EXACTLY! LIKE A TERMITE MOUND! No, I did not mean it was a Xeno hive ala 1986 Aliens, but that this is something that came before it, and it became the "overlord" after conquering or eclipseing something else on this world. I believe there actually are some species of African Termites or Ants that battle each others hives...and then the "victors" in a sense enslave the other different species and basically use them as worker drones or such... Forget if is was the Termite or Ant.

Thanks Membrane great job Love that column pic

Dont you mean COMPUTER CORE ? hahaha

Forget if is was the Termite or Ant. Reminds me again of the Outer Limits Modern Day Series Premier "The Sandkings" !!!

It looks like a termite mound indeed! I love the homage to Alien on the displays of the Prometheus. In Alien we see something similar when Ripley sets off the self destruction. [img]http://img825.imageshack.us/img825/8947/selfdes.jpg[/img] Or have they programmed the Prometheus to detonate when they ram into the alien ship?

Those pillars remind me of the ones he used in Legend and Bladerunner. Not forgetting the pyramids of Tyrell Corporation, there are numerous images which Ridley seems very fond of having in his films.

Oh.. I just realized.. You can see the "Jockey" vessel though the bridge canopy in that one pic. I assumed when I first glanced at it that it was a scene from when P. is first setting up its initial landing on the planet. So then I guess everyone is still at their stations moments before the "suicide run" and then jump into their emergency ejection capsules?.

Just look at the thing wiggling, Man it is soooooo damn exciting to me to find out what that actually is and if it is as I suspect the beginnings of the original Xenomorph Life Form Dallas et al met their fate with.

This is a fantastic rampup to the movie...obviously they'll open a new "sphere" each week until the release date, which is of course on a thursday midnite (to correllate with today being thursday)... GREAT and exciting stuff...

Wow an intergalactic advent calender for alien freaks it doesn't get better than that.

Well, however this movie turns out, I dont think that anyone can deny that VISUALLY, it is ABSOLUTELY STUNNING!! ( Guess its obvious what $150 mill. buys! ) If if turns out to be a GREAT movie, I can see it getting an Academy Award nod for Art Direction at the very least.

The shot with the Ampules (Pods) ... looks more like a proper Armoury now :) ... that's a nice 'clean' shot of that scene ... loads of detail ... so that is the HIVE shot then? ...

In the new ampule picture it looks like some ampules are stacked and loaded in the wall chutes. We've seen these wall structures all over over the place. I think these mounds are some kind of factory, warehouse and loading dock for the ships. Maybe ampules are created in one area, stacked and stored in another and then loaded onto the ship all via these chutes.

@ Gem... NO... By HIVE, I meant this one... [img]http://img94.imageshack.us/img94/7465/scanth.jpg[/img]

I'm wondering if the derelicts are some kind of Ark. The ampules could be storing the genetic materials, personalities, history of the SJs maybe? Maybe humans are like the canaries in the mine? When we have advanced sufficiently to reach the SJs on the progenitor world, they know that Earth is ready to "harvest" and colonize?

@Phil ... Yeah but I meant those Ampules are the 'Larvae' of somekind, in the hive layout ... that Ampule shot is not necessarily in the ship ;) ... Sh!t ... what if some species can fly :) ...
