was i the first one with the idea of there being a pyramid or temple in prometheus? i made a topic about it, and it was my second topic, as you can see i commented first because after i made the post i found another artical about the same thing, but i had not seen that when i had the idea, and i am really asking if i was the first with the idea on [b]this[/b] site, if so then that's kinda cool, i guess i hit gold :) [url=http://www.prometheus-movie.com/community/forums/topic/331]my temple topic[/url]

Ridley Scott and his writing team were first.

It is also kind of dishonest to say you are not one to say ,"I told you so" or "I was first" and then make an entire discussion thread about it. Actions speak louder that words.

Good calls Zim! And even if you are in denial, you're the first "Itoldyousoer", well before the movie opens! Yet another "first" under your belt! :D
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.

Friend, does it matter who was first on anything? It's a cerebral thing: one thinks ans speculates and derives pleasure from it, neverminding if one is right or wrong in the end. It's the exercise that counts. kudos ^.^

Well I know I was the first to spot the temple back when we saw the first trailer, and I straightaway ascertained it was based up Gigers Harkonnen Castle... [url=http://www.prometheus-movie.com/community/forums/topic/436]Prometheus Temple Uncovered[/url]

yeah i remember that snorkelbottom, i disagreed lol i guess i was wrong with that one, and no i would never be an "i told you so" er, i would only do that if nobody agreed with me back then and i was right, everyone was agreeing with me on thoughts threads, so i cant really said "i told you so" lol

That said it would be interesting to see how many of those early theories and speculations are proved/disproved!

Open a new thread about "Who was the first to..." for every aspect of the movie? That would be fun!

Invaderzim42's thread suggesting a pyramid or temple is older than my "prometheus temple uncovered" thread, so kudo's do go to IZ, that said I think any hardcore alien fan would have expected some type of pyramid/temple to make an appearance because of the idea being planned butnot being featured in Alien. All I did was notice it in the trailer and that it was based on Gigers Harkonnen Castle.

The Book of Alien is full of pre production drawings, concepts & ideas which never made it into the final film, for one reason or another. I think Ridley Scott will incorporate many of these unused elements into Prometheus. Giger's pyramid/egg silo being one of them.

Are people really discussing who came up with the ideas first? Seriously, what point does this thread have other than to show off? Don't get me wrong, I'm glad that people have some brilliant ideas in here but was it really necessary to post a thread like this?

@Shaw's_sweet_baby i did not mean it in that way at all, when i first posted this i was just curios to see if i was the first one to come up with that idea, it was not "i had this idea first, ha!" it was "hey did i come up with this first?" but people took it the wrong way and thats what it turned into lol

@invaderzim42: Well, I still think this thread was a little unnecessary... But keep on posting more interesting threads, friend. Those are the ones we all want to read after all.

@invaderzim42 Only Ridley knows for sure. Recall Blade Runner. Imagine my surprise when H. Ford said "I was NOT a Replicant", or words to that effect. The forum admin should take a poll on June 9 to rate threads by the accuracy of their assertions. Until then, it's all self promotion, baby!!!!!

First here, too bad I, like probably 6000 others members read and post about 4-5 prometheus boards. I just post here the most because it seems to have the oldest, and calmest fans. And very few AvP and post-Aliens fans [and a lot of people who also really dislike Aliens]. And less gore and violence hounds. And less people really into interspecies rape. ew.
