MemberOvomorph12/19/2011No..I get the same vibe as well when I gaze upon it too...just not deep suit..lol

Engineer Prototype - Model GAJ84
MemberOvomorph12/19/2011The bit with someone looking like an extra for a Daft Punk video floating about with Ridley directing to the left?

Mr.J
MemberOvomorph12/19/2011I am betting the dude..the black dude that is wrecks the ship into something, thus something heroic to save them....they eject in a large EEV..like we see in some of the shots where it looks like a box on the ground with a door...

MemberOvomorph12/19/2011Approx 15-16 seconds in. When I first watched it I thought it was someone getting thrown but on closer inspection they do appear to be levitating! Very intersting.

Mr.J
MemberOvomorph12/19/2011I wonder with the scene where Vickers and a Shaw are running to avoid the crashing jockey ship will be the very planet the Notstromo comes too...

Spartacus
MemberOvomorph12/19/2011makes sense perfect sense actually now that I think harder and longer about it,
If some species man or other can use a Big Giant head to "BioMechanically" power a space ship then "Levitation" has to be like a cheap party trick for them...LMAO !!!

What Kinda Odds are you getting?

I agree !

Mr.J
MemberOvomorph12/19/2011I am willing to say that the ship, the Prometheus will be used as a missile to crash into something or to be like Notstromo, the whole crew is infected and Rapace and Vicker's escape as the Capt squanders the ship....

I am so struck in the face by the simplicity and perfection of that statement!!!
The First part of It I mean.
Hope you are right !

MemberOvomorph12/19/2011When those two are running from a crashing ship, I think one of those is Kate Dickie. U can see her face when freezing the image on a right spot.

Spartacus
MemberOvomorph12/19/2011I tired freezing it when the girl gets whipped off the screen to the right at the end but I could not make out any face hugger like creature only lots and lots of debris. Maybe that debris is comprised of thousands of tiny miniature Face Huggers !!!

MemberOvomorph12/19/2011I couldn't help but notice the same thing. I was like huh? lol. It looked cool though.

MemberOvomorph12/19/2011Whatever that large object is, it doesn't make sense that it would be under power. It's moving too slowly for that, relative to the motion of the characters on the ground, unless they're taking[i] considerable[/i] artistic license.

MemberTrilobite12/20/2011I think he's taking about the crashing derelict - which is probably being shown in slow motion, as is the trend for such things...

MemberOvomorph12/20/2011The scenes of people flying about are most likely 2 things.
1 - the planet they land on has a) low gravity b) high winds
2 - the burned man being levitated in front of the green screen is most likely someone being picked up or grabbed by something (with the thing picking him up to be added in post)

artyoh
MemberOvomorph12/20/2011Yeah, I was talking about what people keep referring to, as the "derelict." If it was under power, it should be moving [i]much[/i] more quickly, relative to the human figures in space-suits trying to get out of its' way. If it's simply falling from a holding/docking cradle due to the effects of ( lower?) gravity, what we see in that clip might make sense, but not if it's had time to build up any ( ramming? ) speed from some distance in the atmosphere or beyond.

Gavin
MemberTrilobite12/20/2011@ artyoh - No offense, but this whole point you have raised is nitpicking, especially when no-one outside the films crew knows the details of why it is "seemingly" moving slowly. There could be a whole bunch of reasons for this, that we will not find out about for six months.

artyoh
MemberOvomorph12/20/2011I was responding to folks who said they think it's the "derelict" or the "prometheus" being deliberately crashed into lv426. We're actually in agreement. No one really knows for sure [i]what[/i] it is, why it's falling/moving, or if it's under any kind of control. All we have is speculation.
