MemberOvomorph01/5/2012I'm not sure why the wrong photo attached to my previous post on the helmet.
He is what I meant to show .....to me it clearly looks like a wrap-around helmet.

Is this the part you mean? It is very weird.

MemberOvomorph01/6/2012It kinda looks to me as if it would certainly encase 'somethings' head at the sides, but is not shaped to form a complete 'helmet' say. And doesn't seem to show any attached 'snorkel'-like attachment either. So we're still none the wiser about how the final 'pilot' (or 'gunner') that sits on there will look eventually.
But the radical-looking differences to the overall object and base of this structure are very striking compared to how it looks in ALIEN. I'm definately leaning to the PROMETHEUS trailer NOT showing the same 'Derelict' we're familiar with, despite those who insist it's the same but with some stylistic changes and artistic licence taken. There's just too many obvious differences in the look of the exterior and interior at this point, and this amount of 'continuity differences' would just be ridiculous.
It's ANOTHER craft say I.

MemberOvomorph01/6/2012@Zeus - This was posted up on the discussion board while back. Can't remember who it was (Was it you BIOMECHANIC???) but did a great job on getting the second or 2 clip from the trailer and enlarged it. This is a really really clear shot of what your looking at.

MemberOvomorph01/6/2012OK...even if that tall dude is the Space jockey, and they wear suits. My issue is this. You can get away from the bulkiness of the suit. I can buy that. But rematch Alien and look how long its arm is. It's like 6 feet long! That big guy doesn't look that big.

MemberOvomorph01/6/2012I'm also curious about those 'pod'-like sections with the heiroglyphs on them, which are on the base here, unlike ALIEN's version. They seem to have 'translucent' bits on top of them. Wonder if they contain anything or not?
And I don't know if I'm imagining this or not, but if you look very closely at the excellent 'gif' link in drogie21's post above...are we seeing ANOTHER figure entering under the letter 'T' in PROMETHEUS, through what looks to be a 'circular' entrance into this 'Spacejockey' area?

MemberOvomorph01/6/2012Cervantes - I'm beginning to think this is a possibility too. My only doubt is, if the other craft was different, shouldn't it be truly radically different?
Or are we looking at a slightly reshaped interior...bit like a Peugeot 205 compared to a 205 Gti ? lol

MemberOvomorph01/6/2012Too easy to make it look [i]exactly[/i] the same, for it to be the derelict from "Alien." I also don't think the SJ is wearing a "suit." I think the SJs are fully biomechanical, that one of them literally [i]merges[/i] with the chair, ( insert creepy CGI effect here ) and that he'll more closely resemble the iconic "Alien" SJ after that happens.
