MemberOvomorph12/26/2011Two images to think ...
A mutant/bald guy ( halloway ? ) kept at gunpoint by a woman ( Imora ? ) and probably shaw behind ....the company did send some mercenaries to capture the two "infected" ?...the guys shooting in front of them are not part of the main cast ..so they can be mercenaries and dickie "Imora" can be the Company spy ? the betrayer ?

In the "red lasers" scene there is a guy in the backgroun kneeling to inspect something ...what lie on the floor ? and he seems to have a Mohawk haircut and red hairs ...very similar to the second "mutant"

MemberOvomorph12/26/2011There was a movie that took place on a boat, in early 2001 I think, was it not called "Ghost Ship"? or something like that that had a great cast, and I remember it shared some of the qualities of the original ALIEN film , but the one that was most interesting if memory serves was that there was a moment when we realize that the crew has split into two groups, the "good guys" crew, and the "bad guys" crew...so you had two groups of people but but with very different agendas going on the same vessel at the same time, while both crews were facing a much more serious impending problem, whatever it was that was happening on the ship to them all. To the point of course that the 2 groups begin to blame and turn on each other. It seems like a classic writing/plot development technique that was invented by Ridley Scott to me. And I bet that this whats going on somewhere in the film, crew members with very conflicting agendas turning on each other. For some reason I keep thinking of the "Professor" character on Land of the Lost who's lying "ka-nieving" and own agenda got them all stranded {The Robinson family} in space to begin with.

MemberOvomorph12/26/2011not sure but could be, but the idea was the same, crew members trying to kill each other.

Veteran MemberMemberOvomorph12/26/2011Hey guys,
You know…after looking at this picture for a few seconds, I think the action may different than the way it looks at first glance.
The female character “allegedly” holding the weapon/pistol is in the background, while her would-be “mutant” prisoner is in the foreground. However, the illusion is that her lower arm, hand, gun…are closer to the camera than the man’s left arm.
After a closer look, I think that the dark part of the image that appears to be a gun in the woman’s hand, is actually just the man’s own gloved hand…raised in front of his body similar to his right hand (in an almost C-3PO the droid pose).
Whatta ya think folks?

MemberOvomorph12/26/2011i think neurion IS very right ...anyway there is also some sort of wire falling down and the three seems a bit "disinterested " or "sick" ... i mean while the two in front fight and appear to be very decise the three in the background look very passive

I agree. And what's on his head is the standard head gear they're all wearing inside their space helmets.

MemberOvomorph12/26/2011yeah i also think it is his hand....and they leading him out like an injured old grandpa...so they about to take him to some sickbay on the prometheus....just a thought?

MemberOvomorph12/26/2011i think that they are not fighting against other humans , surely not against other armed humans ...i smell aliens of some kind here . In a fight against other humans you cant stay safe behind someone else .

MemberTrilobite12/26/2011This guy also seems to be present in this scene, in the wheelchair...

In the image already posted it looks as though Imora and Shaw are helping this frail character, as the two mercenaries in front seem to be protecting him.
As for the mohawk guy I think this maybe just a trick of the light, catching his "hood".

MemberOvomorph12/26/2011i was gonna say, where's the gun? it's obviously the guy's hand.

MemberOvomorph12/26/2011I'm always puzzled by the shot of that tall fellow in the wheel chair. I mean, did he become injured during the mission and then need the chair? And they had one handy on the ship? Or is he a member of the crew that was disabled prior to the mission and always used a chair but has some kind of expertise that was necessary? If so, is that really him walking in the other shot?
Some are theorizing that he is a human in stasis they find on the planet who is recovering slowly--hence he initially requires the wheelchair but after time he regains his strength and can walk.
