MemberOvomorphApril 10, 2017ok, so when the first footage of the Xenomorph was presented at the end of the second trailer i nearly exploded. Im not usually impressed with cgi and actually most of the time poor or excessive cgi is a deal breaker for me. i gotta say though that this is the best ive ever seen as far as creature effects are concerned, just my opinion. I must have watched those last two scenes of the alien at least 50 times in a row on multiple occasions. So when i finally saw the 'Take Me Home' TV spot i immediately registered a difference in the alien between the two previews. Lighting, skin texture, muscle definition, even the background and the ship have been tweaked but most noticeable was the aliens teeth and mouth. The trailer version has more human like blunt teeth while the tv spot has sharper teeth and a mouth more standard of the franchise. Just about any monster in any movie has a sharp vicious looking grill. Rarely, if ever, have i seen a goon with a more human like countenance which is what originally caught my attention in the trailer. Is it just me or is that alot creepier than the typical alien chompers? I really hope that the tv spot was utilizing older material and the theatrical version is as seen in the trailer. Open both videos in different tabs and you can pause them to the exact same frame, toggle between the two and you can clearly see many changes. Which version do you all Prefer?
To me it's always been the 'Human' looking teeth that was always so Creepy and Different...seeing 'Human' teeth in something so absolutely NON-Human, yeah, always loved that detail about it.
I thought the 'improvements' in the trailers were just me, glad to know I was wrong. I thought it was because I watched it originally when really tired, but am impressed with the CGI work!
IN SPACE THERE IS NO WARNING
