Question; can anyone tell me what the object in the picture is...?...
If so, and you do get it right, it will be "Your Turn" to ask everyone some kind of Science Fiction or related Movie question...
perhaps we can use media like pictures as well to spice it up for fun.
Anyways I am going first...what's that in the picture?

MemberOvomorph12/9/2011Think I got it
Because it was ONE Alien vs 7 regular "Shmoes" in a "contained environement" {that's the thing of it} whereas the others took place in open areas.

MemberOvomorph12/9/2011no no .its to do with the actual alien,but its not its design or colour

MemberTrilobite12/9/2011weren't the actors that played the aliens in Aliens and the alien in Alien all dancers, the only thing that sticks out was that BB was exceptionally skinny, that and I'm sure he was taught to move slowly to make it menacing?

MemberOvomorph12/9/2011Im almost tempted to give you the point,but why we're they less scary than Bolagi?
Tec-B
MemberOvomorph12/9/2011Because there had never been anything like at and you would have to be blind not to be scared by it?
Actually my answer was close to Snorkels, but he got in there first. Tha actor was masaai and nearly 7ft tall or something.

MemberOvomorph12/9/2011oh wait hang on, the original alien was silent and the ones in aliens were vocal
Tec-B
MemberOvomorph12/9/2011i think the aliens actors were also gymnasts (splitting hairs i know). The original actor was an art student that the casting director found in a london pub
Tec-B
MemberOvomorph12/9/2011because of his height he could portray the alien making it look as though his arms were to long to be real? his proportions were "Alien!

MemberOvomorph12/9/2011The aliens in alien we're stuntmen,but why were they less scary? height is the clue,im practically telling you lol
Thadus 12
MemberOvomorph12/9/2011Tec-B ill give you the point.
In an interview she stated that Bolagis height made the alien more realistic and more frightening as opposed to the guys in Aliens that were just 5'5'' stuntmen dressed up
tec-B has the con

MemberOvomorph12/9/2011It was like the first thing I said, "because of the way the suit fit him perfectly".

MemberTrilobite12/9/2011was too busy competing against sparky and Tec-B sneaks in like the hamburgular

MemberOvomorph12/9/2011this is a tenuous question.. in the scifi realm.. if it's not acceptable please say and i'll come up with another
The scale model builder for Alien was involved in many films, one of which he was unusually told not to "Dirty Down" the models. Which film was this?
Tec-B
MemberOvomorph12/9/2011nope, that was creature effects on Aliens, this was a british guy, think he's interviewed in quadrilogy, and is certainly interviewed on the three hour documentary on the Legacy Bonus disc for alien. He may have been the prop master.
Tec-B
MemberOvomorph12/9/2011And yes, Stan is sorely missed, thank god he got involved in Predator, you see what they had before he designed what we now know and love?
Gavin
MemberTrilobite12/9/2011Lol, Van Damme the killer beetle lmfao.
The chubby guy with the beard, can't remember his name.
Tec-B
MemberOvomorph12/9/2011that's the one i think, well as i said, he did another film where he was told not to dirty down the models. may not have been him, may have been the guy doing the building, which again may have been him, but anyway lol what film?
