/b], I´d like to have the jockey run a bar in the reception area of a seventies style convention hall. H.R. Giger, even if you never read this, mind we´ve all (@ least me) a crush on the seventies (affluence)... So maybe you can change the script and equip the jockey w. some of those large porno-glasses and, not at least, embellish some scenes wit `easy listening´.

Now I want to see the space jockey in all sorts of scenarios. On the cover of cigar aficionado. In an I'm a mac, he's a PC and that's a Space Jockey commercial. The Space Jockey E true hollywood story. Dateline NBC's To Catch a Space Jockey. On the cover of Maxim. As a pundit on Fox news. As an advocate against child hood obesity.

Hey guys, I just found [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xY22ZePwcvI]this[/url] at youtube. There are several of the shots we are already familiar with and there are several others that I know I haven't seen. 0:36 There seems to be green goo coming out of a canister 1:20 There seems to be an arm or something sticking out from the right and at 2:10 and at there seems to be a weird looking hand (might be gloved) touching something that looks jockiesh. Anyone else seen these before? Rick

of course we saw them , and not less than 5 times each day :) there are ALOT of shoots regarding medical tables or cryogenic stasis or something like that ... but can also be that this part was the most "ready" for some footage to be exposed . I will not surprised also if the giant head statue with the eggs around is on earth
