"The Alien in Prometheus will be very reminiscent of the original "Xenomorph" seen in the popular sci-fi Alien series; originally kicked off by Ridley Scott aswell. However, these new creatures are said to be much, much larger than the Xeno's we are familiar with; being a product of Alien DNA and Space Jockey, the Alien product will look different, and will be extremely large in size.
The overall features which make "Alien" so Alien will be easily noticable according to inside sources with minor changes to suit that of the host species; in this case the unfortunate pilot Space Jockey. This follows the original Alien canon of host-dependant characteristics. Aliens born of humans, equal human-Alien crossed byproduct. Aliens born from dogs, equal dog-Alien crossed byproduct. So the fact that an Alien born from the enormous Space Jockey would be larger than that born of a human would make perfect sense.
Whether these Aliens bleed acid or not is still unknown, aswell as the "second jaw" characteristic which was so unqiue to the original "Alien's". Not much is known regarding bodily features, but we do have a small grasp on what to expect in terms of behavior. These Aliens are said to act differently, more perverse and a strong sexual infleuence is hinted in recent sourced news articles regarding the film's progress.
The concept of the infint Alien bursting through the chests of their victims is still rumoured to be a characteristic of these creatures. Which leads us to believe that the classic "Alien life cycle" has not be interrupted in the re-design for this film. But there may be variants, again not much is known this early in developement.
More information regarding the Alien will surface as we reach release, so check back for updates!"
So... If this is true, why is everyone still wondering what the alien(s) will be like? And if it is not true, why is it on the website?
