Prometheus Movie Trivia Game!

Lets see if anyone can get it while I have my fish and chips lol

I guessed you were a fellow Brit due to your evil sense of humour lol The fish and chips swayed it for me lmao

the new born says mummy just after ripping the queen alien head off

Sparky has been pipped to post by newcomer Jamieboy. Just after ripping of the Queen Aliens head and before Gediman speaks the Newborn turns to Ripley and calls her "mommy".

Sparki said that earlier

@ Thadus12 - Yes he did, but he got the scene wrong, then changed his word before getting the scene right. He was so achingly close it was nailbiting.

Man is this editor a problem are you sure?, here is what I posted before he made his post.... "It keeps erasing my posts when I make a change to them. As the Newborn turns away form it's True Birth Mother which it has just killed it turns towards Ripley and in a high pitched almost begging or pleading like tone it says what sounds like one word.... "Riiiiiiiiipleeeeeeeeeey" or "Mooomeeeee" it is very hard to tell...but it doies sound like the first one. I could be way off but it would be easy to see why such a thing would be cut form future releases of the script/film." also the question was what does it say to Ripley ?

@ Sparky - When you first posted the scene the post ended after - one word... yet now it does not, is this genuine? I hope you are not cheating... be honest now. BTW, turns out Jamieboy is in fact my friend, no wonder he nailed it straight off. Personally I think a point each to Jamieboy and Sparky.

i'll vouch for the editor issue, happened to me a few times today, much frustration as i lost 15 mins of typed rant

@ Thadus12 - Always wondered what Diedrie looked like without makeup

Ha ha she's a real monster,forget about aliens!

no worries man, we're just having fun and YES I would never ever lie about something so trivial but it really isn't that important you go ahead and give the point to your friend and maybe he'll stick around, heck give him 2. I am just happy I learned something new about the franchise.

Lol, there is a similar occurrence in Event Horizon. An expositional shot showing the ship hovering over hell, but yet again it doesn't appear on the 2 disc special edition DVD. Go figure. You Sparky now have the con, Jamieboy can't think of a question, and you was there first. Make it a gone one.

[img]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v234/LT.HIGHTIMES/1979_alien_001.jpg[/img] What did Sigourney Weaver Claim was her favorite thing about being on the set during the filming of Alien.

that she got to use the flamethrower

& Make it for a whopping 3 points.

close already!

let me know when/if you guys need a hint.

being last person standing?

Or that the set was fully functional in terms of layout, wasn't like being on a set

Sorry Tech-B but No sir. Flame throwers is a pretty good clue in and of itself. She said she absolutely loved being on that set because of it.

Ok here's a Major Hint... It involves Sigourney Weavers Nose.

Loved the smell of it? Guessing now as i'm away from my quadrilogy and legacy boxsets. I knew i should have watched them at least once a month..

Correct!! Sigourney Weaver's favorite thing was the Smell from the discharged weapons on the set. TEC-B has the Con !!!

Right, these are off the top of my head, as i say.. not near any source of Alien knowledge just now.. 5 questions, say one point each because they're not too hard. to get the con you have to get all 5 1. What was the opening credits of Alien unique for at the time 2. How did Ridley get jonesy to hiss and spit before the Alien killed Brett 3. What did Harry Dean Stanton thank Ridey for during that Scene 4. What was done to the set towards the end of the film by Scott bearing in mind it was filmed chronologically. 5. (EASY, just to make it up to 5) how was the famous deck melting in medbay created, with what substances? If you don't hear from me for the next 10 hours or so don't worry, it's 1am here and i'm off to bed, but shall check back first thing in the am

I think i have the 1st and 2nd answers, 1- it was the first title to be revealed bit by bit. and 2 - They used a dog behind a screen, removing it at the right time to make the cat hiss.

I can tell you one is right and one is not right, although your guess does kind of relate to the answer

which one is right?

the dog was a german shepperd and that one is correct. The opening including the credits contained no dialogue for 6 minutes and I believe this is a record.

Wouldn't 2001 have already beaten that?

wow that's funny, I went to the premier in NYC of that film, and I did not even think about that, I think you might just be correct, but other than that film, Alien's opening was the only SCI-FI one I have seen that went on that long with nothing spoken. In Brina Depalmas "Dressed To Kill" for instance which is not SCI-FI but rather Horror /Drama there was an 8 minutes scene in the NYC Museum of Art with no dialogue which is a remarkable scene. There is even a camera Pan at the end of it and if you stop it in the middle you can see who the murderer is. If you watch it right through it is hardly noticeable

yep the answer to question 2 is right , so a point to EP. er.. tell you what, it would be unfair to say whoever gets all 5 right gets the con because diff people will get diff answers right at diff times, so whoever gets most answers right gets the con? everyone cool with that? And no, question 1's answer is not correct, as i said, EP was on the right track, spartacus, you veared off mate

We'll say question one is active so if a hint is needed please ask. No hints for 3, 4 and 5 yet as someone needs to have a try first. Saying that, as i say, EP was def on the right track.

1. All the actors/ production crew are named before we see the fully titled 'ALIEN' 2. German Shepherd dog behind a glass screen 3. His close up ,just before he's killed 4.? 5.Polystyrene and nail polish remover

that's one point for thadus for question 3, EP has a point for question 2. Question 1 is still up for grabs and EP has been the closest so far. Question 5 is nearly there, looking for the specific chemical name. as stated by Scott, it wasn't nail polish remover. 1. Still up for grabs 2. 1 point to EP 3. 1 point to Thadus 4. I'll clarify, the set changed toward the end of the film because of something ridley scott did, what did he do? 5. Looking for the second chemical compound, Thadus got polystyrene so will give him a half point.

Chemical name is 'ACETONE'

Nope, according to scott on the 1st edition alien dvd commentary (pre quadrilogy) it wasn't acetone, i would have given you nail polish remover if it was.

Is the answer 'GASOLINE'?

Good Morning Fellas, With regard to question 1 Sometimes less is far, far more, as is the case with "Alien"'s opening, designed by Richard Greenberg. Over a shot of infinitely dark space, Jerry Goldstein’s haunting score comes in slowly, full of strange clanking noises and eerily hollow tones. The camera pans right over an eclipsing planet as main credits appear in the center of the screen and, more crucially still, strange linear shapes at the top of the screen begin to change in telling ways. The effect is to immediately concentrate attention on the frame, to demand engagement for the surprises that lurk in the darkness, and before long, those geometric lines begin to take on a form -- the film’s title. This reveal proves as disquietingly deliberate and menacing as the camera’s measured movement, and it exhibits, in as few gestures as possible, a slow, sinister sense of mutation that carries through to the film’s human-alien chest-bursting apex.
