Ridley Scott's "Prometheus" (2012)

[GojiFan]

I think the plot sound cool, fans where like "This sounds so awful!".

That's because it does sound awful. The Space Jockeys were supposed to be on the way extinction way before humans ever made it into the modern era (aka few left, not a planet full), Xeno's were not "modified" by humans, etc. They didn't create humans either. I have my doubts that plot was actually real, because it pisses over a bunch of canon facts of the alien universe on top of being just awful.

^Good point but it not bad as the plot idea that the BS had for AVP3 (A King Alien) or most stories that where created in the EU. The PG-13 rating still turns me off since you can't have a Alien film if it's PG-13. The Matrix films, 300 and Terminator 1-3 all did well at the box office and where able to make back their budget.

I never thought the aliens had a "canon" origin to begin with. Stuff is suggested but it was never explained in detail.

Yeah, I agree entirely. The Jokey corpse and ship were old enough o be fossilized. Adding humans into the mix was a disappointed for me. I was excited at the precept of a film entirely casted with aliens, but I don't think the movie goers are ready for that.

I think you can. Watch Alien and without the multiple uses of the f bomb, I'd say you have a film that fits the modern PG13 fim style. As long as they don't pack if full of uneeded cursing and unwanted gore, than they could make a movie just as scary as Alien but have it be PG13. Just my 2 cents.

[Gojira21]

Agreed, and i heard somewhere that Prometheus will actually be the first of three prequel-esque type of movies?

[Giga Kaiju]

^ Really ? well doesnt surprise me...now a days that is normal.

[Gojira21]

yea wouldnt me either, and prometheus does well i might be interested in the next two

I'm loving this Alien meets 2001 everyone keeps mentioning is awesome. I don't want a PG-13 rating since the stuff that Giger mention makes it sound like if it's a very dark film. AVP was PG-13 and it failed, so was Robocop 3 and Highlander 3. Giving out PG-13 ratings to R rated series does not work. It work with the 4th Die Hard movie but Die Hard is nowhere as bloody as Alien.

Making Alien PG-13 is like making a Friday the 13th movie PG-13.

I already saw them on AVPGalaxy this morning and they look great. I can't wait to see the teaser soon, I think I will be looking forward to this movie more then TDKR and The Avengers.

[Gojira21]

Damn, those pics do look good. I cant wait for this movie

If you've seen the pictures, there are things that look extraordinarily like Xeno eggs.

[zilla103192]

The film DOES take place in the ALIEN universe... but it's not an ALIEN film...

[Hellspawn28]

But there is going to be possible Xeno's in it. There must be a chestbuster scene, I don't want it to be like the scene in AVP all over again.

Bump for an update.

[Hellspawn28]

Thanks for the bump. Looks like a possible Space Jockey image has been leaked. Lucky that someone was able to save them before they got deleted.




This movie keeps on looking better. Now only if we get a trailer soon which I hope to be around later this year.

[tokyostateofmind]

This movie just looks EPIC! i am so excited.

The Jockey chair/control panel thing seems a bit more angular compared to the original.

What was that thing supposed to be anyway? It was like a telescope/cannon in the middle of a big round room.
