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?

Hey Guest, want to add your say?

ah I think it's just you and me snorklebottom man, hey go look at the funny thread I made this morning in the community section.

GavinDecember 21, 2011
Okay in 9 famous names link Sigourney Weaver back to herself, each name has to have a link to the name before and after it. If Sigourney is name number 1 and 11 then a clue for name 6 would be "drag".
P.S. the names must match those on my list and the first person to post them all in the correct order gets... erm... 3 points.

SpartacusDecember 26, 2011
"Snorky", I want to try to answer this 'cause it seems like an awesome question but I am not sure If I understand it correctly, can you write it as if your writing the new book..."Prometheus Trivia For Dummies Like Spartacus".
Tx Mun.

SpartacusDecember 27, 2011
Again, Snorky, would you be so kind AS TO RE WRITE this question as it , for me, is completely illegible in it's current format and I wish to give it a try... I just cannot figure out any of it for the life of me. Tx in adavnce.

GavinDecember 27, 2011
Don't worry Sparky, I will change the question. That question was way too specific in regards to its answer. So here is my replacement question...
Which director links the Alien and Predator franchises, and how?

SpartacusDecember 27, 2011
Thanks Snorklebottom for the update!!!
The answer has to be James Cameron
He directed Aliens, we all know that, but his contribution to the PREDATOR franchise is so small yet so HUGE in the scheme of things. ON a flight to Japan with Stan Winston who had been hired to do DESIGN the original predator...Cameron told him "I always wanted to see something with mandibles", the rest is history, Stan Winston put them in, and today, that creature would not be known as "The Predator" we see had not been for Cameron's suggestion to Winston.

[b]Question; For 3 Big & Quick Points.
Name the escape Ship in Alien...... and the origin of that name.... as well as the person who invented it.[/b]

SpartacusDecember 27, 2011
The Narcissus is correct for 1 point.
What I want for parts 2 and 3 is who thought of the idea of using that name for the escape ship in "Alien" and where did she/he get it from ?

TattooedkoiDecember 27, 2011
The name of the shuttle comes from Joseph Conrad's "The Nigger of the Narcissus". From what I can tell it was a collaboration between O'Bannon, Foss and Cobb to come up with the name.

SpartacusDecember 27, 2011
Ok, Snorky got the first Point, and Tattooedkoi just got the 2nd point on the questions 3rd part, but the 2nd part of it all remains unanswered, who was it that said "we're using that name in the film"?...and there is still a point up for grabs along with The Con.

SpringsteadDecember 27, 2011
all i want to know is where the alien came from hopefully this film answers that.


SpartacusDecember 30, 2011
I think the person in question did in fact get a producers credit among others...Snorky...?...anyone...?...The Con is up for grabs...

SpartacusJanuary 05, 2012
Bonus Question: 1 Pt.
What Absolutely Incredible thing does Parker do in Alien right after taking a sip of his coffee?

SpartacusJanuary 05, 2012
Ok, I can't take it any more on this either...
the word is...
FART !!!
Parker says something to Dallas about the coffee being the only good thing on the ship than leans over and does a "one cheek sneak" only he keeps nothing secret !!!
And Ridley DELIBERATELY left that in...what a laugh he must have had with that, is still having with it I bet.
I read so many stories about Yaphet Koto causing mayhem on the set to the point that Ridley Scott had to trick him to get him to die in the film, he kept saying he was going beat the crap out of it {The Alien}. He hid in the wings to try to mess with Ridley but Ridley outsmarted him and found out where he would be hiding and had the Alien surprise attack him!!!
I Love Yaphet, I mean, man...who doesn't?
NeurionJanuary 05, 2012
@Spartacus
Hey Bud…sorry I had to go run some errands…so I couldn’t answer your trivia question. However, I just read your answer, and I am completely “flatugasted!” So I went and looked at that scene myself. You know what? I couldn’t see or hear what you’re talkin’ about. Sorry Bro…I’m just not getting that at all…after watching it…like ten times. What's up?
~Neurion

RuhaniyaJanuary 05, 2012
It's Fart cause that's what it sounded like a fart. Hu Ha uuhh Feminine Burritos?
Do you smell what I smell?
Do you smell what I smell?
A FART!
A Fart!
Lingering in the AIR
But... No one seems to...Care
Ooh No one seems to... care.
Well, that dick covered in a biomorphic tattoo didn't care. She said "It was a bit Chilli on his Willy". and I thought that was redickuless.
RUHs

SpartacusJanuary 05, 2012
OK Neurion you are in fact wrong.
In the Theatrical release about 10 minutes into the film, the breakfast scene, Parker says as Dallas gets up to go see what Mother has to say, Parker says this...
"Can I finish my coffee?", than lifts up his right leg and ass cheek and lets one go...CLEARLY LETS ONE GO !!!
Go Look again !!!
It;s 100% in there and THAT MEANS Scott did it DELIBERATELY
LMFAO !!!
I LOVE IT BRO !!!
p.s. don't feel bad like i said it took me 30 times of watching it before it dawned on me what it was I was seeing and hearing and now it is clear as a bell every time i see it and hear it. Please do as I suggested, 1st sene at breakfast as it ends...
"Can I finish my coffee?", and then he lets one rip bro, even makes "The Face" while he does it !!!

SpartacusJanuary 05, 2012
wow Neurion your kidding right?
Let me see if I can get it clipped for us somehow and I will post it for you, perhaps It is in the directors cut only and not the theatrical release
Checking right now bro !!!
I promise you it's there!!!
but if it is only in the directors cut then he DID cut it from the theatrical release and that would mean I was wrong about him deliberately leaving it in.
like I said
Checking right now!!!

SpartacusJanuary 05, 2012
I clipped the scene down to a 4 minute clip and at exactly 1 minute and 4 seconds Parker very clearly breaks wind and makes the face, I look forward to receiving your official acknowledgment.

Potty humor?…figures…[/quote]
------------------------------
Do you even know what this is about?
AND I would love to know EXACTLY what it is that "figures"?
Enlighten Me Please !!!
Incredible !

SpartacusJanuary 05, 2012
it also IMO clearly makes your "all of the sudden new name presence here" quite suspect !!!
I Wonder now because of what you posted and the fact that you and i have supposedly never spoken or met on this forum before...exactly what would turn up on an I.P. look up and a check against some of the older names here...

SpartacusJanuary 05, 2012
1st of all
I am nobody's "Laddy" and rather "prolly" OLd enough to be your "DADDY " !!!
2nd of all I can take a joke as well as the next person.
That was NO Joke !
I also wonder if you know how much work I had to do just to prove a little point to Neurion...and at that...all in good natured and honest discussion about a tough subject to actually discuss with any dignity and a scene that is so TERRIBLY MISUNDERSTOOD BY ALMOST EVERY SINGLE PERSON WHO SAW IT AND FOR 33 YEARS NOW STILL DO NOT REALIZE WHAT THEY WERE ACTUALLY SEEING AND HEARING IN THAT scene...as well as what it says about the attitude of Ridley Scott when he shot it and even more so when he consciously left it in even the theatrical release for the world to completely miss.
The Girl With The Giger Tattoo (AKA Li)January 05, 2012
@Spartacus
I wasn't refering to you personally...I was joking about general guy talk.
I apologize if I offended you. Believe me, it will not happen again.
Sorry,
Li

SpartacusJanuary 05, 2012
Look
I accept your apology and I am sorry too if my objecting to your comment causes you any grief what so ever, but lately and all of the sudden, and after giving myself over to these people and this board with all of my heart and love for this "little project" of Ridley's, I have been the victim of some really vicious and completely outlandish and inexplicable verbal attacks...and just as an example, I got home from work today came on the board and see about 15 posts in a thread stating that this film is 100% a Prequel...and not to argue other wise please...so I posted what Ridley Scott himself said about that very same subject and somewhere in there somebody says this, which I cannot believe for the life of me this was said after this person read what Ridley said...and which had absolutely nothing what so ever to do with the Marketing campaign for This film which at the time it was said had not even been discussed yet, let alone started!!!
[quote]
it's a fuckin' prequel. anyone who says otherwise has bought Fox's
transparent marketing campaign, hook-line-and sinker. just sayin'.....[/quote]
These are the kind of ILL Intended comments that while I agree may not be clearly Marked this is for you Spartacus are CLEARLY the acts of people liviing in complete denial...spreading false hoods all over this web site...and whats worse is they read the truth form the ONLY source that counts, realize I guess, that the truth hurts, and because it came from me that makes me a TARGET?
So Instead of responding, I ignore it, focus o Helping Neurion see something he may have missed entirely and which is an incredible discovery to have 33 years after seeing the film, was for me at least, and in the spirit of just having fun here and not taking this too seriously and then I see your post!!!
It just knocked the air completely out of my lungs !
I may argue things passionately and point out mistakes when I see them but I certainly have not deserved more than 9/10ths of the mean spirited things that have been hurled at me and frankly I am sick of it and made a decision to stand up for myself !!!
So, that said, I apologize too and am willing to start over and with a new understanding that we all need to be a little bit more respectable of each other, and that includes me, I am not perfect and make many mistakes as well, but in my case, I am the first to admit it whenever I discover I have. !!!

If you have a biomorphic tattoo does that mean your heart belongs to Giger? I would have said soul but it can never be a scientific fact cause it was made by a creator who is infinity very big.

The Girl With The Giger Tattoo (AKA Li)January 05, 2012
@Spartacus
I understand…and I too have been smacked around a bit online before. Guess it’s the price we pay for being passionate about interests and speaking our minds. I have been reading the posts on this site for the past few days, and you seem to be at the heart of this community, and I for one respect your creative and thoughtful insights.
Maybe next time I crack a joke…I’ll remember to include a “haha” or the like.
Keep up the good work…and keep the fires burning, they add spice to the whole subject.
Ciao,
Li

SpartacusJanuary 05, 2012
What a stand up thing of you to say and while I admit it is flattering I have to be honest, the heart of this community is "ALL OF US"...including you !!!
This can be a really terrific community at times...we've all got that passion I think or we would not be here.
It is very easy to read things in to or out of posts that are not really there but rather perceived, and I am constantly fighting a battle with my own EGO to keep it in check and not let any pre-conceived notions or thoughts cloud my good judgement!!!
Thank you for taking the time to work this out together with me in a respectable manner, I have a new found respect for you and am glad we took the time to find common ground!!!
It is sad to me that we all live so far apart from each other and I wish I could throw a big Prometheus party and fly you all down or Up in most cases I think to Montreal, or better yet, pay for us all to have that party in Hawaii or somewhere exotic like that!!!
With Prometheus Party favors, Hats and T's and Steaks On The BBQ or Veggie Burgers for the health conscious or vegetarians amongst us.
Who knows, we all get a few beverages in us and maybe we start getting along pretty good!!!
