[quote name="Mischief Maker"][quote name="laudablepuss"][quote name="Mischief Maker"][quote name="a scientist"]<b>Prometheus</b>- Alien baby grows from a single cell to fetus within a day. A rate not remotely possible by anything. This is done without any visible detriment to the host mother, who should have been eaten alive and sucked dry. After being born prematurely and knocked out by future disinfectant, it grows from baby to the size of a rhino within hours inside a sterile operating room.[/quote] This is because deep down, under the texture maps, every CGI monster is the T-1000 <A HREF="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8LAi6hwLHqU">Tell me I'm wrong. *SPOILERZ*</A>[/quote] I see the scene there, and I remember Agent T-1000 Doggett, but I'm not sure what you're trying to say here. How is the world's biggest face hugger the T-1000?[/quote] The floaty impossible physics, sprouting new appendages left and right, applying force without proper leverage, just like the Thing reboot and even like the octopus in the Fellowship of the Ring. Animators can do things that would be impossible with practical effects and they end up creating things so impractical they break suspension of disbelief. Remember how the original face hugger had, like, bones and joints?[/quote]
