MemberOvomorph01/15/2012Is the flying saucer seen in the trailer over the waterfall the rear circular part of the derelict which can detach leaving the rest of the ship as a base of operations/lab for the engineers. Maybe the SJ's are the pilots?

MemberOvomorph01/15/2012Still dont know what that is, but
indeed it looks like an ufo
and not a space rupture like
in Halo where space vessels can travel
With slipspace technology.
Guess we need to wait for a trailer
that shows more if it or some new images
being leaked within the next months.

MemberOvomorph01/15/2012WOW, what an interesting thought that is though, I never would have figured that based on what my mind thinks is the scale involved alone, but come to think of it, could in fact be possible.

MemberTrilobite01/15/2012yeah...
Engineers = big blue guys.
Engineers stay on board do their tests and stuff,
Space Jockeys = pilots.
space Jockeys fly the Derelict, maybe detaching the disc for observations.
Could be, could be... scale wise it could work, depends on the detail. would need a close up pic of the saucer from the trailer.

MemberOvomorph01/15/2012Wait.. how tall are they again? And they're blue? So Jim Cameron (director of [i]Aliens[/i]!) has already shown them to us, in [i]Avatar[/i].
I see now... it's all connected. The Na'Vi develop into a highly technological race, with Jake Sully's help, and they and develop genetic engineering to create the aliens to destroy the humans! It all makes sense now! The elephant skulls are clearly just a throwback to their tribal warrior society, used to frighten the enemy.

MemberOvomorph01/16/2012I'm fascinated by the saucer/waterfall scene. It doesn't appear to have any resemblance to the jockey ship/derelict. It's more like the traditional UFO shape from what we can see. I don't think it has anything to do with the space jockey ship.

MemberOvomorph01/16/2012I agree that it is some sort of wormhole or stargate. Yes, I did use the term " Stargate".

MemberOvomorph01/17/2012Funny you should mention stargate, when I saw in the trailer the derelict ship sitting on the ground with it's "forks" pointed at the sky, that's the first thing I thought - this "ship" might actually be a stargate the SJ's set up on a planet and use to fly thru and navigate the universe.
