I love this scene showing the Space Jockey. This and the derelict spaceship have such an aura of mystery it kept me wondering for years...Even Now it still works because I won't accept the crummy explanation that was in Prometheus about the Space Jockey. I thought it was Insulting to those of us Alien fans who Love and Respect ALIEN for the genius horror masterpiece that it is.
I really hope they retcon the retcon, so the Engineers found some Space Jockey ships and used the fossilized corpses as suits. The ship and Xenomorph eggs on this ship being untouched.
Lol what exactly did they explain that was insulting? The space jockey is way bigger than the engineers and therefore they are definitelly not the same species. And keep in mind: Ridley Scott made the first Alien as well as Prometheus. What you are saying is: He is insulting himself.
It probably made more Xenomorphs somehow. That’s the only explanation I can think of that would explain all of those Facehugger eggs down below. Where it exactly was at the time they explored the ship here, in this scene, of course no one can say.
Well early drafts of the script stated that it died out of low energy. The acid blood was originally meant to be some sort of battery for the xenos, which is why at the end of alien the xeno looked weak. But then aliens retcons this since they can survive for weeks.
They should have just stopped at the space jockey and beacon and just headed tf out of there. Don't even bother exploring the rest of that ship. It would have saved the Nostromo in general. Nostalgia!
I remember being a boy, back in the late 1990s and early 2000s, seeing this movie series for the first time. The first film and second films really creeped me tf out. Along with 3 and especially Resurrection. Pretty much the first four films, before Isolation and especially Romulus coming out, during the Scott and Cameron era of filming with Weaver at the center were the goated era of the series. I just watched Romulus when it came out, and now I'm about to complete Isolation. Nostalgia!
Can anybody who has read all the lore, read the comics, played the games, etc. care to explain what the source of light inside the cockpit supposed to be or could be? I have always wondered where the light could be coming from given that from the outside the ship doesn't seem to have any transparent windows as such.

Over 40 years and this film has withstood the test of time. An absolute sci-fi-horror masterpiece.
Back when they were wiling to do crazy sci fi films.
Remember predator? 2001 a space odyssey. Planet of the apes.
Hell, even The One!
The music score is also a masterpiece.
4K makes it easier to spot Ridley Scott's kids in the spacesuits when they are inside the cockpit of the derelict ship.
I love this scene showing the Space Jockey.

i am 100% with you on this

Exactly, after Aliens I pretend the story arc is complete and that all other movies after that are just a bad dream!!😂
@@novelty8theory494 You'll ignore all coming up movies?
One of the greatest movies ever made.
I like how a concept of horror in space is made, especially with extraterrestrials as the slashers or victims of the killer.
You ever wondered what happened to the Xeno that burst out the Engineer? 🤔
All the time 😊

@@TheTechCguy Could have simply been out hunting. Could have went into hibernation. Or perhaps dead.

The initial drafts for what became Prometheus was going to answer that.
2:34 - 2:49 That music always gives me the chills. I also like how Alien (1979) ties into Promethus (2012).

underrated score

There is a small black "eye" looking thing on the top of the ship.
@elliottlava7784 ooh that must be it. I am gonna have to take a look at the ship once again. Thanks!

Lets get the hell out of here was the best idea 😂😂
Someone once told me the Jockey died whilst on the toilet. And now I can't unsee it.
That was the real ALIEN
Can someone tell me who's who?
