Well In my case, my favorite is the scene of the Big head and the space jockey sitting in his reclining chair...

I love the homage to the original Alien trailer.
Ridley Scott will eventually tell us how the Queen was born.
Right now we have the Deacon; coming soon the Mercury, the May and the Taylor.

for me, i have to go back to the teaser trailer that came out back in
late December of last year, the brief overhead shot of the Engineer's
ship rolling upwards as it had just crashed down
that image above all for me was the money shot

In the international trailer, when we see Shaw standing (in pain, I guess) and also hear voices and screams on the background.
Also, the scene (from Imax teaser) when we see Shaw waking up, then she grabs something and hits someone or some creature in hazmat (?) suit.

For me the scale and chaos of the Croissant/ derelict in the background and the tiny figures of the crew running for their life's all the while the surface around them is erupting .

Ruth, I think she is using a loose restraint strap to give him what for. Looks like an average person in that suit but I can't tell what actor it is.

I agree that the entire first trailer is the best "part" ;) It's shrouded in mystery, and much more dramatic than any other trailer released thereafter. Actually, I kind of wish they didn't make anymore trailers and just released images. I REALLY want to be surprised...but the temptation of knowing more is so overwhelming...which I'm sure you all feel as well ( I mean, we're on this website for starters).
I think my favorite individual scene is the one where the other crew members (unnamed) are in the SJ chair room and that GIANT hand comes out of nowhere. I think it's in the UK trailer? Can't remember. But that scared the socks off of me...the hand, the one guy panic-shooting, and the woman paralyzed in fear (I originally thought that was Noomi).

Biomechanic, Yeah, might be a character we don't know yet, but still, the scene looks great IMO.

The very start of the guy looking at his hand seeing his body change. Just a wild guess here but i believe that guy is david!! The black lines to me is the body turning into a xeno. If you look at the top of his head its like breaking down changing if you well. Thoughts anyone thanks:)

That was my thought, too Tigre. Someone on another post mentioned that the "perfect being" that Ash described was actually part android. Either that or it is the scene related to the "beginning of time" sequence.
Does anyone else immediately think of the Xfiles when they see the black "goo"?

These two "favorite" posts are fun, Shambhala. Thank you for something a little more upbeat!
The first time I saw the head in the trailer (I don't remember which one). It still gives me chills.

'Prometheus has landad' and everything Janek say's basically, he's blatantly got all the best lines so I will be sad when he buys it! But my favourite scene that got me a little wet was the SJ chair rising from the floor MMMMMMMM GET ME A TOWELL LOL!!

I'm fairly certain that this guy in the suit is Chance played by Emun Elliot....

Well, I like in fact two scenes...the first is when the crew is ordered to "shoot all of them...kill everything"...man! Just imagine what they are being attacked from...must be a major mess...And the second is where a suited crew member appears to attempt to pass through a portal like thing...dematerializing him somehow...

No wonder she whacks him. He appears to be attempting to 'examine' her behind.
My favourite scene is really her wielding an axe, it contrasts so well with all the cheesy grinning on the Isle of Skye.

That's Janek, right? I mean, in the centre with a flame-thrower. He looks cool in that scene.
And about Chance. Interesting and maybe you're right. It makes me wonder what was he trying to do when he was standing near Elizabeth before she hit him..

For me it has got to be the transforming crew member who is tossing another crewmember in the air with his elongated fingers in his body.
This moment says it all for me.
From memory, this was from the mini teaser of the trailers released in March and we had not seen any new material for ages....
I think this guy's actions will count for the most fatalities out of the 17?
Lets just hope the story and pace of the movie live up to these classic trailer moments?

So many terrific shots to choose from...but two of the inital images that I loved from the trailers were the shot of the back of the space-suited Shaw(?) looking up at the vertically standing 'derelict'...and the empty 'space-jockey' seat rising up from it's base. They both screamed iconic 'ALIEN'-like imagery to me at the time.
Another shot I loved was the glowing red 'mapping' orb receding into the distance in the cave.
