Stranded

MemberOvomorphMay 26, 20121977 Views31 RepliesOk, I don't think it's any secret that the Prometheus collides with the Juggernaut to keep it from taking off. We also see in the featurette that Vickers escapes in a escape pod and you can also see several other crew members still alive on the surface.
Seems pretty obvious they are now stranded on what we all consider LV426 with no way home.
So what happens to them?
The Nostromo, Sulaco and Colony crews never find any escape pod or human remains.
Seems to me the stranded crew would further investigate the crashed Juggernaut. What could they find inside? Perhaps a cargo? And their own demise?
Thoughts.

This is classic!
Ripley: When we throw the switches, how long before the ship blows?
Parker: Ten minutes.
Ripley: No bullshit?
Parker: We ain't outta here in ten minutes, we won't need no rocket to fly through space.

Well, i am pretty sure, they will be bored on that lonely planet and will start beeing "jehovas witnesses", means they will never die (like j.w. still belive - but one after the other jehova's witnesses dies, though watchtower company said in the 20th of the last century "MILLIONS NOW LIVING WILL NEVER DIE"..
anyway - enjoy..

@donholbrookjr: The fact that Prometheus is set on LV-223 didn't get through to you yet..??

The sj ships crashes to the planet, they(remaining crew) decide to put one of those canisters inside the ship to kill off the remaining sj crew (if any), they he/ she repeals out of the vag opening that we see in the tv spot trailer.....notice the sac, on his/her hip.....fast forward to prometheus 2 or alien......can go either way

I've taken part in many many discussion boards in my day and it's always confused me as to why some people feel the need to be so rude. But I digress...
In a recent interview with David Levy (concept artist & designer) he said :
The action in 'Prometheus' takes place on the same planetoid as in 'Alien'
and 'Aliens'?
Yes. It is the same planetary system, [u]and we discover the planet at
another time in its history, long before the period of 'Alien' and 'Aliens'.
[/u]The idea was to describe a volcanic-formed planet whose activity had
ceased, a dead world.
NONE of us truly know what is going to go down in this movie unless you just happen to have Ridleys #? It's all speculation at this point.

donholbrookjr, you will find rude people on all forums.
Converse with the polite folks, ignore the rude.
May 26, 2012
They said the last 8 minutes will tie into Alien a bit, or we would see familiar territory....
This is a great thread because I was also wondering what would happen to the survivors on the ground. They would have to get out of the sandstorms, look for a food source... So it would not be long before they entered another one of those temples regardless of dangers because they would be worried about survival...
This does Not bode well for Anyone staying behind.
The only thing I can think of is if David is still alive, he seems to have figured out how to use the equipment, so he could fly Shaw, Vickers and himself out of there in an SJ ship,
Only thing I can think of, there were other ships under the other temples I think.
I would be happy if Vickers survives over any of them, she is the new ripely not shaw!

If you're referring to [i]my[/i] comment, it wasn't meant to be rude nor personal. But if you claim to be a huge fan and to have been around on so many forums and discussions it strikes me even more that you're not up to date with your facts.
Ridley Scott himself talks about LV-223 in one of the featurettes, and it's even visible in a simulation of its orbit. That was over a month ago. Both planetiods are in the same system called Zeta2 Reticuli, and therefore share the same universe, not just locationwise but on many other levels. Hope that clarified it.

LOL. The only [b]FACT[/b] I know is that none of us have seen this movie.
All the discussions here are [b]speculation[/b], including mine.
Yes I know that LV223 has been mentioned. It has also been contradicted.
[b]This is all for fun[/b]. We're all just speculating about a movie that we're stoked about.
I'm not getting drawn into a debate over who is the biggest fan or who has the biggest fact(s)! :)
Let's just all enjoy.
Nuff said.
May 26, 2012
Sure, friend. If you want it to be LV-426 so desperately, then so be it. I just hope you won't be massively disappointed, when you realise there's no young Ripley and a different derelict ship in it. Maybe in the end you're better off than most of us here, with so many extra surprises in stall for you! LOL

All the humanoids you see in the trailer so far may be originally human. Whether or not they belong to the crew is another question. The SJ/God/Engineers etc may all be dead on the planet. The real/other Gods/Higher Beings may yet to reveal themselves (set up for PROMETHEUS 2 : THE BALLAD OF THE GOD ENGINEERS?)
May 26, 2012
Believe me donholbrookjr, I want it to be the same planet/planetoid/moon/whatever from Alien cause that makes a definite tie in!
Peace & love to all :)

again, this is where i feel the trailers are imtentionally meant to decieve. with this not being a direct prequel, and there being a need leave things open to a sequel, i think we can assume seceral possible outcomes:
- the planet is NOT lv-426, otherwise where does the sequel come in?
- some of the crew are left stranded
- Vickers gets away so a lie to the company can be made encouraging a second prometheus expedition.
i like the theory of David learning how to pilot the ship. maybe the stranded crew, in thhe sequel, starts experimenting with the space jockey tech and figure out a way to repair the derelict, or maybe they accidentally create an Alien. who knows. hope theres a sequel so we can theorize more!

I'm all love, peace and passion, too, my fellow Promethians. But I do find it annoying when people are so stubborn towards now well known, official facts and then go and clog up forums with therefore (at least IMO) unnecessary threads discussing those early speculations over and over. It's that desperate wish of hard-lined fans who seem to ignore Scott's idea for this semi-prequel.
Some people just seem to struggle to let go of that old original masterpiece which no one wants to touch or destroy. Scott said on numerous occassions that he will give us DNA strands of ALIEN, and that towards the end of Prometheus we will all have a big moment and look at the first act of ALIEN in a different way but without changing its course or message. So I'm asking... HOW MUCH BETTER can it possibly get, plus the prospect of at least one sequel to this??
For those who have an open mind, watch the featurette 'Origins' again by following the link below. For those who can't et go, be warned, as in this case it contains massive spoilers!

Different Time-Lines. Prometheus is prior to Alien [check Weylands' site].

What if the Alien movie really takes place before Prometheus, and not the other way around. That's why Ridley says that it's not a prequel. Before the crew woke up from hyperspace the Weyland company sent instructions to the Nostromos computer (mother) to change course. After the crew wakes up they are told by the ships captain that they have to investigate the call. At that point Ash ( the android ) does not know about the secret mission. When the ship does reach and , land on the planet. We see Dallas, Lambert and Kane leave the ship to investigate. Don't you think that if Ash knew about the company's secret agenda he would of joined the others just to make sure some Alien DNA was found. No, instead of going he stayed behind. What if Kane did not find any Alien DNA, then the whole trip would of been a waste. But while the group of three is away the Weyland company's orders to Ash ( which were programmed into him on earth finally come to light, as he begins to protect the Xenomorph. Remember the conversation between Ash and Lambert. Lambert- you admire it, Ash- I admire it's purity. It almost seems to me that Ash seems surprised of how biologically perfect the Xenomorph is when it comes to survival. Then at the end we see Ripley going into deep sleep again with her cat (jonesy), and then we next see her in Aliens, getting ready to battle the Xenomorphs again. What if the Aliens movie was taking place at the same time the Prometheus trip is going on. And neither of the crews no about each other. The only thing I'm sure about is that this movie will have many surprises.
