the new trailer has really allowed for fresh thoughts into a new direction of what we previous thought. This trailer has audio and visual clues that open the discussion for new story arcs and perspectives....... 1.for me the audio of hearing shaw saying "get it out of me" really helps me being i was a fan who didnt particularly think the scene of her in the medipod was her having something removed as much as having something put in. 2. the glimpse we get of the thing that invades someones suit is quit eye opening also since we do have previous audio of someone sounding like hollloway say "its in my suit, its in my suit", but in the clip it does not appear to be holloway who extends their hand and is ultimately attacked by this organism 3. the exploding space jockey head is interesting if you freeze the scene their are four figures in the room shaw, david , vickers and an unidentified female....may be ford. this scene gives way to the timeline based on previous scenes....for example we see shaw gets blown away by a sand storm...it appears she has a bag...may be containing the head in her hand so we can assume the sand storm is prior to the scene with the exploding head the continuity of the trailers lead me to believe that they explore the terrian more than once it is an exploration crew 4. i dont think the destination was earth for the ship as the trailers lead us to believe as we all know trailers are meant to be misleading ....purposely .....the clips were just spliced together very nicely it is obvious that there is a temple setting and a hanger set i dont think they are the same...since in some scene we see the planet to have an elaborate landscape like a mini city 5. if we look carefully we do see the cyro statis coffins or whatever they are called around what we have labeled the control panel where david reportedly maps the destination being earth , but there are talks of the explores encountering a survior from some race....who is this thing right..... to be continued

5. now there are those who believe the space jockeys or whoever was running in hollowgraphic images were leaving for whatever reason the question here is going to be why didnt they escape the ship is obviously still intact as we see it fully operational from the trailers and if there is a sole surivor from this race why hadnt he been escape before the prometheus arrive??

I think those dead space jockeys are the escaping ones in the hologram. Perhaps the lone survivor killed them for whatever reason.

The three holographic-running Space Jockeys are likely the same three SJ who appears on the hologram inside the control room while David is watching the planets. They're kind of telling their story to David, probably a recorded message done before they died (I bet the dead corpses found at the temple are theirs.) I wonder if the alive SJ who appears later had anything to do with those deaths or he's just simply a survivor.

You didn't comment on Vikers. Being/ not being an andriod. I never hoped or bit into her not being human. After the new and even newer releases she is defently human. And the part of having a agenda, all of them would have something to benifit from being on the adventure. Pattens, Book deals, lectures. She has a real concern for the crew.

Why can't the live "space jockey" be Fifiled fully mutated? That's my theory because it certainly doesn't look like any of them survived. I think David will be the cause of their ship coming to life.

i didnt mention vickers being an android cause i dont think she is. from one of the interviews where ridley is coaching theorin to move in the shadows and act this way is foreshawdowing for something but not her being an android. i do believe their is another android on board and i believe david knows who it is.

All I know is that when I played the Verizon game and gave my answer to the question it kinda-sorta confirmed to me that Vickers was an android, but then again the site probably wasn't reading any typed responses and giving everyone those final sweepstakes entries. For what it's worth, my answer was to the effect: "Because Vickers is an android and needs recharging". "...needs recharging?" WTF? I thought maybe the earlier models were not as sophisticated as Ash/Bishop/Call and might have needed the 'ol fashioned plug outlet to recharge. Having seen more trailers and discussions here, however, I don't think I was correct. I think Vickers had to get back to the ship (specifically the room using lots of energy) because old Mr. Weyland needed his diaper changed (evidently the 'call nurse' button consumes huge amounts of electricity)!!! j/k

@abordoli yea it has been pretty clear that Vickers has the best room all the high tech gadgets, that would support her being the eyes and ears of Mr. Weyland. it also gives weight to the distain look she gives as the hologram of weyland says david is his son (12 min preview of film....ps havent seen it ....wish i was that lucky....london media bastards...lol)...may be its like some others have mention may be she is the daughter or grand daugter of weyland or some sort of connection

Also think Shaw is speaking to Vickers when she says there'll be no home to go back to...sounds like she's trying to get her on side, and after being chased by a crashing derelict, I think that she comes good - android or not Still no Weyland in the trailers, I'm sure that will be a big reveal, and no flashback scenes with Shaws father....that will be interesting. I still can't figure out the upside of showing the Prometheus crash into the derelict, or whether Janek is at the controls (we have seen images of him in his spacesuit in the temple) so that's still all a mystery just for even being in the trailers - these would be climactic scenes in most other movies

@fanboy79 The space I believe we are referring to as Vicker's room looks almost exactly like the image of the [url=https://www.weylandindustries.com/security]Life Boat[/url] on the weylandindustries.com/security page..

@jp i do remember seeing a scene with janek next to shaw and holloway i think and we do see him in a space suit at some point ...so you never know he may not be at the controls...but the scene of him screaming kinda does imply that....i completely forgot about shaws father may be he's connected to weyland some how or was apart of the previous mission and passed some senstive info to his daughter that created the lore of her exploring things and.....sorry i start to ramble....lol

With regards to Weyland.... Guy Pierce did say he was in the movie for 5 minutes but if he was in it longer you think he is going to tell us? He is the biggest star of the cast, next is Fassbender and then Charlize Theron. I guess why book Guy Pierce just for 5 minutes, i am sure if he was asked would you want to be in a movie by Ridley but then told he would get just 5 minutes and then a 2 min Viral i am sure he would want a bigger slice of the cake. Saying that Arnie was in Terminator Salvation.... but then again not so.

@bigdave ...i dont know dude guy pierce isnt that big of a star, definitely not more than theron or more accomplished, fassbender definitely set to surpass both of them as is noomi i do know from those who saw and posted about the 12 min relesed to the privilleged london media( hate those guys :( !!!) there is a holographic message left for the crew by weyland explaining somethings and giving david a brief introduction as his son lacking a soul and some pretty mean glares from vickers at weyland or david i am not sure

Yeah i am not talking about potential. I mean that say up untill a few years ago Guy Pierce was a bigger A-List. Not knocking the others, as far as they go i think Fassbender has a massive future ahead of him, i mean actors like Mark Wahlberg are in simular league to Gu Pierce but i think Fasbender will become as big a star as Christian Bale. I mean he is tipped to become the new Robocop and even rumours of him being the Ridler in a new Batman movie. I think he would suit both roles perfectly.

Here's what I think will happen after seeing the trailers: Opening shows man being created by the engineers then fast forward to Shaw /Holloway'd discovery. cut to present day showing the crew waking(probably show a few mins of David moving around the ship like the scene we saw of basketball shot on bike, then the mission briefing with Weyland holo. Vickers speaks with them when they land before they leave. They find the site and then the massive head room. David messes around(starmap and holo jockey blackbox) I think two teams are moving at the same time as one is safe(david, shaw). all hell breaks loose when cobra attacks leaving dead crew and maybe one crewmember infected bigtime by spitting acid on helmet?(trailer showed them coming up ramp with him)possibly they hurry back to save him. they take the helmet/head back to examine and then possibly return again only this time more infected? Also I'm thinking Vickers wants to return with Shaw or the crew infected since Weyland would want a xeno. Ships collide but does jockey die and when does he decide to awaken and why is still a mystery yet...
