@ Polygonmonkey this is an amazing article! I LOVED it! Thanks for posting it! Ron Cobb's tedious attention to all those icons from the beginning made the movie MORE than just "another" scifi movie. It's those small details that give a "rabid" fanbase the meat it needs to chew on in between releases. It's important to make EVERYTHING mean something.

Oh man, I can't describe how much I LOVE this article! Thank you for sharing this! I've always loved the signage of the Nostromo for some reasons, and was immensely pleased when they angled for a.similar look of things on the Prometheus. Ron Cobb's work is phenomenal, and this piece just made me love it all the more.
