Engineer to Jockey: “You had Me At Hologram.” Could it be that the Space Jockey and the Engineer beings are two completely different forms of life, who work together in a symbiotic relationship, each having their own brain, and or other respective organs, etc… Two beings that act as one, when necessary and or beneficial. I know this kind of stuff has be touched on, but I couldn’t find a close enough pre-existing topic/thread to add to. If this is the case, maybe all sides of The Great Space Jockey Skeleton Debate can be satisfied. Thoughts? ~N

@Proxy Okay, what about at least...extra-terrestrial slavery, with one of the two beings being the boss. ~N

Space jockey (elephant headed alien in a suit). Engineers - guys in a suit which are threat to both humans and SJ's. Human like appearance (blue guy near the waterfall).
Uncertainty is the only certainty there is, and knowing how to live with insecurity is the only security.

Any official news? Are they actually separate races. I'd like to think they aren't. Engineers=Dirty. Can't wait to see them in action.

Forever War - Just to add, and I have been banging on about it since I joined this site when it began - I'm with you all the way dude - In Alien the JOCKEY IS A SKELETON -ANCIENT REMAINS - Plain and simple - This is the stumbling block I have been finding hard to get past since Ridley announced it was a ..........suit???? (Lucasville). That just stinks of Lindellof injection.

I think the Engineers "wear" the Space Jockeys. Don't know if the suit is sentient or not, but if it is, it helps the engineer willingly. What level of coercion occurs between them is unknown.

Safe? Of course he isn't safe, but he's good!

Work together in a symbiotic relationship seems like a little bit too sunshiny for me.

I think yes, theyre 2 different species, but I don't think it's the kind of relationship the Space Jockeys had in mind beforehand. When I think of the map room, I see places that the Engineers went in the past, we see David in there, piddling around, finding the Earth. To my mind, earthlings are not the first to visit this planet- the hologram log, for lack of a better term, shows running figures that I don't think are human and they may be the Space Jockeys. These ghostly figures don't appear to me to be running off calories, they look like theyre running for their lives. I think the Space Jockeys, at least the ones pictured, were captured by the Engineers and used as unwilling pilots for the Engineers purposes. Probably they were altered to the point of being trapped in a ship, like the one in Alien, with the ship grown around them, unable to free themselves..slave pilots. Meanwhile, the engineers have the mobilty to get into and out of other types of ships they have, slipping easily into the pilots position. This is one of several possible ways that Ridley can get around what I find is a massive glaring FU to continuity...in Alien, that is a skeleton sitting in that chair. It was a skeleton when Alien opened and it's a skeleton now and I dont care what anyone including Riddles himself says NOW about it. If Ridley can pull this off and explain this..cool, I'll give him a shot, otherwise he's gonna be wearing George Lucas' suit and reputation, in my crazed opinion.

FROM THE FAKE SPAIHTS SCRIPT !!! A L I E N H A R V E S T by Jon Spaihts based on characters by Dan O'Bannon and Ronald Schusett darksp8s@gmail.com Quite an experience to live in fear, isn't it? That's what it is to be a slave. --Roy Batty If one took one's eyes off the maddening images on the television, one began to think of other images, of the city one knew and recognized, lived in and loved the way you love a person. --Tom Piazza FADE IN: EXT. PLANET - DAY Wide sky tinted mauve. Below are rollings hills, mustard hued and speckled golden. In the distance are tall crops and a row of extraterrestrial beasts of burden, swinging scythes. Another row of these GRUNTS, which resemble bipedal mules, follows raking the crops into sacks. Two members of another species oversee everything. Standing over fifteen feet tall and wearing simple robes, the GROWERS (i.e., “space jockeys”) occasionally turn their elephantine faces to the grunts. But the growers' attention remains on two humans, FIN and KARIK, in the foreground. FIN The good news is you'll never have to swing a blade; the grunts do the heavy lifting. The bad news is we're responsible for squeezing out more bushels from each acre. KARIK OK. Karik sports a crew cut and looks bewildered. Fin is taller than him and has a beard. FIN Over there, it's like hominy. I've been weighing each stalk, and 2. FIN (CONT'D) based on that, I decide which patches pollinate and which don't. Karik, you getting this? KARIK Do you--can I have some water? FIN Yeah. Hey. Why don't you sit down. Karik staggers, drops to one knee, and Fin steps up to help him. Off to the side, a grey tabby CAT crouches in the grass, stalking something. Her pupils are dilated; her butt wiggles. A grower studies the crops then turns its attention to its feet. There's the cat, with a small orange animal in her mouth. The cat drops her kill at the grower's feet and lets out a little meow. The grower looks delighted and laughs. CUT TO BLACK A beat. We hear a low mechanical moan, wind rushing, then a crash. INT. GROWER'S SHIP - COCKPIT The grower's eyes open, startled. It looks around to determine the source of the noise. EXT. GROWER'S SHIP The ship is a figure eight, two toroids pressed together; the lead toroid is slightly smaller than the rear one. The ship is spiraling out of control into the atmosphere of some planet.
