[img]http://farm3.staticflickr.com/2805/10779147655_c997a84e41_c.jpg[/img] The image above is one of the concept designs of the egg silo, for what was supposed to be THE Alien prequel, before Lindelof was hired and did a re-write. If Ridley did decide to do a film about the SJ from ALIEN and the cargo of eggs, would he use parts of Spaihts' original screenplay and the initial design concepts, or would that conflict with the PROMETHEUS story? I'm interested to read your opinion/s...

The poster was good though!

Don't think it would necessarily conflict with Prometheus. Did you notice the figure laying among the eggs? Dead center, near the bottom.

I've seen that somewhere before and I F***ing love it! I would love to get a little more Alien-y in the sequel.

I've never seen that before, thanks Necronom. What a superb picture. I too think a full-on Giger tableaux should be in the next film. Complete with all the Necronomicon phantoms.

Oh my God yes! Some Giger Necronom xeno-variants would be amazing! There were een some winged abominations as I recall! Not sure if I want to go that far...well...maybe...

During the 3D scanned image of the Juggernaut as the crew passes through the ship it is evident that the storage for the canisters is in the arms of the ship and that the center is the operations...The derelict in Alien, something dug it's way down underneath the ship and we get a huge cavern complex built for holding those eggs, not originally part of the derelict? It could fit with Prometheus if their ships can nano build to fractal expansion or even dimensionally be expanded like a portal.

Once entered the environment was supposed to change. Release the nano goo! which first flows through the worms then to the creek out side the door. The crew didn't know if it could be water or martian piss cause it was -20 oC In the un-released footage Milburn already finds a critter which at some point also get some Goo. The melting of the mural is significant also...Image of an engineer and space devil reclined in humility is vaporised into the air like an initiation for the like of these guys from Dr Who... http://youtu.be/mZcSW5Cqz3g . Perhaps these engineers have been sacrificed like the guy in the beginning of the film but in this case it's a booby trap that has a darker reasoning. The giant head statue being in honor of the guy who gets beheaded by the door. The wall with the greeen crystal in front of it is a sealed wall to another passageway, perhaps one that goes directly to a juggernaut. That green crystal probably shoots a laser that helps create a foreshadowing of the facehugger birthed from the crusified deacon that made love to the Cosmic vagina

@Major Noob; quote "Did you notice the figure laying among the eggs? Dead center, near the bottom." Yes I did notice it. When you zoom in, it is clear that it is a humanoid, maybe an engineer. I will sort that out and post it for you all.

The poster was good though!

Hey Necro, looks like he could be being absorbed/morphed?

Could be Lone. He looks like his hands are tied behind his back? Were there more like him down there, and they've already morphed? OR, if a queen did lay the eggs down there, maybe it was he who gave birth to her?

I think its Shaw with David on his way to torment/ impregnate her. The scene in Spaihts' script.

The movie will do best to be gripping and a very personal story.

Very interesting find Necronom it raises new questions about who that dead fellow is in the egg chamber.

The Anunnaki were on the earth in those days--and also afterward--when the sons of God went to the daughters of humans and had children by them. They were the heroes of old, mighty men of high reno

@Anunnaki; Yes it does. Now, i'm not convinced that he is an engineer, as he looks too small conpaired to the eggs. So who is he?

Ah..I think it is supposed to be Holloway. Remember in Spaihts script he falls into the egg silo and gets hugged.

The only connection i make with that Image and Spaights Script is that it may be the scene where David infects Shaw with a Face Huger and leaves her there after she is unconscious and Face Hugged. You see where Holloway got infected the Organism that got to him was on the ceilings in like honey comb structure. Not from Eggs on the floor. You also note there is a crew member alone on the one walk way walking away from the Chamber. This must be David. But looking at the face of the body on the Egg chamber floor it looks Engineer, but then the size of the body is much smaller, indeed about the same as the Human Crew Member in the back ground which for the body to appear same size in foreground means must be smaller than 6ft.

Also i dont think we need to do a movie about the Space Jockey, you see from Alien here is what we got... 1) A Horseshoe Space Craft, Crash Landed, with a Dead Skeletal looking remains of its Pilot with a hole in his chest area. They spot a burnt hole in the floor next to the chair, one member of the crew gets down to the lower chamber and we see a Cargo Hold of Eggs. From Alien to Aliens etc we find out what these Eggs contain, and so we can assume one of these Face Hugers got to the Pilot at some stage. It would appear that this would have occurred at some point during flight. And the Pilot let of a Warning SOS. PROMETHEUS Shows us same kind of Ship and confirms they are used as Bio Warfare Cargo Ships. We are shown the Space Jockey could be a Engineer in a Bio Mechanical Space Suit (yes there is size difference). But the drafts had them to be same size as Space Jockey from Alien. These clues then add to Alien that indeed the Space Jockey may had at some point got Face Hugged while he had his Mask off Maybe? Maybe most likely when he inspected the Cargo Hold after a containment warning went off, or he could have been wondering around unaware that one of the Cargo had got lose. This scene or similar is the only thing that could be added to explain what happened, by the actual events but its not enough to base a movie on... Ridley has also explained off film what happened and that indeed the Space Jockey/Derelict and Engineers/Juggernaught are all related to each other. The Space Jockey was a Space Suit, and the Derelict was transporting a Cargo of Eggs, when the Cargo had got compremised and one of them got to the Space Jockey.. Knowing his Cargo and himself had been compromised and knowing his fate, the Space Jockey set course for the nearest baron moon he could Quarantine the Cargo.... but during the final stages of this the ship Crash Landed, maybe either during being Chest Busted or just as this was about to happen.... At some point a SOS Warning was set off, be that automated, or set by the pilot before or just after the crash. So we know what happened, only thing we could add is show the Derelict being loaded with its Cargo or show how it got onto the Derelict. Show the Space Jockey get face hugged i.e where was he and how did it happen, show him then get back into his seat and set a course to LV 426 and activate the SOS... Then show the Crash and finally the Chest Buster Scene. But is that necessary, does it show us what we do not all ready know?

Yes I and many other members on here already know that BigDave. What we don't know is the SJ's story. HIS story. And what is the origin of those eggs? Wouldn't you like to know?

Well thats what i am trying to say.... That Particular Space Jockey, maybe we will never be shown.... But as far as his Race Goes well thats what Prometheus was trying to do. The drafts had the Engineers as almost twice the size we actually got to see them as and this was a MAJOR Disappointment. Do i want to see Ridleys explanation as to why the Space Jockey was much taller, and by that i dont mean that Space Jockey but that is there another fraction of beings who are 12-15ft tall.... Yes! Would i like to see where the Eggs come from, well i want to see more clues but still keep some Ambiguity well maybe not so much, but not a spoon feed Xeno fest like Spaights draft was. For me the Mystery of who these Engineers are, there connection to LV 426 Space Jockey and who created them is the bigger question. It would be nice to maybe find out some clues as to how come another ship was carrying Eggs and not Urns and where those Eggs was coming from or going to, yes that would be interesting. It could be simply answered by David translating some information, or indeed being told by some being they found, that the Engineers or Fraction of them had a Bio Weapon that was hard to contain and control and that they had tried to re-weaponize the Organism for safer storage and more uses, by using the Creation Tool (Sacrificial Goo) to perform this..... but ultimately messing with the Bio Weapon in any way proved a risky undertaking and one that saw off those Engineers. A explanation like that would explain things a bit and keep some ambiguity.
