Prometheus Movie Trivia Game!

You can't make a Xeno omlette without breaking a few facehugger eggs.

how many face hugger eggs did they break on set? at a guess 2?

"Tweleeeve" was my best guess!

You are very close Spartacus. Here's another clue, 130 eggs were made for the set of the derelict.

10

Eleven Eleven x 12 = 132

Snorlebottom You got it right! & I just relaised why/how!!! The question was how many bakers dozens does it take to make a Xeno Omlette There were 130 Eggs in that hive. a bakers down is 13 10 x 13 =130 The answer was/is 10, you are 100% correct and I say this with confidence. "EP", is not around right now so go ahead and ask another question, with a picture if you can to jazz it up a bit for fun...if it turns out I am wrong I will subtract 5 points from my own total, and we'll return control to "EP" at that time but I can pretty much assure you that you got it dead bang on the money so let's get this party started again !!!

Okay, the picture will be posted with the answer as proof of point... In James Cameron's Aliens there is a discrepency that foreshadows one of the movies seen later in the franchise. What is it?

Alien Queens egg sack

Spot on Spartacus! Snorklebottom has the con!

@ Thadus12 - Nope @EP - thanks man.

wow awesome question... The discrepancy is -> Ripley's maternity leave takes place only 2 years prior to Alien. According to Aliens, her daughter was approaching 11 years old at the time of her arrival post-Nostromo. Weaver was 29 when cast in Alien, and Ripley brought aboard the Nostromo at the age of 28. Her child, if 10, would have been born when Ripley was 18/19, around the time Ripley attends college/university, and not a couple years before Alien. The only way to resolve this error is to assume that her child's birth is off-record, with maternity leave being taken to spend time with her daughter between missions. This could equally explain the successful lawsuit against Weyland Yutani, considering that Ripley was a single parent, continously absent due to work. It also further explains the need for Ripley to promise her attendance at her daughter's birthday. In James Cameron's initial treatment of Aliens, Ripley's daughter still lives, albeit elderly and bitter at Ripley's 'abandonment' of her. The two are never reconciled.

interesting sparky, but wrong.

Ok I got it now I think, It has been brought to all of our attention that it is believed that when a face hugger attaches it self to a being and gestates, it will come off and then die after it was done doing its thing only once. This was established in both Alien & Aliens. Well in the case of alien 3, the face hugger attached itself to ripley, did its thing, and then attached itself to the dog. It gestated twice. How's that answer?

nope, there were two eggs in alien 3. sorry sparky.

Its gotta be something to do with the queen?

maybe, maybe not?

Is it something to do with Ripley was supposed to have Hicks' baby?

nope, afraid not

is it gateway station that surrounds the earth? its not in alien res

nope again.

what du mean by 'discrepancy'?

lol, a mistake, an error!

Ok what I think you want is this... In Aliens, Ripley Discovers there is a Queen Laying Eggs. In Alien Resurrection there is No Egg Laying, The Creature is now giving birth, like a Human. Ripley has become the creatures Grand Mother!

lol sparky, nope.

the only thing i can think of is the alien embryo blocks the scanner,but in alien 3 we get an embryo close up. of course the former happens in Alien and is therefore the wrong answer,even tho a discrepancy

good point thad, but nope.

ok lets think about this...what happens in Aliens that doesnt happen in Alien the queen gateway station atmos processors alien behavior

rreaching thad, you're reaching lol

Lmao you do like your tricksy questions Snork lol

Thad12, I don't think that was a discrepancy. I think the embryos show up on scanners just fine. Ash was lying and hiding the embryo in Alien because if he showed the crew what was growing on they would have not treated him like he was fine when he finally came out of the coma. They may have wanted to strictly quarantined him or even try to kill the yet unborn chestburster or Cain himself.

Something to do with Newt & Hicks' corpses?

i do thad, biomechanic, do you fancy a stab at this lol

@EP - nope

I'll think about it but I am not too hip on the James Cameron Aliens or the later ones.

chicken lol

Yeah fair point Bio,he was programmed to protect it after all

Haha trying to goat me into the game?

@ Biomechanic, yeah, whats up are you yellow (whoops wrong film series) lol.

there was something about ripleys daughters age i used to wonder about but can't remember it now.. but at the time it was glaringly obvious to me.
