Nice, I like it.
Very nice, liking that alot ;)
Oh boy....it's similar to the poster I made..
This makes me really happy.
Spoiler
Maybe some sneaky Fox marketing execs came across my poster and took inspiration? ;D
The Search for the(our?) Beginning
Could lead to our end
Awesome stuff, its going to look great in high quality.
I hope the movie wont take place in the chamber with the head a lot. seeing this head again.
Great looking poster. Much better looking then I thought!
"the search for our beginning could lead to our end" ....hmmm, not far off the tagline I wrote, but who's in the picture I wonder....
Quote...which should be hitting the web in the next couple of days...
sounds uplifting!..
Wow that's really great.
Long time lurker, first time poster...
Seeing the official poster and knowing the trailer is imminent...definitely an exciting time to be fan of the Alien series and universe.
Nice. Sexy Noomi from behind ;)
Looking good! ;D
Great stuff - mysterious but nice and simple.
The tagline avoids any apostrophe ambiguity too! ;)
>> "The search for our beginning could lead to our end"
Lovin' the child-bearing-hips astronaut, very 'ampule' like...

wouldn't mind bearing children with Noomi Rapace :)
Like the poster. Not so happy about it being a PG13 - if that is still to happen :(
Oh - and some of the fan made posters some you guys made are much better. But that would always be the case I suppose.
but where the trailer, this poster isnt exciting at all considering how many time we saw that damn head.

I'll admit it does look like a photocopy of a poster, and photo looks like it was taken with a Nokia 7650 ;D
Didn't know it was coming out in August. Long way to go. :-\
This is a coool poster.
not fake, sorry

Really liking the poster ;D
it matches the simplistic style of the alien poster well, but it needs some color.

I really like it, looking at it closely it reminds me slightly of the Alien posters slightly, with the light coming from the torch...it reminds me of the green/yellow light coming from the eggs in the original poster.
Im do excited, this and the Dark Knight Rising poster in one week!
love it !!
nice tagline too

No I meant it in a good way. I mean, I'm not sure why I'm still looking for confirmation that this is an Alien film when it clearly is. But it's still interesting to see.
By the way you can see the dead "Jockey" in the Pic if you look closely. Also kind of looks like a big egg in the torch beam.
Is it just me or did the color just change...

Very nice. Really does have that Giger feel to it. Reminds me a lot of the concept work in his book.
Just imagine if we saw this before the leaked trailer or promotional photos. It would be a big, WTF, right there.
Looks good! You can see a familiar "drunken creature" laying on the ground in the brighten'd version.

It's so awesome!!! ;D ;D ;D
Hopefully this means a trailer by next week.
But I'm also worried because I see no IMAX in the poster. Would FOX really miss out on putting this film on those screens?

Yes I know that, but it's what it implies.
David Giler and Walter Hill producing? A Brandywine Production?
There is no doubt in my mind anymore that this is an Alien movie.
All that's missing is credit to Dan O'Bannon & Ronald Shusett but that would've really given it away...
Booty chick doesn't look like Noomi though. The hair is more like that of Kate Dickie (Imora).

That's a very good point actually....it does carry some hope we'll finaly get the film we've been waiting for. :)
Including Brandywine is contractual obligation.
It's just nice to see it all together like that... for the first time since Alien in 1979. :)

tmjhur expressed it best when he/she said 'F**K'. ;)
It's funny how after all the lead up and all of the leaks and everything we already know that seeing the credits in that movie credit font on an official movie poster makes it seem so much more real. The excitement factor just ramped up ten fold!

Thus proving that the only way they'll ever survive - is if they get a little crazy.
Guy Pearce has a very high billing, even over Logan Marshall-Green (confirmed to be Rapace's love interest in the film and a bloody awesome Dallas look-a-like with the long hair and beard), so it looks like Guy Pearce may actually be the Engineer! :D
Theres also a "and" before Charlise Theron... always left for important roles. :)

Good poster, subtle but effective it does the job , so speculation is Guy Pearce could be the engineer. Hopefully something will leak soon of what the jockey/engineer looks like. I think it's going to freak everyone out and be on alot of screen savers lol. Fox give us this damn trailer, they seem to be ignorant to the fact that trailer leak done them alot of credit it's kind indirect viral advertising to an extent lol, my favourite part was when you see the jockeys ship its so epic and empowering.

Quote from: harlock on Dec 15, 2011, 12:17:09 AMit looks like Guy Pearce may actually be the Engineer!
Isn't he labelled as Stannison in the cast list, or is that unofficial?
-Chris
It's from IMDB. So i'll take it with a grain of salt ^^
Thing is that Pierce role has been very hush hush since the beginning.
There's even a rumor that say that the production team was not happy that his presence was leaked.
If he was just another member of the crew we would have i think already know his role by now or heard him say something about it.
If the Engineers are actually humanoids (and all proofs leads to that) it would not suprises me that Pierce would be the one.
The Engineer needs to be played by actor who can be charming, scary and with a particular phisique.
Pierce has that particular face that makes him more that just a pretty boy.
Ican't wait to see him play god with those puny humans ^^
looks awesome.
Love it!
I nice ass-shot of Noomi is a nice bonus!
AWESOME....
The Urns in the poster are almost rounded like eggs....just a bit...if what I'm see are indeed Urns.
Where are you seeing urns?
Next to her legs or something....some kind of object.
With a bit of level adjustment you can clearly see the corpse, as well as the 'head' under the first M. And there are definitely urns visible, near her left hand.

Crazy that that critter is laying right there in the poster, and I still maintain that the 'head' is way too round to be a head.
Guy Pearce seems to have a bigger role than I suspected. He has third billing on the poster right behind Fassbender. Besides that, I wish we would get a poster that showcases something like the actual Prometheus spacecraft instead of a rehash of things we've already seen.
Quote from: Ash 937 on Dec 15, 2011, 03:38:27 AMHe has third billing on the poster right behind Fassbender.
Guy Pearce is much better known that Idris Elba and Logan Marshall-Green, and has been in more films including some Hollywood 'blockbusters'. This could be the only reason for being billed there. For The Hurt Locker he got a 'and Guy Pearce' credit, but then got blown up in the first ten minutes of the film. He was there because his name does carry some weight to it in movie circles.
-Chris
That's why I was surprised by the way he was billed here. I wonder how long he will last. ;)
Quote from: Ash 937 on Dec 15, 2011, 03:45:52 AMI wonder how long he will last.
He's my favorite Australian actor, so I kinda hope he is the Engineer, if such a character is played by anyone at all. Chances are he'll go early though... seems to be his lot ;)
-Chris
Yes, I understand that billing is figured out not only based on size of the role, but by prior credits as well. Same reason Keaton got 2nd billing on Batman.
Billing is often contractual. Liv Tyler and Cate Blanchett got billed high up ni the LOTR credits because of their profile, despite having a fraction of the screentime of a bunch of other people.

Don't think he was still working with them by that point. Wonder if there's a character called Eugene with an axe though...
All this talk about guy being the engineer. I guess it's a good guess at what he'd play. But I hope the jockeys are the creators and hopefully they look just like the one in alien.
Quote from: manuel809 on Dec 14, 2011, 08:09:44 PM
but where the trailer, this poster isnt exciting at all considering how many time we saw that damn head.
Patience, young Skywalker...
You'll recall the initial one for '
Requiem' was something almost everyone loved - and look how that turned out. It also
gave virtually everything away.
I, for one, would be more than happy for the leaked advert we've already seen to be the
only thing released until we see the film.
Besides, this doesn't look like it's going to be an action film. There won't be much they can give to make you excited without revealing something best kept hidden.
Like the creature designs.
Quote from: Alienhunter15 on Dec 14, 2011, 10:51:15 PM
If you look at the credits, you will see "music by Marc Streitenfeld".
Excellent catch! Now we can get an idea for how one of the most critical components for the film's atmosphere will be... The music.
And if anyone doubts that, try imagining '
Back To The Future' or any number of other truly classic films with completely different music. You won't get nearly the same emotional impact.

f**king oath = I heartily agree. Enough to use a truncated phonetic expletive. ("f**king" pron. "f**ken" shortened to "'ken"). To be truly correct it should all be pronounced as one word.

You can now clearly see the top of the head is domed, so maybe the picture (below) isn't from the top after all. UNLESS the domed head opens at what appears to be a 'split' (indicated) around the forehead.

Any thoughts???
Interesting observation, I have to say, but I somehow think that it will not be the case that the head opens up to reveal the platform where the chair will rise up. It is definitely nice to see that the Giger design of the original derelict interior is being used for all the stuff that belongs to the jockeys.
Also, have to say... It has an astonishing resemblance to the basic iconic image on 'The Fly' posters.

No sorry, I'm talking about that thing on the ground beside the dead creature, that Noomi and the other woman are inspecting in the official stills. Looking at it on this poster, behind the woman's left hand, I just think it's way too round to be a head.

We're in such dangerous territory now. There is so much expectation for Prometheus, so even if it's amazing, will we be able to gage it accurately?
Because of where technology is at the moment, there's not much we haven't seen....every kind of creature imaginable, every kind of space ship, landscape, etc.... What can Prometheus show us that we haven't seen? What can it tell us that we haven't guessed based off watching so many films between this release and since it's sister film A L I E N released 30+ years ago? Even the poster for Prometheus evokes other films, and yet, the poster for A L I E N is what inspired the likes of The Fly, Mimic, etc...
Ridley Scott has made a pretty bold move, and he's taking a huge risk...returning to a genre he helped to define while at the same time trying to craft a film for an audience that's seen everything, including a beloved series (Alien saga) go right down the toilet as fans have watched in frustrated disgust as what was once brilliant became complete mediocrity. That's a big mountain to climb. I raise my glass to Ridley Scott, may the film exceed my expectations.

But a tame version of Giger's work.
The crazyness is missing.
Well we will see.
I like the head.
It's very METAL HURLANT ^^
It's awesome...and it doesn't feel tame to me. It's a head. A lot of Gigers full on human heads (unless they're women) are just like that.
CAN'T WAIT!
So, is the consensus that the trailer will be on Girl With The Dragon Tattoo?
looks like the head might open up, or perhaps that light may just be the astronaut's flashlight

When asked about HR Giger's involvement in the film, Sir Ridley replies:
"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.

Maybe we'll see a Giger designed transformation scene involving one of the crew, one of them turning into god knows what :O If Giger is involved it's going to be something really unpleasant :D

Brilliant! I see a girl with a torch! Amazing.

If there were any justice in this world, Giger would receive full power on the Alien creatures in this film.
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.
QuoteThat head has nothing with Giger.
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.

Its Cloverfield all over again
Hah! Yes... I was wondering what all of this stuff was reminding me of. :)
Giger in fact praised the queen and felt like it was his own in a way because it came from his design. What I would like to see is a Giger designed queen.

..or this time "redesigned" alien..according to Ridley Scott.
Quote from: Xenomorphine on Dec 15, 2011, 11:09:44 PMLike any artist, he can get a bit ahead of himself.
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.

LatinoReview just tweeted me back telling me that the trailer for Prometheus seemed more like 2 minutes.
That can't be. The trailer was classed as being only 1 minute long...
Maybe they've decided to release the other version? The one where we saw a brief segment of it...

I don't think so. If trailer was 2 min long, we would see this changes on site. ;)
If you're being bombarded with imagery, one minute might well feel like two, it's a condensed version of why action films appear to go on too long. Perfect for trailers though.
We don't know how many trailers have been cut for promotional use. The initial teaser could easily around 2 minutes, with TV spot versions clocking in at a minute, etc... Just wild speculation of course ;)
The most beautiful part of it still is
Maybe its just a optical illiusion like the face on mars...
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 this is the way it is done ;D

Yep, if Giger wasnt direct by Ridley, the facehugger would look like a weird lobster:

I still don't get why there is a human statue in a extra terrestrial environment, were humans created by them or something?
There are about 1000 threads about this topic, just read them.

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.

We'll know more, eventually. The truth could be different.

All I know about the giant head is it suppose to be the pilot of someone's spaceship 8)
"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:
http://movies.sky.com/prometheus-latest-space-jockey-and-giant-head-pilot-confirmed (http://movies.sky.com/prometheus-latest-space-jockey-and-giant-head-pilot-confirmed)
Rumoured to be by an unspecified source, yes. :)

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.
I'm so sick of waiting on this trailer. M
I'm surprise we have a cardboard cut-out soon since I remember we remove our Avengers poster back in October because we thought it was too soon. I had people going up to me and asking "What the hell is this movie?". I was like "It's upcoming science fiction film directed by Ridley Scott and it's takes place in same universe as Alien". They where like "Sounds cool. I will look up more about the movie when I get home".

Well Fox having cardboard cut-out and posters at movie theaters is a good sign so far. It's having more people know more about the film and more hype for the film!

Curious. People in in international countries must have bad eyes, seeing as they've randomly brightened this up.
The way that the eroded/melted eye socket and cheek is accentuated with the tag line is brilliant. I missed this subtlety in the first poster images.
