Got this from another site. In the original leaked trailer there was a glimpse of a creature (this didn't appear in the official trailer). Somebody over at AvP Galaxy has made a GIF and here it is. [url=[IMG]http://i267.photobucket.com/albums/ii283/Evilqtl_2007/Misc/serpent2.gif[/IMG]]Snake[/url]

I am seeing what I think is a Xeno-ish tail. Very exciting. Thanks for the up Theusprom.

I can kinda see it, but it looks like an untextured 3d model to me - something serpentine entering black water from right to left before splashing its tail at the end. There is also a link to the original, leaked trailer found in the same thread Theusprom found this at, heres the link... [url=http://img688.imageshack.us/img688/7881/rl9.mp4]Leaked Trailer[/url] Although I can't see this serpent in this trailer I can see something coming out of something really fast, and "Shaws" belly suddenly inflating.

It doesn't look Xeno-ish at all to me more like a fish or eel.

Thanks for the GIF upload Theusprom. I was wondering about that bit from the leaked trailer with the 'slithery eel'. I noticed people are talking about the word Xeno being used BUT was it not put into some previous post about the word Xeno only used by James Cameron and NOT Ridley Scott and that nothing should by named Xeno in or for Prometheus. And the Alien only looked the way it did because it took on the characteristics of the Jockey and Kane. So whatever we see in Prometheus is what it originally looks like and not a Xeno. What do others think? Apologies if some of these questions have been touched on. There are so many disscussions about everything I get lost ha. But keep up the great imaginations guys.

I learned that the film’s setting is, in part, a planet that has been terraformed to create the perfect environment in which a particular bioweapon would prosper. We also know that Xeno's can swim. This is not what I thought this was going to be about initially. I do not think that the focus of this film is going to be Mankinds search for answers, I think that mission gets all messed up once they discover The Engineer's are Terraforming a planet in order to create the perfect Bio-Weapon, it might even be where they discover the ampules themselves. This is going to be about a war being started in order to stop the Engineers from being succesful. Just another theory. however, everything in this theory fits with that thing right there being a XenoMorph !!! IMO, this is the Weapon, the XenoMorphs, They're being "Harvested" as well by the Engineer's!!! In any case, fantastic post man, thank you. That thing is so cool!

I can't make anything out myself. I can't even find this part in the full leaked trailer link posted above. I agree that this is probably an untextered image that had not undergone any post processing yet. The SJ ship where it's toppling over looks untextered as well. I can't believe how poor the quality is. The guy who filmed it must have had a 5-6 year old cell phone. My cell phone is nothing speacial and I can record movies in 720P, hehe.

#1- I really cannot understand either the complete denial of people here or the fact that I see it CLEARLY and others are saying they cannot. I mean it is CLEARLY there to see, no offense but to anybody saying they do not see it, what are you BLIND? #2-Also, if memory serves the video WAS/HAD to be taken on some sort of hand held device, it was an insider at FOX that leaked it from a meeting in a board room at FOX's headquarters. How old the cell phone is that it was is of NO concern the video is what it is. You cannot go back now and re-shoot it with a better cell phone. #3- I am really not even sorry in the least if anyone is offended by this because like I said I cannot for the life of me watch that video and then come to terms or justify anyone else watching it and then having the balls that to me it wild take to publically declare "I cannot see it" like that. I mean seriously, you have to be either blind, have a bad computer with an even worse video card...or Your Lying !!!

Board room, meeting... 1. If memory serves Sparky the trailer was leaked by someone from AVPGalaxy.net that got a look at it, and decided a few days later (after agonizing whether or not to) to leak the trailer. 2. If you ignore the trailer and look at the image reflected you can clearly see someone wearing headphones, holding their cellphone/mobile towards a PC/laptop screen. You can even see the mouse pointer on the screen. Yes, unlike some I can see something, but what i see looks more fleshy and slithery like an eel or a fish. I DON'T see anything remotely Xenomorph like whatsoever.

I would like to recant my previous statement about seeing something Xeno-ish. On closer insepection it is just the lettering for wild card when something dark goes over it, the jagged lines looked like a Xeno tail to me. I assume the serpant people are reffering to is the white snake like looking thing, looks almost ethereal to me.

@Snorkelbottom, Nice posts! It's good to see the leaked trailer again. Looking at the belly inflating, we can see that the women seem to wear that flimsy skirt and top alot.. lol.

As with Alien and Aliens I suspect the flimsy skirt and top you refer to are cryosleep PJ's, which would hint that something happens when they think every things safe enough to go back into the cyrotubes.

Not a xeno head, it seems to whip and splash at the end.

Fair enough I am not mad just telling the truth as I see it...I have a lot of respect for you just for posting that, that's an excellent find and reveal. The other thing is this, even if you think you cannot see the head as I do, how can anyone see that video and at least tail at the end of it and deny it's a creature that swims? I just do NOt get that unless the person in question is lying or has a really shoddy PC. I mean on my PC it is clear a s a 50 foot shiny Bell !!! Lastly, I am not saying it's 100% a XENO as you know one to be, I am saying it is 100% a Xeno as the Engineers have created which is far far removed form what we are used to and once again, this Fits exactly with what we know so far or suspect we pretty much do. The Xeno we saw was not anywhere near what I suspect this one looks like...The Xeno we saw, has genes of at least 6 Human crew members or if not that at least JUST CAINS...of the Nostromo and therefore looked like a Human, Bi-pedal with Arms and hands and a head like Humans. Whatever the Bio-Weapon is that the Engineers are harvesting {it's obviously at this point ...the Xenomorph itself} on some planet {I suspect we still do not know about} and is close to the Zeta2Reticuli star system, it has it's origins and is a BIG FAT part of The Engineer's Terraforming technology. For me, after what we have learned the last few days and seeing that video again, a nd hearing Ridley in his own face say..."People don't realize how much more there is to this" I gotta say, Right now, There is NO Doubt in my mind what so ever that what that is...is an original XENOMORPH, before it has been tainted by a human gene pool.

That is assuming the xeno features in Prometheus, which I don't think it will.

i think just like the reporter uncovered 10 months ago when he spoke directly with those involved in making the film and was told "There ARE Xeno's in this, The Alien from Alien is IN this, but NOT in the way we remember it" and as NEURION suggested a few weeks ago... We will see a different Looking kind of Xeno but for just a few seconds and nar the end of the film, the original Xeno, this film is in a big big way about the Engineers creating the perfect "BioWeapon" and the Xeno IMO IS that weapon.

So cool, I think this clip is just after the shooting scene in the leaked trailer. The snakey creature jumps from something that opens; like a mouth or opening to an egg. I was wandering whether from the picture of David removing something from the Ampule whether the white scaley thing might be this snake creature???

i think it will borrow from the xeno's we know....their will be slight a resemblance IMO....but I suspect their is gonna be more than one slimy monstrosity in Prometheus....that could even be the end of a tentacle...to be fair u won't see anything unless u know what to look for....In the end it is just a certain body part of the creature ...either tail, tentacle, head, finger or whatever?...

You can see a joint of the tale and possibly a sort of fishy gill; it could very easily be an adaptation of a face hugger? As long as there are some creatures in the film I'll be happy :)

New Commercial campaign for "Mastercard". THE VALUE OF SPARTACUS POSTS IN THIS FORUM...0.99 CENTS EACH. THE VALUE OF CHARLEZE THERON COMMENTS ON XENOS BEING IN THE FILM...$1.29 EACH. THE VALUE OF H.R. GIGER RE-DESIGNING THE SPACE JOCKEY AND OTHER CREATURES AGAIN ...RIGHT AROUND 2-3 MILLION BUCKS. RIDLEY SCOTT GIVING YOU HIS PIN # PRICELESS !

Thanks Theusprom, that looks curious. That awful word 'xeno' doesn't come into the equation for me too, I'm afraid. It looks more like a true Gigeresque serpentine creature to me. I remember seeing another user avatar gleaned from the leaked trailer which showed a 'serpent' like thing actually rearing and spitting out a spike-like tongue. I really am hoping that there will be primordial stuff like this in the film. The original Alien is still beautiful. 'Xenos' are dead and redundant. We need to see the base elements which lead up to the original creatures.

"Juxt", You are the furthest thing from dumb & I wanted just to say that because I think you are incredibly intelligent!!! all of you guys man! I love you guys!!! I just want to help you keep your heads on straight so you will enjoy the film when it comes out and you are sitting there in the Theater and you realize totally that Spartacus told you what happened in it beforehand !

Plain and simple and in line completely with what Charleze Theron said ten days ago and what the makers of this film said as they related all of this to the reporter at "FILM" magazine approx. Ten Months ago on a PHONE CALL!
