What was your favorite scene from Prometheus and why? This can include deleted scenes for those who have the Blu-Ray or who saw them online. Let the community know what scenes you particularly liked from Prometheus! For me, I really liked the scenes that showed the Prometheus ship, it's a magnificent design and I just really liked the effects used for it. [center][url=http://www.prometheus-movie.com/gallery/view/img/366][img]http://www.prometheus-movie.com/media/prometheusT_screencap20.jpg[/img][/url][/center] But my favorite scene was probably the Trilobite vs. Engineer scene and the scene where the Engineer turns on Ford, David, Weyland and Shaw. Oh, and yes I really liked the Deacon birth scene at the end, I thought it was great.

I really liked those calm shots of Prometheus making the approach to landing. You know where it's very quiet, almost a "calm before the storm" moment. You see it from top down and from the back where it's just slowly drifting through the beautiful, but eerie landscape.

Since we all mostly agree that the chair rising was 1 of the best, I must also say the beginning with David is truly Ridley style . I only got the feeling of being alone when I saw that part, so it worked! :)

For me it was when the final Engineer awoke, I just loved the look on his face when faced with these intruders in his realm. Was he a benevolent being who was in awe of these humans who had finally found him? Eh...nope, he was a big, angry bastard!! Loved it!! Then the iconic flight chair emerged and I nerdgasmed and a little bit of wee come out!! Didn't care for the 'Deacon' though. To me it was just there to scream ''Hey...Fanboys..look, it's an Alien!!!'' Best character in the film has to be David, Micheal Fassbender was fantastic in the role and if there's a sequel, I hope he's the driving force behind the story.

my favorite scene in the whole film sent chills up my spine in the best way. It was the scene when the engineer raises the space jockey chair and it rises and rotates from the floor as the music crescendos into EPICNESS!!!!! I had been waiting for that moment my whole life, and it DID NOT disappoint :)!!!

Mine has to be when the Engineer fought the Trilobite.. Although the scene when Shaw had a caesarean was also a great, thrilling highlight of the film as-well.. The bloody thing almost got Shaw.. :)

The scene where the new breed of Xenomorph burst out of the chest of the engineer. I liked the movie but I did expect a little bid more of the Xenomorph. Ridley said the Xenomorph was used so much that he wanted something different, I totally agree with the fact that the Xenomorph has been raped by some movies but that is an even better reason to make a movie with the Xeno in it that is as good as the first movie, I meen the idea of Prometheus is perfect but the Xeno is what made the movie interresting, to leave the Xeno out of it almost the whole movie was not good in my opion. But then at the end, I knew the Xenomorph had to come but I almost lost my trust in that. But finally after 2 hours of waiting there it was. The most amazing creature that excisted in movie history was reborn in 2012. I loved it immedialty and it made the whole movie great again. However the deacon did was a little bit strange but no wonder he was strange. It was only the chestburster, I wonder how the adult one looks like. Well that's one of the 100 reasons to watch prometheus 2.

They said that the deacon was more of an ultramorph. Something that supercedes the xenomorph in both purity and killing power. The engineers and xenos had existed for a very long time. The deacon on the other hand is something that really shouldn't exist because it has the ability to wipe out both cultures.

I loved many scenes, but one that impressed me a lot was the ship crash. Looked amazing, had great weight as characters sacrificed themselves to save humanity. [img]http://www.prometheus-movie.com/media/prometheusV_screencap34.jpg[/img]

David repeating "The trick, William Potter, is not minding that it hurts" in the moment the ship starts to slow down.

My favourite is the beginning, NOT becuase of the engineer, but becuase of the giant spaceship. One aspect of it in particular: "I LOVE THE WAY IT TAKES OF UP INTO THE SKY. It raises itself verticly and while the engineer is breaking down from the black goo, you can still see the ship in the background while its flying off up into the clouds." You can also see the giant shadow it casts on the ground during the intro montage of primordal earth.

Funnily enough it's the flute scene, starting with David switching off the link to Charlize and ending with the lone Earth globe hologram. An awesome few minutes.

David alone on the ship, that's the only Oscar worthy part of the film lol everything before and everything after is anywhere from really stupid to pretty good, but nothing can touch that part of the movie.

I admit my download got cut off right after the computer surgery. But that was my favorite scene. It seemed too real and freaked me out that she was awake.
