PanzerMeyer Albatros pilot for the Kaiser King Crimson - SimHQ's Top Poster Registered: 04/04/01 Posts: 72154 Loc: Miami, FL USA	Some more pics from the upcoming sci-fi movie directed by Ridley Scott. In pic #2, doesn't the architecture look familiar? http://www.prometheusnews.net/movie/breaking-new-images/ _________________________ I aim to misbehave.

Jaz Member Registered: 01/05/07 Posts: 594 Loc: Dordrecht, the Netherlands	It looks very familiar. I'm really looking forward to this movie. I'm really curious as to how it'll tie into the Alien franchise. It'll be great (I hope). Jaz _________________________ Never impose on others what you would not choose for yourself - Confucius

Raw Kryptonite Beat the Kobayashi Maru Hotshot Registered: 04/04/08 Posts: 7071 Loc: MS	I'm getting more and more excited about a movie set in that universe and time frame, but not about the usual Alien conflict. Fleshing out the time in general is really going to be fun and good sci if. Maybe good enough to kick off a big budget epic sci fi renaissance? _________________________ •XBL/Xfire: Raw Kryptonite •Logitech G27 Nixim •360 Wheel •AMD FX-4170 •Sapphire Radeon HD 6950 2GB GDDR5 •16 GB Corsair Vengeance 1600mhz PC3-12800 •MSI 990FXA-GD65 Mobo •X-Fi Fatal1ty Pro/Logitech Z-5500 •Win 7 64

Jedi Master Entil'zha Big Kahuna Registered: 02/15/00 Posts: 33095 Loc: Space Coast, USA	Having just rewatched Alien and Blade Runner in the past couple of months, I'm also eager to see him finally return to SF. I'm not getting my hopes up for an "Alien" story though. I think he's tried hard enough to debunk that. The Jedi Master _________________________ Back off, man. I'm a scientist.

Bib4Tuna Member Registered: 04/29/04 Posts: 1276 Loc: NC, USA	Well this took me by surprise... WARNING: MAJOR SPOILER Click to reveal.. No Xenomorphs in Prometheus!!?? Quote by Ridley Scott Quote: No. Absolutely not. They squeezed it dry. He (the xenomorph) did very well. (He laughs) He survived, he’s now in Disneyland in Orlando, and no way am I going back there. How did he end up in Disneyland? I saw him in Disneyland, Jesus Christ! Source: http://www.avpgalaxy.net/2011/12/17/ridley-scott-talks-prometheus-giger-xenomorphs/ WAH TEH FRACK!!?!?! Oh well... let's see an original story for a change. Edited by Bib4Tuna (12/20/11 06:47 PM) _________________________ "Hello. It's me, Jesus. I'm calling you from The Matrix."

PanzerMeyer Albatros pilot for the Kaiser King Crimson - SimHQ's Top Poster Registered: 04/04/01 Posts: 72154 Loc: Miami, FL USA	I have very little doubt that "Prometheus" will be a fantastic sci-fi film and I'm glad that they are taking this in some new directions instead of re-treading old ground. If Scott wasn't involved though I'd be much more apprehensive. _________________________ I aim to misbehave.

Bib4Tuna Member Registered: 04/29/04 Posts: 1276 Loc: NC, USA	Silly me... Yeah, I missed the change in direction: Quote: Was originally intended as a prequel to Ridley Scott's Alien, but Scott decided to turn it into an original film with Noomi Rapace (who was already set to star in the prequel) still in the cast as one of five main characters. Some time later however it was confirmed that while the movie will take place in the same universe as Alien, and greatly reference that movie, it will, for the bigger part, be an original movie and not a direct prequel _________________________ "Hello.
