So this is apparently that description:

Spoiler
So my friend said
Spoiler!!!


He didn't like the trailer, lots of scenes from either Prometheus and/or Alien. He wasn't clear and I didn't want to push for details. Ends with a couple making out in the shower and a xenomorph tail snakes between their legs and snatched on and kills them off screen covering the other in blood.

Sounds extremely fake... T&A isnt a selling point for Alien films, infact I think the ONLY Alien film I can think of that had the T&A aspect (if you can call it that) is AvP: Requiem. A few bubbly teenage girls with nice bodies that get merc'd. Boy meets girl aspect and thats about it...

Unless you wanna count Ripley banging Clemens in A3... and thats REALLY pushing it!

Oh and MAYBE whats her face in A: Resurrection in her knickers getting a massage from the guy who played Top Dollar in The Crow. ;)

I remember back just before Prometheus was released, people would come on here claiming they'd seen early footage of the trailer or film itself and post all manner of nonsense. I'll see if I can dig up a few of the more hilarious ones.




Found one! This one's a classic!  :laugh:

Yeah it's mostly put together from what was already shown in trailers and teaser by that time. A lot of rubbish but also quite a few things that were spot-on. It's also funny how the ending almost leads into Alien: Covenant fifteen years later with a colony ship (called the Magellan, from Spaiths as yet unreleased draft) heading off to the Engineer home-world and all that.  :laugh:

Title: Re: Possible Trailer Description?
Post by: DorkiDori on Dec 01, 2016, 09:53:04 PM
This really struck me...

"back on the alien ship David is spared by this being who realises he is not human. It then shows him stuff via holograms of who they are, where they came from and it turns out they arent the beings who created us after all. They are androids like David and their creators are intelligent giant humanoids with banana shaped heads and these alien androids were punished for giving mankind too much freedom and technology and had a war with their creators. These alien androids have been trying to recreate their own androids/clones that resemble their creators but failed which led to their own kind being destroyed instead by their creation. The android alien takes pitty on David and infects him with something before sending him on his way."

I wonder if that idea holds any water into what were going to be introduced to in Covenant?!

Every movie and studio's situation is different. Universal might not have any of their own movies coming up anytime soon that would be suitable to put The Mummy's trailer on.

Everyone has their own game plan anyway.

Post by: motherfather on Dec 02, 2016, 01:11:06 PM
Urgh. Why do we need nakedness and between the sheets in an alien movie? I blame Prometheus, although I guess you cant have a between the sheets moment entirely off screen for the plot they were trying to push.

The only shower scene is Hitchcock style - in there alone. Otherwise forget it...

I just hope its 2 seconds of the movie that goes down the nakedness and sexy time angle. If its more than that and sexburster, then I see no reason why they don't do the same for the alien creatures and show how they eat, sleep, reproduce, take freaking baths or lick themselves... That is the only scenario in which I am prepared to see humans getting it on in an Alien franchise film, when Alien and Aliens managed perfectly fine without it.

You give us sexy time for humans, you can damn well go to the trouble of revealing the same for the creatures.

Seriously, I am hoping this is a joke.  There is zero way you can legitimately do a shower scene like that in 2016 and be taken seriously.  It's maybe the biggest cliche in horror movies.

Out of everything that has been leaked about this movie, this, if not a deadpan joke like I am hoping for, is probably the stupidest idea.  Shower scene, Connections to Ripley, this is all read like the ideas of someone who has completely lost the plot.

This sounds right up there with other classic shower scenes....like the one in "Jack Frost".  No not the one with Robin Williams, the other Jack Frost.

I'm starting to get a really bad feeling about this movie.  Like, the plot is starting to sound like a terrible slasher movie.  Replace Colonists with Teenagers and an alien planet with the wood/an island

"A group of teenagers go off for an adventure in the woods and encounter a crazy scientist experimenting with forces he doesn't fully understand."  It sounds like an awful slasher flick.  Toss in the shower scene (which I hope is a joke or an in-joke I just don't understand) and you have the makings of a completely generic sack of shit.

Hopefully the colonists brought beer, pot, and plan to have lots of premarital sex.

I like trashy horror flicks for what they are.  I certainly wouldn't call them good films.  Fun sometimes, enjoyable to watch with a group of people, but 99% of the time not good (the Orignal Halloween is an exception to that rule, as it is a great film that still manages to be creepy to me years later).

After AvP:R, i was hoping they would leave this sort of thing behind (because that was at its core just a terrible slasher exploitation film with zero redeeming qualities, and possibly the worst film I have ever seen).
Title: Re: Possible Trailer Description?

They are good only to clear your mind from time to time... (in my case in very rare occasions).
but horror without motifs, believable characters/actions, psychological
tension and atmosphere is nothing in my book. I m a great fan of atmosphere, strong acting,
psychological tension and therefore consider The Silence of the Lambs as one of the greatest
movies in that field. Of course when we speak about SF (horror) then we cant even start to speak
without mentioning Alien, The Thing, Videodrome, The Fly,...and many other movies (often older ones)


*P.S. Cameron's sequel to Alien is different in many fields from the original one.
Aliens is not a movie of atmosphere but it builds its tension upon action and
fast sequences. Its an action-horror/thriller, and one of the best in SF genre. Great sequel.

The reason for that is most of this franchise is really bad.  Alien is fantastic, Aliens is fun, Prometheus is a mess of ideas with some good in it, I actually kinda like Alien 3 for the look, pacing and set design.  The rest of the films, books, comics, and pretty much everything beyond "Isolation" and a couple of the coin op video games have been just absolutely terrible.  It's hard to keep a level of excitement when you read stuff like "shower scene".  "Shower Scene" in my mind translates to "Boobs and blood" film making beyond the original Psycho.  It's not something I normally associate with good parts of Alien.  It's also something I don't really see Scott doing, which is why it seems extra surprising and out of place. 

Again, there might be a joke I am missing, or it could be total horse shit.  Having Hicks confirm there is a shower scene in the film wasn't the direction I expected this thread or the movie to go in.

I've been guilty of it, we all are. But the fact remains we haven't seen the teaser yet. It probably won't be as good as the Prometheus one, but we all have to be confident the final product will be better than Prometheus.  For such hype, it was one of the flattest dullest movie experiences of the past 5 years.

I didn't exactly wet myself during the Arrival trailer but that was bloody amazing as an end product. Perhaps if there is a shower scene, it might not be indicative of the whole movie? There might not even be a shower scene. Who knows for now.

I hate "Silence of the Lambs" with a burning passion, I don't find it believable at all and find the acting comical and ham-fisted.  I also fully accept it is not my kind of movie.

The rest, I totally agree with.  I love the golden period of Cronenberg and Carpenter.  "Possession" by Andrzej Żuławski is a good example of a horror movie I love, which combined a lot of elements, and probably shouldn't work as a movie but somehow does.  Even most of the exploitation horror stuff I like falls on the abstract side (Lucio Fulci's "The Beyond" is a favourite of mine).  The slasher genre, unless done really well or with a good sense of fun and not taking itself to seriously, is mostly a miserable viewing experience to me.

On the Ridley Scott thing, he's done 2 and a half films l've enjoyed.  Alien, Blade Runner, and half of Prometheus.  The rest I either haven't seem or just weren't of interest to me.  I guess I just don't have the faith in him some people around here have.

Nudity doesn't bother me.  Out of place nudity annoys the shit out of me.  That is the tactic of genre films, the entire "let's have a rape scene so we can get boobs in the movie" world of film making (I know I am using an extreme example, but we are discussing a franchise that dips its feet into the exploitation pool every so often).  While I like a lot of trashy movies, this just strikes me as out of place in an Alien movie that doesn't have the word "Predator" attached to the title.

The shower scene doesn't bother me. You are naked, at your most vulnerable. I think that was part of the reason Ripley gets undressed down to her underwear in the Narcissus before the final showdown.

What bothers me is a mix of Alien and Prometheus footage. Ridley didn't do the best job of keeping the visuals consistent between the two which was one of my many gripes. The contrast might be jarring.

Unless by 'lots of scenes from either Prometheus and/or Alien' he means carbon copies with different characters. Either way, doesn't sound great. If any of this is legit. He's very vague.

I get that some of our/my views can seem knee-jerk, Im very liberal generally, its not the t&a that bothers me per se. Its rather that it will be in the movie and have undue focus, or too much camera time for very little plot payoff, or be out of place, while other perhaps more pressing and important aspects are not captured by the camera lens.

This should be a film that deserves greatness. Not cheap tricks that would be more fitting in a high school slasher "I know what you did last summer travelling to your final destination of Scream"

I also worry about who the target audience is supposed to be at this very early stage in marketing when already the t&a starts. Neanderthals? Funny they don't show someone on the john if they want to shock and catch someone in a vulnerable moment. Nope thats always skipped over completely in favor of good ole reliable sexy shower scene.

What exactly did Charlize Theron doing press ups in underwear add to Prometheus? Her character was a complete waste of space in my eyes. Its also dangerous to be doing exercises on a wet SLIPPERY floor. Especially after you have just awoken from cryosleep and shouldnt be attempting any extreme movements until you have served yourself from the vending-machine that advises you to drink lots of fluids and consume protein presumably to also counteract the vomiting.

The only other shower scene in scifi I can think of was the Xfiles episode about the soon to be man-sized flukeworm that was coughed up by the host as he was taking a shower. That scene was probably about 30 seconds tops and allowed the worm to squidge off into the sewer network.

What exactly did Charlize Theron doing press ups in underwear add to Prometheus?


Showing the character in intimate moments gets the audience to identify with them more.  Otherwise she's just a cold bitch standing in the background.  I didn't think her character was much, personally, but that was her best scene in the movie IMO.

That whole bit was laughable. When the characters in the movie think she might be an android because she has all the emotional depth of a banana, you know you've got a stinker.

Hey man, some of my best friends are bananas.

I don't think a shower scene is going to kill the franchise if it survived AvPR. We'll just have to see how it goes down.

I can say that I thought the sex in Prometheus was stupid as F, especially when it comes to Janek & Vickers. Luckily it was off screen but seriously, no one should be f**king in a situation like that. No one should be drinking, smoking, f**king, antagonizing, arguing, or doing most of the unprofessional stuff they were doing on that ship. Frickin' ridiculous that a trillion dollar mission in space would be allowed to go down like that. The clearly imbalanced guy they hired even smuggled weed on board, & then stuffed it in his f'kng respirator.

Doobies! In space! Arrrgh!!!

I remember there was originally a scene in Prometheus where someone has a chestburster type death scene during sex. Then they changed the story and didn't shoot the scene.

So I wouldn't be surprised if there's a "sex scene death" in this movie.

On the toilet. Riddles wants vulnerable? You got it!  No reason why that can't be in the film if they are going to the trouble of shooting a sexy shower scene a deux.

The scene's in the film according to people who watched it.

Funny enough it's perfectly acceptable to dislike the concept of a scene, particularly in an online discussion board. Nobody's writing off the film, that one scene just sounds like wank to some. Doesn't to others. Hence discussion.

Also what's with people making it so personal? Some are talking about the scenes and then others come in biting at the commentators. Grow up.

I'm leaning towards it. I've no issues with them reusing old footage personally but I'm sure folk will feel cheated. I really think they're going to push the Alien angle and nostalgia. I'd also be somewhat happy if they didn't overdo it with showing off footage from the film too.

I honestly see them pushing for the nostalgia factor too, and I don't mind if the trailer reuses some prometheus and Alien footage. Hopefully it shows off a quick collage of frantic Covenant scenes aswell. Preferably scenes of the shit really hitting the fan  8)

I prefer a first teaser more evasive and subtle !!

Having blood in the trailer doesn't equate to being over-the-top just yet. It's not like they're capitalizing on the gore like Requiem.

Me too! After reading all the various tweets coming out from those that got to see 15 minutes of the movie followed by the trailer today, I am SUPER excited!!! Some of my fav quotes:  "lots of nods to James Cameron's "Aliens." Katherine Waterston says there are parallels to Ripley." "Nauseating and many "holy shit" moments.Hosts asks, "did you lose your lunch?" from footage." :o "The first #AlienCovenant footage is intense as hell."

Here's some specific tweets from the Showcase event regarding the trailer -

Quote#AlienCovenant looks haaaaard R rated. Horrifying trailer.

https://twitter.com/ThePlaylist/status/806942869743345664

QuoteJust saw the #AlienCovenant trailer and I think you guys will be happy. I'll just say this: face hugger. old-school xenomorph @joblocom

https://twitter.com/arcticninja/status/806942700197019648

Quotealso, and you guys aren't going to believe this, but the ALIEN: COVENANT trailer features a slow, sad cover version of a classic song.

https://twitter.com/davidehrlich/status/806942671092809733

QuoteI am not kidding when I tell you that the Alien Covenant trailer has a scene in it that reminded me of Snakes On A Plane. 🤔

https://twitter.com/vqnerdballs/status/806942662431571968

Quote#AlienCovenant trailer is good!! And the shower scene was killer 😂

Ah yes, I remember now. So it's likely this one isn't gonna just sneak up on us out of the blue, either.

My guess is: after Rogue One's opening weekend has ended.

Fox probably had multiple teams working on trailers so they could pick which approach was more effective, emphasizing the Prometheus -> Alien '79 connection or a more standalone approach emphasizing the Alien brand itself.

Hey guys check this out the guy that posted that trailer has just went on IMDb and says that the has not only the 15 minutes, but the trailer as well, and he will only show it if you pay him:

  entire 15 minutes of clips. Nothing is free in life, however. I'm willing to post more footage for a price. How many of you would be willing to donate $2 via PayPal? If enough people are interested, we shall proceed.

Now who wants to pay him?? :laugh:
Then i say: respect the creator and the man behind the Alien universe, if i would pay an internet random dude to show me stolen stuff, i would dissrespect good old Ridley and the work he has done and i can be weird sometimes but i rather wait in agony then to pay to the downfall of mankind, f**k that guy and his footage.

Yet the link you posted about Prometheus isnt much off of the original movie, its possible he saw a rough script version?

Agreed, I'm still confused about that. The description came out before the movie did, yet describes scenes that were in the final film but not in the advertising. Perhaps it was some kind of weird attempt by Fox to release false rumors to confuse people? Hollywood advertising people have done weirder things...

I think that 14 Dec date for AC that google is returning is probably for it's Hollywood premiere. It's only being released 21 Dec in most countries around the world including US.

That said, they don't usually have trailers in front of a films premiere do they? It's usually just the director or a lead actor who does the introductions and then the film begins.

So when u say i am gonna need patience. .you damn right. . Lol. .tho i am sure you referring to the gameplay. . Propably a challenging game. . Right?

It should run well on Xbox One and PS4 if you have either of those.

I do mean gameplay wise though. It's not a game you can rush around. Gotta take your time, be patient, be immersed.

. . Not much of a console type of guy, i don't own a xbox or playstation. . .i love pc. .though many years ago i had the first playstation that came out and their was a game based around alien resurrection. . .that might have been the title of the game as well. . .but f**k me it was scary as hell. ..it just had such an eery atmosphere to it and them aliens would just suddenly jump out at you. . It was also super unforgiving and their was save points. . .miiles apart. . .a very frustrrating game but at the same time. . Technically superb for back in those days. . .with just the right type of atmosphere. . . If alien isolation could top that with hi res texture maps and higher polygons. . .and i am pretty sure it does. . Then i am in for a great experience..  . .obviously all other mechanics will be way more advanced by now. . I actually worked as an artist at a game developer many years ago. . .i know tech has developed immensely since that stage. . I haven't done much gaming in the last couple of years. .and i much prefer rpg and rts games to fps.  . .i really suck at the latter. . . But if theirs aliens. . .then i am in!

It was on my buddies computer. It's gonna air soon, hopefully tomorrow with Star Wars

He receives and attends junkets on promotions for Films. I wouldn't want to get him in trouble.

It's definitely, without spoiling anything, going back to the samd textures and production in order for Prometheus & Alien.

Seeing as Star Wars is a bankable property, it would have made sense to put the trailer with this feature so as to maximize the number of people who you could interest with it.

Trailers, lately at least, have been released early in the morning and late in the evening up until Friday. So...wishful thinking says "they are just going to spring it on us at the last moment!"; realist is saying, "we are still collating".

Lol. Covenant is probably so far away from anything Spaihts and Scott talked about. After they talked about trilogy plans, Scott then talked with Lindelof. Then Paglen wrote the movie, then Green rewrote, then Logan...

Shaw was likely the main character, for one...
Title: Re: Possible Trailer Description?
Post by: Protozoid on Dec 16, 2016, 01:26:20 AM
I think Passengers was written before Spaihts ever met with Ridley Scott about Alien, so if anything, Scott borrowed from Spaihts a little. The idea of couples on a colony ship isn't far from Passengers. I actually read Shadow 19, a spec by Spaihts from before he got anything produced. Very fun script with pretty weak characters. I still think it would make an amazing movie if they got someone to work on the characters and dialogue a bit with him. In Shadow 19, there is a ship called the Prometheus...

Ah, interesting. In another thread I talked about how the medpod from Prometheus appears in Passengers. But now it sounds like Spaihts borrowed the medpod from his Passengers script and put it in Prometheus.

I reckon they'll have actually returned to more of Spaihts' original concepts with this about-turn back to Alien. We've already got Spaihts' proto-Aliens (Neomorphs) back. I think it's more likely Covenant will be far away from anything Scott and Lindelof talked about.

True. I imagine Lindelof's idea was full of Shaw and engineers exclusively. With a chronicles of riddick vibe.

I remain hopeful that the trailer may arrive any moment now. The lingering sense of anticipation is the only thing that keeps me going on at this point. With every new announcement I remain balanced, amidst a growing sense of excitement that now borders on resentment. Dear God, why must they keep us waiting this long? Why?!!!!

I enjoyed the video, however. I agree with his attitude toward Prometheus—it's nowhere near the atrocity some make it out to be. 

Prometheus is a good movie, some people just confuse not understanding something to that something being bad, tought it would be nice to see the deleted scenes IN the film, still it is perfectly coherent and logical, sorry for the people who did not understood it

Really?  ::)

I am not speaking for D88M, but IMO Prometheus isn't the abomination a lot of people here on this forum make it out to be. In fact, that opinion isn't wide-spread outside of internet soundboards. One of my co-workers, who isn't an Alien fanboy, said that "you didn't really need to know Alien to enjoy Prometheus" and I think that was part of the motivation for making the movie in the first place. My mother, who got us into Alien and Aliens, really liked Prometheus as well, and so did a lot of my friends and acquaintances who aren't uber die-hards with regard to this franchise. I always contend that if another version for an Alien prequel should have been made instead of Prometheus prior to Spaiths' pitch to Ridley Scott, Fox, and other members of the production committee then it would have been made. There was no incentive, prior to the failed Alien 5 idea between Scott and Cameron, to make an Alien prequel up until Prometheus was conceived. A better idea could have existed, but it was not bankable. As much as I hate it, being something of a purist, movies are made for a lot of different reasons—money being a huge one. Prometheus was worth putting a shit-load of money and talent behind and it was the best outcome after the horrible AVP movies. Now, is it perfect? Is it at times logical? I hate to say this, but there are a few things that irk the shit out of me upon re-watching the film. However, is it an incompetent mess? I argue no. I just wish that the pacing we got would be more evenly spaced out so as to include a little better character development, that's it.

Without it, we wouldn't be getting Covenant and by the sounds of it, this is a good thing.

I loved Prometheus and I totally agree with you !

All the inconsistencies I hear about prometheus were not. The one that irritates me most is the fact that Fifield gets lost in the cave while he mapped it ... But the card is not on him, it appears on the prometheus. In any case he does not have the map. Hence the fact that it is lost



Or people wondering why shaw and vickers do not deviate from the crushing vaisel. Easy to criticize when you have an omniscient view of the action. They are not pursued by a bicycle wheel but by a huge machine of at least 100 of circumference and their combinations coupled with stress prevent them from assessing the situation.

Prometheus is unfortunately a film very underestimated. Yes he has some weakness of writing but no he does not deserve this hatred.

Prometheus is the shallow remake of Alien....hence the who created us question and cool religious metaphors.
It fell between two chairs and became a mess in my opinion or i dunno who you guys say it in english. It was intended to be an Alien movie by Fox and an origin story by Ridley. But no excuse for the dumb characters in it.

Why the guy who has the map get lost?
Why do you want to pet a space cobra ...or any cobra if you are not Golic?
Why do you run away from a falling object in a straight line?
Why do you take off your helmet in an alien planet?
Why do you sacrafice yourselfs happily with your captain?
Why hide Weyland?
How Shaw runs around after a surgery?

So many times the movie got me out of the mood with these dumb things.


what was indeed cool about it for me:

- Sets
- Soundtrack
- Actors in general
- Fassbender especially


But back on topic. I think(hope) the trailer hits during x-mas or new years eve..

Fifield does not have the map !!!! There's nothing on his wrist. Stop telling stupid things! The plan of the temple appears in the Prometheus ship and not on the handle. One should look at prometheus with a little more attention.

I have already answered why she was running in a straight line. They do not get sued by a bicycle wheel but by a huge machine. Their close combinations do not allow them to properly assess the stress situation and you have a maximum panic.


About milburn, easy to denigrate its reaction. But the character may not know that he plays in a horror film and that the creature in front is a recombinant creature capable of twisting arms and possessing acid blood ... Milburn is just fascinated by this thing, he Just approached a little closer. But stop saying he had fun, to believe you he put his head next to him and made a selfie.


If he hides weyland may have been by what the gentleman and thought to be dead. And he did not want the crew to ask too much. The mission was supposed to be less serious for lack of tangible evidence. Better to hide in case.

Post by: szkoki on Dec 17, 2016, 10:00:00 AM
Thats why im afraid of Covenant....bc of Ridley.

He took out the scene where Milburn finds the little worms first....his death would make a little more sense.
He took out the scene of Janek and Vickers ...which would make Janek's sacrafice much more okayish.


Everyone makes mistakes but im just wondering why such thing as character development meant nothing to Ridley in Prometheus for some of his characters.


Fingers crossed for Covenant.

I don't want this to get too OT but I think the insinuation is that they both smoked the weed Fifield was smoking and that made them a bit poor in the decision making realm - when they encounter that snake - perhaps. I really think that the things people often site for why Prometheus is bad, seem mostly inconsequential. Like this, the running -and there is a shot in the film wher eyou see them try to scatter but they can't get far enough away - or the Pain Management Shaw seems to endure - That one, especially is wrong... There are drugs like Fentanyl or Dental Anesthetics which can already completely numb and localize a functioning part of the body. The things that really bother me are the inconsistencies with tone, the editing, the cut scenes, and some of the design. Specifically the hologram tech of the Engineers, not fitting in the Giger-aesthetic. Unless Scott eventually rights that wrong, by explaining that the Giger stuff was introduced and mingled with Engineer tech... That's the real problem FOR ME.

The weed was introduced in the same scene in which they died. No argument with any of your other points, though.

He would have but he did not. I do not see how that is an inconsistency. Plus what you say makes no sense. I can watch so many times the movie, if this scene is not in the movie then it is not.
And frodon could have gone to the mountain of destiny on the back of an eagle without passing all the stages and yet it does not make the lord of the rings a bad film. I do not understand the people who search for the smallest harm for this film.

It is not because people here have not loved the film that I have to submit to the general opinion. I liked Prometheus and I'm glad it exists. It is the beginning of a great saga.

EH-HEHEH-HEM!

So this 'shower scene' in the trailer we have heard about. It does sound a bit like the tail may go places similar to the insinuation between Lambert's - I mean, like we all sorta deduced between her legs where the - The place where some people might also try to stab - Oh nevermind.

I realize the Pot-Smoking in Prometheus occurs after they get lost, but it does at least explain him trying to touch the snake that later violently rapes his mouth.

Post by: Necronomicon II on Dec 18, 2016, 03:30:46 AM
Milburn and Fifield were initially freaked by the single, decapitated engineer, but later when they're wondering around post-storm - when they both find the large pile of engineer corpses - they're fascinated and inspect them, Fifield remarking how it looks like a painting. So one could argue that they had come to grips with the situation by that point. They both had access to number co-ordinates on their wrist devices, so they relied on that without Janek's help. That was complete foolishness on their part, but had the scene where Milburn spots the shed xeno skin (or was it 'pede skin?) been left in, that would have certainly helped, since that was clearly the wrong tunnel direction, and that should have been placed right after you see David stash the ampule. Man, I really hope we get a special edition, it won't be on the level of Kingdom of Heaven's transformative extended cut, but it would improve it. Anyway, back to the OT, I'm excited for this trailer and I think it's the right move to let Rogue One have centre stage right now.

well in another thread in witch i for some reason can't state an opinion. . Their was this himmelblau guy, he got very tense about the fact that the trailer has'nt dropped yet. .i think the reason it's taken this long is cause fox suddenly changed the release date by 2 and a half months. . So now their deadlines are screwed and things are a bit frantic. . At the same time they want to release a trailor that does the movie some justice. . I think the wait is gonna be worth our while. . Having said that. . Patience is running short. . I am hoping santa will deliver us that trailer. . No later than the 25. . Please!!!!


. .besides what is the advantage of having a trailer released so far ahead of a movie. . Mad max fury road had their trailor released like about 9 months before the movies release. . And one can only watch a trailer so many times.. .jist gives us way to much time to pick every detail apart and come up with what may be the whole f**king plot. . It's not something ridley or fox desires much i think. . I think the trailer for prometheus was a bit premature and spoiled the movie a bit.. .especially considering it was leaked first in atrocious quality. .still almost sure that was a fox marketing ploy. .

Well if you just landed a few hours on a planet that they say its probably of your maker Jesus and not Kanye West,
you just woke up after two years, go into an alien temple, find a bunch of dead bodies and they are f**king giants!!!
Yes that would freak me out a little and when im sitting down and a small snake comes toward me, it could be i wont be much afraid of such a small creature, its just small reasoning from my side but, i think the giant aspect plays a part.

If im correct this movie will have so much in it, if it shows Shaw or the xeno or a live engineer, he cant show us this,
i think we will get some fading in and out, some screaming and some cute guy and girl on the brink of getting killed and thats it.
Probably around march we get a interview and some more details on the movie.
This trailer that is coming will only make us even more crazy in here ;)

So this dude is reading every spoiler he can about the movie, yet is clogging up the board with inanity because the trailer isn't out. ::)
Agreed.

I think a quick tease of images would be good enough. I don't want them to blow their load with this. I love the idea of seeing a couple making love in a shower and then the Alien tail comes up between their legs though.

Yeah, I don't.  I think it is base and lowest common denominator.  It's slasher film 101, and that shit just bores me now.  Well, not bores, just I am kinda sick of the endless tying of sex and violence low rent horror movies use to get boobs into a movie.  That kinda vehicle for nudity just feels overplayed and pointless to me.  Alien is a horror movie, not an exploitation film, that kinda scene is right out of the exploitation playbook.

It had impact with Lambert as it was off camera and make entirely more terrifying because we didn't know what fully happened.  Making it incredibly obvious just....It's something right out of the shitty comics or AvP:R.   It reeks of fan-fiction of the lowest order.

I can see your point, but we don't know how Ridley has shot the scene. I hope he's chosen to shoot the scene with style rather than being explicit. Then again he did direct Hannibal.

Remember, Ridley does have a playful dark side. He's already reached for fruit from the Who Created Us and Why tree with Prometheus, already played around with optimism in The Martian, so it makes sense he wants his next outing to be diametrically opposed. He wants to scratch a different itch this time around.

Gore and nudity can be done artfully and does not equal exploitation, just watch European films instead of hollywood.

If theres boobs, there can damn well be penis. Im sick of that double standard.

If theres sexuality in an alien film, there can damn well be homosexuality too. Otherwise, there can damn well be none of any of it, and we just have a good Alien movie without all the amateur horror 101 stuff.

Gore and nudity can be done artfully and does not equal exploitation, just watch European films instead of hollywood.

Last I looked at a map Italy was part of the EU, and was the exploitation capital of the world for many many years and is probably the most celebrated country for horror movies outside of the USA.

Don't even bother with the recent trend of dressed up french exploitation films.  They are still, at their core, exploitation films.  Well made films, and I won't say enjoyable, but excel at being excellent feel bad movies.  .

Look I know you can do gore and nudity with taste (kinda),  Lucio Fulci's "The Beyond" is one of my favourite movies of all time and it is a gorefest of the cheapest kind.  I adore "Possession", the 1981 Sam Neill version.  I love horror films but I don't like 99% of slasher films, with the first Halloween being the big exception to that rule.  When I see someone say "Oh shit I hope someone gets a tail up their crotch" (I'm paraphrasing, but we all know that is where a tail between there legs is going) I shutter as it is so f**king base.  It's the gorehound side of horror I have never really gotten.

I just want to see if Im on the same page now -

So we are EXPECTING the trailer in 8 days or so, BASED ENTIRELY ON, the fact that the press embargo lifts then? Or we have some other concrete information? Like the release of Assassin's Creed?
Im so confused.

The scene where Hannibal feeds Ray Liotta his own brain was great.

I always thought that was more funny. The part where Mason Verger feeds his face to the dogs is what got me.

Actually I think it could be still with Assassin's Creed. Apparently the trailer played before Rogue One in a theater in Jamaica. lol

No official announcement but it was intimated to me by Fox that we'd be seeing it when the embargo ended. I'm expecting some sort of tease before hand so hopefully we'll know soon.
