PROMETHEUS Trailer Preview Screenshots

I think that those glowing red orbs are not for maping, I think that they are the 2023 version of the magic 8 ball, but now they need the 2nd to confirm the first ball.

@Danrald i see what you mean with the blood now that im home and off my phone. Im checking it out the red smears seem to be marking on the ship maybe? thought it was blood on the wall, looks odd though still.

Omg! That thing looks really creepy, especially the long fingers/claws. It'll be a blast to see a human slowly transform into that and beyond (The Fly, anyone?). It kinda looks more frightening than original Alien already.

The Derelict is not just hovering straight up. It's ascending straight up to leave orbit and Prometheus is trying to catch up with it from a distance flying vertical. I think the Derelict eventually levels out like a flat horse shoe. The reason I say this is because there is some speculation in the ship to ship battle thread that the Derelict has a gun turret on it on one side. I think so too but if the ship was level then it would be able to swivel the turret in a 360 degree rotation. Makes sense. If the ship flew standing straight up all the time then the turret would be useless if trying to fire on a enemy on the other side of the ship. Sorry to get off topic. Now getting to the mutant. I blew the gif up on my 17 inch screen and I could definitely see a elongated vertical big head on him with a big mouth if you look real close and he seems to be mutating into a tall skinny legged proto xeno. Look at his exoskeleton knee caps under his suit in motion. His fingers are long as a average mans forearm.

What is interesting to note is that the mutated humanoid with the huge head would seem to fit in perfectly into the Space Jockey suit. It has that same Admiral Ackbar conehead shape. Could it be that whatever infected the human is mutating him into a Space Jockey?

I must confess I wasn't that impressed with the ship's design (it seemed to me just an over-sized X-wing)... until I saw this teaser-for-the-trailer! Now, it's up there in my "Best looking Sci-Fi Ships" list... with only one little hiccup: how come those big FTL engines also serve as the ship's VTOL system?

@ Ghorgul... Firstly welcome to the site, but... 2. Why would I be bothered about you mentioning Harkonnen Castle, furthermore why are you trying to insult, as you have done so with Craigomore on another thread. Have we wronged you in a past life, do you not like the staff on this site. Please refrain from insulting people because their opinion differs to yours regarding theories, ideas or grammar. This is a forum, check your egos and tempers at the door. Back on topic - the footage seen in the first trailer looks a hell of a lot more like Harkonnen Castle than the base of the temple shown in the new teaser for the second trailer. The shape in the original trailer really can't be anything else, and I haven't really seen anyone on these forums say otherwise. 3. We see the prometheus nice and intact, then we see and exploding derelict which then rolls as it crashes, and as it does so we see wreckage identical to elements from the Prometheus in the background. The chain of events is logical and simple. The aerial combat idea is a possibility, but a possibility with less evidence than the one above.

2. I'm sorry. Your way of expressing your comment of my Harkonnen Castle comment felt somewhat like "This has been discussed earlier... Be quiet" You wrote: "The temple and its likeness was spotted months ago by yours truly" That doesnt come out as really neutral to me. But English is not my 1st language so it's probable I've misunderstood your meaning. Base of the Temple-structure seems to support its resemblance with Harkonnen Castle. Although we will later see what the head part will look like, it could have some surprising features, I think. My guess is also that the hands will be missing. There was some people in this forum or some another saying that it could be coincidental to resemble H. castle shape. Or maybe it's a little trap set up by Mr. Scott to fool with us a little? I'm of course more of the same opinion as you on this Temple, I'm just throwing out some other possibilities. 3. I'll have to respectfully disagree with you on this one :) Saturday or June 8th will show who was closer to the truth, or if we both are totally of-the-map, then Mr. Scott really has succeeded.

Since you guys are discussing this, thought I'd throw up some pictures and a reference to [url=http://www.prometheus-movie.com/community/forums/topic/436]Snork's post[/url] from December 25 on the temple. [img]http://i1075.photobucket.com/albums/w439/Membrane1/temple3.jpg[/img]

Shane, Biomechanic has a great comparison on the 3rd (I think) page of this thread. This should be a whole new thread.. but I hate the idea of it being LV-426.

nope I say it 100% is LV-426 100% !!! There ain't a doubt in my mind...and I think his rational is that you would have to be a complete idiot after 33+ years of wating for the next chapter in this thing to see that trailer and it's images and not realize that it was by yourself...sorry...not calling anyone any names here just saying it like it is I think and once agin, I will be the first one ion here to admit how wrong I was if this isn't the case.!!!

So, am I the only one thinking that Ridley is now lying about the planet not being LV426? The large planet in the background with the rings makes it hard to think he isn't [there are a few screen captures beyond the one in this thread clearly showing the planet with rings in the background]. Alien picture for reference: [url=http://avp.wikia.com/index.php?title=Acheron_(LV-426)ℑ=Nostromo_LV426-jpg][img]http://images4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20100731064049/avp/images/3/31/Nostromo_LV426.jpg[/img][/url]

Another one for reference: [url=http://avp.wikia.com/index.php?title=Acheron_(LV-426)ℑ=ImagesCATQ3D9N-jpg][img]http://images4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20120210171052/avp/images/a/a2/ImagesCATQ3D9N.jpg[/img][/url] I got my head taken off at the AVPgalaxy forums for saying Ridley was lying about everything to try to keep it secret. After the Tedtalk leak was proven to be real I thought people might be more open to the ideas of them bullshitting us along. The other option is that he is screwing with us again, and put that there to bait people. Funny, I can actually see them doing stuff like that. the old bait and switch.

For what it's worth...I think Ridley's been playin' everyone since day 1

I think Sir Scott has no choice but to play everyone and pray nothing gets leaked. So far they are doing an awesome job at keeping us all guessing. I am actually a fan of the disinformation they are providing us with. Once in a while they slip in something real to keep us on our toes.

Spartacus, We should write our own fake script.. lol

I was gonna make a new thread but concluded to just toss it here as so many things are getting locked. Is there a search function yet? Am I an idiot and just can't find it? I'm indifferent to it being LV-426. I went through a phase where i really wanted it to be, then a phase where I didn't just to piss of the AvP fans. Now I don't care as long as the movie is at least interesting. I can't remember the last mainstream sci-fi film I was actually excited about so to me it is all just kinda gravy.

@ Ghorgul - Apology accepted, and as English isn't your first language we will all have to be a little more forgiving of your comments, but please refrain from insults in future, it does none of us any good. Glad to see we are in agreement over the temple, as many people are and I do agree with you that the arms probably won't feature. As for the collision between the Prometheus and the Derelict time will tell, but I have a gut feeling there is a collision. @ Danrald - normally I would offer my services for a fake script but I don't know if I want to. What if mine ends up better than the film LOL.

Maybe the balls are the glow sticks of the future and they are all just at an Giger themed rave?

Regards the coloured balls and the chap tossing them about.... Its the Space Jockey Christmas Show!
