I always wondered why the egg on the official film poster looks nothing like the actual alien egg. Maybe I'll find the answer by rewatching these Making-Of films. Great effort Ripley Clone 8.

I think they didnt use the actual egg in the poster cause nobody would know what they were looking at

Yep, I buy that. But kinda contradictory the fact that they juxtaposed the word Alien with the familiar shape of an egg. But I'm splitting hairs now!

Maybe the did not use it because they thought that a leathery egg would hold the moisture for the facehugger better than a fragile thin egg? In the trailer of Alien it is shown cracking rather easily. Plus you wouldn't have the dramatic opening of the egg either.

the egg or the facehugger would NOT be as cool without the dramatic opening. little things like that make it much more awsome

which makes me think, some of the original Alien trailer was misleading (i.e. the cracking hard-surface egg, with green glow etc), in fact, the trailer for Predators recently was misleading too (remember the multiple predator laser crosshairs on the lead character). So I wonder how much of the Prometheus trailer is going to be completely not show up in the actual film.

It is a common studio practice to include scenes in trailers that are not in the actual movie. You may be on to something there as far as misinformation goes.

The scene in Spielberg's War of the World with them in a mini van and the freeway/bridge collapsing behind them was filmed just for the trailer and wasn't going to be in the movie, but was later added to the film.
