Better not a new trailer!

I believe, the trailers so far, are totally awesome and enough! I believe 20th Century Fox has already completed a reaction analysis of the audiences and needs to do nothing more... Probaly, this kind of waiting for the real thing and without any new revealing trailer would maximize demand of the product. I go with it...but...I would appreciate something like say a 1':15" little teaserino with some more dangerously revealing of secrets, just a few days before the premiere of the movie, which would upscale expectations, and would give nobody the time to assess anything solid about the film.... What do you think?

I think they'll release another 'definitive' trailer within a week of the release date, just to fan the flames and really get everybody's attnetion, and perhaps the 'media' section of the Weyland website will be unlocked and there will be a few videos from the marketing campaign on there. Wouldn't surprise me to see new footage at all.

More trailers you say, with spoilers you say?! That's like having your cake and eating it to or whatever. The point is the people who chop these trailers up basically do a great Spark notes job of telling you everything about the movie, with zero left come premiere date in 2 minutes or less. In this day and age with fan websites and pcs with software which can slow down videos to milli seconds, you can squeeze so much info out of a single frame. So far with three trailers, especially the spoiler packed international trailer, eagle eye reporters have even been able to point out xenos and huge plot points. That being said, why would you want more trailers when so much has been already analyzed under microscopes?

I think trailers are enough. I would rather here news for next prometheus sequel or something like that. I don't want blade runner reboot because original was better, so yes another part for prometheus instead of trailers.
Uncertainty is the only certainty there is, and knowing how to live with insecurity is the only security.

@Westy and centrosphere: I feel this is most possible the happen too @Frantz: that would be nice and surely a good way to move a little away from the film..so, you are suggesting virals... @MolokoPlus: That's why I also believe, the 20th Century Fox trailer editors and marketing managers know this, and allow only footage that won't be that revealing of anything solid.....hopefully... @Sky: next Prometheus sequel is a fact. I believe they will release after meticulous studying of the first movie acceptance. As for Blade Runners, I love the film too and I don't think a reboot would be good...a sequel maybe...

I hope we DON'T see another trailer.....That's the problem these days...they show TOO MUCH.....I think the teasers have been great...and think about it.....we've only seen less than 5 or so minutes of the film.....
