(And i know that the Xenomorph won't be seen in the film, it's the idea of giving is major backstory on the Weyland Corp etc and Space Jockey that has me salivating!)

Regarding the rating. I submitted that as a question for the Q&A session several days ago. I suspect they will get several requests for a determination of the rating submitted to them. Did you add yours?

Preposterous story about a leaked Fox Prometheus script (2nd draft) being passed around the forums. Appears to be written by a twelve year old that doesn't know how to use spell check or grammar check. Good for a laugh.

It appears that TWO major questions that we have discussed earlier are addressed/answered at :04 and :14.

And that shot at :03 remindes me of a very similar one from A L I E N, in which Ash is sitting at his station on the bridge as the planet passes by underneath the portside cockpit window.

Love it!

That certainly whets the appetite for the full trailer that I will see on the 17th at Wonder-con in Anaheim Anyone recognize the actor holding up the two metallic balls at :09? Alien ship at :12 is the Giger ship seen in Alien. Is that Prometheus on a collision course with it?

Checking frame by frame at :12 to :14, there is a dark oblong cloud that approaches and passes the alien ship. Some kind of weapon perhaps?
There is speculation that it is the escape pod carrying Shaw and Vickers to the planet surface.

Aragorn the Elfstone · 03-12-2012, 04:24 PM

Well, the combination of those 'Alien' trailer sound fx and the new bombastic trailer music didn't really sit well with me (they seem to work against each other). Even still, there was lots of fantastic imagery there and I'm incredibly psyched about seeing the full trailer.

Blu Ian · 03-12-2012, 05:46 PM

I came.

Many times.

Oh my god.

raygendreau · 03-12-2012, 05:59 PM

Watch it at 720P. That is definitely an escape pod at 0:12-0:14 leaving the drop ship:

I don't think I've ever seen a more anticipated movie. We've had several teaser trailers for teaser trailers leading up to the actual trailers.

Yep, Such a Pathetic game. Not really sure why we need multiple teaser trailers for an actual trailer.

Is a good job the movie looks awesome.

swifty7 · 03-12-2012, 07:33 PM

for some reason I believe this movie will be very disappointing. I'm not feeling it specially knowing that the space jockey looks like a human and not like the skeleton found in the Alien movie.

Aragorn the Elfstone · 03-12-2012, 07:48 PM

I think it's a mistake to expect this film to live up to what one has build up in their mind in the years since first seeing 'Alien'. It's been over 30 years. Ridley is a very different filmmaker than he was back then, with different ideas and goals. The film medium itself has changed significantly. Even if it's an incredible achievement (I hope it is), I don't imagine it's going to scratch the surface of what I imagined of the history of the Space Jockey, the derelict, etc. when watching the opening scenes of 'Alien'. This will be something quite different, and I'm eager to experience the ride Ridley wants me to take.

Blu Ian · 03-12-2012, 08:00 PM

God this looks so good.

What's your estimates on opening weekend?

Bageara · 03-12-2012, 08:04 PM

Has there been any leaks to the actual plot of the movie yet?

So, the trailer we will see on the 17th will be 2 minutes 33 seconds long and will probably have a PG 13 rating (12A in Britain) http://www.bbfc.co.uk/ETxxx286710/ Not conclusive, but not looking good for an R rating. I wonder if they will know on the 17th? I'm sure the question will be asked.
