It’s about damn time! Sure we’ve had a look at a couple ‘official’ PROMETHEUS stills… but let’s be honest, they kind of sucked. Now here we are with some actual looks at the film and it’s stars! Oh yeah, get excited.
The fellas over at Bloody-Disgusting were kind enough to toss up some shots from the upcoming issue of Entertainment Weekly and guess what we’re treated to in those shots – Yup! Ridley Scott’s PROMETHEUS! Just scroll away above and below to get a peak at some of our stars as they explore the strange planet. Click through on either of the shots to check out larger versions and another shot over at BD.
Ridley Scott, director of “Alien” and “Blade Runner,” returns to the genre he helped define. With PROMETHEUS, he creates a groundbreaking mythology, in which a team of explorers discover a clue to the origins of mankind on Earth, leading them on a thrilling journey to the darkest corners of the universe. There, they must fight a terrifying battle to save the future of the human race.
Now if you’re feeling antsy, we’ve also got a rundown of the upcoming PROMETHEUS trailer for you guys. Apparently a few seconds of the trailer dropped onto these here interwebs the other day but needless to say that shite was yanked quicker then “Charlie’s Angels.” As I mentioned though, we do have an explanation of the trailer for you guys courtesy of Prometheus Movie News. Now personally I’m going to wait until I get to see this shite rather than read it but if you’d rather know ahead of time here you go. Mind you if you don’t want to be spoiled… just don’t read the red text.
“Trailer starts with a clip of Ripley from Alien and the words “What if the beginning” and then we see the mouth of the Xenomorph “Wasnt the beginning” or something like that. Then theres this shot of like a giant waterfall on some planet I don’t know what the planet was and a ship traveling to it.
Then we see like two cloaked people talking to eachother near the waterfall or something and theres a voice over from who I’m guessing is Noomi Rapace and she says something like: “A woman once told me a story of how man was created” then we see this giant human like creature thing (which im guessing is the Space Jockey thing from Alien but I’m not sure) Voiceover: “First there was the sun” and we see this giant oval alien ship covering the sky. Voice over ” And the sun said I’m alone and I have noone to shinedown on so it created man” and another shot of the giant space jockey thing. and then theres like shots of the crew on the space ship traveling to that planet
You see like a quick shot of Noomi Rapace and and the rest of the crew and a bunch of stuff is happening they’re all in their space suits running around with theyre flame throwers and stuff and theres this epic shot of this giant space station thing that looks like droid control ship from Star Wars Episdoe 1 falling down through the sky and the words
FROM THE DIRECTOR OF ALIEN come up and more shots of the crew in the ship running from explosions and stuff. Theres a shot of a green laser scanner thing running through a woman’s belly some more stuff then theres a quick shot of something bursting out from the space jockey thing.
And the last shot of the trailer is a close up Michal Fassbender in his space suit looking down at a kid face to face and he holds up a finger and he says “Big things have small beginnings” then the title comes up PROMETHEUS 6.8.12
I marked out at Fassbender that was a cool line, great teaser trailer it should be hitting theatres within the next month or so maybe I can’t wait”
