Ridley Scott's Prometheus gets a trailer

A lot of hype surrounding this one. Here it is.

Thoughts?

I repeat what I said when I posted the leaked trailer a few days ago...I need this movie...NOW

Can't wait! Looks great.

Looks good, but that 3-D crap gives my wife a headache. I'll maybe pick it up on DVD I guess.

WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO THE SPACE JOCKEY

Looks interesting, but am I the only one that thought some of it looked a little cheesy? Not the effects, just the character's reactions to everything.

I like the look of it. I still believe this will be an alien prequel. Just minus a plot revolving around the xenomorphs, more around the mysterious space jockey and why he had eggs on his ship in the first place. Even the trailer music is the same (more or less) as the original alien trailer. Plus you can clearly the see the space jockey seat and ship within the trailer.

An Alien prequel.... hmm...

Looks promising as hell. I don't like any of Scott's films beyond The Duelists, Alien, and Blade Runner. Since two of those are sci-fi films, maybe this will change that. :>

Also, for those complaining about the 3D, most movie theatres show films in 2D and 3D now.

Love the visuals, the cast is ****ing fantastic and if anyone could make this work it is Ridley Scott. So I'm very excited for this.

Really solid casting with Charlize Theron, Idris Elba, Guy Pearce and Michael Fassbender. I'm looking forward to seeing how those on screen chemistries work.

It looks dark, and promises to raise all sorts of questions.

I'm just glad that the movie's finally here. It feels like the whole thing's been in hypersleep. :)

Simply beautiful!

Can't stop watching the trailer for the visuals

It looks good but as a Alien prequel everything looks so much more advanced.xxmatt125xx

They really need to stop using that Inception *DURRGH!* sound in every. damned. trailer. Ninja-Hippo

Anyways, my cousin worked on the visual effects for this movie and I'm a HUGE Alien fan...I'm there for the midnight release.

Reminds me of Alien, with the visual effects of Avatar (which isn't bad).

And with ridley Scott directing it, it must be good.

Can't wait for this movie to hit.

Really looking forward to it!

Clicked thread thinking this was going to be a mythological epic. *watches trailer* Scifi... Not interested. th3warr1or

Blasphemy!

Has that been confirmed already? Seems to out of character for it to be PG-13 :(

They're filming a PG-13 and an R rated version and Fox will decide where to go from there.

Gotcha. So even if it is released in theaters at PG-13, then there is hope for a Directors Cut edition on DVD.

You mean it isn't? Well that's made me slightly less enthused.

In further news, Ridley Scott also recently announced at the San Diego Comic-Con that he's aiming to gain a PG-13 rating with Prometheus. He went on to state that he's covering his ass by simultaneously filming more explicit material, allowing him to be able to choose what ultimately works best for the film.

Just because it's scifi doesn't mean it won't have ties to the mythology.

Cool.

I like Ridley Scott.

Good point.

It hasn't been confirmed, but the studio was reluctant on funding so much money for an R-rated film. I'd imagine the PG-13 cut will be released in theaters and the R-cut on Blu/DVD.

Considering that the trailer alone shows Theron stripping off parts of her clothing, a mans face practically melting off and a girl covered in blood I doubt it will tone down too much of the violence and it might get that R, so people shouldn't worry, but I don't think it even matters. This seems meant to be more atmospheric than gory, and minus a few swears Scott could easily make it PG-13. I also can not really blame the studio for being reluctant to give the sort of budget this probably cost to make to a film with an R rating.

Have people actually ever watched the Previous Alien (Namely the first two) films and noticed alot of the violence happened off-screen? If it does end up PG-13 it's because of today's standards.
