...but he doesn't look it. He looks more like 43 in the TED2023 video. He has an aggressive aging genetic disease. This explains his interest in bio-tech and nano-tech. If he can't figure out how to cure himself genetically, he wants to be able to pass on his knowledge via imprinting robotics... This sets the stage for a man who will do desperate things to achieve his goals. It's always about power, knowledge and money...not necessarily in that order... What a great present for all of us to get on the birthday minus 100 days! Let the fires of your imaginations run wild....

So this would make sense that he is the old man in the wheelchair and the one in the spacesuit behind the mercs firing the guns. It could tie in well with everything we know and have seen so far. Him being super old and wanting to find this tech to cure himself, a man-made "fountain of youth" maybe?

Yeah - you can see he does not look 23 in the TED2023 video....deliberate makeup here. [IMG]http://i1150.photobucket.com/albums/o612/Nephilim-LV426/Prometheus/TED2023_Peter_Weyland.png[/IMG] So he will be the guy in the wheelchair in Prometheus. That's what I love about Ridley's movies (his son made the TED2023 video). It is what is NOT said, but inferred in other subtle ways that are the true guts of the story.

Possible new info from [url=http://www.prometheus-movie.com/community/forums/topic/1724]this post here[/url] could somewhat reinforce the genetic aging theory greatly with the Transhumanism and Posthumanism. [b][u]Transhumanisn[/u][/b] Transhumanism, abbreviated as H+ or h+, is an international intellectual and cultural movement that affirms the possibility and desirability of fundamentally transforming the human condition by developing and making widely available technologies to [u]eliminate aging[/u] and to greatly enhance human intellectual, [i]physical, and psychological capacities[/i]. Transhumanist thinkers study the potential benefits and dangers of emerging technologies that could overcome fundamental human limitations, as well as study the ethical matters involved in developing and using such technologies. They predict that human beings may eventually be able to transform themselves into beings with such greatly expanded abilities as to merit the label "posthuman". If Weyland in the beginnig of the Prometheus story is searching for some sort of tech to cure his aging disease then that explains him wanting to "stop at nothing to accomplish his goals". what will this tech be and will he find something completely different from what they set out to find in the first place?

lol yeah transhumanism sounds very glorious and revolutionary but in reality it boils down to the super rich buying transfusions of healthy blood from atheletes and buying young organs for transplantation from murdered third world country kids..so that they can live to be 180 because they have a brand new heart

You know that would be a deleted scene in "Alien"... As Kane peers over the platform to see the Space Jokey, instead to Kane's surprise, there sitting on the corpse of the Jockey is none other than Keith Richards... Richards turns and sees Kane and says... "About bloody time. Your friends left me here with this bloke who had one hell of a hangover...now, let's fancy ourselves some Rum, eh?" That was in the director's cut...lol

Peter Weyland - the official [b]bio[/b]-description (pun intended) from the TED blog: Important bits in bold... "Sir Peter Weyland was born in Mumbai, India at the turn of the Millennium. The progeny of two brilliant parents; His mother, an Oxford Educated Professor of Comparative Mythology, his father, a self-taught software Engineer, it was clear from an early age that Sir Peter’s capabilities would only be eclipsed by his ambition to realize them. By the age of fourteen, he had already registered a dozen patents in a wide range of fields from biotech to robotics, but it would be his dynamic break-throughs in [b]generating synthetic atmosphere above the polar ice cap[/b] that gained him worldwide recognition and spawned an empire. In less than a decade, Weyland Corporation became a worldwide leader in emerging technologies and launched the first privatized industrial mission to leave the planet Earth. “There are other worlds than this one,” Sir Peter boldly declared, “[b]And if there is no air to breathe, we will simply have to make it.[/b]" "Whether challenging the ethical boundaries of medicine with nanotechnology or going toe to toe with the Vatican itself on the issue of gene-therapy sterilization, Sir Peter prides himself on his motto, “If we can, we must.” [b]After a three year media blackout[/b], Weyland has finally emerged to reveal where he’s heading next. Wherever that may be, we will most certainly want to follow." Three years from 2023 = 2020. Why would they even say that unless it was important...? Anyone got a clue...?
