Okay, so everyone has been pretty sure Prometheus' sequel will be titled Paradise from the start, but still it was speculation. 

UPDATE (Nov. 16th, 2015) The title has been confirmed as Alien: Covenant today by 20th Century Fox!

interesting. HOWEVER, it looks as though the domain was registered in nov. of 2010 and that registration could potentially expire next month (correct me if im wrong...i could totally be wrong). That says to me that the abovementioned domain (paradise-movie.com) was probably grabbed up when the working title of prometheus was paradise. In case they went with "paradise" as a film title, they would have the appropriate domain etc. The domain could have nothing to do with the potential sequel??

Joeyjoe, I think you're right about the Created On and Expires On dates, but work is slavery, war is profit, religion (or Science) is mind control and bills are how you're governed, kept quiet. Mortgage, car, taxes, economies, empire - this cannot equate with Freedom (on any planet).

@[b]joeyjoe[/b], It is certainly possible! However, with the recent influence of the title "Paradise" in the deleted scenes, I'm sure Fox won't just leave it. Unless they plan to simply continue with the Weyland site - which would make sense. Who knows, I thought it was interesting regardless. :)

Custodian, exactly what i mean, hell is a place for the suffering a place with selfishness, greed pain , you make money and the government take part of it away even before you receive it even after working your ass off, what i'm saying is that is how slaves are treated with little or no care just like us, we have to suffer to make a living, it's all about controls like empires Custodian said

why do you think they call space 'the heavens" or"where the gods lye" or "home to the gods" so Prometheus Paradise makes a shit load of sense

[b]DAVIS[/b], you also bring up a good point! Last updated this past June, interesting as well! I know most domains can be set for "Auto-renew" by the registrar, as for companies not to forget to pay the bill. So it is probably what Fox has done with this. Talk about planning ahead though if this is the case! But [b]onuris[/b], I like that idea, yeah, I think "[b]Prometheus: Paradise[/b]" would be a cool title, instead of just "Paradise", don't you think? Then the third sequel could be "Prometheus: _____" to maintain the series' connotation.

Ah, but also remember Onuris, Prometheus was more than just the name of the ship, it was the entire underlying mythology behind the plot. I think to keep the Prometheus connotation would be a wise decision, personally. Keeps average joe film goers in the loop when the trailer comes out and also continues on with the mythology where Prometheus left off.

basically there are only two options....either ridley and co. have KNOWN they were going to be doing a sequel from the beginning or the domain in question has nothing to do with a sequel (paradise=prometheus). Im hoping for the former, but am doubtful.

chris, i totally agree with you, but Prometheus was actually a titan in greek mythology, what i' m saying is that they have discovered prometheus and there connection between religion and science but, know they want to discover "paradise" or "Heaven" or even where the "gods" lye Prometheus believed in sacrifice for creation, according to the movie they have met there maker,but know there wanna know where it or they came from. http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/Prometheus?s=t

Quick question on mythology: was (then) the [i]Garden of Eden[/i] NOT the first time such an event had been set in motion but the RESULT of a pre-cleansing, in potentially a series of pre-cleansings. Get rid of the old to create the new?

Yes. I thought the original working title was Paradise. Having said that, Paradise would be a great title for a follow-up IMO. Simple, to-the-point and... deceptive.

Deceptive, yes. Paradise implies exactly that. From what we know of what paradise will turn out to be, not. Therefore, a deception.

Well was Prometheus not originally going to be called Paradise prior to they started shooting the movie, and Lindelof came on board and Prometheus was instead used? Also Ridley had said that he always felt Prometheus would lend itself to a sequel and it appears he plans there to be 2 sequels so maybe Paradise and the 3rd, something related to Hell?
