[QUOTE="Joker, post: 5931833, member: 826"] 1.) It looks like the humans painted them. They seem to be done in the style of the various cultures where they were found. 2.) As I understand it after the first viewing I think the plan was to grant Weyland immortality and for David to find out a way how to make that happen. I does seem like incredible foresight to know that they were gonna have sex and create the early facehugger. I think he was just testing the compound to see what effect it would have. Speaking of the facehugger. How the hell did it get so big? It went from the size of a newborn to an 8foot 600 pound monster in a day without any organic material to grow upon. Plane Sailing, it can't really be called a horror film. There are a few scenes that might make you feel uneasy but because everything is so well lit it shouldn't really be an issue. Basically, there are the standard face-rape scenes you have in all the other Alien movies. These being a bit more phallic than previous versions. There's the Space Jockey going on a brutal and slightly gory rampage and then a few scenes containing sporadic violence. I would even go so far as to say there is very little suspense in the movie. As a thriller it failed for me. Why I gave it such a high score is because it's fun to ponder the existential questions posed in the movie. And the prospect of a sequel with Fassbender and Rapace seemed the most entertaining part of the flick. And yes, cryogenic sleep seems to have severely affected some of the scientists. The only two that seem to be smart enough to notice the possible danger and leave the area in time, manage to get lost in a complex which they had just mapped. Ugh, I gotta stop watching TV and posting at the same time. What a ramblefest. [/QUOTE]
