Unused Prometheus Concepts Reveal Very 'ALIEN-Like' Scenes!

In the [url=/gallery/view/5]Prometheus Artwork Gallery[/url], form the recent uploads yesterday we see some unused concepts for scenes which never made it into the final product. So, the unused concept scenes below are of when David supposedly, or the crew venture into the Juggernaut's pilot room, or the "Orrey" and discover the Engineer cryo chambers. In Prometheus, we see one of these with a live Engineer inside, but in the concepts below - we could have been introduced to some other Engineers int hat room - but not so much alive. Take a look - you'll notice something very interesting. The concepts for the dead Engineers looke almost identical to that of ALIEN, with the Engineer's rib cage bent outward - about the same size as seen in ALIEN. Surely not the size of hole the Deacon causes. It looks as if the other Engineers in this Juggernaut were infected by an Alien, and they were killed when Chestbursters broke their way through their rib cage, bio suit and cryo chamber.

Would you have liked to see this play out in an actual scene in Prometheus? Or are you glad these concepts were never used?

it would've been cool if they'd used the elephantine engineer and explained his back story as a species that intermingled/created human beings. Let's say they met with us and our curious David 8 steals the terraforming technology (fire of the gods) and the engineers go for us. david 8 in turn attempts to kill the engineers with their own bio-mechanical creations! hence creating the alien and infecting their race, ship, or however you want to color it! we would then have a real story - cohesive story!

I find it amusing that the unused concepts would make a better film than the one we saw.

I would love to know why so many things are not in the film. Studio interference? Lindelof, Spaihts or Scott's decision? Maybe the DVD extras will shed light on it. I for one would have enjoyed seeing some of the concepts played out in the movie.

That I am betting that is from the Spaiht period of production. Probably axed when It stopped being a direct prequel.

That is a big point - its I guess saying that the new face hugger shaw baby made the deacon a bigger size - yet another weird decision. I seem to remember one of the bodies piled up that milburn n friend find with a small chest burst too...hmmm I agree allot of the concepts look much more interesting. I also really was hoping the SJ would look more like the alien one.
