MemberOvomorph12/6/2011Two of the shots from the comic-con footage have really got me thinking,

Taking the main Prometheus pic as the 1st, the 10th & 11th pics are the ones i'm talking about.
I'm pretty sure its Vickers in both shots, she looks messed up!

MemberOvomorph12/6/2011that url does not work for me...but i know something nasty is gonna happen to her....personally i adore Charlize Theron....she is from my home country (South Africa) and i am very proud of what she has manged to achieve throughout her career...i would ten times rather c her as the protagonist in this movie....but from what I can tell she is either gonna die a horrible death or she is gonna be some kinda robotic thing send by the company...or perhaps she will be the villain....and change into an evil alien xeno prototype send by the jockeys to investigate .....as some made up plot I read before suggested....witch ever way...i am glad she is in this movie and i am sure she will play her character to the T....she is a very accomplished actress ...be sure to expect an amazing performance!

MemberOvomorph12/6/2011She is a good actress ...a very good one ... but for some reasons she is the character i fear the most .... she is a well known actress in a role that can be a stereotype ( the classic corporate manager that think only about profit ) and she is so beautiful that her apparence is a stereotype alone . It will not be an easy task to create something original and deep .

MemberOvomorph12/6/2011true...that's why i doubt that she will be the protagonist....but she did mention that her character changes quite dramatically as the movie progresses....whether she becomes a good girl or a acid bleeding abomination...well only time will tell?

Sorry people, I seem to have put an extra character in the original link, the above link should work now.

MemberOvomorph12/6/2011Im starting to think that elements of the leaked plot could be true, i.e, Vickers transforming. Im pretty sure theres some documentary on one of my Alien DVDs that mentions the "Star Beast"

MemberOvomorph12/6/2011When I heard she was gonna be in this I was stunned, I have such a Major Adult Crush On her.
She's a FABULOUS actress as well.
I guess "some girls" got all the beauty and the brains.
She is a walking talking testament to the existence of some sort of a god, LOL cause only a God IMO could make woman that special.

--------------------------
I have been totally convinced of this for some time now.

MemberOvomorph12/6/2011I'm going to dig my boxset out tonight and go through the documentaries to see if I can find out anything interesting.
OT - I've got a kinda feeling its gona go someway like this,
Space Jockey/Engineer + Human = Xenomorph.

MemberOvomorph12/6/2011the original title for alien was gonna be "Star Beast"....witch in my opinion would have been a very lame title....don't ask me where i read this....but i remember it cause i almost choked with laughter when i read it...it was one of those popcorn facts...

MemberOvomorph12/6/2011"Star Beast - Developing the story" is the short documentary. I'm going to scrutinise it later when i have the time. If anyone else wants to see it, here are the links.

MemberOvomorph12/6/2011When Alien was released in JAPAN for instance,
It's Title there translated to something like...
"The 8th Passenger Of The Nostromo".
"Star Beast" was the name Dan O'Bannon orginaly penned to his original story which eventually became "Alien".

MemberOvomorph12/6/2011Who or what is the "8th Passenger" ? 7 crew members, so is it Jonsey or the Xenomorph? Slighly OT, but its got me thinking now.

MemberOvomorph12/6/2011Awesome! That 2nd poster would look nice in a frame on my wall.

MemberOvomorph12/6/2011remember that this "leaked plot " had all the "sure" facts wrong ...wrong actors , wrong actors names ( and there was no need to put them ), wrong situations and a guy that have said to have made it for fun ...he did wrote From IMDB: "...thought I'd try my hand at putting together my own plot summary based on what little we know and what I can see happening." ...so guys the star beast plot is fake ( of course thats dont mean that everything is wrong , we do speculations too )

Engineer Prototype - Model GAJ84
MemberOvomorph12/6/2011The Star Beast could still be a part of Prometheus, If so I think it will be something completely original.
OT - If any Star Wars fans have played "The Force Unleashed" they might know what im talking about. The main character in those games is called "Starkiller". In an early draught for Star Wars, Luke Skywalker was known as Luke Starkiller. What i'm trying to say is that old ideas can always be brought back to the table and looked at again, possibly to become something completely new.

MemberOvomorph12/6/2011Those are great posters! From my limited Japanese ability the bottom poster says ALIEN 2.
So unique

MemberOvomorph12/8/2011The 8th crew member is obviously the Alien. Star beast is a pretty naff name for a movie unless one of those cheap B movies made in the 70's or 80's. Scott has class, integrity and a reputation for making top class movies. I get the impression there aint gonna be a star beast cavorting around on the screen. If something does appear it will be in the last minute with a rake of questions left unanswered.

Micro changes in air density
MemberOvomorph12/8/2011Yes I reckon Vickers will be a central figure. See seams to be getting a lot of press. Mind you see is the only real celeb in the movie. Is she the company person? Is she an Android, and is she good or evil? Lots of questions. There is a shot of a woman in the trailer falling to her knees on entering the ship. Isa this Vickers and is she suffering from some sort of transformation

DinosaurRaghhh
MemberOvomorph12/8/2011I'm convinced the mix between android and primitive xenomorth is going to create something nasty.....

Frantz
MemberOvomorph12/8/2011Remember that vickers should not have been a central character .. she said they "expanded" her personality from being a simple "suit" ...so i dont think she is a central figure . ... and i think ridley use her as a bait ...in Alien the fact you didnt exactly know who was the central character worked perfectly ( the most famous actor was tom skerrit ) and i think he will want to play that game once more .
There is little talk for example of two quite important actors like Pearce and Elba .
btw until now we can assume that Noomi is the central character along Fassbender .
