WAR ON LV-426?

PIONEER featured the designs of H.R. Giger’s creatures in a series of Japanese magazine ads for their Zone home entertainment system in the eighties. Giger created a video commercial as well.

'A monster designed by H.R. Giger starred in a 1985 Japanese commercial for the Zone home entertainment system by Pioneer. The biomechanical beast -- which was also featured in ads that ran at the same time -- appears to be based on illustrations Giger made for underground filmmaker Alejandro Jodorowsky's screen adaptation of "Dune," which never made it to production.'

The commercial was produced by Giger.

The Dome is moving, it is moving its head. It looks like a huge living rock, a huge monster. Is it possible that the original idea introduced the dome/the pyramid as a huge living creature? Are these huge domes the mothers/the creators of the eggs?

Are the LV223 domes monuments representing these huge creatures?

Where does the scene take place? On LV426? The creature is holding a huge gun.(?) Is it a war scene? Was there a war on LV426?

These are images from the video:

Really great finds. Yes, Giger would have had to give permission and it looks like the pyramid below was not new in regards to the concepts included in Prometheus with the artwork above.

The Mars excavation in the Prometheus concept is great also.

Ridley Scott knew as soon as he saw Giger what he wanted when he portrayed evil. Giger art was perfect for it because he embraced the fringe exotic loss of humanity in biomechanical.

This topic on LV-426 is legitimate because it taps into classical Giger approved use...and Ridley Scott used the exact shape in Prometheus in the Engineer pyramid.
