I've seen the film at least 9 times and it's obvious he Wasn't scared. You're mis-interpreting the scene to make up for your own embarrassment of not paying attention to it. Millburn's voice is completely calm. It almost sounds jokey.
The only one deluding themselves is you. And you know this if you have it right in front of you as you claim.
If you're too lazy to think for yourself and require bloaded hamfisted exposition to understand something than I guess that's just the kind of audience type you are.

I'm definetely picking up Prometheus because is a great film but I don't like Fox strategy of making the bonus material disc exclusive to the 3D release. I respect the people that likes 3D but for me is just a gimmick and I would have picked up the standard 2D release but now I have to pick the 4 disc set because of the 3 and a half hour documentary that's only available on that set.

I just talked to Target and if you bring in the original Best Buy Ad, they will price match the Prometheus price in the ad.

so is this a prequel to Aliens or no? LOL I seen the preview when it was in theaters and it didnt really mention or show anything that looked like it was from Aliens.. Now the new preview for the Blu Ray it looks way different and shows the Alien, looks exactly like the one in the original. IDK im going to get it Tuesday but heard alot of different things..

It takes place in the universe before ALIEN. But isn't a direct link up (better this way)

I had no idea how it was going to end first time watching it

In my opinion, it's a completely stand-alone film with minor ties to Alien.

I'm sure Prometheus 3 or whatever they're going to call it will be the pure Alien prequel.

It is a prequel in the sense that it shows some of the history of the Space Jockey race and Weyland Corp.'s initial involvement with them.
[Show spoiler]And yes, a creature similar but not exactly like the xenomorph is briefly in the film, but just as a fan service cameo.

Nope.
[Show spoiler]The entire film leads up to that moment.
Also his alter is in the big head room, with the Deacon's symbolism laced through out

So is it best to know the Alien movies pretty well before watching/knowing whats going on in this movie?

I would say so, yeah. It definitely makes it a bit more enjoyable.

You don't have to

But as a scifi fan I'd watch Alien and Blade Runner
since Scott's tied this to that as well.

You can do it afterwords
since Prometheus 2 and Blade Runner 2 are coming up soon........

Does that apply for their exclusive set? I ask since Best Buy isn't selling the same version.

They said it has to be the IN STORE ad, it cannot be printed at home. But I asked specifically for the 3D version, and they said yes.

I don't think they'll honestly know the difference at customer service. And if they give you a hard time, management would probably be very strict on that policy then.
