[img]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v234/LT.HIGHTIMES/PIA06143.jpg[/img] 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?

Think 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.

weren'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?

Because 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.

i 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

because 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!

Tec-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

this 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?

nope, 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.
