the Engineer ship control room, when David starts up the holographic playback, didn't look bad ass in 3D to you?

 

One of the most idm things I have ever experienced on film.

 

Truly idm as fuk!!!!

 

Was alright i guess :D Needed more blue aliens, sam worthington.

dont forget guys that we already got a really satisfying hard R rated scifi film a couple of years back, District 9. To me that budget of movie has a much greater potential of being good and authentic than a movie at $200million

I walked the fuck out of MTM, still have yet to see that last scene everyone tells me was worth sitting through the most boring space flight film that I can remember. It took them forever to get to Mars. So I left.

 

The flute playing is what ruined it for you? Come on man. You have read enough about Ancient Egyptians to know that sound and chanting was a very important part of the priests and priestesses lives. I felt that it drew from that historical knowledge therefore making it a great detail. Gave me the good chills.

 

The map looked incredible in 3D.

a cool place to be for a couple hours, even if it didn't make that much sense.

 

i give it four out of five misshapen data heads.

lol the flute. forgot about the flute!

through the years, a man peoples a space with images of provinces, kingdoms, mountains, bays, ships, islands, fishes, rooms, tools, stars, horses and people. shortly before his death, he discovers that the patient labyrinth of lines traces the image of his own face.

i mean im cool with the idea of Alien music, but a piccolo style irish esque flute melody as some kind of ignition sequence was just absurdly ham fisted and bad. If they wanted to do some kind of music, why not make it look or 'alien' ? I mean even the way the computer starts in that hilarious movie Virtuosity had about 10x more creativity than Damon's zelda reference.

Edited by Awepittance

we came from the Engineers, why wouldn't they make music like we do? Why would it have to be synthesized music? I love the first Zelda.

flol!

Engineers are us and we are them DNA wise as well?

" Last law bearing means that any reformer or Prophet will be a subordinate of the Holy Prophet (saw) and no new Messenger and Prophet with a new religion, book or decree will come after him. Everything from him will be under the banner of Islam only."

Obviously the engineers should of had to play dubstep to activate their space computers. Dropping the bass is the final evolution of music

the best bit in Alien Resurrection is when Ron Pearlman says,

 

"Earth: what a shithole."

 

I liked when the captain(?) was on deck when everyone was evacuating and one of the aliens got inside a pod with other grunts and took off. He blew it up and stood there saluting and an alien came up from behind and jacked up his head... He then stood there staring at his medula oblongata for a while!

glossary

 

The Pyramid - The name of the structure where nearly everything goes down. It was originally designed to look more pyramid-like, but became more dome-like in reference to some of H.R. Giger's Alien designs for "egg-shaped mounds." The book contains one of the earlier, unused pieces of concept-art from when it was still a pyramid, which reveals an entirely different and more civilized vision for the landscape of LV-223.

The Engineers - Everyone already knows them as the aliens who created everything, but it's worth noting this name comes from Spaihts' original script for the film. Their physical design, particularly their head, was, "inspired by Michelangelo's David, Elvis Presley and the the Statue of Liberty." The mandate for their exosuit was, "Russian cosmonaut meets Samurai."

The Ampule Chamber - AKA the Room With the Giant Head. Scott's cue to the design team was to treat it like a cathedral, though without any clear ties to known religions. The murals on the ceiling depict the "Creation, Armageddon, and Judgment cycle."

The Ampule - These are the containers found within the ceremonial chamber. 70 ceramic Ampules with lids were crafted and carved with alien text by hand. Note: what oozes out of the Ampules after they're activated is referred to as the "black slime."

Babyhead - The production nickname for what Fifield turns into after being infected by the black slime. The original designs had him transforming into something remarkably more alien, as partially seen below.

prometheus-babyhead-design.jpg

Hammerpede - A production nickname for the snake-like creature that evolves from the black slime inside the Ampules. Its design was inspired by translucent sea creatures and it was built practically to be used on set. In fact, when it breaks Millburn's arm, Ridley Scott was operating the cables inside it.

The Juggernaut - The production name for the Engineer's spaceship. The design had to be modified from the crashed ship seen in Alien because the team modeled it and found out that its original horseshoe shape meant that it wouldn't roll like the film required it to, so its ends were brought in a bit to give it more of a donut shape.

The Orrery - The holographic navigation system David activates inside the Juggernaut's hibernation chamber.

Trilobite - The team's name for the impregnated creature Shaw removes via Med Pod-assisted cesarean. Animatronic versions of both its embryonic and grown forms were created for the film, with its final look being created by famed conceptual designer Neville Page.

prometheus-trilobite.jpg

The Deacon - Ridley Scott's own name for the offspring of the Trilobite and the Engineer, who dubbed it so because the final design - which includes elements from Shaw, the Engineer and the Trilobite - looked, "like a Bishop's mitre, the evil Deacon's pointed hat." Two versions of it were built: One for inside the birthing sac within the Engineer, and one for when it stands up.

That is a great view on what happens in the film and theories which make alot of sense. Well worth a read.
