Creepy theory: derelict is egg factory and chair is surgery table

Hi guys, I had this idea, which I would like to mention to you. It is again highly speculative but IMO very consistent with the Alien story, Prometheus trailer, RS’s comments, etc. Disclaimer: it is VERY CREEPY. All comments will be appreciated. Premises: 1 - Other posts mentioned a link to a very interesting article that presents Giger’s representation of the Alien life cycle, which is actually depicted very literally - in it, the egg seems to originate from a kind of blend of the derelict and a female woman’s belly. This is also connected to the egyptian god Nut, who is supposed to represent resurrection and rebirth. 2- Other posts also addressed the high probability that there’s some kind of symbiotic relationship between the ship and its pilot, turning it into a biomechanical entity. 3 - An additional point that I cannot shake off is how in the greek myth Prometheus is condemned to endure a horrible daily punishment for his sins – which actually takes place on his belly. Then… WHAT IF (i) the derelict is actually not only a ship but also an egg factory and (ii) the chair is actually a surgery table... Let’s say that the Engineers (i) fill up the cargo bay with ampules containing a bioformer and (ii) fuse a female specimen of a host species to the seat (in the case that we know best, a SJ). Every single day, the huge “telescope-like” machine in front of the chair is used to impregnate the host’s womb with one ampule’s bioformer, to later remove it (the impregnated womb becoming the egg!) and to place the egg where the original ampule was. This would result in a new species that could become a bioweapon army or anything else. The biomechanical trait of the derelict-host pair allows the host to be regenerated everyday and be ready for the next impregnation. Multiplied by thousands of days, this daily torture would justify the presence of a huge number of eggs inside the cargo bay when the derelict was found. Note that this also justifies why the chair can rotate downwards toward the cargo bay (easy access ampule-host and/or host–new egg location). I speculated before that Shaw might be abducted during the movie (after being caught in the sandstorm). It would make sense for this to happen so that she is tested by the Engineers for the host’s role in a new ship similar to the SJ’s derelict (no clue how and why she escapes). This would justify some of the creepy images that we see of Shaw in the trailer. It is also consistent with the premises previously mentioned and justifies the origin of the eggs. What do you think? Makes sense? Too far-fetched?

Snorky is just a bit frustrated. I can understand it with the same theories over and over again. He just needs to be patient and seperate the wheat from the chaff and look for those gems in the ruff when they do come along. Yo Snorks how goes your biofomer I'll sell you some for 5 xenos, and a rapace :P

Previous Post keeps disappearing after editing. SO I copied and pasted here. IGI, I'm not writing on his behalf, and he's far from it. I've read his other posts and the comments he's made and made an observation that he is frustrated, and understand why. I even went and teased him about bioformer, but you wouldn't know that without reading the other posts he's made. So take a deep breath, count to 5 and relax. Not that it matters but I think I'm like 31st person to register on this website for talking about Prometheus. I'm one of the more level headed people on here, ask anyone that knows me. So talk away its the forums, I'm not holding your hands away from the keyboard keeping you from expressing what you want. So have at it. Regards, Rick

Next you'll be mentioning terraforming or the creation of the Xenomorph/Alien (sigh - yes Sparky this means you). Prometheus is about mankinds origins and beliefs and terrifying revelations they uncover when they go looking for their creators. There is no bioformer, there is no terraforming (which was a Cameron idea btw, not Ridleys) and there is no Xenomorph/Alien. LOOK MAN GROW UP AND STOP DOING THIS I DID NOT PARTICIPATE IN THIS THREAD IN ANY WAY I HAVE DONE NOTHING BUT TREAT YOU LIKE GOLD SUCK IT UP AND LET IT GO AND DRAGGING ME INTO THIS CHILDISH GAME OF YOURS IS NOT THE RIGHT THING TO DO AT ALL ONE OTHER THING TERRAFORMING IMO IS A MAJOR MAJOR PART OF THIS ALL AND IF YOU CANNOT SEE HOW THIS MIGHT BE THE CASE RIGHT NOW IT'S YOUR PROBLEM AND NO ONE ELSE'S AND ON THE 1 IN 1 GAZILLION CHANCE THAT TERRA FORMING HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THIS FILM I WILL BE FIRST PERSON TO COME IN HEAR AND ADMIT THAT I WAS OFF BASE, UNTIL THEN, CONSIDER THIS I STILL SUPPORTED YOU IN ALL OF your threads WITH AN OPEN HEART AND MIND!!! AND I AM STILL WILLING TO. YOU JUST NEED TO TAKE A BREAK AND THINK THIS ALL THROUGH BECAUSE MAKING A POST TO PERSONALLY INSULT PEOPLE, ANYONE ON THIS FORUM, IS NOT THE RIGHT THING TO DO. THAT'S NOT ADHEARING TO A CODE THAT'S BREAKING THE CODE OF ETHICAL BEHAVIOUR I AM TALKING ABOUT. IF YOU DON'T AGREE WITH SOMEONE'S OPINIONS SAY SO IN A POLITE WAY AND MOVE ON, NO NEED TO START A WAR !!! AND THE MOST DISGUSTING PART OF THIS IS THIS... YOU POST A PIC THAT CLEARLY SHOWS A SLIMEY WATER CREATURE AND SOLICITE OPINIONS IN IT DIRECTLY BY STATING YOU ARE SOLICITING OPINIONS ON IT I GIVE YOU MY IMPRESSION IN THE SPIRIT YOU SAY YOU INTENDED AND THEN YOU DO THIS??????????? MAN, YOU GOT ISSUES RIGHT NOW DUDE!!!

Sparky, Listen man. It was not meant as an attack or an insult. I was just highlighting the fact that in the past few days you have become obsessed with the belief that you have 100% nailed down exactly what will and won't happen in Prometheus, all I'm trying to do is be a friend and open your mind to other possibilities. I guarantee the majority of members here are like me and you, in that they are avid watchers of two and three disc special edition features. Thus they, as I and should you know that nothing is 100% certain to be in a movie, be it a scene, a theme or an idea, until the final cut has been made in the editing room. I know the ideas you rally behind so religiously have been mentioned, as have others, but for anyone to ascertain that 6 months before release date they have the film 100% sussed is... well its impossible. I think I said this to you a while back when you and BM had a disagreement, so I'll say it again - relax, its just a forum, its just words, try not to take everything so to heart. And to add to that, open your mind and relax your position, please. Remember, Prides comes before a fall. P.S. Thanks for everyones comments, I think? lol.

I'll be honest here. I think Spart has a lot to offer in conversation but his behavior here would have gotten him banned/barred from most other forums. Not saying I agree with that but I think he needs a break. It is tiresome to see post after post of him stating his facts in argumentation and then somebody plainly proves their side and then have him act like it was either what he was saying all along....or be all apologetic about it when he should have just left well enough alone. This a forum about a movie, not politics or religion emotions shouldn't be that high. The man has stated he is 51 years old but his behavior here says otherwise. So kudos Snork for being the second person to call him out on this.
