Prometheus trailer

agreed, or like an oxygen mask in a hospital

i hope that the movie is darker then some of the images released because it does not give me that alien vibe, but i did here that because of 3D filming the sets had to be light and that they would digitally edit the darkness in after filming, so i hope that the "darkness" is just not in there yest because it looks to light. http://www.ifc.com/news/assets_c/112311_prometheus.jpg in fact it kind of reminds me of star trek the next generation with the way its lit

everyone realizes that that's the derelict ship crashing at the end of the trailer right? i hope so because i have not seen anybody talk about it

what I think we are going to see here is not a big fat bad version of Alien It'll be more like a Bigger Badder and viscous version of "War Of The Worlds...In Reverse, This time it'll be Man that is doing the invading...and this time the Monsters are going to be bigger and badder and more viscous and not like it at all and this is what I think everyone is missing, that this film IS going to be very very Dark, very very sinister and raise puzzling questions about our role and responsibilities in space and as perceived G-ds, we are going to see who/what Engineered the Xenomorph's, there will be a version of the Xenomorph but not the one everyone is used to seeing, and it's going to be bigger and badder and more viscous as well. There are going to be some images in this thing that standing alone will draw comparisons to films like 2001; A Space Odyssey and The Original Planet Of The Apes. People are going to be troubled by it, think about it, talk about and wonder about it for years after...it is going to spawn at least one more film in the franchise... and it is going to be Ridley Scott's & H R Giger's "Tour De Force" and most of us are going to be utterly astonished at how beautiful a film it is going to be!

that's good optimism Spartacus, but i try to look at movies neutrally, that way if its bad you are not to disappointed and if its good you can be like "wow that was slightly better then i was expecting!" i am very exited for the movie and i hope its good but no matter what anybody says, its just a movie to me until i see it for myself. (pst, i actually think its going to be REALLY good, that's just my brain talking up there don't listen to it lol)

I can't make anything out clearly in that trailer to say anything for certain and i'm suprised anyone else can, just like the jockey coming up thru the floor. I'm holding judgement until i see the proper trailer. I can speculate about things, but i never like to second guess a film. I let slip with x men first class and was gutted.. Spartacus, careful with your "will be's".. ;) don't psyche yourself out. wait and see and enjoy the film for what it will be.

just an interesting thought, what if Prometheus is not a prequel at all and its sequel will be a remake of alien cutting all plot lines to the original film. kind of like the new planet of the apps, a reboot if you will.

Say invaderzim42, those sure are high definition photos you put up here, thank you. If you have high-def photos of scenes from the trailer, that would be very helpful, I think.

? sorry pjr the space jockey face is from the original movie and the other pictures are screen shots and were already posted to the site i think :(

and also Tec-B at first i could not see anything in the trailer as well but after repeated viewings i have made out a lot of things, the cargo bay opening up, the vehicles moving out, the ship moving to the planet, the girl falling to her knees mutating, the space jockey, and after it says PROMETHEUS it shows a girl screaming and the derelict crashing onto the planet vertically and then the characters running from it as it falls down into that position it was in when they found it in the first one, at first i did not believe myself but yeah, that's 100% the derelict :)

i also saw waterfalls, a guy in a space helmet shooting a hand gun, a ship blowing up, and other stuff. if you go to the trailer i first posted and go to the 1:06 mark, you can see one of the characters looking at the derelict standing and then in the next shot it starts to fall.

well yeah the obvious things i saw, but things like the jockey emerging and the ship crashing.. nope.. i mean i can see the ship, but whether it's crashing or not i'm not sure, as for the emerging jockey, nope, not even vaguely (this is what i can see though, some will have better eyes than me). I see the girl dropping to her knees, but not sure about the mutating thing. I see the group f people firing pistols (or the future space equivalent).

really??? i thought that the things you are seeing are the harder to see things and the ship and the jockey were the really easy to spot "oh my god!" things in the trailer.

For my money, the slowed down trailer posted on 12/3 by Biomechanic is very good. And it's sound seems spookier to me. One question that just occurred to me - if that's the derelict crashing at the end and the humans are running away, how did they happen to be right where it was going to crash?

thats is a very good question and i would say "suspension of disbelief" or "magic" but this is Scott we are talking about so idk.

maybe the saw the ship and determined where it was going to land or something like that. well the movie is about Terraforming or something like that right? what if the science team went there to start setting stuff up to do that and the space jockeys (who from romers are life engineers that start life) were observing our evolutionary progress when shit broke out on the ship and it crashed. i might be over thinking it there but i like that idea.

I have a feeling the mercenaries working on their own got desperate and sabotaged the craft to prevent them leaving with something important. The unsuspecting science team working around it watch it ascending not knowing and then it explodes and crashes on them like the Hindenberg.

or maybe are those famous last 8 minutes ...someone sacrificed himself and destroy the alien ship that was going to destroy earth ... two survivors try to avoid the crash ...and we are on lv 426 ... :p

That could be possible Frantz although personally I don't like the idea of a hero. I want people to die from greed or hubris. All except Elizabeth that is and I think she is going to be the downfall of the Nostromo because of her nativity and faith.

Story wise they should all die in the end but knowing movie studios these days they will probably have the main character live in the end like in "the thing"
