Is anyone considering not being the first in line to see Prometheus?

I'm old enough to remember the responses to "Alien"...people (allegedly) leaving the cinema only to vomit in the bathrooms due to certain scenes ...
Is anyone honest enough to admit that the "Milburn/Fifield" audio has them somewhat apprehensive? While not necessarily gory, it sounds disturbing...
Are there any of a sensitive* nature among us?

I refuse to be Fifield for Halloween (SamHaim), I would need a beard and that is against my principles hahaha!

see, SaintsSinphony knows how crappy most theaters are and how absolutely stupid and violent people are no matter what the movie is.
i have never known about a theater like the one i just moved about a mile from so i am just in awe about a place where i can watch a movie without the threat of being assaulted.
i was even threatened when i went to see a PG kids movie at midnight because i was bored (and a bit drunk), it was some crazy lady with a baby. really?
someone else told her to leave because her baby wouldnt stop screaming. this kid wasnt even a year old. she got up and was screaming at that sane person when i interrupted....
the most i could say was "wtf is wrong with you, your infant doesnt want to be in a loud theater at midnight thats why it is crying!!! go home you freakin werido".
she started yelling at me until an actual crazy person in the theater yelled "leave or i will kick your baby like a football".
she ran out crying and didnt come back.
i left early and demanded my money back just because i didnt see the damn movie because that ordeal was insane. they refused to give me a refund but gave me a free ticket to one free movie at the same crap theater :/

The only movies that ever really made me cringe was the HOSTEL movies. I love sci fi violence. I want to soak up everything Prometheus has to offer!

Yes. I am going to see the film, but I will not likely see it on opening night. I don't plan to stand in any long lines or camp out in front of the theater. I'll probably go on Saturday during the day. Since I work for a cinema chain, I won't have to pay for my ticket or stand in line. It's funny - I watch less movies now then I did before I started working at the theater. Go figure.

Yes LV426JGFPM, we got it! ;)
At the cinema where I am going to see Prometheus the tickets for the midnight opening are already sold out, so I don't think there will be need for anybody to go and camp outside or wait in line. Most people have their tickets already, so it should be just a matter of walking in.
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.

Anyone else a stickler for projectionist details? Make sure they focus and frame up the picture properly during the TRAILERS. On big event movies, I almost always have to get up and go out to the lobby to have them call up to the booth (or send someone up) to re-frame the image or adjust the focus for the whole screen or even to bring the curtauins out of the way properly for a widescreen picture. Amazing.
Please get it RIGHT for once, theater operators!

The day that Prometheus hits theaters, the full plot synopsis is going to hit the web like wildfire. I'll have to extremely careful not to read anything on that day, so that I don't spoil the plot.

I'm gonna have to see it as soon as it comes out so I can get back on here and take it apart with you guys! If I wait till the following weekend to see it, I'll at least need to stay way off this site, huh.

The audio clip is chilling, but wild horses couldn't keep me away from the theater on this one. It's only sci-fi after all. The things that truly disturb me have to do with real-life monsters. I'm especially sensitive to anything involving children. There was a scene in Gone Baby Gone (just before Casey Affleck blew the pedophile's brains out) that had me shook-up for a while. But sci-fi I can handle, at least since I've been an adult.

@ Frantz
lived in a couple different countries an many U.S. states and not the good parts lol. right now i am in oklahoma (not mu choice). fun fact, there is a big human trafficing sex slave operation coming through this state.
anyway, id say the positive aspect of constantly moving to so many crap areas is a thick skin and some kickass street smarts.
but frantz, this is why i am going to the fancy shmancy theater instead of a local mad max style thunder dome.
if anyone makes too much noise i will be the crazy person in the theater!
