Xenomorph 54
MemberOvomorphApr-29-2012 4:58 PMThis reminds me of The Thing (1982), where everyone gets crazy at some point and starts attaking others...there's even an axe too...
Have you heard of phoenix asteroids?
They glow in every color of the rainbow...they travel endlessly through space...

Safe? Of course he isn't safe, but he's good!
Goddamn Tropics in here
MemberFacehuggerApr-29-2012 5:08 PMI was just about to add a similarities to the original Thing comment....
I think there may be a little 'is my mate infected or not' thrown in
If this film takes the best elements of both, it would be near purfect......
Come on Ridders make it so..........

MemberOvomorphApr-29-2012 5:10 PM@Myrddin365 I know...but, even knowing who's infected, they can build a very good suspense in this movie.

MemberFacehuggerApr-29-2012 5:13 PMOr even ' err no im not infected, i've just grazed my elbow'

MemberOvomorphApr-29-2012 5:18 PMB y "original Thing" I am sure you meant The remake by Carpenter.

MemberOvomorphApr-29-2012 5:32 PMBack at the very beginning, Ridley said there were elements of this film that were reminiscent of The Thing.

MemberFacehuggerApr-29-2012 5:40 PMI think so, but not as hidden as per Myrddin365.
The'trust no one' will be there i think.......
Could one of the infections be for the good of the crew, to flight the evil?
Holloway perhaps, with some help from David's tinkering?

In all fairness, Carpenter's film was much closer to the short story "Who Goes There" than the black and white "The Thing From Outer Space."
there appears to be solidarity with the crew in all the trailers except when Shaw wakes up and cold cocks some unfortunate medical professional.
Safe? Of course he isn't safe, but he's good!
