MemberOvomorphJune 02, 20121470 Views17 Replieswas that the best design they could come up with?
"Yeah it's got like big tentacles and a mouth like a squid, like sharp teeth and it pulls you in..."
a sane Ridley: "not in my movie thanks, go back to the drawing board"

she was so overwhelmed by peter weylands being there, and the fact that she had other things to worry about and find out abit it may have skipped in her mind...plus she might have been to emotionally scarred by it she didnt want to mention it, plus she thought it was dead in vickers pod, so she was concentrating on more important things...
OWNED ;) jk
Its a robot...ash is a goddamn robot!

@stringer...also, how the hell does she walk after muscle tissue being torn? a few staples wont cut it sorry
Also the medics she attacked, why did they not pursue her? I mean she must have been limping at 1 mile per hour
...tentacles from Planet X...Thanks for that Ridley

Could be that they looked at various forms of life on earth & saw that a gerbil just wouldn't do it

Haha yes! And how about this;
Damon; ''And, and in the end a teenage mutant xeno bursts out of the engineer, with, um... like a shark mouth and.... cone-shaped head...''
Ridley: *epic facepalm*

If nobody saw correctly it was almost a proto-facehugger being....with it putting the egg into the engineer and all that jazz...
Its a robot...ash is a goddamn robot!

i was really amazed that Shaw has this 'baby' but fails to mention the horrific and super extraordinary situation she had just been through.
''oh hey guys, ha ha, nearly forgot. FYI, you won't believe what just happened to me on the way here''....''i just gave birth to an alien..''
''yeah, i know CRAZY right, considering i had sex only 10 BLOODY HRS AGO!!''
''.........BTW..i left it in Vickers Pod''....
no mention whatsoever.

@Gary Watt - Thats exactly what i said, its a giant face hugger essentially, the first of them all!! Its actually a really clever idea!! Screw the haters!
Its a robot...ash is a goddamn robot!

you would bang vickers though i mean come one.... ;) plus they thought that everything down there was dead, they only later found out about the mens fate and the fact there is things down there!
Its a robot...ash is a goddamn robot!

Hello
After it landed on the Engineer it was pretty clear to see, in my eyes anyway, that it was a massive facehugger type creature.

funny i read testicles at first...and I thought WTF?...and i mean Ciger and his art nothing would surprise me?....lol....that would have been bizarre....a testicle monster.....;)

Had an Alien baby, got stapled, and for a brief moment she's struggling to walk, and then in a blink she's repelling down the side of the ship like she's training for Rainbow Six: Special Ops!!
got no problem with the creature, cos by then i was busy head scratching.
The climax with the 'Shaw he's coming to kill you' bit.
lack of tension, over in a blink. left me with an empty feeling.

Hello
@Xeno-Jockey, yes, most definately.
This had tentacles but probably the same amount of facehugger legs. Not that really different, just bigger.
At first I thought I saw an actual human shape but as the scene went on I realised there was not one. Grabbing at the Engineer so it could 'plant' the seed. As soon as the deed was done it just lay there. Cannot remember if it was there in the final scene when the Engineer gave birth.

@xeno jokey - Sorry but if you think giant squid monsters are a good idea then you are taking the mick!!!!!
Why was it squidy??? Why did it get so big?? Why was it implanting like a facehugger???
There are so many unanswered questions in this film that are key to the plot it's lunacy!!

giant squids..wow..still cant believe Ridley would stoop this low..Giger didnt have shit to do with this movie, I dont even need to ask, I know
Looking forward to the adventures of Space Girl and Android Head, Heroes of the Galaxy.....just shows most directors have 1 fluke then live off of that...and after that you don't have to try hard
