that is from the comic con promo ..there arent more polished versions i think ...

I love this one though.

I saw this today and posted it because I am not sure how old it is and I noticed the FOX Logo in the bottom right hand corner as with most of their film posters so I think it is quite possibly legit.

Nice effort...but not a movie poster, and too obviously fake.

I see FAKE all written on the face of that stoopid alien on left top corner If they could avoided to put an alien in that such silly way it would have been well done ...as a fake of course . ( its anyway better of that semi original atrocious one with the giant head and plastic people walking between the urns )

This fake has been around for sometime now.

I defer to you guys, you are the experts...

Trololololol? ;)

Yeah. Nice effort...but looks fake. The Alien in the top left...too obvious. But, like I said, nice effort.

I have serious doubts that it is fake due to the fact that google has not removed it from it's image gallery and it clearly bears the FOX logo which does not in any way appear to be photo shopped, but rather, it appears embeded as if we are looking at a photograph of a true poster. But like I said I defer to you experts, if you say it is fake than it must be. I'll roll with you guys on that. All the same, I like it a lot and do not think, and this is just my opinion, that the creature in the planet looks dumb at all, I think it is appropriate. I like creativity in general, i live for it actually, and this image has lots of it.

Fake.

Now that looks more like it...

I have to say that whomever did the design of that poster...he or she put a whole lot of heart and soul into it...i myself am a digital artist and have worked on many game design art resources....in my opinion...a great job....but it's not really the art itself we discussing here...rather the way it portrays the whole story....we all know by now the space jocky will be involved and so will the xeno's( well in some shape or form)...but it lacks the whole mystery aspect....the "so called" official poster does have a simpler yet more mysterious air to it...which is great and i think once we all see the movie it will all make a whole lot of sense ...tho right now...it's just killing me with suspense....and thats perfect!

all the alicante/water pit was considered by someone an hoax ... of course we dont know . They said that they were filming scenes with Fassbender and Pearce alone.... and that could be interesting .

The information I posted above has been officially & independently confirmed by IMDB.

for what i know , from all the discussion that there was on that topic , the water pit was booked for 3 weeks but noone went there ... infact you will not see topics on that subject in the last 30 days . So it was probably an artificial hoax to send people in the wrong place OR they are very good filming in secret . Btw IMDB can indipendently confirm nothing since they know no much more that us and they have already changed their infos many times . The scene should have involved PEarce and fassbender on a "ship" or "yacht" ( but that could be a spaceship too ) ..but that was August talking ..then nothing more arrived

I believe you, and I look forward to seeing that opening sequence as well as this scene no matter where they are/were filmed. By the way and just FYI, In my web surfing I have not come across one piece of proof to indicate to me that the leaked story line from a while back @ The AVP Web Site and others, was wrong in any way what so ever, so while all the other stuff out there may be phoney, with each new bit of info that comes in we get more and more of a confirmation that this leaked story line was not only accurate, but so far, it's been dead bang on the money in every regard.. Add to that the fact that it makes complete prefect sense and that it reads like a Ridley Scott script and what I think we have is a major spoiler for the entire film. I hope I am wrong, I really do, cause if not, I know scene for scene... already... everything that is going to happen in this film from it. I do take everything with a grain of salt, but that storyline so far has been dead bang on the money with NO Exceptions. & The message is in fact, in the end I think, going to be a strong statement and even send a strong message about how mankind just can not afford to make any mistakes in our adventures in outer space...we just have absolutely No Clue despite what we think as a race of beings about what is really going on out there.

someone on the aint it cool found back the original post of the author that said it was a personal try to build a belivable story ( just check all the messages below the AICN thread ). Plus there are almost 3 things that make me belive tha plot is fan made 1) one that have a so clear look at the script CANT add an important actor that was never involved in the movie ( ben foster ) 2) two other names are wrong ...the others were already on IMDB ..so he didnt nail nothing that we already didnt know . 3) he did not mention a space jockey body/suit in the ampule room..its their first meet with an alien ...there should be in the script .

True Dat. Either way if the actual is even close to that I will be happy, that story "Rocks the Yard".

That theme music is in fact "AWESOME" and for me it sounds as if it is made in the spirit of the "Warning" signal the Nostromo intercepted and which is being sent out from the Derelict on LV-426...it sounds like... as Dallas described it..."an accoustical beacon repeating at intervals of 12 seconds." Only it's repeating a lot quicker than 12 seconds, more like 3 or 4. Overall the effect that score has on the visuals is astounding and IMO... Sound... makes/can make... a big difference in the perceived atmosphere of any film that has it. It is a perfect choice.

I think it sounds like the original Alien teaser trailer before the film score was completed by Jerry Goldsmith back in the spring of 79. The Prometues trailer has heavy keyboard sounds added but very, very simular.

I WAS 17 @ THE TIME. What made that 1st ever Alien Spot so amazing was that up until that time in film history no one had ever dared advertise a feature film in that manner...AND THE SOUNDS ON IT. No one had ever heard sound presented in that manner in a film ad. The breathing, "Sigouney Ripley's" lol, breathing was a Big part of That!!! We cannot hear it in that clip. I think it may have actually been in one of the later versions of it, or I imagined it, but there were at least 5 different versions of it that came out in succession.

...anyone ?

Looks like a membrane to a cell or a sun shot in infarred...

no sir... but let me know if ya want a hint...

It's the Saturnian moon Prometheus.

And we have a winner.. awesome job man "You now have The Con" Make it a good one.

Alright cool man! Great job! Goes to show you my astronomy knowledge is rather poor! lol

it was a great guess you made cain1977 with a little more time you would have got that I'm sure.

Here's an obscure one for y'all. What are we seeing in the picture (yes, its a bus)? Who manufactures it and how does it relate to the Alien franchise? [img]http://i418.photobucket.com/albums/pp266/hairybluebeast/th_TriviaBus.jpg[/img]

Cant see it bro....

whats the secret to embedding a photo in a post? OK, that's a bit better on the pic.

that url link but I am not really sure but it easy to post the url link that will take the person there...

to post a pic you need to first have the pic hosted somewhere like Photobucket.com so when you see one you like and want to use it later on in an email or on bulliten Boards you will need to first save it anywhere on your PC. Next pic any free picture hosting service such as photobucket.com and create an account it takes 2 minutes. Now when you upload that pic you saved on your PC you will be able to see the pic in Photobucket after it uploads and if you click on that pic it will call it up bigger if it can and also with several sets of code beside it. Pick the one that says direct link and copy the code. {you can just click where it is and it will do it for you automatically} Now in your post on the Board click on that picture icon and add/paste the code in there...be sure there is only one instance of the code [img} at the front and only one instance of the code[/img} at the end. That's it your done.

I know the answer in the back of my head somewhere and it has to do with the company that Alien's "Wayland Yutani" was derived from, I have the info somewhere I think and am trying to dig it up.

I found it... The name "Weylan-Yutani"was created by Ron Cobb, one of the designers of the Nostromo and its crew's uniforms. Weylan Yutani for instance is almost a joke, but not quite.... Here in his own words is how Mr. Cobb came up with it... "I wanted to imply that poor old England is back on its feet and has united with the Japanese, who have taken over the building of spaceships the same way they have now with cars and supertankers. In coming up with a strange company name I thought of British Leyland and Toyota, but we couldn't use "Leyland-Toyota" in the film. Changing one letter gave me "Weylan," and "Yutani" was a Japanese neighbor of mine. " British Leyland or otherwise Toyota must be the answer you were looking for. One of those 2 companys made that Bus. Great Question and I have wrestled Back Control of the board...

BOOYAH! I knew someone would have that floating around in their head!
