That is only because you, like most others, lack the capability to see things that are implied. rather you need it to be fully presented to you up front.Mr.K. said:
Automated Operating table...
Only a handful where made... ever.
Shaw states this when we are first shown the table, and also questions why such a device is in the small personal quarters.
It is implied, because of the rarity and capability of this device, that it most likely is there to serve Mr. Weyland in order to extend his live so that he may encounter the 'engineers'. As such, a very rare, very expensive device which is intended to only serve one specific very rich individual wouldn't need the data or parts in order to do proceedures he would obviously never encounter.
As such, i doubt with his age and gender that he would be needing Breast Enhancement surgery or Emergency C-Section...
Local anesthetic only dampens the feeling of the upper tissue.Mr.K. said:
as for what she was shooting up...
you don't know what it is.
you 'think' it is pain killers, however that may not be the case.
It could be Adrenaline in order to prevent her from going into shock...
as such, adrenaline shots are not anesthetic or analgesic.
Mr.K. said:
again... implied.
the Black goo makes face huggers.
Shaw can not be impregnated.
Holloway is infected with the black goo.
Shaw and Holloway have sex.
sooo...
the squid is acctually Holloways sperm mutated.
Whoa. Makes a lot of sense.Pyro Paul said:
So what was with the scientist guy who got throat fucked by the mutant worm going all lobby scene and storming the Prometheus? What was that all about?
That wasn't the same guy.Bertylicious said:
The punk looking mohawk guy who gets the acid blood sprayed over his face becomes the pretzel zombie that attacks the Prometheus. How the hell that worked I don't know. The guy that gets throat fucked is the body they find at the "shrine" and where we get the jump scare of the alien snake shooting out of his mouth.
Eh, it wasn't that bad really compared to some other stuff in movies/games.
Dead Space 2 comes to mind, as does Passion Of The Christ, that torture porn Mel Gibson made a few years back.

I thought the zombie monster was the Husband of the redhead, because killing him with fire didnt stop him from finishing his transformation.Casual Shinji said:
This makes more sense though. They never did find him did they.
Pretty sure pretzel zombie wasn't punk looking mohawk guy. One of us is mistaken and I'm at work so can you check youtube?Casual Shinji said:
In any case, what does it mean in the wider picture? I thought it was unneccesary and only put in there to kill off the alleged 17 crew members, which really was a missed oppurtunity for all manner of alien hijinks.
Well they burned his ass to cinder so I assume they salvaged his remains.Fieldy409 said:
This would be a lot easier if the majority of characters had memorable names, but I think they mentioned the mowhawk guy's name when they see his suit cam is online right outside the entrance. And they did (to my recollection) find only one body at the shrine.
I checked Wiki. It was the mokawk guy (Fifield).Bertylicious said:
Apparently the acid blood from the alien snake burns through Fifield's helmet, expossing him to the leaking black goo and turning him into "Zombie-Fifield".
Fifield. That was his name. Forgot what biologists name was. Millsomething i think
They found biologists body at shrine (peniswormoralraped)
Fifield went back to the ship and mutilates some people
Holloway was the one that Fassdroid infected.

Give that a read, its a pretty interesting breakdown.

That's brilliant, thanks!Luftwaffles said:
Still doesn't explain what pretzel zombie was all about though.
Ditto, I am very squeamish though.Sean Hollyman said:It had me on edge for some reason, like my ass was tingling
I think it was just an example of how the black goop corrupts. Fifield was pretty cold towards everyone on the ship.Bertylicious said:
The whole movie leaves it wide open for a sequel. I want to know whats the deal with David instead. He finds slime on the walls when they first entered the temple and says "impressive" like he knows where it came from. He comments on how "its every childs wish to kill their parents". He was the only one who could read and operate the glyphs inside the temple and ship, he heard the space jockeys conversation in the hypersleep/pilot chamber, hell he even talked to one of them. (we dont even know what he said, it may not be in the interests of Weyland too)
AS for why he infected Holloway in the first place. Remember how David asked Holloway, what would he be willing to do for answers, "everything" maybe he took that as the go ahead to experiment on him. Find out what it does because Weyland commanded him to "Try harder". And on par with Dr Ash in Alien, it was clear that company bots treated the crew as expendable in favour of the companies agenda. Not until Bishop-bot in Aliens were the droids implanted with (what i assume) are the 3 laws of robotics.
I am also looking forward to the directors cut, which should be 'in production'
Ridley, dont fail us now.
I just can't stand things being cut, slit, bit, stabbed, slashed *shudders*AVATAR_RAGE said:Ditto, I am very squeamish though.Sean Hollyman said:It had me on edge for some reason, like my ass was tingling

I'm sure there's a fair share of "reading too much into it" going on, but informative nontheless.
Did exactly what a horror movie is supposed to do; put me on the edge of my seat, made me squirm, made me look at my friend and say "Eeeeew". Great stuff. Loved the movie.
while I completely agree on your opinion, and couldn't have put it better, what "other" movie are you referring to?VanQQisH said:
OT: I would have grabbed one of those flamethrowers and cooked that thing to dust, there is no fucking way I'd have trusted the machine's gas thingy to work. Those fuckers would be roasted by the time I was done. Also, why did she leave the planet when there were clearly more of those ships left and shit down there? I would have glazed that side of the planet with all the firepower I had on there.
I wasn't really shocked, more interested in seeing what kind of spawn was cooked up in Noomi's womb.
However, the woman next to me was a tension-wreck once we reached 50% of the playtime. Once the surgery started, she wasn't able to look at the screen and rocked her seat because she was extremely uncomfortable.
