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?

Ridley Scott and the tech/effects crew were in a bad spot, they couldn't create that effect, they needed some equipment they did not have to do it,
#1- What did they need?
#2- Where did they get it?
#3- Who gave it to them?

MemberOvomorph12/6/2011Is the clue you are reffering to a message/image that was on or near a control panel? I remember reading something like that in an early Alien script.

Engineer Prototype - Model GAJ84
MemberOvomorph12/6/2011My guess is a Theramin. Its pretty much a stab in the dark so I dont have a clue where they got it from or who gave it to them. The reason why I think its a Theramin is beacuse when Cain breaks the mist, it makes a kinda wierd sound.

Engineer Prototype - Model GAJ84
MemberOvomorph12/6/2011Or some kind of night club laser? Were they even around in the late 70's?

Spartacus
MemberOvomorph12/6/2011What do you mean by "Theramin", did you mean "Theremin", cause as far as I know that's a musical instrument which would mean in a way, a very obscure way, you are close.
You have 1 Part of the question correct though...But I need all three before someone beats you to them.
If not you got 1 pt at least in the bank.

Engineer Prototype - Model GAJ84
MemberOvomorph12/6/2011Yes the musical instrument. Bill Bailey uses them alot in his performances.

Spartacus
MemberOvomorph12/6/2011You are close to one of the other two answers and "laser" is in fact the thing they needed....but where did they get it and from who is the bigger picture now.
LOL

Spartacus
MemberOvomorph12/6/2011by the way that "LOL", is posted there because there is a "MAJOR WOW" clue in what I wrote just now above there.

Engineer Prototype - Model GAJ84
MemberOvomorph12/6/2011I hope this isnt cheating but I have consulted The Oracle (my brother, he is an Aliens expert) and he tells me that that a laser was needed, and Ridley Scott borrowed one from The Who's stage team or something like that.

Spartacus
MemberOvomorph12/6/2011Ok man, I am going to give you all 3 points on this just the same.
Ridlley Scott himself went to the [size=200]Sound stage right next door[/size] where the [size=200]Rock Group The Who[/size] were rehearsing for an upcoming tour, and borrowed the [size=200]Blue Laser[/size] from The Band.

* I thought it quite witty of me If I do say so myself ha ha ha, to make "The Who" in the question, be "The Who" in both the answer and in Reality!

Engineer Prototype - Model GAJ84
MemberOvomorph12/6/2011Sweet! I was almost praying it was right as my brother didnt appriciate me waking him up at half 3 in the morning!
Give me a little while to come up with my question, I've got a few ideas in mind :-)

Engineer Prototype - Model GAJ84
MemberOvomorph12/6/2011Right, I hope this is a good one, a bit of a joke but simply,
"What Car is a Xenomorph most likely to drive?"

Spartacus
MemberOvomorph12/6/2011This One...LMFAO...

Engineer Prototype - Model GAJ84
MemberOvomorph12/6/2011Nope, not that one im afraid. Although that is one sick car mod.
I think i should re-phrase the origial question,
"What make of Car is a Xenomorph most likely to drive?"

Spartacus
MemberOvomorph12/6/2011oh, wow, think I got it, an Old Rolls Royce !!!
LMAO
Wasn't that what "he&she"{Another word for Xenomorph}, LMAO, was made out of to begin with, Old Rolls Royce Parts?

Engineer Prototype - Model GAJ84
MemberOvomorph12/6/2011Point to Spartacus, The answer was indeed Rolls Royce and your reason was spot on!

Engineer Prototype - Model GAJ84
MemberOvomorph12/6/2011To easy, it was a Rottweiler. In the special edition it was something else though, not sure what it was as it just looked some generic large animal carcass to me. How the facehugger managed to impregnate a dead animal is a complete mystery.

MemberOvomorph12/7/2011Which film did Dan O'Bannon urge Ridley Scott and Walter Hill to see, to prepare them for Alien?

Engineer Prototype - Model GAJ84
MemberOvomorph12/7/2011Texas Chainsaw Massacre, I think it was to prepare them for the gorey scenes.
