Looks sweet.
-
I'm so going to see that!
-
Yep, gonna see that one for sure.
-
Very cool. :aok
-
Oh I am seeing this.
-
Apparently this is an Alien prequel of some sorts.
From Wikipedia:
Conceived as a prequel to Scott's 1979 science fiction horror film Alien, rewrites of Spaihts' script by Lindelof developed a separate story that precedes the events of Alien, but which is not directly connected to the films in the Alien franchise. According to Scott, though the film shares "strands of Alien's DNA, so to speak", and takes place in the same universe, Prometheus will explore its own mythology and ideas.

They are clear it is not a prequel, it started as one but they decided to make it it's own universe, so to speak. The only parallels to alien I believe will be that Scott did both

I've been waiting for this. Thanks for sharing Grizz.
This is a clip of Ridley Scott being interviewed about Prometheus.

developed a separate story that precedes the events of Alien... is not directly connected to the films in the Alien franchise... takes place in the same universe
Well it is in the same universe. It is before Alien in that same universe. Although it is not directly connected to the Alien films it "shares 'strands of Alien's DNA, so to speak'".
Therefore I believe it is safe to say it is--as I stated before-- "an Alien prequel of some sort"
-
Not really a prequel since the XenoMorphs aren't a part of it, but the space Jockeys are.
-
Looks like a great movie. Prometheus was stubborn.
-
Eh...space suits with fully transparent bubble's
pass.

:x I'm gonna see that just for the music :D

Is reminiscent of Toy Story 2 at this part.
-
Interesting... The ship looks strangely like Serenity from FireFly.

Going to go watch the film for the orchestral musical aspect of it.
Then I copied the link at the current time (of the trailer) and I said that I was reminded of the movie "Toy Story 2" at that part.

It's just that for me the music in that scene or what is going on there. Really doesn't remind me of what I remember Toy Story 2 being about. But then again I haven't seen that movie in over a decade.

In the beginning, Buzz is standing on a big plain and it splits apart into a 'Z' for Zurg. When the plateau splits apart at the time in the trailer, it reminded me of TS2. :)

I cant remember the last time I was this excited about a movie release :banana:
in interviews, Ridley Scott also seems genuinely excited about it too at all stages of the project, I take this as a very good sign. not sure about casting Charlize though.

I may be a bit over-confident, but I think Ridley Scott is sure to have made a fine film with this one. I'd love to see a Blade Runner sequel or prequel too.
