Prometheus

^ How a trailer should be done. Entice you, but give nothing away.

Directed by Ridley Scott

A team of explorers discover a clue to the origins of mankind on Earth, leading them on a journey to the darkest corners of the universe. There, they must fight a terrifying battle to save the future of the human race.

Also, I would like this to be known. After watching the trailer for Prometheus, watch this:



It has been said that Prometheus was originally intended as a prequel to Ridley Scott's Alien, but Scott decided to turn it into an original film with Noomi Rapace (who was already set to star in the prequel) still in the cast as one of five main characters. Some time later however it was confirmed that while the movie will take place in the same universe as Alien, and greatly reference that movie, it will, for the bigger part, be an original movie and not a direct prequel.


I am looking forward to this greatly.

I had heard he was directing a new Alien Prequel and saw this which doesn't really show if it is or not and after reading your post....








Are there any fucking Xenomorphs or not?

Well, it's the same ship, but whether the egg chamber is breached is unknown.
Now, the thing is that Prometheus takes place thirty years before Aliens. That's probably around the time that the colony in Aliens was established, but about thirty years before Burke ordered the colonists to investigate the ship.

Hmm... I believe that we'll be witnessing horrors emerge from that ship that are NOT xenomorphs...

Yep, definitely confirmed to be in the Alien Universe now. Great scene too.

Maybe we'll finally explore who's ship that actually was, and why it crashed there with such deadly cargo on-board.

The Ship was centuries old and had been there a long time. Could it possibly be the original occupants in this film?

Already explored who's ship it was but can't remember there names worth a damn....


Remember they look like elephants though.

When did they do that? I don't recall them ever being named or seen in Alien or Aliens.

Space Jockey.




Not real name obviously.

Yeah, in the expanded comics, they're called "Space Jockeys" or "Mala'kak".

How this movie makes me feel:

I would advise against watching the latest trailer. If you're familiar with the alien universe, you could pretty much guess at the plot from what they showed.
