MemberOvomorphApr-19-2012 12:23 AMHi all, I used the search and didn't find any results so I hope this won't be old news but did anyone notice this in the trailer. To me it almost looks like a primitive/first generation of face hugger maybe or possibly first generation of xeno chest burster. grabbed a screen. What do you guys think the thing being dangled above the person in the pod is?

MemberOvomorphApr-19-2012 3:13 AMYeah it has been showed.
Rethinking about it, makes me think of a snake/worm like Alien version Giger has drawn before.

MemberOvomorphApr-19-2012 4:58 AMHow do people get facehugger from this???
It looks like a big chestburster more than anything.

MemberDeaconApr-19-2012 6:48 AMWell it looks like a Face Hugger more than a Chest Burster but it is growing inside like a Chest Burster.
In this movie the Organisms Cycle is different, it would apear that the Worm Like Creature that could look a little like Chest Bursters perform a purpose simular to the Face Hugger.
This Organism i beleave occurs as the Organism/Bio Forming supstance etc re-writes its hosts DNA. And thus changes them into a Hybrid. Now a infected persons DNA but in early stage of transformation could pass on some of the Alien DNA onto a Human Embryo during sex, a Human Embryo in its early stage is near enough the same as a Dogs, Cats, Birds, Wale and near enough every Mamal on Earth.
A Embryo at a Early stage does not have much DNA in it that forms Human DNA and thus a Alien DNA that re-writes its hosts DNA does not have much DNA to change and thus we get a more Pure Form Hybrid Organism.
The Orginal Alien Script described the Face Hugger as Octopus like and thus more like Shaws Squid only it does not plant a Embryo that grows inside them like the Face Hugger did. Instead the orginal idea was that the Organism re-writes the Hosts DNA/Genes.
Ridley would have felt that having Octopus Organisms that grab onto peoples faces to start the process of its productive cylce would be much too close to the Face Hugger and Alien.
I then think he wanted to create the Orginal Scripts Octopus but have it as a Hybrid thats created by a certain number of events, maybe this would become the Proto Xeno? Or a new Organism that can lead to a new Franchise.
I think he has thus gone with the Worm like Organisms to forfill the purpose of how the Orginal Scripts Octopus effected its host... Thus Worm Thingys change its hosts DNA.
Thats just my take and i could be completely way off.

MemberOvomorphApr-19-2012 11:16 AMBigDave, please try to focus better and present your ideas more cogently. Perhaps most of you Alien geeks (I am one as well) are on the younger side of middle age? The writing here smacks of the "texting" generation....incoherent and poorly spelled. Now, it is fairly clear at this point that the iSperm infects halloway, then after he has sex with Shaw she gives birth to Squidly (now a Human/Alien hybrid), which then results in a protoxenomorph type creature. What's next is still a mystery...thank God:O)

MemberOvomorphApr-19-2012 12:44 PMI think you are looking at a species that evolves and adapts ruthlessly every time it is cross-bred with another race. Tailor made to eliminate and take over the host's life AND the planet they came from. Evolution and aggressive traits run wild kinda thing.

AdminPraetorianApr-19-2012 12:56 PMThere are at least a couple threads that have covered the subject:

@Dave_b; If you go read the "Average Age" thread, you will see most people here are in their 40's. Also, not everyone's first language is English, mine isn't.
*(Really wanted to say mostly ala Newt. XD "The people here are mostly in their 40's.. Mostly". )

Amen! Though I didn't see anything particularly egregious in this thread, I have definitely seen a few posts where I assume the poster is an ESL type person. Sometimes I will try to read people's posts and give up because they are so poorly written as to be physically painful to look at. As much as people complain about not wanting this film to be PG-13 because "the kids" will ruin it, it seems the primary fandom for this movie communicates at a gradeschool level or worse.
