So, David is *genuine spoiler*

If anyone has resisted the urge to read the plot synopsis, you can get away with reading halfway through it and still keeping two-thirds of the surprises for when you see it on screen. There's a plot summary on wiki now if you can't find it anywhere else. *SPOILER* But as it turns out, David the sneaky bugger swipes an ampule of alien stuff from the temple and smuggles it back onboard the Prometheus. Then, he gets a message from Weyland telling him to infect Holloway with what he finds inside. Vickers catches wind of the message but doesn't know what David was told and doesnt know what to expect (that clip we've all seen). So, David infects Holloway, Holloway bones Shaw (impregnating her with an alien), and Holloway shows symptoms during the next visit to the temple. I'll save the rest for you to find out for yourself. David is an antagonist as it turns out; did anyone else see it coming?

Yes you can see it coming. But David turns out to be something more subbtle than an antagonist. His thirst for knowledge puts him above the good/bad guy configuration. The very end of the movie will tell you that. Fassbender delivers a first class performance.

@Westy Dude, the wiki plot is an obvious fake... There were no confirmed advance screenings in either the US or the UK; all the folks claiming they attended the screenings in France or Switzerland are fakes because wtf would you do advance screenings in those countries for?.. Filmmakers are (sadly enough) generally interested in sampling the opinions of English-speaking audiences since they are the main cash cows. The wiki plot was added by a guy from this very forum, Kronnang Dunn, who was basing his synopsis on the musings of a man who I suspect is slightly disturbed. The same one that was claiming to have access to the "Prometheus" script a while ago.

Still waiting for a [i]real[/i] review from iapetus... If he doesn't deliver, the movie starts in Russia tomorrow, and while physically I'm not there and won't be able to give you the details, I will still be able to confirm or deny the current synopsis.

I don't think the leaks are fake. Films get released at different times and the press and industry see the film before the public. There are legit reviews on US sites now so people have seen it. What the reviews say back up the spoilers too.

@orangecat "What the reviews say back up the spoilers too" I do not think so. The spoilers also share many details with some of the previously debunked "synopses", so what? Somebody got wind of the certain plot points and decided to fill in the gaps, thinking he's smart enough to guess the whole thing basing on the trailers, the current movie tendencies and the screenwriter's background. That said, the wiki plot may still coincide with the real thing, but it doesn't make it less of a fake :) We're still waiting for a review from iapetus (IAPETUS?? ARE YOU SLEEPING? WAKE UP MAN!). If he doesn't post anything, as I said before, the movie starts in Russia tomorrow so I will be able to confirm or deny at least something :)

@Strashi, press, magazine editors and others are invited to screenings not publicly announced all the time. This happens with every movie. I'm willing to bet my bottom dollar this plot summary is accurate. It's already been publicly released in France the wiki plot only surfaced recently - if it was just another crackpot fan fiction it wouldn't be accepted onto the wiki page, it has to be sourced and accurate.

The way David infects Holloway is in the trailers! Subtle.
