Without doubt one of these would have been useful in the temple

you know, to me, if you look at the end of the GIF as it goes backwards, it looks to me as if there is two different things going on. At first it looks like just Shaw. Then watch the end of the GIF, it looks like the tentacle thingy looks like it has the "blue guy". Like its going after both of them and the blue guy is the slower one. Just a thought. I have been away for awhile.


MentosMay 20, 2012
[b]@bigbirdjimmy[/b] Thanks! Yep, I can definitely see the engineer entangled in that mess of tentacles. I wonder if this creature is CG or practical? :S

OutlanderMay 20, 2012
Hmmm. Cthulu comes to mind.
It definitely has the engineer in its grip. I am really hoping Shaw's baby is not coming to rescue her. I couldn't take that.


bigbirdjimmyMay 20, 2012
Well Mentos, it looks to me that it is not CG.
@outlander, it doesn't look like its saving Shaw, it grabs her left leg. Who knows what it wants to do. To me, it looks like it just wants whatever it can get.
It could happen after the scene when where Shaw is on the ground and the SJ is standing in front of her. She runs away and then bam. There is a third.

MentosMay 20, 2012
[b]@bigbirdjimmy[/b] I hope it is! The smaller incarnation of this beasty is definitely practical, as well as the space cobra. So hopefully this will be too!

alphatechsungunMay 20, 2012
the alien that wiped out the space jockey race..........possible. cool. i rekon we'll get the whole movie before it comes out at this rate.

WindoodMay 20, 2012
i'm going to try and be optimistic, but that tentacled thing (admittedly its a tiny gif and unclear) looks on a par with some of the worst crap i ever saw on 70s doctor who (and that's the gold standard for horseshit effects).
hope it looks better onscreen.

@Mentos
I guess this puts some of our previous theories to bed dosn't it? ! : )
I just don't know what to expect anymore

SaintsSinphonyMay 20, 2012
and I haven't read anyone's account of the engineer getting eaten by the tentacle monster so I think all of these so called prescreenings are fibbing

MentosMay 20, 2012
[b]@SaintsSinphony[/b] It does put a black mark against that prescreening! Hmm, I'm wondering what to expect now...
abordoliMay 20, 2012
It has been 100% verified (by Fox executives) that absolutely no external screenings have taken place. Anything that you've read is fictitious and used to draw attention to a site or an individual wanting of attention.

MentosMay 20, 2012
[b]@abordoli[/b] Its interesting that you say that because although the [b]#areyouseeingthis[/b] seemed somewhat reasonable, the [b]'twitter girl'[/b] leak over at PrometheusNews really did seem like a traffic-gathering hoax to me.
GhorgulMay 20, 2012
Haha, Guillermo del Toro was so right!
It resembles a Shoggoth very much, judging from these pictures!
Giger's DreamMay 20, 2012
I really hope they didnt fall back on one of the hokey early Alien creature designs...trying to remain optimistic

reb1138May 20, 2012
And here I thought the Engineers were these magnificent supermen that can't be killed, seems like they're more vulnerable than I presumed

Myrddin365May 20, 2012
Looks like the engineer got [url=http://www.prometheus-movie.com/community/forums/topic/5067]naked[/url] here
Safe? Of course he isn't safe, but he's good!

GavinMay 20, 2012
So we have at least two alien antagonists, interesting indeed - doesn't look like the Xeno from Alien though does it, seems like bye-bye proto-xeno theories...
david8emotionalMay 20, 2012
It looks alot like this

JuxtaposeMay 20, 2012
....well I am sure this thing must have a head and if it's got a head it almost certainly has a mouth....and inside that mouth rows of razer sharp fangs...!!..well I hope so!

Myrddin365May 20, 2012
"indescribable thing vaster than any subway train - a shapeless congeries of protoplasmic bubbles, faintly self-luminous, and with myriads of temporary eyes forming and un-forming as pustules of greenish light all over the tunnel-filling front that bore down upon us" that's how lovecraft describes the Shoggoth. The critter looks like the pics of Shoggoth, but doesn't match my understanding of this description.
Safe? Of course he isn't safe, but he's good!

filthyrich1975May 20, 2012
the guy amongst the mass of tentacles is mr weyland (genetically changed)he was the one shoving shaw in the trailer,the engineer never boards the prometheus. why would he need to.the leaked movie screening said this. it isnt an engineer

Mking20May 20, 2012
what makes you think it's Weyland? There was another post somewhere that said that since weyland is old, the aliens have no reason to infect him.

BigDaveMay 20, 2012
Well i spoke to someone who told me about the creature and i posted it on here days prior to that image...
He claims some of those so called leakes are fake, but the Twitter Girl has got some right but not explained it right, she either as a none Sci Fi fan descipes things wrong or she heard it off someone else and so interpret some parts wrong or was just not paying any real attention.
This scene is potentially before this one...
[img]http://img.gawkerassets.com/img/17mqg5y85nsajgif/original.gif[/img]
I have not been told that, i just see the Engineer in the Tenticle Attack scene, the scene of him holding Shaw by throat and running after her he is not burnt at all.
This shot above he is.... maybe the Cuddles has sprayed him with Acid, maybe Engineer had managed to get Cuddles off him but got Acid attack for his troubles?

Id Rather Be Eatin Something ElseMay 20, 2012
It does look like s bigger version of the facehugger but more tentacle-like! Wow, a extremely larhe facehugger sort of alien beast!
Would be a bit bifferent I suppose. I hope they don't make too much like Alien but just enough so that we get the so called 'DNA message'!

YES IT DOES!!!!! Akira rules

Mr.JMay 20, 2012
The Engineer pushes her to the wall, as we see above, she falls...as we see in the trailer, and she opens the door in utter panic to kill him, the door opens and there is Shaws baby....gets hold of the Engineer and does what it does to him, pretty basic set up there in that scene..

shambsMay 20, 2012
so the Engineer is being attacked by the Shoggoth / Akira Monster xp
Thanks for the news @Mentos
