I don't like the space suits, I don't know it's just something about them that makes them look tacky.

He filmed it in the homeland? Sweet.
Well, this is several decades before Alien, so the technology isn't quite as good as it should be, hence the (I don't know what you have against them, I think they look great) "tacky" look?
That's a shitty statement though, because the Nostromo space suits from Alien look worse/less advanced than the ones in Prometheus.
Yeah, it bugs me how these people have some much more advanced looking tech compared to Alien.
But that's just the modern shine I guess....
Well the Prometheus is like a scientific research ship so their equipment is gonna be top of the line whereas the Nostromo was like a corporate mining vessel so their stuff was probably as cheap as possible therefore the difference isn't so unbelievable although ultimately who cares.
Yeah, the Nostromo and its crew were supposed to be grungy, not high tech. Not only that but it was planned to be a 'capture and return' mission all along so there was no need to waste a good ship and equipment and crew on that mission.
I still can't explain for my dislike of them, I guess every once in a while you see something that just doesn't work for you aesthetically.
I dislike that they look like they have massive bubbles on their heads. It just looks kind of silly.
It's hardly any different from current astronaut helmets. I'd rather have something that looks realistic/not far off than something that's clearly not feasible.
just saw the new TV commercial.
looks effing amazing.
there's also a split-second shot of what I'm guessing is a Space Jockey that we haven't seen before.
new tv commercial, niglets

also, i don't mean to be threadhijacking, but i hope the OP is updating with all this shit.
edit: i guess media tags don't work on private links? lame.
Nope. These new videos give too much away, I'm just putting that first trailer in OP.
Also you're bad at media tags
the wonder con footage has additional clips. I think I see a facehugger around 54 seconds
New TV spot just played during Mad Men. Nothing new near as I can tell, but it was nice. That scene of Prometheus landing was beautiful.
no no no no no no NO
THERE ARE NO ALIENS IN THIS MOVIE
STOP SAYING THERE ARE
/FUCK
That, or Ridley Scott's a big liar.
I'm more along the lines xenomorphs don't show up ,but are mentioned or seen as drawings/craving etc
Lol what's going on with the dude's voice at the end when he says "this film is not yet rated". Listen to how he says 'rated'.
"This film is not yet ratHED"
Only thing I've seen is a chest burster type creature that's been shown before in a few clips.
That guy's eye really REALLY creeped me out.
why are you spoiler tagging the stuff from trailers
Well, some people refuse to watch them because trailers sometimes reveal a lot from the movie
I think that's smart but maybe you could at least link to them.
I'm looking at it in slow motion now and it looks like some type of worm is burrowing into his eye. It's probably used to control minds or some shit.
The European trailer even gives away some plot points that the US trailer didn't have.
Holy fucking shit information OVERLOAD. Empire magazine article scans here: http://www.prometheusnews.net/movie/...pire-magazine/
Cool find. I'm excited for this movie.
IGN did an Analysis video for Trailer 2
http://www.ign.com/videos/2012/03/21...etheus-trailer
Very informative.
Apologies if this was already posted, I went back 2 pages didn't see anything.
fuck
i have to stop reading these things and watching trailers shit I want there to be SOME mystery to the movie before i watch it
I actually have that issue but didn't read it.
apparently this imax trailer has new footage, but i'm gonna stop looking at shit so i don't spoil the movie, i'm pretty sure it's what made watchmen less enjoyable
From the looks of it, that guy with the mohawk is the infected member leaping down. I guess we can assume he dies.
it doesn't show too much...
nothing that would ruin the movie atleast, just some new shots to remind us that this is a horror movie.
looks really cool.
the thing I love about movies like this is, no matter how much you deduce from the trailers, you'll never know 100% what's gonna happen, what it's really about.
there's aliens and people die.
that's the abridged version of what I've gathered so far.
He's a terrific actor as well.
Looks badass too.
Ridley doesn't want us to over analyze? I wonder what he's getting at...
Ridley Scott presents...
FREUD
"Because sometimes a phallic-headed rape monster is just a phallic-headed rape monster."
I'm glad he seems to not be so disenfranchised with the universe he created.
I mean really, how pissed would you be if the world you created became some bullshit like "Alien v.s. Predator."
In any case, I'm excited as fuck for this movie.
Edited:
That's also a lot of Geiger's work.
I can hardly wait for this to finally come to cinema.
