Deacon in Paradise

Are you people BLIND! You are all right i's gonna be fricking HUGE...but what is FRICKING HUGE in the alein franchise? the fricking QUEEN It's so obvious the deacon's gonna mature into the QUEEN! :D :D :D

Absolutely! I hope we will find out much more about the Engineers also.

I hope it looks a bit more menacing when it grows up. It probably reaches adolescence about 5 hours after birth.

...i love the new design....it's not quite as fascinating and perfect....but it's a bit scarier....that jaw that pops out....Jaws..?...run for your money!

Yes. Jaws! Well, [url=http://youtu.be/GjRSlnJ1rA4]the goblin shark[/url].

Deacon after it exposed to black goo!

Yeah, I want to know more about the Engineers. Xenomorphs had enough fame in three parts of the aliens (the fourth I don't like at all).

once that Deacon reaches an adult stage. Its going to be an absolute killing machine! i mean look at! In its infancy(chestbursted) stage It already has limbs, its more developed (pigmentation/ build), is the size of a human being, and already sports the inner jaw. Definitely a proto design.... Kinda relate it to prehistoric creatures. Its going to be very very bad as an adult....definitely something to look foward to. I just hope it retains the attributes of the original creatures (tail, wall climbing ability, etc.) Nonetheless I'll enjoy seeing it kill anyway! Its the Engineer's ultimate creation! In terms of the design i totally dig it. It looks like a reinvented xenomorph and shows how diverse their genetic adaptions are. As for the engineers, Look foward to finding out about thm in all aspects.

Yes, I really would like to see Deacon in the sequel. In fact I hope that the movie is viewed from two perspectives: 1) Planet of the Engineers with David Shaw. 2) Weyland / Yutani investigating the events of LV-223. and my thread on the Deacon and why I think it's a fast killing machine...

@raptor20... yeah haha. it has that triassic pterosaur look to it. an early prehistoric look. Clearly theyll change in 30 years to the alien we all know and love, but wow... They definitely borrowed from a few different dinosaur fossils.

Cannot wait for the Deacon to make it's grand appearance! Hopefully some of our questions will be answered!

I think the Deacon is special because it's not like Alien where human body was used as an egg for the little fecker to grow. Here it's Holloway's infected semen that grows quickly inside Shaw's belly. (i think it's irrelevent weather Shaw was fertile or not). The Deacon is Holloways son. it's his blood. Now how would that be for that being. Will it be smart like humans? or smarter? and vicious like us etc? Will it be able to take a ship and leave? or just stay there to die alone unless someone comes say hi? etc etc

i don't get why people think the deacon is'nt cool....it's not supposed to look exactly like the original zeno....we lucky we even got something that looks remotely like the creature from alien....it's pretty close actually....i'm loving it....it's way more toothy and the extended jaw just makes way more sense now....a very fascinating concept...IMO!

The more I look at the Deacon, the freakier it gets. It's face is very benign looking, sort of baby like, which when juxtaposed next to the rest of the head, body, and extending jaw, gives off a really demonic vibe. Also, that noise that it makes is fncking downright scary. So yeah, I'd like to see at least a little bit of it in a sequel. I'd also love to see what black goo + deacon gets you.

If you notice the size of the given facehuggers are in direct relation to the size to be of the chestburster that emerges: Kane and his burster all other humans and facehuggers alike during the course of the Alien franchise well now size is EVERYTHING NOW!!! The giant Squid Hugger and as luck would have it the Bio Engineer was ensnared by it. So the Deacon that eventually emerged was as some have said here already, very large for it's birthing process so it's growing up is going to be exponential and massive! I hope any way! I wonder what would have been the case had it been Shaw that had succumbed to the writhing thing? Because as has been presented so far during the evolutionary course of the Alien franchise is that no laid embryo come Chestburster can be larger than the sum of its hosts parts in a manner of speaking otherwise it would defy the laws of physical evolution and Spacial laws are what every living thing MUST obey, it is a spacial standard. Adaptations can come about as a result of scientific tampering or unique natural biological circumstances but they have all and above have to be extremely unique in their origin as to have a discernable effect to potentially defy evolutionary dynamics. It could possibly be a dwarve version of the same liniage of species within Shaw if it had got to her.

Wow, this topic has over 300 likes on facebook! That's impressive!

could the deacon be the first queen alien as no one knows where she comes from ?

Yes, but if that is the case then how does 'She' get from LV-223 over to LV-426? Or into a ship that takes 'Her' up then crash-lands that way on LV 426?

The sequel must include Engineers going about their business/society and how they handle the appearence of Shaw/David// The Engineers are expecting Shaw and David....and have had some contact/connection to the Weyland Industries...
