And finally,

The point I am geting at is, do you think holloway and Shaw have a relationship. He gets infected withsomething and back on the ship the get jiggy and turns into rape basically, he is not himself , he is something else or turning into something else. Then if you look at the pic where he is on the bed you can see what must be her on the bed, possibly bloodies and bruised and unconscious and his head is in his hands after he has realised what has happened. She waked up and goes to the docstors for help but collapses. Then skip to the other pics that we saw in the comic con trailer where it looks like something in her stomach. This is not too far fetched even though it does sound like something from The Thing or Species movies. What do you all think?

MemberOvomorph01/20/2012I don't think that the 'belly' belongs to Shaw. Only because i'd bet if you've got something like that growing inside you and more than likely bursting out - then you're not going to be alive much longer, let alone running from a crashing derelict like we see shaw doing lair in the trailer/movie.

Apollo
MemberOvomorph01/20/2012Yes but who is to say that we dont see shaw bloodies with that belly til near the end of the movie and the derelict crashing nera the start of the movie for example. I understand and respect what you are saying buty i am just keeping my thoughts open. @ Krak Fox what do you think about the other pics and their relation to each other?

MemberOvomorph01/20/2012It says on Wiki that Shaw and Holloway have it going on. I don't think Shaw gets raped, I can see that she's in bed semi covered and looks injured, but I just don't think the injuries are due to any rape. Ok Holloway looks upset, but that could be about something else.
The shot where Shaw staggers into the lab covered in blood seems to link to the 'please' shot - and even the belly shot if it's her.
Kate Dickie says the crew get chased by skeletal aliens, so maybe the bloodied Shaw is after on such encounter...
...truth is, i really don't know. But i think the shaw running from the derelict is after the belly bit cuz by the this time, the Prometheus seems to have been destroyed..
..unless the 'belly' bit isn't on the Prometheus at all. Maybe it's the last shot we see in the film set on a rescue ship....Shaw's been infected after all and all hell's about to break loose!! Cut to credits!!

Apollo
MemberOvomorph01/20/2012Like your thinking. Well i hope it is not rape involved. In all honesty i hate anything about rape in movies. Ok some stories it is necessary but sometimes just a bit too much so i would like to believe your version more. Good to think though

MemberOvomorph01/20/2012I'm sure I've seen the theory of Shaw & Holloway having some sort of relationship floating about at some point. I think the scene where who appears to be Shaw, staggers into what looks like a med lab and collapses, will follow the scene with Holloway sat on a bed with his head in his hands. The injuries look consistant between the sleeping/dead(?) person in Holloways bed and the one that colapses in the med room.

MemberOvomorph01/20/2012Its has been confirmed they are in a realtionship. I can't cite it for you, but I [i]think[/i] it was in the Empire interview a while back. I'd agree with [b]@Apollo[/b] I think she gets impregnated with something nasty.
We've seen from the trailer stills that Holloway gets infected.

So it is entirely plausible that they have a bit of a rough session and she comes out of it worse for wear.

Mentos
MemberOvomorph01/20/2012Here is a question for you [b]@Apollo;[/b] what do you think she gives birth to? I mean, we can see her running from the crashing derelict in the stills. And I would a hazard a guess that that would take place later on in the film?
Surely this means that Shaw must survive the birth? It is also worth mentioning that Noomi Rapace was quoted a while ago saying [i]"by the end of the film, she is a real surviver[/i] (in reference to her character, Shaw).

Apollo
MemberOvomorph01/20/2012God knows, maybe an egg, sounds strange but i believe the eggs are from the urns that Fassbender picks up. They look like they need baking lol what i mean is they need some more substance to them. Sounds strange i know. Or maybe a facehugger or most likely something we have not seen yet. What do you think Mentos.

Mentos
MemberOvomorph01/20/2012To be honest I really haven't got a clue! It could be anything really. Some people have actually suggested its just a dream, but I really doubt that. All we know from the leaked trailer is that: [b]a.)[/b] It is large and [b]b.)[/b] it moves inside her.
Possibly some sort of creature? Maybe the slug thing we've seen in the original leaked trailer?

MemberOvomorph01/20/2012remember that shaw can have injuries from the big fall due to the "sand" storm/explosion ... however the "halloway start to mutate and lose control of himself " theory is not totally to discharge .

Mentos
MemberOvomorph01/20/2012That's very true [b]@Frantz[/b]. But after noticing the injuries to her legs on this image:

I would assume this follows:

MemberOvomorph01/20/2012It's a very interesting theory. Perhaps this is stretching things a little, but when that Alien Harvest script was circulating and we had lots of disimformation, it mentioned a scene of male rape. So the 'truth' in it is that there IS a rape scene, but it's with Shaw?
The whole rumour about a giant alien head 'steering' or navigating the ship ended up being partially true; we have the giant head, so with each little bit of disinformation we see a little truth in there somewhere. So perhaps there was some truth in rape appearing in the movie?

Frantz
MemberOvomorph01/20/2012I dont think that since there was a male rape scene in a totally fake script there must be also a rape in prometheus ( and it was not from Spaihts )
There was a cat chestbusting in that fake plot ...so we will have a goat chestbusting in prometheus ? :p
all the giant head talking came from some leaked photos or news from the set ...and over that they did start to build theories about that giant head .
Soon we will have a mix of the giant head's theory and the rape ..im curious to see what sort out ...

MemberOvomorph01/20/2012What if Shaw gives birth to the big bald blue guy who is seen next to the Space Jockey chair. Maybe that's why he looks so human. Due to the goo stuff and mixture of human DNA.

Andrew Ryan
MemberOvomorph01/20/2012Looking at the animated gif of the "serpent" creature the more I wonder if it's a total red herring--it looks like it could just be some kind of dust cover being pulled off a piece of equipment. Maybe after they awake from cryosleep and starting operating the ship again. A shape-shifting manta ray as the "monster" will definitely quell my enthusiasm for this movie.
Also, the two shots of Shaw could be reversed. The first shot I see bruising and in the second shot I see lots of blood. She could head to medical after some sort of accident or attack covered in blood, and after being treated and recovers she gets sleeps with a fellow crew member after turning to him for comfort.
The attack planted some sort of SJ egg, fertilized by human sperm, leading to rapid belly-expanding pregnancy and some sort of hideous birth.
OT, but has anyone discussed the significancy of MIchael Fassbender's character with a drop of blood on his finger? Just for promo purposes or does it happen in the movie? What are the implications of a synthetic with blood--a Pinnochio storyline where he uses the urns to become human (remember the trailer shot of him opening the urn) but instead morphs into some type of horrible biomechanical monster?

MemberOvomorph01/20/2012Andrew, i also see the possibility
that the goo and david might
create tge protoform xenomorph,
As david is already biomechanical.
I always thought that thr androids
In the alien movies are actually
Cyborgs.

jujutsuka
MemberOvomorph01/20/2012Another avenue that maybe hasn't been explored is whether the contents of the ampules can only react with biological material. So, suppose David is only an android without any bio-matter. Maybe the ampule goo is still able to merge with a mess of wiring and white android glop, because the ampule goo is simply not "DNA" as we know/understand it.
The pathway to life on Earth is through DNA, but maybe that's no so with life elsewhere in the universe. That is intriguing to me--creating a new lifeform based on something that is not technically alive.

MemberOvomorph01/20/2012Based on all of the thin and cluttered threads of information we've all been able to gather here, as well as across the web, I don't believe there's a rape...I don't know, it just doesn't fit or feel right for me (Icould be wrong). I get the sense that she somehow comes into contact with something, perhaps the genetic material that's been referenced (I wonder if the gelatinous green thing Fassbender's holding up is that material), and she becomes impregnated.
Ultimately, it makes sense to me that the injuries we see in those two pics in particular are the result of two things...one, the sandstorm that completely levels her and two, what has to be a very unpleasant birthing sequence that I would expect happens in a way similar to natural human birth, but far more dangerous and difficult to endure.

MemberOvomorph01/21/2012Question: a picture of a swollen stomach has been mentioned, but I can't see it/find it. Could you point me in the direction please?
Ta!

Gavin
MemberTrilobite01/21/2012You can see it in the leaked trailer, which I posted a link to in a thread a while back, but i cant remember which one lol
