Sorry that looks like a blatant composite.
EDIT: But it does have authentic looking components.

Ripley Clone 8January 14, 2012
If you right click and then view image. It pulls up the larger image. It is then obvious its not a composite. The forums shrink the image.

yes it look fake but i dont think the background is fake ...is the same photoshop composition/editing of the newspaper photos of some time ago . Are set photos heavily retouched ...

BiomechanicJanuary 14, 2012
Yeah It's not the size or resolution it's the lighting difference that doesn't look authentic in my opinion.

GehirnJanuary 14, 2012
BAHAHA...look at the arm badge. WEYLAND MEGA----
Still can't see the rest but this will start another battle.


Sergey ZaslavetsJanuary 14, 2012
The suits look like the statues. As the suit covered engineer when he entered his chair, what is the use of such suits, or maybe it`s a kind of suits for critical situations to take them on fast...

No composite of any images I have seen yet. Which is still intriguing because it is an obvious Photoshop. I work in PS CS5 and yes this could be done easily. You can even see halos and noise that have been attempted to be covered up just above her head and all through the darker area above her left shoulder.

FrantzJanuary 14, 2012
however cannot be all fake ..is a photo of noomi we havent see yet and the background cant be fan made imo


BiomechanicJanuary 14, 2012
Okay so it does look like a composite but it may not be. The Entertainment Weekly stuff looked fake also. I think the knee jerk reaction comes from the fact so much is revealed in this and that just seems wrong. Like Frantz said the image of Noomi does seem new and real but the background... I just don't know what is going on there.
1234567890January 14, 2012
Her image is totally real. The Weyland Patch does not say Mega though, it looks more like it is a staff patch stating what their position is, like Mechanic, Cook, Pilot, Doctor (IE: The Dharma badges in "Lost") I'm just thrown off by the obvious PS work but it looks like both pieces can be from something real. Maybe it was PS'd by some hack who tried cleaning it up or enhancing sharpness or contrast.

FrantzJanuary 14, 2012
mega ...if is mega it match perfectly with the photo bio posted some time ago about the hat of Janek ...is Weyland Megacorp or something like that

BiomechanicJanuary 14, 2012
Mindbender, Janek has something that starts with an M on his hat also though. I think it is the ships name but I don't think it is Magellan.

From the discussion [url=http://www.prometheus-movie.com/community/forums/topic/932]How do you spell Magellan?[/url]

1234567890January 14, 2012
The Logo has already been revealed and confirmed as the company name being "Weyland Corp" So who knows.

GehirnJanuary 14, 2012
[quote]The Weyland Patch does not say Mega though[/quote]
I'll give you back the 'A'. But I see a definite 'G'! LOL
1234567890January 14, 2012
Ah I didn't look at that detail before, his shirt definitely says "Weyland Corp"

BiomechanicJanuary 14, 2012
Hmm that's not a sun either that's a ringed planet they use in the logo.
She has pepper spray that means they knew of alien rapists and were prepared : )
artyohJanuary 14, 2012
Wow, that's a major reveal........elephantine stillsuits? Hmmm... I'm more impressed by their indestructable space ship.

BiomechanicJanuary 14, 2012
So yeah...

WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY...i was so hopeing the the sj actually really looked like their suites!!!....now that they look human i am really pissed off.......i think im gonna go punch my brother brb...well anyways..i dont know why RS hired such a fail team to produce the idea of the SJ...but if he followed the the comic books and actual books of the story..the space jockey look nothing like a human..they look much more alien!!!! more like the alien itself!!! im sure it will still be a great movie..but i was hopeing to be completely shocked and awed by the sight of the SJ...
artyohJanuary 14, 2012
Just because it's a suit, doesn't necessarily mean the creatures that wear them look fully human. Heck, I had been thinking that what we saw in "Alien" might be the result of an SJ having died in a state of being [i]physically[/i] biomechanically "merged" with the instrument he was found within.....muscles, nervous system, etc. That's super high-tech creepy, right? Am I disappointed that it reallly is, "just" a pedestrian environmental suit?.....not if it works in the story. I mean, would you want a couple of those giants stomping down...oh, say,[i] that[/i] corridor above, right at your heels, while bellowing out the order of limbs the're going to tear off, once they catch you?

StarbeastJanuary 14, 2012
So we travel 5 years through hyperspace to find an alien that wears good ol' Wellington boots?! There has been a lot of fact and innuendo that have not met my personal expectations of the film - the so-called "mohawk guy", the "tall guy", the "magic ooze" - but I made concessions and remained optimistic, repeating in my head, "In Ridley I trust, In Ridley I trust...". But I'm sorry to say, the sight of Wellington boots has finally broken me. Damn I thought there would be a bit more creativity around it all.
Of course, I'm already trying to explain to myself the boots and the rubbery suits themselves: perhaps the boots are no bother because in the actual film there is no view of them, and the suits are merely the costumes for the film rather than a part of it - assuming the background is a warts 'n' all internal pic.
I dunno, might have to hit the bottle to lift my spirits. Sorry to be a bummer.

JuxtaposeJanuary 14, 2012
I also work with photoshop everyday...her hair is the biggest give away...a really bad amateur job...cannot help but think it is fan made.....!
But those suits in the background....how do we know those are suits?...maybe those are the actual SJ's standing in the hallway?
To be honest i have not looked at the higher contrast images...but from what I have seen...they look like they might be the actual sj's...(or I guess maybe just suits...we'll see?)
P.S...Sorry I accidentally posted this on a similar thread as well...(the one following this)

JuxtaposeJanuary 14, 2012
@ Starbeast....yeah those boots...fuck!...did not really look close enough.....so maybe the SJ's like to wear boots?...lol
DarkestHourJanuary 14, 2012
actually im not too upset about the suits they have...they pretty ass kiking...but what i was complaining about was the shot...exuse me image of the person next to the chair riseing from the floor...the zoomed in picture...um...it looks way to human to me...even if it is a giant...im just disapointed...they should of had geiger on the set is all im saying...he is actually the whole creator of this world anyways...or the idea of it maybe..but in not sure if anyone is aware of a game called DARK SEED????? i was hopeing the SJ would follow a more...um..organic illustration of that universe, if u can understand my dumb babbling...but anyways ...check out dark seed...

shardyJanuary 14, 2012
i'm diggin' the spare Engineer suits (or maybe just statues?)
after all, there is HUGE sculpture of a head in one of those rooms
in any case, i had been wishing for a new image to tease us all,
and low and behold, i got my wish! really intriguing image here
and...i love the countdown to the PROMETHEUS film
for it to hit theaters in 145+ days (aaaaaaaaaaaaargh...!!!!!)
still, looks well worth the wait!

SyntheticJanuary 14, 2012
As interesting as the SJ "suits" are, I'm wondering why Noomi's suit looks so different from earlier released pictures that appear to be in the same location. Anyone up for a side by side comparison?
I started a new topic with example photos for discussion.

walterhillerJanuary 14, 2012
so this is where the "retouched" rumor came from? a bunch of sheep who can't use their own judgment to tell that it's a real photo?
the prometheus forum continues to challenge my faith in mankind.

Ghost SolitareJanuary 14, 2012
Why don't you use the photo to answer some of your questions? For instance, obviously if you were to apply resin to these surfaces, It would take on a much more INTENSE organic look like bones. I'm talking about applying it to the walls ceiling and floors, literally everything. Then it would look oddly familiar. The process would either take one xenomorph a long time, or many xenomorphs a short while.

Darn...Those figures remind me of:

I was hoping for something A LOT more Giger-esque and biomechanical. Eg:

db73January 15, 2012
You guys have got it all wrong. Quite clearly those are not suits. Rather 2 actual SJ's standing in the corridor waiting patiently for the lavatory to become available! Really, there's no need to over analyse this image :D
bucknuts15January 15, 2012
These are not suits. This the body. In alien, when they stumble across the sj. Dallas reveals the chest being busted open as if an a xeno bursted through. Also he claimed the body of the sj had decomposed. If this is a suit, then this is going to be an epic fail.
