PROMETHEUS Trailer Preview Screenshots

I was going to say the same thing. It looks almost elastic.

thanks to the ´mutant animated GIF´..much better.. yeah, looks larger than life at least. plot, When I watch the trailer now, I get the impression SOMETHING JUST GOES TERRIBLY WRONG when they come back to the P, the guy got infected ( Kane reference) and goes berserk. The scene looks like in a hangar maybe, when they return.. His suit and helmet look not very pre-Xeno, just burned whatever..

Everyone else see the guy with the shattered helmet on the ground in the background?

to say that i was S T U N N E D to see the new images from this teaser would be a definite understatement. so many cool (albeit too few) new images i was treated to aside from that AWESOME looking spacecraft, i noticed, that it seems that (possibly) the citadel structure they explored, seems to have exploded, (or imploded?) due to the new shot of the away vehicles and the PROMETHEUS craft being overtaken buy that dust cloud, just like Shaw was, perhaps from the exploding debris of the collapsed structure? the ringed planet that is in the back round of the PROMETHEUS as it descends downwards from the sky the red laser mapping orbs, the dead crewman, and that "thing" that is in a Weyland surface suit tossing around that other crew member like a rag doll and of course - - the derelict ship flying vertical... wow....just....WOW! aside from it being a LONG wait until June, it's now going to a be LONG wait until this new trailer hits the net aaaaaargh!

That mutant things right arm in particular looks massive. Like people are saying it certainly looks like he is turning into a Xeno.

right after the scene with the red balls, here can be seen a red surveillance light going off, on teh left you can clearly see an inner tunnel of the building. http://imageshack.us/f/838/prometheuspreview108004.jpg/ it seems they activated some kind of mechanism..then it explodes?

All I can say is it's about friggen' time we got something like this :-D

@EGR101 "Our beloved Derelict flies upright after all..." I'll have to disagree with this, to me it looks like it's in horizontal position (and hovering in place?). If it were in vertical position, the arms should look a lot longer in my opinion. As we now see the base of the structure (We have seen the figure of structures top part in 1st trailer, when hangar door was opening), I'm quite certain to claim that the structure will resemble the Harkonnen Castle design done by Giger (and later used in Pioneer commercial) at least in general shape. The arms will most probably be missing. Prometheus being so Large too, I can't imagine it ramming the SJ ship. Or if it rams and drops the SJ ship, it must have been only cratch or something as a ship of that size would have left much bigger hole in SJ ship (which is about same size or 1/2 or 1/3 larger than Prometheus, judging from the pictures seen so far). My guess is they launch escape pod at it, or shoot it with some weapon. Can't wait for Saturday!

@ Ghorgul... 1. Why would the derelict be hovering. 2. The temple and its likeness was spotted months ago by yours truly. 3. The wreckage in the background of the rolling Derelict looks identical to elements of the Prometheus.

The balls are scanners, used to map the cave, so you can then have a 100 percent accurate real time holographic model of your environment. The mutant is what really has me wondering. This is obviously the same guy who jumped off the rover, but he looks taller here and his arms and legs are longer. Hes definitely got augmented strength too. Totally intrigued by this dude! Nice GIF by the way EGR 101 I love the lighting in the scene above. The colors etc. Wonder who the bloody mess on the floor is?

God the anticipation!

The GIF looks awesome you can see the man with the broken/cracked helmet. Seems to be the guy we see in the other trailer shooting flames as it appears he's been killed and dropped his flamethrower. Unless the person being thrown had it, any idea who is the mutant and who's being thrown? I also agree his right arm seems to end in a had with claws or elongated fingers. I can't wait!! What is happening?!?

Wasn't there a "leak" and/or verification, that there would be a "simplier" form of the classic xenomorph, perhaps making an appreance in the film?

Hi guys, first post on this site, just wanted to point out one thing nobody has mentioned yet the bloody mess of a crew member left on the floor in the GIF tells me one thing that this EPIC movie will be rated R. What do you think my fellow Promethians?

There's blood on the wall behind the 2 crew shooting at the creature.

DarthSpock, Yes there was... Membrane and Scidley, Those pictures are excellent.. I still think that that this "Xeno" is in the first trailer.... lol.. haa haaaaaaaah!

@Snorkelbottom 1. I don't know why it would be hovering. I watched the (very short!) clip several times and it looks like it's not moving too much. Hopefully we see more about this scene on Saturday! 2. Ok! Nice find! I did make the same find independently, after you. In this forum or the other there was just discussion about it being possible that the top part only happens to resemble 'Harkonnen Castle' design. But as we now see the base of the same structure, it resembles the designs drawn by Giger: [img]http://www.duneinfo.com/unseen/images/giger/harkonnen-castle-1.jpg[/img] So I think the new trailer/picture confirms your Original earlier finding about Harkonnen Castle. Funny thing about Gigers Harkonnen Castle drawings: At my parents house there are german versions of Dune books with the Giger Harkonnen Castle design in the covers, there are these atleast in 2 different books. I haven't read the books ever myself (in english, german or finnish) but I've been led to believe that the books don't describe the Harkonnen Castle to look like this. So if this Giger design looks very much like itself on this movie, it is kind of problematic because the same design being shown on Dune bookcovers makes the structure to belong in Dune-canon. 3. It might be from Prometheus then, I don't know. Maybe it just scratches the SJ ship? Or maybe Prometheus is shot to pieces by the SJ after it fires on it? But the Prometheus is so Huge itself that I don't see it ramming the SJ ship and exploding to pieces while leaving only small dent on SJ ship (The ramming has been probably the most popular theory on this forum from what I've read) This picture shows the size of Prometheus: [url=http://img825.imageshack.us/img825/4192/prometheuspreview108005.jpg]Prometheus + 6-wheeler[/url]

That "fake" script describes this scene y'know - skip to cargo bay with dead guy lying on the ground!! and two crew with their pistols drawn? description of monster "The back of it's head is long, thick, slimy and hairy and shaped like a cigar." This new trailer scene was only released yesterday The leaked script was only released yesterday No way that could have been guessed - you guys are going to have to start taking that script more seriously

The gun the floor was mentioned a bit ago and it does look like there's blood all over and also could be why the "mutants" hand appears to have a redish tint to it. obviously something is afoot. @ enderwiggin...what do you mean "you" people? Jk love that part had to get it in there haha

@Snorkelbottom 1. I don't know. It just doesn't really look like it's moving (though the clip is very short, so I could easily be mistaken). 2. That's really nice. You didn't like me commenting about Harkonnen Castle, or what's the point? We do see the base of the structure for the first time now, and the general shape one can see there resembles some of the Gigers drawings: [url=http://www.duneinfo.com/unseen/images/giger/harkonnen-castle-1.jpg]The base looks round with very steep sides, very similar to what we see in trailer[/url] EDIT: Add Also, atleast in some forums there has been some debate about if the 'Harkonnen Castle' is the "shape" that's on there, so it really isn't fact until we see more. But the new bit we saw now adds more to the case of it resembling 'Harkonnen Castle' 3. I don't see Prometheus ramming itself to pieces against SJ ship, sorry. I know it's a popular theory, but the Prometheus is Huge (Still smaller than SJ ship though): [url=http://imageshack.us/f/825/prometheuspreview108005.jpg/]Here you can get a really good approx for the size of Prometheus[/url] See the armored car/6-wheeler as little fly on the road. HumanityFTW thought in other thread there could be some ship-to-ship combat, and this seems to be rather reasonable suggestion I think.

That second script is looking rather intriguing now…

its a biomechanoid suit...he probably got that green glow-ish acid crap on his face from the canister, most likely a wayland android, just like the one in Alien that got sprayed by a xenomorph and went haywire, trying to kill ripley.

So it looks like are 'Mutant guy' takes out two people. That is assuming the guy lying on the floor is dead (judging by the blood I think it's safe to say he is). It's just a case of if the poor sod he throws in this clip survives or not. It looks like a hefty throw so I am gonna assume he does not survive. As a side note I wonder if the guns that the guy's in the background are weilding are gonna do much against this mutant man. Looks like he might take a good few rounds to put him down.

*SPOILERS FROM LEAKED SCRIPT*.....................................................................................@Enderwiggin......... .....the description of the thing in the script also has a load of blood sucking tentacles, which the creature in both trailer cuts from that scene does not have. Also, its a creature escaped from a cage in this script, not a former crew member so obviously wearing a suit as in both the teaser trailer and this preview. Every detail you suppose could not have been guessed is definitley decuctible from the shots, pics and months of fan speculation on sites like this one. It's a fake guys, come on..........

Looking at the GIF a bit more I noticed that the mutants left hand seems to have its claws empailing the crewman. I'm on my phone at work however so I can't get a clear look. Anyone able to help me out with this one?

I found a screen cap that is probably the last frame of our mutant friend in this teaser...it's kind of small, and I wasn't able to find it any larger, but it does show more of the mutant's body, so..... [img]http://wpc.556e.edgecastcdn.net/80556E/img.site/PH5Gzz4FwGym8d_1_m.jpg[/img]

Craigamore, Don't you just love it.. all blurry when we can get a good view.. lol

I know danrald.....I tried finding a larger version, but I haven't been able to....it's maddening.

craigamore, Mine are all pretty much this size.. regardless, they still don't give much more insight..

Thanks for trying danrald

That's Sean Harris (Fifield) with the geospatial mapping "orbs". He played a real bastard in the Red Riding Trilogy.

I love your name Ralphie....first thing I think of is, "You'll shoot your eye out..you'll shoot your eye out." Classic.........and thanks for the insight...I hadn't known who he was.

Everything looks very epic, and the Planet looks like a prehistoric world that has just cooled from its volcanic activity, ie a much earlier genesis. And the ship is really huge, wow, I'm really excited about all this. With respect to mutant insurance is defending his friend from the right side (which is burning). And has that long claw on his left arm, like freddy krueger. On the other hand, the scene seems very familiar, like something that had we seen in "The Thing".

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.
