Excuse me?

What are you talking about? Halo and Cortana have sex all the time. All the time.

Plugging into your brain/helmet? doesn't count as sex.
That's what I'm talking about, my man.Chief "invites her up".
Chief "invites her up".
That's like third base man. It's just a short walk from there.
If the last third of Sunshine didn't play out that way, then yes. Otherwise, District 9 is better.I'd say both Children of Men and Sunshine were much better than District 9 - which was a good film, but was not a great sci-fi film.
Wait a minute. Wake me = put batteries in me. Chief is Cortana's dildo. Nice.Any man that says "wake me when you need me" clearly knows he need not do the inviting.
I have a friend that has the weirdest dreams (straight out of Silent Hill stuff, way before Silent Hill existed) and sometimes we would draw these dreams and I always found his drawings fascinating. I remember showing him crazy Giger stuff to fuel his dreams but he started taking medication to make it stop instead.
I'd give your avatar a short walk, unf.
Anyway, I'm going to go with that interview thing and maybe it's just set in the same Universe, not the same scenario.
Okay, I'm going to make a wide guess based on watching the trailer 3 times: The ship is alive, and it IS an alien. One huge super lifeform that is made up of a colony of smaller lifeforms.
"It's changing."
"What is?"
"The ship."
"They're leaving."

It can't be the same scenario as I think the ship in alien is a different one and it was there ages ago, the space jockey was fossilized and stuff.
unless they traveled back in time in the end of prometheus
WAT?
Excuse me?
I really hope this is as amazing as it looks like its going to be... so hyped!
Didn't ebert call it Jaws In Space?

There you go.
There some other instances where there's a heavy resemblance to Avatar. But I can't find any other appropriate screenshots from Avatar at the moment.
I think Paul W.S. Anderson couldve done it better
Pretty sure I've figured out the Guy Pierce/Weyland angle in the script.
David, the android played by Fassbender *is* Peter Weyland. At least Weyland's conciousness. This is why a (presumed) pliant, obedient synthetic starts working to his own agenda and unleashes the threat. These technologies are I believe mentioned on the Weyland Corp Website, and this is why Scott/Lindelof are being so cagey about the size of Pierce's role. Presumably they have Fassbender copying Pierce's performance when he's acting under his own agency,
I'd also suspect that Theron's character (who's in cahoots with Weyland/David) is also a synthetic, although she may not be aware of it.
I'm sticking to my prediction that the convergence of Progenitor/Synthetic technology is what produces the "corrupted" biomechanoid alien, and the whole movie takes place on the planet that becomes LV426, malformed after a failed terraforming cycle by the alien craft.
There you go.

Umm holy shit wtf, do I need to watch the Alien movies? This looks really interesting and its a prequel right? So they went and 'found' the alien things? Then they Alien things went to earth?
Ugh, I struggle to watch really old sci fi. The dated special effects and the campy-ness tend to make it a labored watch for me.

Alien on Blu-ray is the best transfer I have ever seen. Besides the old school computers in the movie you'd straight up think the film was made in 2012.
Avatar invented holograms confirmed
This is a lie. You can definitely tell the movie was not made in 2012.
Because it would probably look worse.

When Ripley wakes up on the Sulaco in Aliens, the Blu-Ray makes certain details more visible than I thought they were.They should all be in their undies when waking up from cryo! Wonder if the Promethus' cryo hold has a heated floor.
Yup, he gave it four stars when it came out. Here's the Great Movies article.Ebert included it on his great movies list and his is generally positive about it.
As hyped as I am, I wish I had not seen it. I'm pretty sure I know the full story arc including the ending sequence.so how spoilery is the trailer? i want to watch it but im also pretty hyped for this. or should i just watch the trailer regardless?
Pretty much. I thought the Blu-Ray would not be kind to the Alien sets. Instead it revealed it for being one of the most meticulously designed productions out there. Simply timeless.This is a lie. You can definitely tell the movie was not made in 2012.

I would have loved to see this prequel include that level of technology.
Wouldn't really make sense. Nostromo is an old mining ship. Prometheus is a cutting edge science ship. Think of the old semi-trailer trucks you still see on the road today compared to the Space Shuttle Columbia.

Amazing how similar they are. Day -1.
Several of the large scale shots are pretty reminiscent, such as the Prometheus traveling in the planets atmosphere and the ship landing.The movie bears virtually no visual resemblance to Avatar.
And if the rumors I'm hearing are correct, it's a prequel to a prequel, because work has already started on the follow-up to "Prometheus," and there are things being designed and built that will break your brain when you see them. Yes, "Prometheus" has to do well internationally before Fox officially says, "Go make the second one," but I think there's a pretty strong chance that's going to happen. Besides, if it doesn't, this film's ending is going to drive fandom completely insane.
So Drew McWeeny says that a prequel to this prequel is already in the design stages:
