Move to the Spoilers if you think this is where it belongs... But so as to avoid such, i dont want this thead to be posting images of Cuddles... I just want to touch upon how Ridley said the Xeno had been done to death, and it was time for a change.... Now the Xeno was Original, many creatures in many movies have kind of ripped off the Xeno to some extent even as far as Pumpkin Head. But would a creature that is either mainly like a Squid, or some kind of Squid looking Xeno really be Orginal.... As the Squid/Tentacle monster/alien been done to death more so.... From Mountains of Madness to many other movies inc The Faculty Crikes we assume that Cuddles plus Engineer = Xeno.... but would Cuddles in a Suit just be a Dalek lol [img]http://images.wikia.com/tardis/images/d/df/True_Dalek_Form.jpg[/img] I am just hoped for a bit more you see, because while Face Hugger and Xeno was orginal, and Snakepede or whatever they are are also kind off Orginal (or maybe not when we see bigger picture). Is going the route of done and dusted tentacle monsters something thats been done to death more so.... Looking at a image that i posted ages ago when someone told me the Xeno looks like this but with 4 tentacles that he saw on set..... The image was not far off these guys from Independance Day.... [img]http://watchplayread.com/files/2011/03/Independence-Day-film-also-known-by-its-promotional-abbreviation-ID4-.jpg[/img] Which funny enough, fits the description i got from that person, who said it was a cross between a Xeno Queen and the Prawn Things from District 9 with tentacles.... Which come to think about it is pretty much Independance Day Alien suit looked a lot like..... So even if its like that and not the many other simular tentacle monster flicks, its hardly Orginal? Mind you the Saucer at the Water Fall Scene is near enough the same as the Independance Day ones... Maybe indeed the Proto Xeno is based on Space Jockeys, in that what we get is Independance Day Alien and in his suit a Space Smurf..... so maybe this movie is the prequel to Independance Day lol.....

They always said Krang was an alien, i guess this thread is where Prometheus and TMNT universe meet. [url=http://s14.postimage.org/qn2704sz5/krang46.jpg][img]http://s14.postimage.org/qn2704sz5/krang46.jpg[/img][/url]

I have to admit that I've not seen Independance Day! But the similarity between the xeno in the mural and the ID alien is somewhat striking... But in a strangely nice way. Still desperate to figure out the meaning of the mural though. The next 12 days are gonna be tough.

I was going to say those tentacles on that creature right above look very much like the creature from Independence Day and you have it there! Good!

Big Dave, I think that picture at the end is going to very close. Original? probably not so much...but what can they do? Just about everything has been done by now, At least the creature does not resemble a steroid pumping close encounters grey alien. I am more worried about the convenient battle between the Blue guy and the creature. I do not want that to morph into some sort of Godzill VS. Mothra disaster.

I think from the trailers, especially the last one showing it wrapping up Mr blue and still sending out a tentacle for Shaw that it has plenty of tentacles to spare.

I guess it depends on how much of the creature has Tentacles... If its like the Independance Day one then i guess thats not so bad, only again its not orginal really.... I just hope its not more tentacle than none tentacle i.e like the Mountains of Madness Shoggoth.... but then the so called remake of that movie has been put on hold because of Prometheus... I loved the Xeno for being Orginal, like i loved the Cloverfield monster as orginally it was also going to have influences from Cthulhu. The person i spoke to who said he saw concept work etc ages ago, showed me a image that looked just like Independance Day Alien minus tentacles. And two people i spoke to who apparently seen the movie said Shaws Squid grows into something that Alien fans would be happy with and does resemple Shaws Baby but also we would see a lot of the Orginal 1979 Xeno in how it looks..... Guess that means Independance Day guy then lol...

Big Dave can you screen cap the last picture you had along side the Xeno Mural? Can we see any tentacle like things on the Xeno in the mural?

Hey all, regardless of the aesthetics of the creature, if it can park a space jockey on the floor then this thing must be badass!

Well yes the Mural thingy does have what also look like tentacles near its mouth pretty much simular to ID Alien... The thing we have seen in spoilers looks massive and its hard to work out how many tentacles it has.... But there are 4 stages, if we assume Shaws Baby is stage 1 then we have two missing stages and if we assume Holloway Eye Parasite is Stage 1 we still have one more... So we do not know yet.... if Cuddles grown up, implants something into a Host could it be that host that then gives rise to the Organism that i had described to me and thus maybe simular to ID Alien Exosuit?
