On ALIEN and PROMETHEUS Fashion: Sleek and Sexy vs. Traditional and Cumbersome S

The space/environment suits in the released PROMETHEUS photos appear to be much more sleek and sexy, in comparison to the more traditional and cumbersome suits worn in the original ALIEN. Personally, I’m a big fan of the original Jean Giraud “Moebius” designs used in ALIEN. And, I do like the suit designs for this new film. My question is: Do the PROMETHEUS suit designs fit in to the ALIEN universe correctly? Since this new story is supposed to take place 30 years before the events of the original…why would the suits be more modern, formfitting, and ergonomically sound? They basically look like spaced-out wetsuits…which is cool…except that they seem to be an anachronism…in regard to the “ALIEN” universe. The suits in the original film looked similar to stuff used in the Apollo Missions…basically old-school deep sea diving gear with a sci-fi twist. Maybe the ‘Nostromo’ and its crew of “Space Truckers” just had old “hand me down” equipment...it's possible... Maybe I’m being a little nitpicky…but what do you guys think?

yes probably are not real "space"suits but more "exploration" suits ..there are anyway some stils in which they are with helmets on ( and the helmets are quite original regarding the shape ) so we can also assume the in the cave there is oxygen or the cave is on earth ( first part of the movie )

The mask's can be CGI placed in post if that be what it is or the lace they are on has O2 but I doubt it.... These guys are getting the top notch made suits since the company flipped the bill for the ship and the exploration project....of course, we know the crew is expendable as usual.

FRANTZ WROTE> "They said is a fake , great photoshop work but seems is confirmed fake ...also the pictures of the noomi like girl showed by spartacus is got from sci fi TV documentary "It turns out the image is not from Prometheus, but from Andrew Clarke's We Are One"" 100% completely irrelevant because all i was doing was HELPING SOMEONE looking for some helmet that was the similar to what he mentioned. And after stating I could not find one I also stated CLEARLY that all I could find was one that looked like what he was talking about.... Might be a good idea to READ THREADS PROPERLY before taking rediculously unnecessary shots at people on this board for no reason at all what so ever!

Can one of you fellas give me a quick tip on how to include a photo when starting a new topic and when replying to posts. I tried to add a photo link from "Photobucket" in a new topic by adding tags, like so... [img]image[/img] in the TAGS field... But it didn't work. What am I doing wrong? Hope you can help. Thanks, ~Neurion

Sorry brother Neurion, but I only stick with the natural non fictional herbal douches that I can not name because I'm on Santas not E list. He ain't comin to my house, I got a gift waiting for him if he does and an nice cold iced T, right Sparky! Good luck with that Greek fire water. Goes good with Reindeer stakes. Oh By the way, I like your new profile pic. It kind helps redouches the confusion of the giant rock head. Before, when you look into his eyes you can't see em but now..The Eye is on. The only thing I would like to see is the starting of the Biomorphing progressing as the PDE reaches the brain: everything becomes cyrstal clear and your seeing 360* sphere and you can go anywhere but just make sure you get back before when wheres off in 15,000 googolplex8 years and don't go in any space elevators without your spacesuit or it won't be like on episode of Saul of the Mole Men.

spartacus i wasnt aiming at you ...i just said about the photo you posted ... and i had to say that those two photos are fake otherwise people will have no more an idea about what is fake and what is real .. There was nothing against you ...i had to make a statement becuse fake things , fake photos , fake synopsis , personal ideas spread like fire and go often totally out of control and are assumed as real ... one classic example is a dumb trailer of prometheus that was made on youtube and have millions of views ... and thousands of people thinks is the real thing ( if you remember i had a fight with a guy that went here claiming it was a true trailer ) shake hands ... -.-

I understand Frantz and I am sorry too, i should have done that way better, chosen a different way to express what I was thinking, I apologize and in my own defense wasn't feeling very much love from you lately so I guess I had that in the back of my mind and let it influence my thinking and writting. I also want to add that I severely shocked by your reply and did not think that was in line with your character to do that...the reply you just posted I mean, I have much respect for people who are quick to deflate personal confrontations in such a respectable manner, that was very Mature and wise of you and I have a new found respect for you for doing it. I really wish I could be there with you when you see Prometheus before all of the rest of us do...I am just so envious and know that you care as much about this thing as me or anyone else on this planet, maybe even more, and I respect that to, very very much, and truly would just adore to see the expressions on your face when you are watching this thing on behalf of all of us!!! again My apologies too man...I guess I was being a bit childish and should just have the strength of my own convictions to say nothing at all and let things ride. In the end a persons true intentions always come to light, It was not necessary in retrospect for me to say anything at all...my intentions were simply to help the guy find his picture. I should have just been confident enough in that it was an honorable task I took upon myself to do and stood on it without feeling the need say even a word about it. In other words it's all good now 'cause learned something valuable from it!!!
