MemberOvomorph01/17/2012Google refuses to cough up the original Prometheus trailer which was leaked out of Comic-Con 2011 back in July. I remember watching that leaked trailer and was amazed at the details revealed about the picture.
One particular shot that was nothing short of amazing was of Noomi's character lying in a medical bed with her belly distended and moving around her waist! I can't find a screen grab of this particular shot, either.
Does anyone remember this shot from that Comic-con trailer? Or am I just fantasizing again?

MemberOvomorph01/17/2012no, i've read reports of the same. either you're all fantasizing or they removed that particular shot. perhaps too revealing or straight forward. but you can deduce a pregnancy scenario from the other snippets in the trailer.

MemberOvomorph01/17/2012I remember my first reaction to seeing that shot was "Wow, Noomi's character gets impregnated by a facehugger?!?!?!? B-b-b-ut Ridley said there'd be no xenomorphs in this picture! Must. Hibernate. Until. June."

MemberOvomorph01/17/2012I don't know about the Comic-con trailer, but there were brief shots in the leaked teaser trailer that didn't make the official version. I brought them up in a new topic I titled, "The Forest Through The Trees', but here's an excerpt that might bring light to your question:
"When the official version of the teaser trailer hit, I poured over it endlessly, as I’m sure all of you did, and I noticed something or rather its absence…Two shots, one second apart that could originally be seen in the leaked version of the trailer that appeared over Thanksgiving weekend. They are both particularly interesting in spite of their poor quality.
The first, at :37 sec, shows a black skeletal hand, perhaps it’s not a hand, but something moving over the edge of a cryo-unit. What it is or isn’t, I don't know, but am very curious about. It’s alive, it’s moving and it sure as hell does not look human.
The second, at :39 sec, is of a bulge moving in someon'es stomach. It, again, looks very strange and appears for less than a second, so it’s rather difficult to hazard a guess at what it might be.
These shots flank, before and after, a shot of the SpaceJockey chair rising out of the floor, as appears in the official trailer."
The leaked trailer is still available at: http://www.disclose.tv/action/viewvideo/83539/PROMETHEUS_Leaked_Trailer_Enhanced_De_noised/
The second of the two shots might be what your referring to, but I only may have seen it wrong, concidering the quality is so poor. Check it out and tell me what you think.

AdminEngineer01/17/2012Yes, that scene does exist, my guess is that (as mentioned above) it revealed too much. Fans would get all excited at the notion of a chestburster scene - when in actuality it could be/and probably will be something very different.
There were at least 6 versions of the trailer, we've only seen 2 of them. One which made the initial release. Maybe Fox will release that trailer you're thinking about as a follow-up as we near the release date. Maybe it will host even more revealing and speculative scenes.
It would certainly be a good idea from a marketing stand point.

MemberOvomorph01/18/2012Thank you craigamore, for the link to the video and the still from the trailer. However, this is not the video I am looking for. The video I'm looking for is from someone's cellphone who captured the trailer from the Comic-con Prometheus event. I think Fox was pretty thorough with their search and destroy for that trailer leak.
