Found on [url=http://www.heyuguys.co.uk/2012/04/11/discover-prometheus-with-these-new-exclusive-images/]HeyYouGuys.co.uk[/url]. 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.

YES... I have always felt that we were dealing with "master & servant" situation here, and I think the "telescope/chair" was SPECIFICALLY designed for our "Elephant Men", and they are NOT the pilots of these vessels. The "Blue Meanine" or whatever we see attempting to use the chair in the trailer is clearly NOT meant (to me anyway) to be in the chair. I have a very specific theory on what the chair mechanism actually does... but I did not want to reveal it yet. : )

Here's what I think is happening. This is a visual representation of the humanoid using his DNA and that of the creatures to create something that is a mix of the two. Obviously, this thing's arms are not reminiscent of the SJ, but if you look at the legs, they look human. They're tucked up to the chest and there appear to be knees that function like the human knee. So, I think by showing what the creature's original limbs probably looked like as well human legs, it is supposed to communicate a forced evolution. The other element that makes me think this, especially that the evolution is forced, is the humanoid's stance as well as the fact that his hand seems to be fusing with the creature. Both emphasize the point of connection between the two creatures. Consider the SJ, it seems like a pretty obvious mix of these two creatures, right? Proboscis with roughly human legs, arms, and hands. I'm assuming the humanoids and the SJ are not the same thing and that a bio-mechanical suit isn't involved.

@Membrane, you nailed it. Actually you managed to show more of the trunk than I saw. Great job! @SpceJockStrap, nice find. That creature was really scary in poltergeist! @CanadaPhil and Progeny, looks like we are all the same page. Elephant Sj, and Humanoid engineers.

Maybe we are dealing with two different races but why would there be those suits standing like statues behind shaw in the picture from awhile back if said races where enemies or had a fight? http://www.geekrest.com/2012/01/new-still-of-noomi-rapace-in-prometheus-details-on-scope-of-film/ (the second pic down, sorry i couldn't get a link put there) I don't care if its Carlos Huante or Giger really, I just hope we see a few of these murals all morphing and telling a story. I don't think I've ever seen either artists work being portrayed in this manner. I think I was looking too long at the mural but I started to see some blond hair on the humanoid form. Another thing is I kind of see these humanoids looking almost perfect in physicality, like one would think of Gods. I believe David is sculpted this way too. I hope David dosn't become some mutated whatever but I do think it's a bit coincidental.

I don't think those are suits. I think those are statues. I would wonder why their suits are just sitting out in the open and not tucked away somewhere, given the level of technology. With respect to their artistic values, we know there are giant carvings and murals in the temple already, why not statues? I don't think there is a good argument as to why they [i]couldn't[/i] be statues, but I think that fact that all of their other technology seems to be tucked away or built into a room supports the idea that the suits probably wouldn't just be sitting in a hallway. Just my opinion.

Well when i saw that first image i had a idea.. But then seeing the other posts where you highlight what apears to be some kind of creature that does look like the Giger Primitive Creature, and so i think thats connected. This means what i thought the very second i saw that Mural Shot is wrong. But here is what i thought anyway... Before this new image we saw 2 Murals in the Trailer, with the crew sayings "Its Changing" "Changing into What" Now i thought that the one we saw the wall changing into something, the other scene we saw the Xeno Mural. Now we now have this new Image. This is the idea that came into my head, the crew walk into that room and see the Wall Change into that new Image, and then from that to the Xeno Mural. Which made me think does this show, some Humaniod Touch Something, that then changes him into the Xeno? Look at the Headless Jockey, some other thread speculated and showed a leaked gif of what looks like a Egg with something comming out of it, what if thats not the Jockeys Head, or maybe it is. And something jumps from that Head/Egg or what ever and infects a Human, who then changes into the Xeno. Maybe thats what that Mural is showing us. My theory would only work if indeed that latest Mural Image does change to the Xeno one we have seen before. But then looking at the new image it looks like some kind of creature that the Humaniod is touching or trying to keep away from him. The Cave Painting scene does show a tall humaniod pointing to the Stars and seems to be pushing at bay some kind of beast.

Someone had mentioned these aliens being vain and I do agree that they seem to like conveying who they are. A huge head in their image, morphing murals depicting them, and a huge mountain or whatever that seems to contain these things. This species seems to think they are important and maybe they are but to what extent I still don't know other than they are in this movie. I think that this mural depicts the humanoids being dominant over whatever that other thing is in the mural.

I believe the creature is is in fact a SJ without an exo-skeleton and the mural is depicting how humans possibly ruled over the SJ's at one point (hence the SJ's reason to destroy earth with xenomorphs). It appears to me that the limbs of the SJ's are tentacle like as he mural shows, such as the snake like shape we see being placed in within a glove in the trailers. In conclusion the real Alien bad guy this time around are the SJ's. * Forgive me if this has already been discussed, I am new to this forum and am relatively new to being fanatical about the universe of Alien. Any thoughts? Cheers

Here's my theory: That the humanoid isn't MAKING the xeno, but is taking its energy. I think it's dying and the human is taking the remaining energy it has left, perhaps to morph into a more full xeno (as seen on the mural image in the trailer). I think it's the other way around (not like most think, that the human is creating the xeno) due to the fact that the human is more illuminated than the xeno, if that makes sense. Also, the human is only partially complete, the "arm" attached to the xeno has not completely formed. If the man was creating the xeno, then there would be more evidence of xenos being present in the temple. As it is, it's all humanoid. I think taking energy from the xenos allowed the humanoids to become a more powerful creature, and thus have complete control. I mean, think about it, the humanoids are HUGE. Xenos: HUGE. SO, rereading the posts, I think you were thinking along the same lines, BigDave. Also, I agree with whomever mentioned that the "suits" are actually statues. That was my first thought as well. Suits doesn't really make sense, there's only two...and in the middle of nowhere, not in some supply room.

SHIT ! that Poltergeist from Giger is cool..I remember now watching it ..must be from the 80ies.. [URL=http://www.imagebanana.com/view/swfczbvo/8632931_7.jpg][IMG]http://img6.imagebanana.com/img/swfczbvo/thumb/8632931_7.jpg[/IMG][/URL] I remeber, this creature was the priest taht transformed into this monster and was creeping across the floor..uuurrrrh the temple has a design is kinda inspired by gothic cathedrals, more that DaVinci, really ! It is NOT very renaissance like.. it even makes sense if you look at the biomechanic structures working as ribbed vaults like in gothic architecture..

OK, Im still not going to give you my whole take on this, but I will try to give you a couple hints as to what I am thinking. Food for thought... The "Jockey" is the literal "Prometheus" of our story. He is a Titan, but not quite a God. He is subservant to the God's (and there may be several different ones!) Now, Im going to skip over a lot of the in between for now, but think on this..... The turntable/gun mechanism of the alien vessel has been designed as BOTH a means of life creation/birth while at the same time being a method of CRUEL PUNISHMENT for the poor "Jockey" who has done wrong! And he and his fellow kinsmen are going to have to endure this punishment over and over again until the end of time! Now my first clues for you... I wont put direct picture attachments in this for now, but most of you will probably be familiar with what I mean when I describe it... Notice how the tube like devices/attachments at the bottom of the "Jockey" chair spin along with the chair and actually LINE UP with connecting points at the bases of the 4 Sarcophagi attached to opposite corners of the turntable. Now, do you see how adjacent Sarcophagi LINE up with each other on each diagonal... As if one is an ENTRY channel and one is an EXIT channel? Does that get your little hamsters on their treadmills going yet?? Hahahaha

@wgfkas What you have circled as the head is the left knee, and the top of your torso section where the humanoid's hand meets the other creature is the head.

Oh shit...wait a minute. A bunch of people have mentioned the holes in the sarcophogi...those holes are placed pretty perfectly for a chest burster to come out, aren't they? Maybe those sarcophogi hold impregnated lifeforms.

Sort of... The hole in the top is simply meant to INSERT whatever material the ENGINEER has decided to in any given situation. But I meant the lower bottom corners of the pods which would line up DIRECTLY with the channel like tubes on the bottom of the chair. As the chair swivels and locks in place on the turntable, these channels now form a connection with the bottom corners of the Sarcophagi. Do you get what I mean now? PS: I honestly CANNOT BELIEVE NO ONE HERE has noticed this until now !!!! I really need GEMinis overhead turntable shot to illustrate this, but I cant find it right now. Will try to add it here later.

I have to say the "elbow thorns" looked familiar and the long hands.. Now this may just be my mind wandering I seem to see ..things...but Remember our gif of "Baby Huey" wannabe? [img]http://www.larsfocke.de/temp/prometheus_mutant_animation.gif[/img] Maybe its just the suit and maybe i've had too much cough medicine but? [img]http://img259.imageshack.us/img259/7815/seeingthings.jpg[/img] We got some elbow thorns in that pic? Watch the gif

Please...it Morphs / Changes. It may show more than one creature. It may be trying to tell a story that humans can understand (or the individual viewer - Shaw) understands from their personal life experiences.? Maybe the Humnoid / Jesus , but if shown as Xeno it would repulse the viewer (Shaw) too much to comprehend.

I see it for sure. What are you saying the significance of this is?
