If you've not seen it yet - or completely missed it - new images including the original look for Fifield's later cut form have appeared in Cinefex, and posted here: [url]http://www.prometheus-movie.com/news/246[/url] So what's everyone's thoughts on this decision? did we end up with a better mutation, something that didn't give in to looking too near to xeno DNA too soon in the film? Or do you think that the original would have made a far more interesting inclusion and further progress the storyline and the role of the black liquid? Do we wish we had seen this played out: [img]http://i.imgur.com/C0Plt.gif[/img] We may do in the Blu-ray yet perhaps?

The *more-mutated* version of Fifield is superior to the one that ended up in the first theatrical cut. The crab pose was creepy, but after that... meh... I'm utterly apathetic about the mayhem that he created in the "garage." The time should have been dedicated to the *real* story.

I think an alien instead of a zombie would have been better. The cgi probably looked too cheesy, so zombie Fifield won out. However, the people looking for a xeno would have been happier without the zombie. Besides, RS said there are too many zombie movies. So, why a zombie?
