Just received a very interesting email from Weyland...(MUST READ)

Yeah, someone should record it...seems really interesting.

Could "re-launching" imply a theatrical re-release? Or perhaps a failed mission with no contact from the Prometheus justifies an expedition or mission to take place in order to rescue / rendezvous / re-establish contact with the Prometheus. And that phone call was quite interesting. Very intrigued about what the message actually is. Perhaps I may be mistaken, but doesn't it sound a lot like the message that Ripley and the crew of the Nostromo heard when they hailed the crashed Engineer vessel?

Hey guys, I went ahead and did my own crappy recording. I hope this helps! [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VRFdwl-EQlo&hd=1]Weyland Industries Call [/url]

I love this! I'll say this regarding the possible re-launch of an edited version of the film: it makes no sense. Think about it: the prints of "Prometheus" were sent to theaters with the "10.11.12" image at the end of the credits. Why would FOX plan to re-release the film on 10.11.12 even before the film was released? No, my friends: something big is afoot and it ain't bigfoot. Edit: I just have to add this: 12.21.12 is the final day of the Mayan calendar. It is also a Friday, which is the traditional release date for a film. A 10.11.12 announcement about the next "Alien(s)" film would give Fox over 2 months to promote a year end, holiday release of the film.

.

@synthetic_69 All interviews with Ridley Scott confirm his stating that there will be no more Alien films. Yes Prometheus is a prequel, but its a starting point for so much more than just the world of Alien. Also in regards to your statement of a re-edit of Prometheus, I don't think they would release a re-edit of the film. But perhaps a re-release of the film. Following the DVD/Blu-ray release on 10/09/12. And I'm not sure about anything coming out on 12.21.12, as this will be a very finicky day for most people who have even considered the possibility of the Mayan end date being remotely possible. I'm pretty sure a lot of people will have their heads somewhere else. I don't know about you, but I don't think I'd prefer to be in a movie theater on the day that the skies might actually fall. And for those of you that fall into that category, don't forget that the beginning of the cycle's end starts on 07.14.12!

I called that number several times and listened to it, here is my thoughts so bear w/me on this. The operator states she will connect us to the Prometheus, right? Prometheus was destroyed crashing into the juggernaut, correct? The last remaining engineer died when the deacon burst thru his body on the lifeboat, correct? I think the message is coming from the Deacon from the lifeboat, a distress call if you will, just a thought. Regarding the 10-11-12 date, imo it’s either the second half of the movie or the sequel. As I stated in 2 other threads, 3 months of filming in Spain was never put in the original film, where I read that I can not remember, but it was not on this site... that’s a hell of allot of filming, where is that footage? Can you imagine how much filming can take place in a 3 month span? Also those very costly sets were built in the UK, that RS bragged so boldly about, are they still intact? I believe that Prometheus is a 2 part movie.... Also I stated previously to do a 2 part movie would be such a stellar move, only RS could pull it off. The more I think about it I ask myself why not do something never done before at this magnitude. Prometheus part 1, Prometheus Part 2, yeah, I think that is what 10-11-12 is all about, but hey “ rumor control “ you did not hear that from me.....

@Garcia el Gringo i like you signed up to even let us know, thanks :)

[i]Hello Welcome to Weyland Industries We are now seeking candidates for numerous positions aboard Prometheus, relaunching 10 11 12. If you are interested in helping us build better worlds, please remain on the line, and we will connect your call to the ship personnel director. We are now connecting you call to Prometheus, please hold and someone[/i] will be with you shortly …and then it goes west, to something more nondescript on that recording. Sounds like Bob pick up though. How ironic you get through to an Engineer on the phone

the message is now gone! wtf

Off the recording on the phone!?

This is a clearer recording of the call: [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=Ed9g1pCJB0E]Whole recording[/url] And a trimmed down edit of just the strange noises/language (maybe the Engineer) from a member of that forum calling themself redbeard... [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=kcxvzPrIFvM]Clip[/url]

@mvmnt yeah theres no message on **WEYLAND anymore!

@Membrane After listening to your version of the phone call, I know I clearly heard someone say "What did he say?" After the (so called) Engineer speak was immediately finished.

[u]SpE3dSt3R[/u]: Let me say up front that this is a friendly reply to your last post. I say that because we all know how easily a post can be taken the wrong way simply because it lacks context or the inflection of the human voice. When I used the term "Alien(s)" to refer to a potential already in the can companion film/sequel to "Prometheus" I meant "Alien(s)" in the sense that "Prometheus", "Alien" and "Aliens" are all set within the same universe. That's all. I wasn't suggesting that 10.11.12 or 12.21.12 will bring us a cinematic sea of mucus dripping Xenos courtesy of Fox and Ridley. But hey, you never know! [u]Fader[/u]: Earlier today I referenced in the below thread the info you mentioned about the filming that took place in Spain in the fall of 2011. [url=http://www.prometheus-movie.com/community/forums/topic/9115]http://www.prometheus-movie.com/community/forums/topic/9115[/url] You must have been the one whom from whom I learned about the filming that Scott did in Spain. FYI, that info's located in the "Prinicpal photography" section of the film's wiki page. [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prometheus_(film)]url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prometheus_(film)[/url]

FYI, the official recording is back up via the phone number that was distibuted via the email from Weyland. Also, when the woman on the message states "we will connect your call to the ship personnel director" my guess is that she is talking about one Meredith Vickers, which means that we are hearing noises from the "life boat".

Wow well it better be something good another idea was a TV spin off - could be good or bloody awful depending on how its done of course!

@synthetic_69 I appreciate the friendly reply. I wasn't trying to beat down your idea. I was simply responding on what I had read and heard and I apologize as I took your statement at face value, not at the idea that another sequel of some sort may come to fruition on one of those dates. I too would be extremely excited to see something very interesting happen on one of those dates. In the Universe of Prometheus and Alien (and apparently Predator), something very interesting will hopefully happen on one of those days. ----------------------- Interestingly enough, though I cannot recall if I read it within this thread or somewhere else, but the East Cost Comic Con begins on 10.11.12 in New York and there is something I saw that stated you can get a very limited exclusive Weyland Industries Employee ID Card if you attend. Perhaps they will discuss or show the really big reveal at the ECCC. Just a thought, but this is a confirmed consistency with this important date. Thoughts?

@synthedic_69 Thanks for the link, was not sure where I had read that, but is it not interesting the fact that the time frame of filming does not add up, and why film in Spain? Here is the wiki info..... btw I posted the 3 months of filming in Spain in another thread several weeks ago, and I did get that from wiki In September 2011, filming moved to the 1. Ciudad de la Luz audiovisual complex in Alicante, Spain. Shooting areas included the complex's large water tank, and a nearby Alicante beach.[92][100] The complex was booked from August 22, 2011, through to December 10, with set construction occurring from August until late September.[92] Approximately 250 people worked on the three month-long Spain shoot, generating over €1 million to the local economy What was the large water tank all about I wonder, any ideas? Something is going on!!!! I’ve seen the movie 3 times and I do not remember any water scenes in the movie. Maybe the Engineer world is a water world, may explain the blue/white skin, mostly also why are they still promoting the movie after the fact w/comic con and viral info, unless....... part 2 is already in the can and 10-11-12 we will see the first new trailer of part 2 on 10-11-12, that has to be the reason, I am stellar stoked if it all comes to light, now that move would make Prometheus EPIC

The filming in spain included or was all the Weyland dream sequence (cut from the film but maybe back for the DC) he was on a yacht in the water (reportedly but I see another source said it wasnt shot hmm 3 months...I heard maybe the storm sequence was shot there 2 probably some more). Best bet I reckon is a TV series probably with the TV looking actors in the new virals :S ...

[u]SpE3dSt3R[/u]: Oh no! You said the P word...Predator! It won't be long before someone here starts posting about how the next "Alien(s)" film will prove that the Predators are missing link between the creators of the Engineers and the Xenos! That's the first that I've heard about the special Weyland Industries ID. I want one! [u]Fader[/u]: Regarding the water tank I can't but help think of the scenes in "Aliens 3" where the Xeno swims through the cooling tanks. Honestly, would anyone be surprised to see Xeno's make an appearance in "Prometheus Part 2"? For me the Green Slime, the Black Goo, the Xeno wall relief, the ampule chamber ceiling mural and the Deacon all point to the Xenos making some type of appearance in the next film. But hey, maybe I'm wrong. I keep trying to look at both "Prometheus" and the 10.11.12 chatter from an increasingly streamlined perspective. In that spirit I ask the following: how absolutely bat sh*t crazy will the fans of the "Alien(s)" films be if 10.11.12 turns out to be for a lame ass TV show? If you were Fox and you took the risk to green light "Prometheus" would you be as dumb to follow up a $130 million dollar motion picture with a 4 month long viral campaign for a low rent entry in the franchise? My gut says that the answer to that is "no". The DVD/Blu-Ray of "Prometheus" drops on 10.01.12 and so the public will have 10 days to dig through the extra before 10.11.12/day 1 of ECCC. Fox has about 2 1/2 months before then to continue the viral campaign. Add those facts to the info about the filming that was done in Spain and I would be shocked and angry if all we got out of this is a low rent TV show. I think that people will lose focus if a hypothetical film is released next summer. I have to imagine that the film would be released late 2012 or early 2013. I have to think that this viral campaign is aimed at maintaining and building a buzz before 10.11.12and then using the clamor over whatever reveal is dropped at that time to then focus people on the next film's theatrical release date, one that will "shortly" follow the "October Surprise" that will take place on 10.11.12.

@synthedic_69,.... I certainly hope there is no TV series regarding the continuing story of Prometheus, but..... if Fox did that, I doubt I’d watch it.... I will give credit to Fox when they made the “ Terminator: Sarah Conner Chronicles “ I thought the series was pretty good. I am a big fan of all the Terminator movies as well. But like true form Fox did not renew the show for a 3rd season, I believe they felt in would be in conflict with the 4th Terminator movie or something like that. Getting back on track with Prometheus Part 2 however, the additional filming in Spain, many un answered questions every body has due to Part 1, the fans are continuing to search for some type of closure, the ongoing new viral hints, the effects this movie has created with it’s fan base, surly something is up. I don’t know about you but the open end final scene of Shaw and David taking off in the other Juggernaut ship, I almost was expecting to see “ To Be Continued” right before the credits.... the only plausible answer is that Part 2 will be announced this year, perhaps 10-11-12..... Also I watched/listened to the deleted scene in Alien where Dallas has Lambert play the signal received from the SJ Juggernaut ship, sounds nothing like the viral message from this thread, in fact it sounds even creepier in Alien imo.... don't know how to link into this thread

You know, it took me more than 48 hours to realize I spelled "received" wrong in my thread title lol.

Lol fader I wish it were true but like I said they were in spain for 3 months - hardly enough time to do anything plus see my last post on the previous page its all been pretty much wrapped up. I think it would be impossible to cover up a 2nd part - there would have been some kind of leak - but if there were it would shock me and be awesome of course. TV show is most likely now unfortunately but I guess it may enhance the film if it were to expand on it in a clever way.

[u]fader[/u]: I saw your post. I wrote the below on your behalf given that you and I seem to be of the same mind regarding there being another "Alien(s)" film waiting to be unleashed on the public. [u]crabfart[/u]: i just went on wiki and looked at the filming information for both "Inception" and "The Dark Knight". I wanted to look at a couple of recent large scale genre films and see how long it took to shoot those films. Given the fact that "Inception" was shot on numerous locations it was hard to tell exactly how many days it toof for Nolan to shoot the film. However, it's clear that "The Dark Knight" shot for 13 weeks in Chicago. That's 91 days. I want to quote something that I wrote yesterday in another thread. "Here's the thing: Scott is on record stating that he shot the film in 82 days. If they started filming in England on 3/21/11 and then started filming in Spain in September or perhaps early October 2011 then that means that the crew had at least 163 days in England to shoot 82 days of material." "Prometheus" is 124 minutes long. The shoot in England took 163 days to produce 82 days of filming. That doesn't include the shooting that took place in Spain. "The Dark Knght" is 153 minutes long. The main shoot in Chicago took 91 days. There were another 7 days of filming that took place in Chicago prior to the main shoot. There were also 6 days of filming that took place in Hong Kong. That's 104 days of shooting in total, not including some stunt related filing that took place in London in the fall of 2007. So, how and why did it Scott 59 days more of filming in England, 3 months more of filming in Spain* and the shoot in Jordan to produce 1 film that is [u][i]29 minutes shorter[/i][/u] than "The Dark Knight" and cost $55 million less to produce. It doesn't make any sense! * Per wiki: "The complex was booked from August 22, 2011, through to December 10, with set construction occurring from August until late September."

Shooting the pilot for the TV series? Doubt that too but its another possibility. And I meant that they were doing other things such as the yacht scene in that 3 months and other shots in the film so it seems like not enough time. Also they have not had allot of time even for one film - post production etc. seems a bit too much to me. Ill still bet on TV series...but hope for 2nd part :P ...It also would be so cool if they released a short film as part of the ongoing story line stuff dont know why they dont mix it up like that sometimes... ps another thought - if it were 2nd part surely the virals would have the actors for the 2nd part in them - another nudge in the TV series direction for me.

[u]crabfart[/u]: You wrote: "ps another thought - if it were 2nd part surely the virals would have the actors for the 2nd part in them - another nudge in the TV series direction for me." As much as I want to think that there is in fact another film in the can I hear you about what you wrote in your above quoted words. I've recently written about that notion/fear in some of my recent posts. When you said "the yacht scene" were you referring to the scene featuring Weyland when he was younger? It's my understanding that that scene was never shot and was only feature in Spaihts initial version of the script. I'd have to look at what information's online regarding the post-production schedule in order to get a sense how that would influence my thoughts on there being a second film in the can. That said, I still think that it makes no sense that it took 163 days to shoot 82 days of content in a film that relied more heavily on actual sets than it did on CGI. 82 days of shooting basically means that Scott took every other day off from shooting. The shoot in Spain involved pre-production set building that was followed by 3 months of filming. Why would it take a month or more to build sets in Spain for a single scene that seems to have never been shot? Why would it take 3 months to shoot one scene? And lastly, given the fact that Scott went to Iceland and Jordan to shoot then why would he go to an indoor set that contains a gargantuan water tank to shoot a scene with a yacht? Why not just go to a marina in the Mediterranean?

Yes when I look at lots of sources it does seem like some are made up or 'Chinese whispers' one says 3 weeks was the shoot in spain. It was supposed to be in a storm so that makes sense to shoot indoors. It is hard to know exactly what happend currently (had more time to check stuff now). If indeed the shot was pulled and they were there for 3 months and didnt shoot any other scenes (other than: the desolving engineer scene apparently was shot there) I would say that does pull in the direction of something bigger. I would say I am still slightly in favour of TV series but it does seem quiet possible with all that for a 2nd part - I must admit when I saw prometheus I did think : "was that it?". Also well done if they did fit in 2 parts - it would be surprising! And I will leave you with another interesting idea: Possible engineer home planet water world: Prometheus creatures: Squid baby later octopus like ! Deacon very stream lined also based on a shark. Some one said a funny thing too: BOTTOM OF THE SEA Camera pans from left to right, revealing... AN EGG The egg hatches slowly releasing... THE PLAICEHUGGER Anyway fingers crossed!
