Earlier, AlienPrequelNews originally got their hands on a shot of the first Prometheus poster. Collider have since posted a high-res version online.
The poster shows someone exploring with the humanoid head in the background. The tagline reads: ‘The Search For Our Beginning Could Lead To Our End’.
"i find your lack of faith disturbing"
That got me thinking...
Who is creepier looking, Giger or Stephen King?
THANK YOU! My good friend sent me a message earlier today, that he saw PROMETHEUS cardboard cut-out at a local theater, but he didn't have any photos.

Sorry for the side way looking image. I'm not used to taking images with a phone.
Sad, but true!

All I know about the giant head is it suppose to be the pilot of someone's spaceship
"people are going to be in for a shock when they sit down to watch Prometheus and there's an enormous semi-human head piloting a spaceship."
By the way, since February/11 we all read about this rumor:

I wouldn't have minded that version of the chestburster, actually. Seeing a viciously mutated chicken carcass squealing like a pig while it's punching its way out of someone's chest cavity would be suitably disturbing. The facehugger redesign, however, was certainly an improvement.
Allegedly, yes.
We'll know more, eventually. The truth could be different.
That is glorious!!
Yep, if Giger wasnt direct by Ridley, the facehugger would look like a weird lobster:

Or even worst, the chestburster would be a crazy featherless chicken:

And you only can see that face from a certain point of view...
And its in fact just a weird formation of rocks...
I don't think so. If trailer was 2 min long, we would see this changes on site.
Maybe they've decided to release the other version? The one where we saw a brief segment of it...
Yes he is very eccentric and needs to be used in the right way I think. Ridley talks about how he had to constantly pull Giger back to that one alien design that he wanted, even though Giger insisted that it needed to be re-designed. If he had been allowed to re-design it who knows, it might have been even scarier.

..or this time "redesigned" alien..according to Ridley Scott.
No. Like any artist, he can get a bit ahead of himself. If his designs for 'Alien 3' had made it intact to the big screen, it would have been an even more WTF production than it already was - especially from a biological perspective.
Every artist, Giger included, needs direction, not complete and total control.
Otherwise, you get the Geroge Lucas effect.
Neither was the Alien Queen, but she was designed beautifully and I've never read him say a bad word about it.
Let's wait and see.
Hah! Yes... I was wondering what all of this stuff was reminding me of.
Brilliant! I see a girl with a torch! Amazing.

Flacid uncircumcised penis? Coincidental I'm sure...
"We had a good relationship with Giger for many years. We showed him the script for [Prometheus] and he liked it. He's going to work a bit for me with this movie and has been working on a major project that comes in the film."
this is from an interview a while back with Ridley when they began shooting in Iceland.
That makes me happy! thanks, guys.
I think the quote was something like 'Giger is working on a special project for the movie [...] that will blow everyones mind'. Paraphrased, but that was the gist of it if I remember correctly.
-Chris
Yes, and it's purportedly highly secret and meant to be a big surprise, so it isn't the head; the least kept secret of the whole film. If there is any justice in the world it will be our new 'creature'.
-Chris
As I understand it, he's only done the designs for one element of the film.
