Prometheus (2012)

[PointManification]

Hi guys, kinda unrelated question to the Blu-Ray release, but since I know there are couple of diehard Alien fans around here, I hope you guys can please enlighten me over this confusion. Forgive me for my bad English, as its my fourth language actually.

Now that the Blu-Ray is out, HD screenshots from the movie are also out. I've noticed more details from the mural.

[Show spoiler]

Yes, we all know its a mural of the Xenomorph,

[Show spoiler]and I guess the highlighted boxes in this picture has vetted the fact that the green crystal in front of the mural do contain the goo of Xenomorph's DNA. Hence the facehugger and it impregnating an Engineer in the mural.

So, since that mural is located at the "military installation" of the Engineers on LV 223, and the mural has also vetted the fact that Facehuggers and Xenomorph's biology has been around since thousands of years ago, why are they saying the Deacon alien at the end of Prometheus and the Trilobite(large fachugger) is the first in its species? Even by listening to the commentary from the screenwriters, they've stated its the first of it kind.

If that's the case, then what is the purpose of the mural and the depiction of Xenomorph's biology tree?

Contradictory much?

Thanks in advance guys. Oh boy. I'm confused.

And you've got thousand of images in the galleries on the bonus BD to look at, also.

Sweet- thanks for update

If you want a full list of the extras, including timecodes, I've posted one on page 88 in this thread.

Can someone verify if this will be the same at the U.S. Best Buy brick and mortar and also explain how do you go about doing this at the store. Do I show my dvd when I go to customer service along with the Prometheus 3d blu ray or can I do it at the register too?

That's awesome! If I remember correctly, it can be ANY dvd? As long as it's a legit copy?

Could somebody provide the link to Target 3D + exclusive artbook booklet? I looked through their website but wasn't sure because it didn't say anything about the booklet and also the artwork isn't right....big thanks in advance ^_^

Apparently the 3D will also be $19.99 at US Best Buy with a DVD trade-in.

I liked the Alien series quite a bit, but never got around to watching this film? Worth a blind buy?

Nice, cancelling my Amazon 2D, for the extra bonus features at the same price mostly likely I'll get the 3D and just sell the 3D disc.

The ad also seems to indicate to that the 2D version for $22.99 includes the exclusive artbook too and the picture shows the 2D cover art with a Target exclusive sticker on it. The 2D version is also likely to be a slipbox that opens from the side to accommodate the book, so you won't need to get the 3D version (if you hate 3D) just to get the book.

These prices are okay for exclusive versions, but it would have been cool to get the exclusive 3D version for $19.99 like we did for Avengers last week. It would have been a pretty easy decision at the point. I will make up my mind on which version to get based on the Best Buy ad. It looks like the upgrade and save is starting up again next week so if you have some DVDs to throw away you can knock $5 off Best Buy's list price for the standard versions.

haha, i'm well aware i paid a lot more for this . even if i bought it from amazon, it'll still gonna costs me 17 bucks in shipping alone, which, in my case, usually take 30 days to arrive.

so, ignoring the risk of losing the item while in delivery, i'd rather pay more for security reasons

anyways, plain old BD 3D in Indonesia (we got no combo or whatever) it'll costs you at least 50 bucks. so, 4disc combo for 59 was a good deal to me

But you may want to spoiler tag your post as you give some of the ending away.

Edit: Another difference, no inside artwork in the French, we have a picture of the Prometheus.

Do you have any site which can get the Play.com steelbook send oversea?
Really wanna to get that version instead of the French one.
