1) I hope not. Lost became a complete mess. 2) suits 3) We are all reading into too much. We've seen stills, the final cuts will look great I'm sure. Differences between the original and new wouldn't be noticed but for nerds like us. 4) Link is an open ended response. Could be very loose. I' honestly won't miss Xeno - it's overused now. The face huggers are not scary, I don't know how I feel about them as an ending connection.

1) There better not be time travel. That trope has become a cop-out for people who can't find an effective way to tell a story. 2) We've only seen the suits. And that's not even all that interesting to me. I'm far more interested in their [SJ's] behavior and their actions, and how they interact with the Prometheus' crew. 3) I don't care how the ship looks, to be honest. Sure, the environment will set the tone, but I'm not hinging my hopes for the film on how the ship looks. 4) The facehugger may be in the film, but I don't think it will be as important as we think. We have this notion that events in Prometheus have to lead to events in Alien. Surely, there will be some threads that are connected, but I'd rather the film's focus be such that its ending doesn't merely lead to "mining tug responds to encoded distress signal" as seen in Alien.

1. We will be lead to believe Elizabeth Shaw is our heroine who survives to the end but we will discover she is linked to helping bring the biomechanoid into the world partly because of her own selfishness. 2. B 3. B 4. C

1) I think that probably Shawn, who is described as "a believer", starts the plot deeply motivated by a quasi-religious desire to know the Engineers/Creators. We can bet that a major twist will be her disillusionment. But this is so predictable that I believe Scott has something else, probably bigger, under his hat. 2) I think we see the suits. This can come as a downside for most fans, but I really believe that the Engineers will be much less "alien" than that most people expect. The reason is, in the "Von Daniken" mithology Scott seems to be adopting in this movie, we are very likely created in the Engineer´s image. 3) The derelict in Alien is a) heavily weathered and b) embebbed in Xenomorph goo, that made a nest of it. So it´s only natural. Go see what most shipwrecks seems just now. 4) If xenomorphs really share their host DNA for body plan, we have to acknowledge that with the exception of Alien 3´s xenomorph (breed on the dog) all xenos we have seen are human-based ones. We NEVER saw the Engineer-bred xenomorph (albeit, if the Engineers are similar to us, the resulting xeno must be similar also), and we NEVER saw a "pure" xeno, if this thing exists. What I think we´re gonna see is this, the "pure" xeno. And maybe something else; i´m really curious about what happens in Shaw´s belly.
