Is there anything else we can take from the deleted scene video? - Is it filling

I am glad to notice that there was a plot, dialogue and some sort of logic consequentiality before the theatrical cut was made.

Looked pretty interesting, had to watch it without sound due to being in a computer lab. Have to watch again when i get home or perhaps not due to wanting to see all deleted scenes at once :)

Yeah, they obviously knew about the giant squid being onboard. It seems that Weyland and/or Vickers wanted to take it back for the bio-weapons division.

I just can't stand that Holloway...They just found an unknown alien species and he's calling the whole thing a failure and starts drinking himself lazarus??? And he's now constantly arguing with Shaw and stuff. What a... ah forget it.

Possibly, there might be another sequence where Shaw is told that Cuddles is still alive and being kept inside the Med Room. That would better explain her curiosity when she peeps through the window after she boards the crashed life-boat.

thx for the link MVMNT!

There going to be 40 minutes - ok now my interest levels are rising a bit! That 10 minutes was actually interesting in bits - although most of it was a bit bland - theres some bits there that would add to the film - sweet! Although that bit were they start kissing made me squirm a bit! Some of it made me hate Halloway more but at teh same time he actually brings up questions that make me like him more for the first time :O ! I wonder if the elder scenes are part of them - as Ridley is correctly redesigning them completely I hear? Ah man they soo need to do a DC and get it out fast - wanaa see if this can become almost a classic - must admit I was hoping to see milburn and fifield getting off there nuts to explain the hammerpede part :S ....

My favorite is really the scene with Fifield and Milburn when they discover the 'Alien Cocoon' on the ground.. that begs a whole new set of questions! And also, Holloway comes across as even more of an ass, haha.

40mins , if true, can explain a whoooole lot. Can't wait!!

@ Chris, ain't that the truth. He is now my least favourite alien-franchise character of all time. Congratulations Hollow Way...

the DISCOVERED SKIN SCENE alone suggests that 'something has already taken place' and some THING has already GROWN before Millburn and Mohawk are 'adjusted' ... is there a massive missing narrative thread/eradication here? Holloway's, "Remember, we were supposed to TALK TO THEM," is intriguing, and yes he truly is shown to be even more c**tish than his brief-er role in the theatrical cut.

Is it not the hammerpede skin? I assume they molted as they grew.

Hammerpede should have been MUCH BIGGER if it had already 'shed such a topologically vast skin to grow', no? :)

That has to be the Hammerpede's skin. Finding the fresh skin probably contributed to Milburn's confidence when encountering the Hammerpede. He was able to anticipate that live alien lifeforms were present in the structure. That doesn't explain why he approached the extraterrestrial life so poorly, but it might explain why he wasn't overly surprised or startled by finding a living creature.

Yeah when Vickers mentions the "Thing squealing next door" or when David is there to hear Shaw talk about the world creation story "The people asked the sun, why did you make me" and he repeats those lines to Charlie later in context to his own creation. We also see how angry Charlie is and why. These scenes REALLY tie the movie together. Those were all issues I had with the movie, it seemed broken. I really hate they can't just release a movie properly in theatres...

The skin found actually is the perfect size for the hammerpede, if you go by the shed skins of real snakes.

I hear that ten-minute VIMEO is about to be 'removed from the internet', so I've taken down my post ref'ing it - in case you were wondering. :)

The link seems to be down now... Shame i never saw it, it appears that many of these cuts actually are the reasons for a number of the plot holes. So they not so much plot holes.... just holes in the actual film because of the cuts made.

This just made me love Shaw and hate Holloway. What an ASS !!! But I like the emotion in Noomis slap x2. . .so sad the engineer scenes weren't here :'(

@NoxWord: Good to see you back! Only just noticed your comment and I'm thinking it also explains how or why Vickers isn't making it into the big Life Boat, (which contains the MedPod) before Janek gives order to eject it. Nice little gap filled there, well spotted...
