It's driving me insane. It's all over the you tube comment pages. The reasoning is so ludicrous and there's no reasoning with these people either...

Haven't you heard Gehirn? 'Prometheus can't be a rip-off of 'Avatar'. 'Avatar' is already a rip-off of 'Fern Gully: The Last Rainforest'....and I'm being totally serious. Check out the plot on wikipedia. I remembered it from my childhoodright after I saw 'Avatar' in the theater. I was so disappointed in him.

I think that the people that are compairing it to Halo and Dead Space are the younger crowd. All of the people on this website know where a lot of these movies and games got their insperation.

I would rather say that dead space is
influenced by the thing (with kurt russell)
while halo got also inspiration from Aliens
in terms of the marines and dropship.

Someone on here claimed that his brother worked on the set...his brother mentioned that we should expect something like "The Thing"....(except in space)...he was also asked weather their will be any Xeno's and he said something like "kind of yes".
That was a while back and u cannot take any rumors to seriously....but I do hope it was more than just a rumor... It ties in well with the crew members transforming or metamorphosing into something else....so their might be plenty of new beasties running amok....in which case i actually don't mind seeing plenty of animatronics combined with Cgi....as long as their is plenty of variety.
I am already confident that the story will be nice and diabolically disturbing enough... and acting will be up to scratch...the cast is very promising!.

I suppose it is an inevitability that people are gonna compare Prometheus to Dead Space and Halo....as long as they know witch came first....sadly it seems they don't!
It does not simply end with the basic look and feel of the trailer....some are also trying to point out that the score was stolen from Inception and Transformers...truth is that the score found it's roots in the original Alien trailer....very upsetting... this juvenile ignorance!
