Cobra Hugger

Face wise reminds me of Aliens in Independance day... Dunno whether that's good or bad... LOL...

The cobra: [img]http://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b74/Kapital21/Dibujoss-4.jpg[/img]

Snakes? Sort of biblical.

Looks like an organic version of the weyland yutani logo, perhaps it's actually synthetic?

Looks like an undeveloped facehugger.

ok so is that what went in his suit or did that scratch/bite him?

I've said it in another thread, I personally don't like it, but I'm confident that in the whole context of the scene will be OK. Maybe the thing that doesn't convince me yet are the kind of wings being too symmetrical...... I don't know is just a personal taste. Also I think we shouldn't name it a hugger yet, we know it gets on somebody's suit but not what it reallly does....... remember Ford shaking.

COBRA LALALALALA!!!!!

make a cool pipe

i think it simply puts it's long snake like tail down your throat to implant and the cobra hood acts as second pair of lungs or wind pipe to keep you breathing. Heck, maybe it kills you right then and there. How the glas melts and sucks to your face is beyond me. Blass melting could = acid for blood.

It's too symmetrical cause it's biomechanical duh!!

The skull to the melted helmet it's AWESOME. How you like them apples huh?!! I say rated R all the way, convincing proof to all the nay Sayers and unbelievers that this movie will scare the pantalones off anyone.

seems lıke undeveloped facehugger to me...

my question is why would you just stand there and look at it.........

I think it does inject something when it bites you, be that alien or a virus that transforms you into something, alien or sj or who knows what else. It has been posted before and someone mentioned on youtube and the idea was interesting that since the derelict in Alien has been said to be an older derelict that as Dallas said when he saw the SJ, has been there for a long time ... the xeno, facehugger, eggs could be the protoforms, could be the outdated bio-tech. This cobra thingy whatever and the liquid and whatever infects the guy that causes his helmet to melt be the better improved, new bio-tech. Just a thought.

Eyeball in the center may fit with HGG life cycle

Agreed with the "why stand there and extend my arm so you can get into my suit" actually it feels like the guy actually tries to grab it, just stayy away. and "duh" we do not know if this thing is biomechanic, not everything has to be.

Yeah, grabbing for it was a bonehead play.

You are right cryo not everything has to be biomechanical but for the looks of things in previous movie, Alien it seemed to some of us it was. But who knows what it really is, you are right.

Well it would seem this Organism maybe just gets inside of you and controlls you from the inside much like a Trill symbiont from Star Trek.

Any of you think that this "snake-cobra-hugger-tail " is actually a larger version of the tiny things david is smiling at, at the top of one of those urns; in the Russian featurette they look like worms in oil.

" too symmetrical" What´s wrong with simmetry? Most living beens display some kind of simmetry. It doesn´t even need to be one of these cherished "bio-mechanical" things that this forum likes so much....

That COBRANUS is HOT !!!

@Cryo I think youre onto something It's probably come from the "not so primordial soup" of the urn I think it takes Milburn as a host perhaps?

Well, I don't like it's attitude one bit. Rearing up like that and invading a man's suit.

I took some caps of the snakehugger - (Right-click and select "view image" for full size) [img]http://img717.imageshack.us/img717/3589/001mai.png[/img] [img]http://img39.imageshack.us/img39/4823/002dp.png[/img] [img]http://img829.imageshack.us/img829/8544/003no.png[/img] [img]http://img13.imageshack.us/img13/1778/004ab.png[/img] [img]http://img15.imageshack.us/img15/5580/005ho.png[/img] [img]http://img841.imageshack.us/img841/7223/006cz.png[/img] [img]http://img100.imageshack.us/img100/2852/007ug.png[/img] [img]http://img850.imageshack.us/img850/7155/008rw.png[/img]

Oh dawg, it's a penis before opening yay for more freudian creatures

It looks like it was sending out a warning by uncurling itself, and may have felt threatened when the dude reached for him. Anyone think maybe if the guy didn't reach for it, it wouldn't have lashed out? Oh, and I think it looks more like the thing that burst out of Kane, the first stage of the Xenomorph.

im reminded of the table of mythical elements on the weyland investors info. it had mythical elements like carmot and eitr. eitr was a substance that created all life in norse mythology which was said to be very poisonous and was secreted by a giant serpent. i could be summarizing a bit, but i think these things were put on the site to give us an idea of their influences for the story. hell, the movie could even explain that our ancient beliefs were based on actual alien happenings. i think the black stuff or whatever is inside of the ampules, could be eitr or the movie equivalent.

odmanout, that eitr/serpent connection is a superb theory. I've always believed that some of the more outlandish mythologies have some grounding in actual events/creatures.
