That mural one is certainly interesting. The hole is pretty much where the jockey's tear is located in Alien, just extended a bit more.

Nevermind, when you blow it up to giant size it clearly looks like it is morphing. Probably what one of the characters were eluding to in the dialog in the trailer.

Ethon the RipperApril 11, 2012
Epic, especially this:

This is definitely God

OutlanderApril 11, 2012
Following the literal description of Prometheus, that is where his liver would be.
There looks to be soem sort of creature to the left, hunched over its knees.
ShaneApril 11, 2012
yeah but when you blow it up it looks to be reshaping itself. I think they choose that still very carefully to invoke both the wound on the jockey from the original, and the story of prometheus.
WhyDontTheyFreezeHimApril 11, 2012
I Adjusted the contrast a bit so its slightly more clear -

The thing to the bottom left looks like some kind of creature.
FULL SIZE -

To me this echoes the pictogram on the wall in the cave on the Isle of Skye. There's that creature that looks like a hog or something. You can see the snout and the ribcage.
On this shot, you can also see a ribcage.

Ethon the RipperApril 11, 2012
I'm not sure about this, I could be wrong, but I think something is moving in the center of the Derelict (seems to be walking). It looks like a humanoid figure, Did David or the Space Jockey?
[img]http://i1074.photobucket.com/albums/w420/ethon86/Prometheus-Cinemagraph-4.gif[/img]
At the same time seems to have three figures like eggs on the underside of the center of the ship. (in the same room of the figure walking)
ShaneApril 11, 2012
The movement is the red and yellow dots from one of the trailers. You can find stills of it pretty easy.
Red is the tracking balls [I figure] Yellow have letters over them so i suspect they are the crew.

Ethon the RipperApril 11, 2012
Well, the creature of the mural appears to be the guy we've seen giant in both trailers and probably as large statue head is another of his performances (the Space Jockey / Engineer)


OutlanderApril 11, 2012
@WhyDontTheyFreezeHim
Thanks for illuminating that. With the added detail, it almost looks as if the humanoid is reaching out to grasp the top of the head of some alien form. It's sort of like a twisted version of God and David touching fingertips on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel.
WhyDontTheyFreezeHimApril 11, 2012
This is what Im seeing(excuse crappy paint skills!) -
[img]http://img638.imageshack.us/img638/84/hyhyhyhy.png[/img]
It looks to me like the creature is crouching in a xeno kind of way -
His mouth kinda looks like little tentacles.

Ethon the RipperApril 11, 2012
Holy crap! @WhyDontTheyFreezeHim You're right, there is a sort of creature / monster or something.
Thanks for clarifying

OutlanderApril 11, 2012
Yeah. Exactly. Do you remember the quotes comparing this to The Thing?
The humanoid also appears to be dominating the other creature.
ShinobiX9XApril 11, 2012
The very first image with the spaceship, i don't know where it is, but the background is similar to the nazca lines

Ethon the RipperApril 11, 2012
Yeah, definitely the Engineer of the mural is dominating some kind of beast.
@ShinobiX9X The Nazca Lines are the roads or airstrips. In fact, the Prometheus lands on one of them and then APC vehicles drive on these roads.
ShinobiX9XApril 11, 2012
that article tells a lot of "spoilers" some ppl will not watnt o read it
that image on the ceiling, the liver part looks more like it's an old broken painting, and i kind of see a "human" with his pet, (whatever that pet might be)
2fray2April 11, 2012
For me it's GOLEM !

NoXWordApril 11, 2012
[quote=Shane]It definitely looks to be designed by Carlos Huante.[/quote]
Looks more like Giger to me, especially the pet thing.
Ridley Scott will eventually tell us how the Queen was born.
Right now we have the Deacon; coming soon the Mercury, the May and the Taylor.

Kane77April 11, 2012
the creature that lies beneath the man on the left is really strange..
seems that it is sticking something into the humans leg...
strange, too, the humans arm is morphed into the head of the creature?

NoXWordApril 11, 2012
Yes, I cannot really tell where the arm/hand ends and the head (if there is a head!) begins.
Rather than sticking something in the leg of the humanoid being, it seems to me that it has spikes on its elbows (look at the right arm, there's a similar spike, they are also seen in the red outline above).
The original Giger's alien has similar spikes protruding from its elbows.

CervantesApril 11, 2012
This whole scene could perhaps show a continually changing 'informational mural' with many different images morphing over each other.
We see a brief moment of it in the trailers, and it does indeed remind me of the 'Sistine Chapel' ceiling painting...from HELL!

Ethon the RipperApril 11, 2012
look at the arms of the criature of the mural, elbow appears to have a kind of thorn or spur like the classic Xenomorph.

PS: I know it's not a Xeno but it sure has some similar characteristics. On the other hand as pointed out by @ Sigismund, like a painting of God and Adam, or maybe Frankenstein and his creation: "The Monster" (an ancestor of the Xenomorph)

KronikApril 11, 2012
I agree, pretty much the same creature as on the Sky cave painting:
[img]http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-1R-qTqQHBj4/T2Ur46Ybw1I/AAAAAAAAAkc/OfIDW9Ykjpk/s1600/prometheus_full_trailer_00017.jpg[/img]
Just to the left of the tall guy... seems subservient to the humanoid.

EGR101April 11, 2012
The giant head is probably inspired by this illustration done by a French artist Gustave Dore depicting Satan in his icy prison:
[img]http://i-cias.com/e.o/ill/hell01.jpg[/img]
WhyDontTheyFreezeHimApril 11, 2012
It could indeed be the same creature in the cave painting. But the one thing that makes me think it [i]isnt[/i] the same creature, is that the cave painting creature is quite small compared to the tall guy.
If what Im seeing and outlined in red is correct in any way, and it is drawn to scale of the big blue guy, then the creature looks to be of equal size, or even a bit bigger(compare "head" size of the two) -
[img]http://img826.imageshack.us/img826/2540/hyhyhyhyyt.png[/img]
Im kinda thinking it has something to do with a xeno or space jockey.
Shilliam WatnerApril 11, 2012
@Kane77
Look between the two pink circles you drew. That is a Space Jockey elephant head with eyes and snout looking down. Tilt your screen. Also it looks to have a scorpion stinger about to pierce the image of the blue guys leg. I see three figures when zoomed in.
The elephant head is right directly above the stinger.

NoXWordApril 11, 2012
I love heavy speculation!

Ethon the RipperApril 11, 2012
The sting is in the side arm of the creature, similar to the Xenomorphs. But certainly his head looks more like a Space Jockey helmet.
Anyway it is quite possible that this creature is the same as appears in the rock art of the Sky island. Perhaps the giant God wanted to say: "Under no circumstances travel to this star system or you will come face to face with this" ...
WhyDontTheyFreezeHimApril 11, 2012
@ NoXWord - I have NO idea how you see that LOL!
But yeah, I love heavy speculation too.
@ Shilliam Watner - Yup, I said it kinda looks like a space jockey head too. But when you compare them, they are quite different. Also the space jockey doesnt have those spike things on his elbows. Still could be him though....or it could be nothing at all! Just another case of Jesus face seen in toast lol!
EDIT - The original Space Jockey DOES appear to have something that resembles spikes coming from his elbows!....only it seems like they have "grown into his arm/chair"....

Kane77April 11, 2012
@Shatner
not really convincing.. the two egg looking thingies look like KNEES, very realistic painted..but when these are knees the whole body position would be wrong..;)
strange..
WhyDontTheyFreezeHimApril 11, 2012
@ Kane - Agreed. The big guys right knee(our left) looks strange so I looked at it more and thought it may be an egg....even with something like a chest burster coming out of it LOL
I think thats definitely a case of seeing Jesus in toast though! Im just looking at it for too long.
NoXWordApril 11, 2012
Actually, there a position in which those knees would be consistent with a humanoid figure, that is with the legs crossing at the ankles. In that position the knees are forced apart and there's room for bending the head.
But also, many Giger's paintings defy perspective (assuming that this is from Giger).

Shilliam WatnerApril 11, 2012
@Kane77
Well I see what looks to be a arm draping over the middle of the back of the elephant head body like there is a another figure behind it that we cant see. Remember the still is of a incomplete morphing image taking place. I just don't see the elepant head image with one eye socket visible as a knee.
