2 Movies + facehugger

Do you think this could lend support to the theory that the thing David is pulling out of the urn could be some kind of proto-hugger?

I am doubt that is Ridely will make another movie after (Prometheus) which is the second prequel to Alien?

[quote]you might was to go to this place where his people come from.[/quote] Sounds very cool indeed!

Very interesting indeed! A second movie sounds great. That leads me to believe Prometheus might end in some sort of cliffhanger. Possibly Shaw and Vickers marooned on the planet after the derelict crash. I'm hoping that this will help the pacing of the movie so it doesn't feel rushed. So the end result he wants to get to is a facehugger type creature? I'm not sure what to think of this.

yes im of the opinion that what is inside the urns infect everything around ...and what was "metallic " become "biometallic" ( and that include the proto-hugger) .... but is really only my opinion . Ridley seems pretty sure he will do another movie and that link very well to Rapace's face when asked if there will be a sequel to prometheus .

Yeah Frantz, sure I read it was always planned to be two movies. This is interesting if true: [b]Mr.Beaks from AICN- PROMETHEUS (d. Ridley Scott)[/b][i][/i] [b] You've watched the teaser trailer countless times, you now know the Space Jockey appears in the film, and yet you still haven't a clue as to what Scott is up to with this sneaky reentry into the ALIEN universe. I know more than I want to, and I can assure you that any "leaked" plot summary you've read is bullshit - though I fear the studio might've jettisoned the best version of this film when they brought Damon Lindelof on to rewrite Jon Spaihts (who should not be held accountable for THE DARKEST HOUR). But even if this isn't the cerebral sci-fi classic it could've been, it's still going to be a clever resuscitation of a beloved franchise. I'll be shocked if a) PROMETHEUS doesn't live up to the hype. and b) if Scott doesn't direct the sequel (which is already in development). (June 6)[/b]

Agreed Frantz... look at Rapace's response to the question of whether there's enough in Prometheus to make it a franchise, or in other words, enough for a sequel (and with Ridley's latest comment about trying to squeeze in two [b]prequels[/b]). I think this is a fairly strong indicator we're going to get 2 prequels to Alien. at 0:55, the question is posed...

as long as they dont beat the horse untill it is ground pulp, ill be ok. just dont do a alien vs preditor vs space jokey please. and no robocop or batman included either

Trying to squeeze in two prequels would mean he is trying to pack the material for both into one space, which in this case would be one movie. This would be akin to the orginal plan for LOTR to be two instead of three movies. If the quote was "try to squeeze out two prequels" you would have better proof a second act to Prometheus.

Exactly, he states it pretty plainly. I just love how everybody takes some things so literally. Squeezing the ideas of two prequels into one film is what is clear. Not 2 Movies. Scott said originally it was planned as two films and then said he was squeezing the ideas of both of those films into one....hence the quote. Funny because when I read this, I knew somebody here was going to take it that way and go to town with this idea....... The second Prometheus film (if there is going to be one) is NOT in development yet. Nowhere, anywhere on the net, in print or in person has anything been said that this is the case. The only thing mentioned is Fox was quoted as saying they have expressed interest in pursuing a sequel if this does well.

mcy and MindBender, you may be correct that I misinterpreted Scott's quote. I'm certainly not trying to see something (or wish for something) that isn't in the plans. I just thought the comment Scott makes and Rapace's response were a "strong indicator". A concern I would have is squeezing two prequels into one movie may be difficult. Scott's quote... "What we’re trying to do is squeeze in two prequels…if you explain who he was and where he came from then you want to find out where they came from and you might was to go to this place where his people come from." Seems like a lot to put into one movie, but then again, Scott may be able to accomplish all that in 2-2.5 hrs. It's just hard not to think of this if he is trying to "squeeze in two prequels" in one movie... :-) [url=http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=10%20pounds%20of%20shit%20in%20a%205-pound%20bag]10lbs s**t in a 5lb bag[/url]

so there is someone who have read already the two scripts .. Spaihts one , more cerebral ( Alien HArvest is fan made , not from him ) and Lindelof one ,,,more for everyone maybe ? more action ? who knows.. Also it confirm that every supposed leaked plot is far away from reality

One script......Spaihts wrote the original script for Prometheus and Lindelof was brought in to revise, adjust, tighten it up and change it. One script, two writers....One movie. I find it doubtful anybody we know has actually read the script let alone some imagined one for a sequel.

You guys are missing the important part of the interview. He admits that the facehugger is the connection finally. Other than the obvious Ships and race of SJs, the main connection will be the facehugger (probably in a slightly different form). This is the aspect that readers should be happy with and clinging on to, not reading into words about "squeezing". When somebody uses that word, it almost always applies to putting as much into something as they can. Simple.

That facehugger connection was not missed, MindBender. Probably like many others on this forum, maybe you included, I've suspected that connection for some time. The combination of the leaked clip of something jumping in a very facehugger manner and what David is removing from what appears to be an urn are what led to that suspicion. You're right, now Scott admits it's a connection, so that can probably be put to rest. And I admit I appear to have misinterpreted Scott's quote on two prequels. But as for my "squeezing" comment, it's not presumptuous... merely a thought I had. I have no idea what Scott truly meant by it.

While I'm not arguing that he might have meant squeezing two prequels worth of ideas into one movie, he also could have meant squeezing two movies out of the material he has. Any any event, Den of geeks reports that Ridley said this at the san diego comic-con : [b]This film, I’ve honestly had a better time with [it] in many years. Probably because I felt secure in having a terrific script from [Damon Lindelof]. That said, I want [Lindelof] to do the second one immediately. That’s the only reason I’m buttering [him] up.[/b] So to me it sounds like he was working on getting a second script done back in July. Obviously that's not the same as having a green light, but it sounds promising.

Thanks for the reminder Jeffomorph. Again, I'm not trying to see something that isn't in the plans or argue with anyone. I'm just putting some pieces of a puzzle together and having fun with it. :-) Starting @ 4:52 [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5LeIce4lc8s]How do you interpret this statement? Does he mean Prometheus or another script altogether when he says "the next one"?[/url]
