xeno in space jockey

yea, the jockey at the end i think will get payback for settin some creature on them and the creature will turn on him and infect him.

I still want to believe this isn't a direct prequel. However, I think it's obvious that there will be at least two types of Xeno's never seen before along with mutated humans. The first xenos being solely derived from humans. Even though humans played host throughout the franchise the origin was from the SJ. Whatever laid the eggs in Alien most likely chest burst out of a SJ and when we are hosts the resulting Xeno just takes on our humanoid shape and relative size. POSSIBLE SPOILER BELOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (cont.) I would imagine the ones spawned from Shaw would probably look kind of like the xenos from Aliens but smooth and fleshy like us. The second xeno(s) come from the SJ's which should look like the ones from all other movies but massive.... All Queen size or larger. Even if it's not a direct prequel seeing a SJ get infected and the resulting Xeno would explain where they came from and why they look like they do. Also, the white snake in the preview looks like a face hugger of some kind. Perhaps it's a face hugger in raw form created by the SJ and not laid by a Queen(Egg before the chicken so to speak). Perhaps they are inside the ampules and one just happened to get out of storage or the Prometheus crew did something to initiate it's release. I'm thinking the temples were dormant until the crew walked in and screwed up whatever the SJ's had going on. Just some thoughts...

Nice thoughts and some i pondered a while back, but with the comments made by Ridley, the Scenes i have seen inc Hologram/Ghost ones, the Mural, the Dead Jockeys and the Cast list for Engineers... I think the Xeno was created a long time before Prometheus lands, and a Derelict/Juggernaught landed on LV426 a long time before this movie. I do think we will see the fate of that Derelict Ship in a scene in the movie but it would be in a Visual Narative Scene just as the Water Fall Scene will be. This scene will show the Derelict at the very least making a landing on LV426 and show a Egg Chamber with maybe one open. Will it show Face Hugger, or Chest Burster i am not so sure.

Just found this site, super pumped for the movie! I remember seeing Alien when I was little and the SJ scene freaked me out. My opinion is that the SJ infects himself with a queen, sacrifices himself, Queen lays eggs,the mission is to leave for Earth, ship lands, infects everyone, aliens everywhere, thats how they take over planets. But the humans crash into the ship when it leaves hoping to save Earth and the ship lands and what we find in Alien is the resulting crash. Maybe the warning beacon from ALien was from Prometheus not the Alien ship. However in Alien they sait the SJ grew out of the chair and he was foscilized. Not sure what the time inbetween would be. That being said, I would think the SJ's who have mastered space travel for 1000's of yrs super intelligent...would have a better way of destroying people than self inpregnating monsters....just seems primative for an advanced race.

@hadster87 I don't agree that it infects itself with a queen and the queen lays the eggs. The eggs were protected and covered with an electronic nest. It reacts when broken. How would a queen create that electric field overtop the eggs? I think the eggs were the cargo and something went wrong releasing a facehugger which laid an alien in that space jockey. The chestburster kills the space jockey and eventually the existing Xeno will die on its own. No other hosts to keep the species going, so the eggs just sit in a state of hibernation until the events of the first Alien film. If the eggs were not there already then how would the SJ infect itself with an embryo?

Good point, Maybe the humans somehow got the eggs lose and 1 got on the SJ. I do believe that the SJ wants to take the eggs to Earth. And I still thik they would have a better way of cleansing a planet, but oh well. Oh and Im not so sure the Xeno would die on its own. I dont knwo if they need food or not. In Aliens Burke says the colony has something like 80 families. Lets say a family of 4 that would make 320 Aliens for that movie if everyone was taken alive. Wasnt it months before they had contact? Time for the space Marines to get there...so many questiosn for movies that I grewe up on.

Maybe when the eggs were unleashed upon those on the Ancheron colony the 'take-over' process might have been a blistering frenzie of predatory aggressive attack and a continual onslaught fo seize and capture, seize and capture with no let-up. The 'take-over' process could have not taken more than say 24 to 48 hours. Multiple eggs hatching and springing upon their victimes come hosts. The speed at which to overpower the colonist upon ancheron could have been swift and decisive on the xeno's part.
