New "Xeno" image in Released Trailer

MemberOvomorphJanuary 06, 20122383 Views41 RepliesOk, so I've been pondering this for some time.. You may think I'm crazy, but there is an image of a creature in the "Cargo Bay". BioMechanic had a trailer where there are a bunch of images overlaying one another. So there is something that did not seem right in the released trailer that bothered me.. So I inspected the trailer again and I saw this image. For those who see it.. well you'll see it. Others will not. I think the flame from the flame thrower is another scene, just added into the "Cargo Bay" scene... anyway.. laugh all you want. I edited the pic with more contrast so you can see it. So, here it is..

i don't see it. not laughing though.
i don't believe there is based on the posture of the person with the flamethrower... looks like a "test" shot to me.
the postures of the other 2 people in the frame also don't appear to be defensive. if the flamethrower person were trying to burn a xeno, they all wouldn't appear so casual.

davidkyleJanuary 06, 2012
sure, and outline or draw an arrow to what you are talking about.
im not trying to be a dick, just sharing my opinion from what im observing.

danraldJanuary 06, 2012
Ha Ha... ok thanks.. this has been bothering me, and I showed it to a couple of people and they were amazed. AND YES! They would not be casual with a flame being jetted out right by them.. That is why I am saying it is another scene layed on top of the guys walking around by the vechicles..

interesting. had to watch the trailer again, and am now realizing that the flame is coming from outside the frame, not from the guy/gal in the frame.
happens so fast, hard to tell. also didnt understand what you meant by layered scene, but now i do. so you think an SJ and xeno are layered into that shot?

danraldJanuary 06, 2012
They took a scene where the are burning a creature and just isolated the flame in the scene. Then they added that flame to the scene of the guys walking around in the "Cargo Bay" or whatever it is called. Just like a doctored photoshop image. But they did it with video. Then they cut the creature out of the flames so you see through it. The flames outline the creature. So I think the creature look like a space jockey eye and then a regular xeno.. a cross of the 2 to say.. but who knows, it could be something else. But it looks like a little subliminal image. Could be nothing.. lol
davidkyleJanuary 06, 2012
interesting. i must say that when I saw your first pic, the flames did appear "doctored" to me... but i'm no expert on that subject.

Hey, dudes.
I don´t know- maybe you´re right but I´d not put my
money on that stealth silhoutte...
Another thing that makes me wonder is, that it´s enough
oxygen in the atmoshere, otherwise it would not burn.
My brainteaser for you is focusing on another thing: the
spacesuits of Prometheus Crew: Why are those illuminated-
I wonder if it´s only the airlock-collars or if there are even
more elements (e.g. gloves) which glow in the dark like frogfish.
The more I think about it, the more I´m convinced this movie
turns out to be stoo.
Only bytw: The whole plot of this movie´s build up in `Deep Sapce Nine´ sort of and isolated...
If it´ll turn (in a few months) out that they deal wit some species of invisible kind, I´ll get out/ leave theatre right in that moment.
Actually, I´ll pay no attention to these harassments anymore; I`m tired not only about the plot, the artefacts (which come in a `retro glow in the dark´ fashion) but also of this whole large scaled shot just to tie it up w. the originial Gigeresque/ Alien stuff, which turn it over to be some sort of `PREQUEL´, nonetheless.

danraldJanuary 06, 2012
You are so right.. I have another image... you will not believe what you see...

danraldJanuary 06, 2012
It's a man with a helmet on.. and some sort of slug/facehugger thing on him!

The mans face is in the circle

ReeceMacoyJanuary 06, 2012
at first i thought you were on to something but when i watched the trailer for the 800th time lol there are THREE people not TWO in the cargo bay, never noticed it till right now. its hard to see but when the scene starts to end & change to the next scene, you see the flame thrower (the nozzle part i guess you would call it) held by the THIRD person, he is making his way into that shot as the scene ends. you have to look very closely b/c its hard to see. agree or disagree, but Danrald it would be interesting if they did do something like you mentioned. i could see the marketing schmucks doing something like that.

danraldJanuary 06, 2012
I analyzed what that "nozzle" looks like in detail and it does not fit into the scene. It is some weird shaped thing... But did you see the man in the Large and Large Detail images?

ReeceMacoyJanuary 06, 2012
Actually if you want to get technical theres 4 people in the shot, after yet another viewing lol the one i mentioned who is off camera, one person walking away from us, one person walking towards us, and another person about to get in one of those small vehicles to the left

ReeceMacoyJanuary 06, 2012
it looks more like an alien head to me but with stuff like this you can see what you want to see, its one of those screwed up tendencies we have lol seeing what you want to see & hearing what you want to hear. but if you look closely you can see that the "nozzle" is the precise angle of which the flame is being shot at. even the guy in front is holding the flamethrower the same exact way. im almost certain that its the 4th guy who just happens to be out of frame in the shot.

danraldJanuary 06, 2012
So true about seeing what you want to see.. The eye that I pointed out still looks like an eye.. I think I tained the image in your mind by saying it's an alien head.. lol. So there maybe multiple images in the fire.. Prometheus.. stole fire, so they put a composite of images in the "fire".. lol. But there is clearly a mans face dead center of the red circle! If you look at it a few more times.. you'll see.

ReeceMacoyJanuary 06, 2012
that is known to happen to based on you suggesting the alien head lol
but i really dont see a persons face, but what i see with the alien head is - banana head, mouth, even some of the tubing on the side of its head. but at this point i think we are seeing what we want to see. same thing happened with me when revenge of the sith was about to be released, and over analyzing every picture, every microscopic detail, etc. its what we fanboys do i guess lol

danraldJanuary 06, 2012
Ok I added a new image.. I adjusted some levels of the pic and more contrast..
Can you see him? His face is right behind the "I" or letter in the word PROMETHEUS.

I'm about to call it a night.. my new hobby has kept me enthralled

ReeceMacoyJanuary 06, 2012
sorry dude i dont see it aaaaahhhhh lol
im going to call it a night too, almost 3:30 over here aaaahhhh, have a good night


ReeceMacoyJanuary 06, 2012
WOW ok i see a face...........finally
but theres lots of things in pictures or even clouds, where you can make faces or shapes or anything with our crazy minds.

BiomechanicJanuary 06, 2012
I don't see a xeno or anything. I did always wonder about that fire and it is possible it was put in afterwards strictly to make that scene more interesting for the trailer. They seem awfully oblivious to that fire.
We really need to stop using low quality images. I think I found a site that hosts images exactly the way you upload them.. These were grabbed off of the HD iTunes trailer, enhanced and then uploaded to [url=http://picturepush.com/upa]picturepush.com[/url] You don't even have to register.

I don't see anything unusual except their casual attitude and maybe a busted windshield.
LHeureuxJanuary 06, 2012
Seriously guys? Hahahah. It's just that there is a 3rd person in the frame, out of camera, doing a test fire with his flamethrower, nothing else.

danraldJanuary 06, 2012
Bio, I see that image you have... it's tainted.. that is not the same image in the trailer..


BiomechanicJanuary 06, 2012
What on earth are you saying? I only highlighted the feet in one picture and used a sharpening tool in the other. The information has not been manipulated to falsify anything it is just your images have lots of compression artifact and are distorted. Watch the trailer in 1080 at iTunes.
In Quicktime you can step frame by frame and I suggest you do so before you accuse someone of falsifying material.

danraldJanuary 06, 2012
You know what I'm saying.. if you don't want these pictures up.. I can understand.. lol.. I'll take them down. I feel slightly unethical about posting something that is supposed to be kept a secret. Your images are tainted.. they are not the same images in the trailer...
1234567890January 06, 2012
the images Bio posted are the real images. There is nothing in the fire besides fire. The only things seen through the fire are the transport vehicle behind it and its the wheel you keep thinking is a face. Mind manipulation over something so ridiculous as this is silly. You haven't posted anything illegal or secret danrald. Everybody keeps trying to find the "alien" throughout the trailer and it has already been said over and over again that it is not in this film. stop trying to act like a big secret is going to come out of these images and just enjoy them for what they are. you guys are going to speculate yourselves into a heart attack when the film comes out and NONE of these ideas pans out.

danraldJanuary 06, 2012
Very funny MindBender... If you read the thread.. I changed my mind.. no xeno.. man with thing on his head.. just pointing out how to "enjoy the image" for what it is... right?
Would you like me to change the title of the thread?
1234567890January 06, 2012
NO, I'm just trying to make sure I (along with everybody else) keeps a cool head over this stuff. When you over-analyze every detail of everything you are not going to enjoy the final product.

danraldJanuary 06, 2012
LOL.. trust me.. I'll enjoy it... what ever it is.. I'll enjoy it! Good night Bio...

NineteenHundredJanuary 06, 2012
There is actually SIX people in that shot NOT including the SEVENTH guy shooting the flames. But, MindBender is right...it seems many people WANT there to be some sort of Xenomorph creature in this movie and you're all trying desperately to find ANY scrap of evidence from the trailer. And all this "overlaid image of flames" thing is a bit silly, no offence, it's just there is too much else in the shot to suggest otherwise. Yeah, I've said it before and I'll say it again: You are over analysing everything so much that you'll be disappointed to find that a shot like the cargo bay scene is a VERY small, insignificant scene in the final film.

GavinJanuary 06, 2012
There ARE Xenomorphs in Prometheus, I have proof, 100% proof, no lie, honest to god, you will not believe this.
I saw a blurry Xenomorph head on a slice of toast I made for breakfast.



FrantzJanuary 06, 2012
we are all prometheus .... for 5 months we are forced to see things that are not there :p
i dont know if the eagle was less painful ...

drogie21January 06, 2012
Sorry the two images that were posted - The flamethrower? Were seeing a Xeno in this scene??? Okay we were seeing them in the bad copy of the Teaser Trailer and now this??? Am sorry man but you really really are dying to see a Xeno aren't you???

db73January 06, 2012
Ridley Scott has said that the Xeno is 'worn out as a shape' and also seemed pretty appalled that you can see them walking around Disneyland! A good thing too. Because It's been done to death & then done some more ..... and then some more again!
The Alien/Xeno isn't scary anymore. Even when it's leaping out of the darkness to chomp the brains out of some poor unsuspecting sod it's about as thrilling as a fart! I'd be extremely dissappointed if we see the original alien/xeno in Prometheus for this reason.

Mekja-TekJanuary 06, 2012
Sorry folks, as a avid fire bug what is seen is flames being discharged from a device out of scene coming from the right. Though the overlapping cuts create illusions, I don't think that's what was intended for that shot.
I'm more interested in the other trailer that has the overlay that says WILD CARD. Does anyone have a link to that version? Sorry if this has been asked a million time before me, but I just saw glimpse due to Snorkelbottom's contribution to the GIF tentacle dispute.

ReeceMacoyJanuary 06, 2012
mekja-tek
YES!!! i thought i was alone with the idea about where the flame was coming from lol. on the first page i wrote that right when that scene starts to end & blend into the next scene, we see the nozzle from the flamethrower come into focus, which is the fourth person in that scene, hes just off camera. the nozzle is at the precise angle that flame is being launched from. am glad someone else saw it.
artyohJanuary 06, 2012
The people in that clip are just going about their business. None of them look like they're reacting to any [i]serious[/i] percieved threat. If there's a creature just out of frame in that clip, I think it's probably very small and unthreatening. * wink, wink, nudge, nudge*
