In what sense? I dont understand what it is your referring to.

MemberOvomorphMay-20-2012 5:21 PMI have to admit that I've not seen Independance Day! But the similarity between the xeno in the mural and the ID alien is somewhat striking... But in a strangely nice way. Still desperate to figure out the meaning of the mural though. The next 12 days are gonna be tough.

MemberOvomorphMay-20-2012 4:50 PMI was going to say those tentacles on that creature right above look very much like the creature from Independence Day and you have it there! Good!

MemberOvomorphMay-20-2012 5:00 PMBig Dave,
I think that picture at the end is going to very close. Original? probably not so much...but what can they do? Just about everything has been done by now, At least the creature does not resemble a steroid pumping close encounters grey alien.
I am more worried about the convenient battle between the Blue guy and the creature. I do not want that to morph into some sort of Godzill VS. Mothra disaster.

MemberOvomorphMay-20-2012 5:08 PMI think from the trailers, especially the last one showing it wrapping up Mr blue and still sending out a tentacle for Shaw that it has plenty of tentacles to spare.

Uncertainty is the only certainty there is, and knowing how to live with insecurity is the only security.
BigDave
MemberDeaconMay-20-2012 5:04 PMI guess it depends on how much of the creature has Tentacles...
If its like the Independance Day one then i guess thats not so bad, only again its not orginal really....
I just hope its not more tentacle than none tentacle i.e like the Mountains of Madness Shoggoth.... but then the so called remake of that movie has been put on hold because of Prometheus...
I loved the Xeno for being Orginal, like i loved the Cloverfield monster as orginally it was also going to have influences from Cthulhu.
The person i spoke to who said he saw concept work etc ages ago, showed me a image that looked just like Independance Day Alien minus tentacles.
And two people i spoke to who apparently seen the movie said Shaws Squid grows into something that Alien fans would be happy with and does resemple Shaws Baby but also we would see a lot of the Orginal 1979 Xeno in how it looks.....
Guess that means Independance Day guy then lol...

MemberOvomorphMay-20-2012 5:12 PMBig Dave can you screen cap the last picture you had along side the Xeno Mural? Can we see any tentacle like things on the Xeno in the mural?

MemberOvomorphMay-20-2012 5:27 PMHey all,
regardless of the aesthetics of the creature, if it can park a space jockey on the floor then this thing must be badass!

Great pic!
Safe? Of course he isn't safe, but he's good!
BigDave
MemberDeaconMay-20-2012 5:39 PMWell yes the Mural thingy does have what also look like tentacles near its mouth pretty much simular to ID Alien...
The thing we have seen in spoilers looks massive and its hard to work out how many tentacles it has....
But there are 4 stages, if we assume Shaws Baby is stage 1 then we have two missing stages and if we assume Holloway Eye Parasite is Stage 1 we still have one more...
So we do not know yet.... if Cuddles grown up, implants something into a Host could it be that host that then gives rise to the Organism that i had described to me and thus maybe simular to ID Alien Exosuit?

Yes I did. I read all Arthur C. Clarke's work.
Yet I have to say 3001 was interesting for Franks reappearing and the Moon as a repository for all that is Dark and grim in Human History [the Vault].
Still, my favourit SciFi Novel is Dune and it's sequels.

MemberOvomorphMay-20-2012 7:12 PMyou say it was "time for a change" but CLEARLY as Shaw Proves out right by looking up at it, it is NOT a MURAL it is moving and IMO is part of a Large defense system all over that cave involving XENOMORPHS as we knew them in Alien, and I mean anyone that saw that image of that thing and does not admit that's a XENO is in denial IMO...and I am in fact saying it is CLEARLY a Xenomorph, Clearly Moving and/or coming to life and CLEARLY that thing is far far far far far more than just a mural and then there is the very and completely ill logical nature of that argument and thought. NO race of beings of the type that it appears the Engineers are is wasting their time on the cave Decor in their most important and "holiest of holies" for when MOM comes to visit....there's just NO WAY...remember you heard it from me first so you can come back and lace into me when we find out how wrong i was or....be ready for Spartacus to say..."I Told You So" !!!

I wondered about that too... Great piece of music though.
Maybe Holloway (if, and only if he's the SJ, as many people seem to think) reverts back somehow, or regains a bit of humanity and recognises Shaw before he dies. Although I'll admit I would need to take that cheese with a heavily buttered cracker.

MemberOvomorphMay-21-2012 6:36 AMCameo appearances are never credited normally ... only at the end of the movie itself ... ;) ...
I remember watching Robin Hood (kostner version) and Sean Connery was at the end of the movie ... total surprise ... the whole cinema lost breath for a split second ... he wasn't not listed until end of movie ...
[b]From IMDB:[/b]
[quote]Why it is that, occasionally, well-known actors have significant roles in movies but are not listed in the credits?
Well-known actors have made cameo appearances in a movie and their name is not included in the credits to avoid spoiling the surprise or drawing too much attention to what is essentially a very minor (but often pivotal) role.
Sometimes the missing credit is the result of a billing dispute: a big-name actor makes an appearance in the film and, rather than getting a minor or non-prominent credit, may prefer to take no credit at all.[/quote]
