Probably will be around noon or 1 PM. Saw Dragon Tattoo last night but the shitty theater I went to didn't show the trailer to this yet they showed the trailer for The Tree of Life.

I just find it kinda annoying which they have to shove the Prometheus title on every scene from the beginning of the trailer and right to the end.
What is the issue with the movie using wormholes? The concept is based on plausible theory and it would explain the time jump, in order for the Space Jockey to have been petrified between Prometheus and Alien (assuming the ship in Prometheus is the 'derelict ship' in Alien). The ampules, if they are indeed bioforming material, will play well against some of the faith themes I've read Rapace refer to in interviews. Also, isn't the title reveal during the bootleg trailer identical to the original Alien trailer?

My biggest concern with the 'fake synopsis' is that there is a map to the Space Jockey planet hidden on our planet. I would much rather that the story be: the human race is making it's first attempt to transverse a nearby wormhole only to discover too late that it's a gateway to the Space Jockey planet; inevitably triggering human existance & demise, combining 2001, Event Horizon, and Star Trek elements while keeping it grounded in the Alien bio-mechanical universe.

Okay, I'm done postulating. Bring on the HD trailer!

Here is the bootleg leak. Even in its craptastic transfer bootleg quality the trailer looks amazing and freaky. Can't wait.

Of course the studio is going to say the synopsis is fake, they don't want to confirm the entire plot is out there 8 months before the movie releases.

Looks amazing even on my phone!

You may be on to something. But, this part of the synopsis boggles the mind:
[Show spoiler]Mudow, Logan, Chance, Aldrich, Yuri, and Janek end up being destroyed by the Protoforms. In a strange, erotic ceremony, the Protoforms seemingly mate with the Bio-Brain and each other to create thousands of EGGS, the first of a new generation of the monsters. Meredith Vickers is revealed to be a sleeper CONSTRUCT of the Engineers, who are still active in their far future and Shaw’s present due to the time-travelling abilities of the wormhole. Vickers was grown in an Engineer lab but escaped, fleeing to Earth while always wanting to her find creators and take their power. The Engineers activate Vickers’ secondary GENE PROGRAMMING, and she transforms into an ALPHA PROTOFORM: the STAR BEAST.
The
[Show spoiler]"strange erotic ceremony
will get the movie an R rating for sure.

Wow- watched it 3 times already. I think this may be my most anticipated film coming out next year, which is saying something.

Did you ever think the people behind the rumors for this film used your curiosity as Bait?

I interpretter all of the 'not a prequel' talk to mean it won't have xenomorphs running around.
