Frame stepped through all the trailers I can think of including the IMAX but can't find that particular shot.

Maybe, maybe...I don´t like it. "Evil corporation" was a novelty back in the seventies and still has its charms (given the 2008 debacle), but the "mad scientist" trope is too much backwards. But...why these guys are wearing their helmets inside Prometheus? Lack of atmosphere or fear of contamination?

It's almost looking photoshoped to me now but I sware I did see something like it somewhere... I am looking for an explanation not confirmation. The face of the guy in the clips I have looks different. I am starting to think that two old men come through that door.

Biomechanic, I believe so. And another still photo you missed. One of the man jumping in mid- air onto Shaw. That's him too, I think...

The first 2 pictures I posted might be the same guy and the last 2 might be the same guy but I am not convinced they are all the same guy. I also think mowhawk mutant guy is a whole other ball of wax. I do think this new picture looks like Weyland though.

The guy painting Weyland's toenails in the fourth pic - his henchman. Isn't that guy the closest shooting bodyguard to Weyland in the other pic? Agree mohawk has got to be Fifield or someone else...

The guy painting his toenails is David and I think they are using whiteout. Old man Weyland is the future's Howard Hughes.

@Biomechanic. Haha, yeah, true. (There are jars of all kinds of saved things on alien ship too, re: HH) But I meant the other guy next to David and the wheelchair, the guy with the tuff buzz cut. He's the shooter in the pic above.

His medicine cabinet is actually scarier than anything found in the temple. Yeah I don't know who buzz cut guy is I guess it could be that hired goon.

Hey, I had not seen that, so that does explain a lot, after all the beginning when they talk about a King, it is pretty obvious that Weyland is that King, as he has an empire and he is obviously about to bite it. He probably is going to try and steal from the Space Jockeys materials that will prolong his life and basically it blows up in everyone's faces. Maybe Weyland becomes a SJ and is the one in the Seat at the end and its his dead corpse we see in Alien, that would be funny

I'm willing to bet the old guy is Mr. Weyland, and I still think that somehow he becomes the Space Jockey we've seen in the trailer (sans the suit, since we all know it's part of the chair or something). Just one question, though.......why are they painting his toenails? Does he want to look pretty when he becomes a god? Or is it just some health-related thing (apparently, toe-nail painting is implemented for health reasons based on something related to some toe-nail infection or something)?
