Whoever watched the movie could please tell me without spoiling too much, where in "Prometheus" the track "Friend from the past", which reprises Jerry Goldsmith's original Alien theme, is used?

If that link doesn't work try this one: http://www.metacafe.com/watch/8587963/prome_wmv/ Its a mash-up of a track from Prometheus a track from another movie... the cadence is a bit different, but I find a similarity

"Weyland" doesn't sound like the original Alien theme to me... it sounds slightly similar to the Goldsmith track that was used when the eggs were discovered.

Jerry Goldsmith's Alien score was 50 percent of the scary factor IMO. That is one of my favorites scores of all the films I''ve seen and that's a lot. What I've heard of the present score is a totally different approach but I 'll to wait to see the film to hear how effective it is. With the possible exception of A3, all of the sequels have echoed some of Goldsmith's original.

yeah a masterful score, and an expensive one too... I sold it a couple of times on amazon for about 100 bucks
