Troodon speculation thread!
Telltale have said
They can also be seen in the trailer. (About 35 seconds in.)
At first I thought they were Compys. They're small, numerous and nocturnal (the book reveals they are nocturnal) which all fits however the way Telltale are building it up it's probably something more dangerous.
So what do people think? Any ideas? Let the speculation (and the inevitable thread derailment) commence!
A new threat emerges: an eerie, nocturnal predator stalking the group, hunting them relentlessly across the island.

Well I'm taking a stab in the Dark I'm going to say Dilophasaurus, because well we first see it at night, and secondly when mentioning it in the gameiformer article. A "Familiar Predator"
But again, that's a big stab in the dark.
Many have already suggested Troodon over at the JPL website. Which judging by the pics the eyes are around the right height. But I don't think that what it is because it would be too simular to the raptors just smaller.
Looking closely at the one to the left of the right tree you can see a good outline of the dinosaurs face. Whatever it is, it appears to have a short snout.
So we can really rule out Compys. Troodon still a possibility. It looks like whatever they are they are poisonous.
Haha!
Wait guys, so the new dino is obviously poisonous, althought that doesnt help at all because TTG can make any dino poisonous in their story, or it could be a hybrid of one of thier dilos with something else. But it looked like Nima was poisined from a bite or scratch, really hoping for Carnotaurs tho!!!!
Those things can be scary when you're concentration real hard on something and then they just appear out of no where. lol
Yep, it makes sense given that we've been told multiple times it's a "new" dinosaur NOT seen in the movies!
Cue a scene where velociraptor number 13 walks into a cloning chamber and sees the horrendous failed attempts at recreating him...

Then I remembered Alien Resurrection. lol
Yeah, I've got to stop assuming that people have watched the same movies as myself.
It's not a bad movie but it is a terrible Alien film. The cloning chamber was by far the best part of the whole flick.
The first one was a good horror movie. And it has the iconic chestbursting scene that has yet to be repeated in such a way in any of the other films.
The second one was a good action movie. And still has special effects that hold strong even today. And the Queen is just awesome.
The third one was only good if you watched the directors cut although I still feel it has too much cursing in it. I don't mind cursing in movies but sometimes they put so much in them that it just ruins the whole thing. Like they're trying to hard to make the movie R rated.
And the 4th was good as a action movie as well but I mostly watch it cause Ron Perlman is a bad ass. lol And the special effects were a bit improved although that gernade scene looked weird. But you're right about the destroying the clones scene. It's probably the best scene in the movie. I'm still not really on page with the human hybrid alien but I don't blame them for trying something new.
Alien vs Predator (yes, I'm going there. lol) was actually an entertaining film. But it was entertaining like Resident Evil was entertaining. The movies were good but they did not capture the feel of the source material they were based upon. So I enjoyed them but I couldn't help but feel that the full potential that they could have been was missed.... by a lot.
Alien vs. Predator: Requiem
Ugh, where do I even start? I guess I'll list what I like cause there wan't much I did like. I liked the PredAlien.... and uh.... that's it. The movie was advertised by bragging that it's rated R (unlike the previous film) but what's the point of all that blood if you can't even freaking see what's going on? The movie was way to dark. I mean, almost total blackness in most scenes. And then there was only one Predator so unlike the first there wasn't any big set pieces. At least the first AVP had some cool fights between the two. Like the fight with the Queen at the end and the first fight between the Alien and the Predator. But AVP:R had hardly anything worth noting. Just a lot of quick deaths. The whole thing was just stupid. lol
Jeff Goldblum: "And uh... there it is."
Spot on mate, I've heard far too many people say that without Ripley there can be no more Alien films. I really have to bite my lip when I hear that. It's called f**king 'Alien', not 'Ripley' people. Sheesh! Also, I'm not really a fan of the series when it goes all action based, it's supposed to be a horror about something so bizzare and scary that our minds can not comprehend what this creature is or what it thinks, not a glorified bug hunt.
Don't get me wrong, Aliens is a classic movie but I will forever harbor a certain amount of resentment towards Cameron for opening the floodgates to a slew of dumb action riffs on the original masterpiece. A bit like the way George Lucas opened the floodgates to the sorry state hollywood cinema is in today.
cough "Indy4" cough
I blame George Lucas for Indy4. Movie could have been epic if he wasn't involved. Hell, I think maybe it would have been better if it hadn't happened at all.
I know what you mean, I guess that's why I like Alien 3 more than Aliens...because it presented itself with the same formula the first movie had, and the fact that...There are no weapons, there is no escape..The directors cut is phenomenal, I just kind of wished they would have stuck with the monastery idea.
Oh, absolutely. It's worth noting that it's not the director's cut but the assembly cut since David Fincher has washed his hands of the film (sorry to be pedantic). Anyway, I've always felt that Alien3 (assembly cut) is the true sequel to Alien. Aliens is like a very well made diversion.
Yes, George Lucas' grubby mitts are all over it, what with the repeated use of CGI gophers and monkeys. I think Spielberg was on auto pilot throughout the whole thing. Such a shame.
Theyre that guy :eek:
Quoted for truth! Absolutely agree.
Especially now the Blu-ray has fixed the audio issues.
My only gripe is that
I hope that those aren't Dilophosaurs...if they are, then TellTale's ignoring the fact that the one that attacked Nedry was a juvenile.

Carnotaurus, they are nocturnal, but again it's a very big and powerfull beast.
Troodon? It's like a little raptor. So really I have no idea and can't wait to know ;-)
And it also can't be Dilophosaurus, because as has been said 8 billion times before, it's a new dinosaur not seen in the films. Si habla ingles? :cool:
They've been known to lock people out of their houses.....a VERY sinister act.
So is Jeff Goldblum's, by the way.
Really? I thought it was Laura Dern.
