Alien: Birth Temple references money printing room in "Adventures of Tintin and The Black Island" ?


a) 28th August 2017: Another leap of realisation about ideas for Alien inspired by "Adventures of Tintin and The Black Island" (original publication 1938)

The story leads to a printing down in the bottom of the castle of the Black Island.

When Dan O'Bannon wrote Alien, it's as if the printing press became the alter in his birth temple and the sheets of freshly printed money have turned into the spore pods.

b) Ron Cobb's Birth temple concept for Alien (1977). 

Did the circular event in the printing room in the Tintin story become the ovoid spore on the wall of the birth temple?


Ron Cobb's birth temple.
A human explores a primitive angular tomb like chamber,
loosely with a Mayan or Aztec look to it.
