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

The bit with someone looking like an extra for a Daft Punk video floating about with Ridley directing to the left?


Mr.JDecember 19, 2011
I 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...

Approx 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.JDecember 19, 2011
I 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...

SpartacusDecember 19, 2011
makes 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 !!!

I agree !

Mr.JDecember 19, 2011
I 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 !

When 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.

SpartacusDecember 19, 2011
I 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 !!!

Whatever 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.

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