Wow. That's all I can say. What a gnarly trailer! I am so psyched up for this film. From the trailer, I can see very little that would lead me to believe that this film will be PG 13. I think that's all BS. Fox knows that even a solid R will generate millions as long as it is a solid movie. Ridley has always been a visionary so I believe regardless of the rating he will deliver something fantastic. It would surprise me though if he does go for a PG 13. Given his panache for the shocking, I am skeptical that this film will be anything other than R. I love everything I've seen so far. As far as the new look for the space suits, I'm okay with it. Granted the PS touch-ups are bad but I think they'll look great on screen after post. I aree with the whole scientists vs. blue collar working stiffs argument as to why the crew of the Nostromo had older looking stuff. Different ship, different purpose and different type of funding.
I remember seeing the original back in '78 when I was 9 years old. It forever addicted me to the SF genre. Like a junkie, I keep looking for that same rush of something so completely different that it inspires a whole new style of story telling. I feel totally confident that Scott will pull it off. I really don't even care how much it ties into the original as long as the story is solid. Man, talk about a fantasy coming true. After all these years, Ridley Scott directing new Science Fiction in the Alien Universe. So unbelievably cool.
