[Show spoiler]

But it's Logan Marshall-Green.

Long lost brother.

I still wish Scott had felt the need to make this a prequel to a film that didn't need one. But, I can't deny that that trailer is killer...an absolute stunner.

I was planning on skipping this film, just because I just couldn't get past the idea that this is an uneccesary prequel. Not anymore.

It appears to be the same tentacle that was slapping the window Shaw was looking out of in the other trailer.

Another cool gif-

not only is it in 3D, but Scott loved the format so much he said he will never shoot 2D again.

It may just be me, but all the big movies this year have me more hyped than The Dark Knight Rises.

Nothing from it's trailers have "wowed" me yet. But The Avengers, Prometheus, Amazing Spider-Man and GI Joe 2 have me super pumped.

And the more I see of Prometheus, the more interesting it becomes

STARSCREAM · 03-18-2012, 02:31 AM

Now I am super hyped on this movie!

amazing!

I just got back from Wondercon at the Anaheim convention center. I thought the rain might have thinned the attendance a bit, but it did not. I and the rest of the 3000 people in the 3rd floor ballroom were the first to see the trailer you are now talking about around 2 PM Pacific time. About 10 trailers were shown including Prometheus, The Hobbit,Titanic, Abraham Lincoln Vampire Slayer, Spiderman and the new Resident Evil film (all in RealD 3D). In fact 80 % of the trailers were in 3D. The Prometheus trailer was the best received. Based on the response of 3000 people in a live audience, this is going to be a very big movie. Abraham Lincoln got the 2nd best response, followed by the Hobbit and Titanic. Response to Spiderman was lukewarm at best. We got them to play the Prometheus trailer twice. For the live Q/A we had Damon Lindelof, Sir Ridley Scott, Charlize Theron and Michael Fassbender on stage. No live questions were taken from the audience. There was no mention of the movie rating. Only twitter questions were used. Very bad idea. Example: "Charlize, how does Michael Fassbender smell?" Answer: "Like musk, chilis and mint." Are you kidding me!

They handed out 3D lenticular posters (12x18) for Prometheus and Abraham Lincoln. I also got a translucent plastic Weyland Corp business card with the Weyland logo, Weyland Industries web site address and a telephone number(**Weyland)

I decided not to stick around for Mila Jovavich and the new Resident Evil Film.

This was a very well organized event, with 3 large screens and RealD 3D projectors. The 3D looked much better and brighter than I have seen in the theaters to date.

Based on this experience, I think this is going to be a very good year for 3D Blu-rays

Decado · 03-18-2012, 03:43 AM

Thanks for the mini-report. Given the flak it is receiving here, it's interesting to hear that Abraham Lincoln is getting some positive buzz.

I was curious about RE. I guess they'll show the new clip soon.
