I really love that shot of Noomi running down the corridor, looking behind her. It's not new, but I just love it.

I feel a new sig coming on...

The shot of the sunset and the Gigerish hill in the foreground is very nice, classic Ridley. I must say the marketings been great so far. All the viral stuff and featurettes aside, I see Prometheus trailer on TV every 15 minutes

What the heck does LMG say to David?

sounds like:  "why did they even hit us in the first place".

I suppose it could be:  "why did they even hid us in the first place". 

The first doesn't seem to make narrative sense,  the latter doesn't make grammatical sense.   ???

Well that certainly makes sense in the context of the story.  But every time I play it, I keep hearing a strong "h" sound at the beginning of the word.

Denda, that also would make a certain sense.  However, the word (to my ears) sounds like it is only one syllable.  "Hire" is two syllables.  No matter how many times I listen to it, the word sounds like it starts with an "h"...that is why I can't hear the word "made", as previously mentioned by brodels.

Could it be...."why did they even hate us in the first place"?  That also doesn't really make sense.  The only thing that does make sense is "made", but I just don't hear that.  Weird.  I am probably losing my hearing.

i'm 99% certain he says "why they even made us in the first place", but since LMG is saying it in a kind of amused manner he makes it sound like "...ma-hade us...". listen closely.

I've seen it 3 times, and I've heard 'made' each time. Also...just a bit further in the conversation David asks Holloway, or they start talking about what creations may ask their creator. David says something like "if you could ask your creator one thing, what would it be? (or something like that) "why did you make me?" "because we could"

It's definitely 'made'

Jockey style baby. They hit it like DIS!

Sorry. It was right there.


Does sound like "made" to me, too, though.

It's LMG's fault.

Nice shot, seen before, but a LOT clearer and from a different angle.  Looks like Ford and other redshirt.  When I first saw the shot months ago I assumed that the frozen character was Shaw, but it's definitely Ford. Hmmm.

Oh gosh, that's either an unfortunate looking fold or some serious cameltoe from Ford.

Post by: DendaReloaded on May 24, 2012, 07:52:57 PM
we saw some low-res of the back of the head llooooooooong time ago
i first thought the jockey platform is on top of the head, so the head is flat, not rounded, looked to me this way :D

Yeah I can remember thinking that too, lol.  Another thing that's never gone away is, when I heard about this giant head that's supposed to pilot the Jockey ship, long before we saw anything of the film, there were even rumours that it was a living part of the Juggernaught.  Can't really see it happening now but, at the same time, nothing would suprise me about this movie either!

i remember the sentence "... there will be a giant head piloting the shipt, which will be cgi, as i assume" (or so)
also was long ago, but some weeks ago we had soem report saying the headis actually moving and changing
"changing into what???...."
dunno
Title: Re: New featurette: Vision
Post by: Vickers Valiant on May 24, 2012, 08:31:42 PM
I keep seeing people mentioning the giant head being the pilot of some ship. Where was this mentioned? Is it a really old leak or something? Is it from a credible/legitimate source?
Title: Re: New featurette: Vision
Post by: DendaReloaded on May 24, 2012, 08:33:30 PM

but i thought the head is in the pyramid, not in the ship

and those urns will be f**king flying around the whole room, if tte ship takes off

That's what I thought also when Holloway said that. I've also had the impression that Holloway was an Evolutionist and Shaw was a Creationist.

I agree with Corporal Dwayne Hicks!! I live in the US and that sounds like a plan! I don't mind cutting it off after ALIENS. I will be looking for the ALIEN vibe in Prometheus. I have to wait until I come back from the Star Trek Convention in Nashville on June 9th & 10th before I see the film in JAX Florida in 3D! I might have to wait until the following weekend before I can see it. I KNOW-HOW COULD YOU???? By that time it will be safe to see it without all of the noise, texting & kids crying in the show! I am taking my son (who is the same age I was watching ALIEN for the first time) & I know it will blow our minds!

This is going to be EPIC! I know this will be the BEST film of the year!!!!!!!!
(Don't start the AVENGERS argument-that is a totally different type of film & should NOT be compared to Prometheus!!!)

Really? I would have thought probably after the first temple visit, when they are a little more clued up about what they have found, but who knows? There might be much larger clues than the cave paintings in the first act.

Maybe, just maybe, after watching the entire film it might make a bit more sense as to why the characters in the film believe the engineers are our makers? Maybe a 2 minute trailer isn't enough context to get pissed about?
