Merc firing rifle in star map room

MemberOvomorphMay 23, 20121031 Views26 RepliesThere is some new footage of Shaw, Ford, and the red haired merc in the Star MAp room. The Merc yells "Move!" to shaw and fires off a couple of rounds at an unseen target (probably an Engineer - as Merc is looking up at a target), while Ford stands transfixed. (Looks like a continuation or different camera angle of the Ford "seizure/trance" scene we saw a few months ago). Pretty cool, and adds fuel to the specualtion of the number of visits to the temple/ship and who makes the trips.

Nobody had to tell Shaw twice did they? She is beating feet in that clip. Head down and vac-ating!
Like I probably would be too.
I agree though. I think there are MANY trips into the temple. Why go so far just to get one walk-through, right?

In terms of the that looking up with Ford, maybe its just another cobrahugger but from a different angle, like above them on the ceiling maybe (facehuggers can go on ceilings too) or maybe its the hammerpede which may not be the cobrahugger and something we havent seen yet. I doubt its an engineer I would expect them to appear at that point in the film yet (excluding the beginning)

Oh you mean from 1:10-1:11? It actually sounds to me like he is yelling "No!" and not "move". Maybe one of the crew just got murdered in a grisly way.

If you slowdown or pause the clip at the right second you see it's an engineer that is walking towards Ford and Merc is shooting at it. You can see the right hand of the engineer.

I think this is what Fords in store for...

I take it Ford wont be in the film very long then if that is the case. She doesnt seem to be in many scenes anyway.

also, just after that scene when david is in the map room, look to the back right of the scene and you see the big blue dude walking away or around...tis wierd :) but AMAZING!!! CANT WAIT!!!
Its a robot...ash is a goddamn robot!

@aintnozeno...is that Shaw? ive yet to see a clean look at that characters face.
i cant get past the thought that Ford's an android. her "function" is very much like one an android would have : "help the crew adjust to recovering from cryosleep", or something of that nature, unless the staff got it wrong on the cast page.
the way she's standing there, she doesnt even look frightened, just paralyzed, and twitching. nobody else is having that problem. she also has that pale face, chiseled face and precise, boring haircut like david does.

lol Big Dave, love the splat there, I need to check out that game!
Oh, and I too clearly hear MOVE

My take on Ford is she is paralyzed with fear. That would be Lambert form Alien.
As to the "merc" he seems to be shooting at something big judging by the angle of his weapon.
Don't think it's a little fellow.

The Scene where David is in the hall way and he is watching the holographic Engineers run at him... I think they are chasing the human hologram. if you look at how the engineers run, it doesn't match the other hologram.

@seagraves...search "human already on the planet" for an in depth discussion about that topic.
