awesome.
Interesting. This TV spot is different from the one they played during AMC's "The Walking Dead" season finale on Sunday night.
Now thats good music!
Ya I started a thread buuuut it didnt get approved lol. Oh well. Looks badass
Cool tv-spot! I especially like the quiet use of Shaw's "I'm so sorry".
Good to see they're actually starting to promote the film now than just a month from release like they've done with some of the past films.
I'm glad the machinery is in full force. Star Trek reboot earned shitload of money and Star Trek is a lot more GEEKY than Alien ever was, so I expect Prometheus to earn even more...

Sites (http://www.alienprequelnews.com/2012/03/first-tv-spot-for-prometheus-aired.html) are claiming that the trailer from above is the one that aired last night tho. Are we certain that it isn't fan-made?
Was it this other one perhaps?

Yes, Ikarop, the one you provided is the exact tv spot / trailer that aired during "The Walking Dead". So, perhaps the trailer provided in the OP is fan-made?
I think that might be the case. Definitely not the one that aired last night.
Did anyone see the TV spot that aired last night on CBS during the NCAA tournament? I know it aired during the Syracuse/Wisconsin game. It was little different from the two videos above.
It had a scene that I haven't seen in any other trailer or spot. Vickers was speaking to someone off-camera, saying something close to this: "If you go down there, you're going to die." I've searched the forum, youtube, the web and haven't seen anyone even acknowledge this TV spot happened. Despite my name, this was no booze-fueled hallucination.

There seems to be a lifeboat detaching itself from Prometheus just before the collison.

Did anyone notice the jockey/engineer/blue guy power walking towards david while he is in the map room with the full holo-projected map still up?
I think that is a good strike against the david= blue space jockey theory

Yep, good eye! So it looks like it is indeed David who is lying face down on the platform as the Jockey chair rises up. Also now gives us scale between human and Engineer--he's at least three or four feet taller than David.

Now we can bet on Holloway being the Engineer. ;D
Looks like our big blue friend didn't come out of one of the sarcophagi. Where'd he come from, then? Hmmm!
Yep, that's the one I saw. Thanks to Cory for posting it.
Hadn't noticed this before that there appears to be what can only be described as a more primitive, hydraulic, power loader arm attached to that vehicle. 8)
Even if it ends up being the landing gear, it still seems like a nod to the power loader design.

Don't make me throw my shoe at you lol...! :D
The engineer cryo tube we've speculated about being open, would be located just to the approaching engineers left I guess, so he
could have emerged from that. Love that we know have a decent size reference and we can also bury the 'blue guy is just a mutated human' theory (but I'm naive and that discussion have a life of its own now :laugh: )
Epic showdown - Mr Blue vs Mr Blonde ;)
QuoteLooks like our big blue friend didn't come out of one of the sarcophagi. Where'd he come from, then? Hmmm!
It's going to be hard to wait ! :)
It's good to have a complete picture of him in proportion with a member of the crew of Prometheus !
How do you think this scene will turn out in the movie ? What will David's reaction be [it seems we already know how the humans thanks to 1/4 of second in the trailer, but the android ? it'll be interesting] ? And the Blue Guy's reaction ? (Get out of my property ! ;D)

The Jockey is HUGE compared to David. He's also bigger than the creature that attacks Shaw at the end of the second trailer (the scene where she falls back in the hallway of the ship and we see a set of biomechanical looking legs approaching). Hmmm... curious.
@ 0:22 looks like the escape pod is more ship than pod to me.
is this the "magellan"?
If you watch the motion and the blurring I think that the big blue guy might be a hologram like the rest of the star map in that scene, David might have activated a sort of playback of the engineer taking his position. ??

I would never have noticed that, good job!
QuoteHmmm... curious.
All seems to indicate we will deal with several kinds of creatures in this movie :) (and it's good).
Ulfer: It seems like David turns, and he and the jockey look at each other. David makes no attempt to run or back up (at least in this brief clip). I'm assuming the jockey is not part of the hologram. Either (a) David's curiosity outweighs any fear, (b) he's not programmed with fear, (c) the jockey has the power to "freeze" people in place (see others' theories on why Ford doesn't move when faced with the jockey), or... (d) David and the jockey are in cahoots in some way; i.e., David has submitted to the jockey's mysterious plans for him, and so there's no need to react. This could go hand in hand with the Pinocchio theory: David wants to become more human/organic, the Jockey "grants his wish", and he winds up becoming more organic but alien as well.
I'd go with (a). Of course, 0.3 seconds later in the scene could show David running out of there leaving a cloud of dust.
IMO there are three Jockeys and possibly a forth (sitting in the control chair). Watch that part carefully. There is one Jockey on the right side of the bubble david is in, and another jockey comes into view as you look through the bubble on the opposite side.
The Jockey on the right side of the bubble is virtually stationary and tough to see with the map going. He's right up against the bubble.
The one in the chair I can't confirm. It might just be that glowing green ball that we see in the chair rising scene, but It looks like something is there.

or maybe the Jockey doesn't even know how to react because he doesn't recognize David as a living being.
kind of like "WTF are you doing in my Hologram room? Oh wait, that thing is just a machine..."

Yeah, I didn't consider the Jockey's reaction. "Make yourself at home. Would you like some milk?"
I do think it's clear that the interaction between David and the alien life they discover (including Jockey) will play a pivotal role in the film.

I can see the one on the left and the one behind him but i cant see one of the right at all ???
I think we can infer that the Engineer knocks David out. Remember, as the Engineer is raising the Chair, there is a Prometheus crewmember facedown on the platform. It's David, I wager.
I am starting to warm up to the idea that Vickers might be an android again. She's totally deadpanning it.

I am beyond impressed with everything I am seeing so far. I think this film is going to be genuinely scary, shocking, and mind expanding. The only thing that bugs me is that I SO wanted the SJ's to NOT look at all like us. I hope that the big reveal will be in the film itself and they have not given too much away in the trailers. I am holding out hope that the saucer ship shown in the American trailer are the "real architects" and we haven't seen them yet. No one has an answer for the "saucer" yet.

Me too. I even begin to wonder if this film is not going to break the little sanity I've got left ;D. Kidding, of course, but I think my nightmares are going to come back... and "this scene" (the one Scott talked about) is surely not going to help.
QuoteI hope that the big reveal will be in the film itself and they have not given too much away in the trailers
I'm quite confident that they will manage to keep the good parts hidden tilll the movie is released.
Incidentally, I've just watched (by obligation, it was an advertisement) the trailer for a movie. 1min30 of trailer, the whole story (maybe even the end) is given, nearly fully. At least with
Prometheus, it raises more questions each time.

In the bubble, immediately above the head of the foreground chair. It's either a third 'Jockey' or a reflection of the one stomping forward if the bubble is reflective.

Hell, I only see one. I think the alleged others are just a trick of the eyes mistaking aspects of the holo-orrery.
There's 3 Engineers...
and David, whose yellow helmet light is the only way I can define him from the others
Well, there's only one moving in the trailer. I am going to take the 'three Engineers' theory with a grain of salt for the time being. For sure, there's one. Maybe two. But it's tough to tell at this point.
I too think the tall guys are part of the hologram. The one on the right looks like he's touching the sphere, and the one in the background, doing nothing.
If you watch it in 720p on youtube in motion it feels like the one in back is just part of the hologram and not an engineer. It also looks like the one on the right is likely just a stationary planet in the hologram that resembles a head. As much as I'd like for there to be multiple engineers I don't think we're seeing more than one here.

The tone of these "TV spots" are turning me off. They are meant to sell the movie to the average out of the loop person. I much prefer the trailer, it's more fan service. I don't need overly explanatory narration to get me interested, Just the name "Ridley Scott & that alarm will do.
Indeed. That phony "Heads up!!1!" overdub when Idris Elba shouts, with the cheesy canned "metal" track, is hilarious.
Unfortunately guys, there's a dumb audience outside of our world that make up the majority. Most probably have never heard of Ridley Scott, and there are many kids to whom Alien means nothing prior to AVP. It's a film in the end - not made for us, but for everyone. It's a $100m budget movie that needs to make a profit. That means metal music, dubstep, sexy pics and cgi action. Doesn't mean the final film will be anything like it, but as it stands, the TV spots still look a million times better than any other movie advertising at the moment.
Christ, have you seen the Spidey virals? Prometheus fans are being spoilt!
They're planets, guys, not Engineers. the one supposedly on the right of David? Yeah, no body. It's just a planet with a moon orbitting it.
Same for the one in the middle. It's just a planet.
The guy on the left that we actually see walking, that's a Jockey/Engineer.

Magnifying would be useless--you'd just get extra blocky pixels that would reveal nothing. This issue will only be put to rest once we get a decent 1080 version. Then we'll be able to tell for sure whether they're Jockeys or planets.
The other two just look like projections interfacing with the map. Wouldn't be surprised if David finds out they were heading to Earth by seeing one doing something to imply so on the map.
Also, we know that holographic beings can be formed by this Engineer technology because we've seen it before in the second trailer.
Again, highly doubt those other two have a physical presence.

That's what I thought too, until I looked at the gif of the scene. The second (center) one seems to actually move into the light in a walking motion.
Thankyou for your pic OpenMaw. At least I appreciate what you've tried to do to get through to some very awkward posters on here.
But shall I tell you why I think there are 3 engineers? Because of the FRAMING OF THE SHOT.
If it was 2 + David, the pic would be cropped so David would be closer to (our) right frame edge. You wouldn't have a shot with action happening on one side, David in the middle and nothing on the other. It's all about BALANCE in the shot! Basic camera law.
ALSO, 4 SARCOPHAGI - my logic is, 3 Engineers awaken from these, the 4th sarcophagus is reserved possibly for David in his new role?

While I certainly appreciate the complement, I don't think anyone here is being particularly more thick headed than anyone else is. We all have our theories and many of us want to be right. That can often get in the way of the truth.
Not necessarily. By that logic the pullback in Alien to reveal the Jockey in the chair should have been centered to the left and not have the major set piece center frame at the end of the shot.
Or, more to the point, the shot is framing
the set as well as
the action. That "guy" on the right has no body. Which inhibits his ability to exist. No, I think that's absolutely Earth with her moon in tow. :) Let's also keep in mind that every time we've seen a shot of the Orrey in a wide angle it's been from a similar framing. It's just the way they chose to frame the set itself to give the best sense of scale.
There is absolutely no evidence to support the idea that David is ever turned into a Jockey, or turns evil, or used by The Jockeys. None, anywhere.
Also ,the only "evidence" we've ever had for even two Jockey's was the IMDB credits listing an "Engineer" and an "Elder Engineer." That's IMDB though, it could just as easily say "Troll Face" and "Sad Panda."
Love the voice over on tv spot 2.

But surely you'd take the shot from behind the first jockey with David central. You wouldn't leave the imbalance of 2 jocks, David and a whole load of nothing behind him.
What the heck, it's only speculation. I'm just looking forward to the movie.

That's assuming there's even two though. David's standing in the middle of the room, and from the previous shots from the other trailers, it shows him in 'awe' from the orrery. I think the purpose of the shot that Ridley has set up here, is to show the grand scale of it –
why David is in awe from it. Then, we'll get much closer and tighter shots, once the Jockey comes within reach of David.

Well, that's a subjective observation in the end. There's no 'imbalance' in that wide shot to me. Cinematography can't be reduced to making sure you frame the action and disregard the space
around the action.
An example:
Action classic Die Hard just finished in the tv and it has several shots/image compositions with a character positioned at the far left or right of the image - and nothing but space. Watching Bruce Willis standing all alone with all that empty office space around him, just
enhances the sense of isolation his character must feel - a composition that would be entirely lost in a (dreadful) cropped 4:3 version.
Just my $0.02 you know... :)
PS: I still only see 1 engineer but I'll grant that the speculated engineer in the middle looks somewhat plausable (because of what could be interpreted as motion), if it isn't a reflection of some sort. The 'engineer' to the right looks like part of the map to me. Imo the scene would have the greatest impact if there's only 1, but that doesn't say much about what is actually going on...

Plus the first thing you learn about framing shots at film school is the rule of thirds - it's not necessarily better just to whack the subject centre frame.
With respect to everyone posting so far, I have to agree with Eva here - there's any number of reasons to frame the shot that don't involve multiple Jockeys.
Also, am I the only one who'll still be kinda disappointed if Jockeys = big people? I'm still hoping this is another race, and the Jockeys are a perhaps long-dead species who were much larger and much stranger. The best chance for that theory yet is the shot in the full trailer with the two people coming down the SJ corridor, where you can glimpse - IMO - fairly clearly large dead Jockey bodies in the foreground, most obviously the giant arms.

It's the lifepod Vickers uses to escape when the Prometheus is on colision course with the engineer's ship...
Wow, the multiple temples, the pillars made out of urns, the engineers appearing when David uses the orrery...
BTW they are way more big than what the ships corridors implied...
I'm kinda lost now ^^
It could be that these engineers are rendered through the hologram, like we see the running figure appear in blue particles in the IMAX trailer. An artificial version of them rather than a physical presence.

So are those definitely our space jockeys then or is it possible that we still haven't seen the real jockeys? Maybe I shouldn't doubt Ridley but I just don't like the idea of them looking too human-like. It kills the mystery of the space jockey for me. Still, the giant dudes do seem really creepy.

It's looking very likely these are indeed our jockeys. I'd wait til we actually see them up close in action before we say they kill any mystery. If handled right, it could be amazing, especially if their motives are incredibly sinister.

There obviously must have been more than one SJ to build those pillars out of thounds of little metallic ampules! Can't imagine how bored the one should be to do all this, but if you are stranded on the planet with nothing else to occupy yourself ... Oh, wait, on the other hand, this meticulously performed sculptural artwork might imply Jockeys have much more developed mental skills, like telekinesis and telepathy, and in this case, it would be enough one Jockey to drive loony all
Prometheus' crew.
By the way, the Prometheus rams the floating Derelict straight into 3 ovoid entrances, but in the next sequence we see explosure occur on the Derelict's limb, not on the central part under the pilot bridge. Does alien ship have more than one trio of opening over its hull?

I think the explosion is Prometheus totally disintegrating, while the engineer ship mostly gets pushed downwards by the shockwave. It looks like it
has caught on fire though where the impact occured, just over the entrances:

I think the explosion is Prometheus totally disintegrating, while the engineer ship mostly gets pushed downwards by the shockwave. It looks like it has caught on fire though where the impact occured, just over the entrances:

On
Eva's picture you can clearly espy the column of dark smog rising up from the central part of the Derelict, which points out the true spot of impact. That impact literally nailed the Derelict down to the ground, and on these pics it's already falling.

Ridley said he'd covered his back by shooting different versions for consideration upon rating. Hopefully, rather than the blood having been digitally removed, this is just the softer version being used because it's a TV spot.
Her blood is also colored completely different in the trailers: red in the UK trailer, green in the US.
If we get a PG-13 cut while the rest of the world gets an uncut version, I will be pissed. >:(

The rating thing is always a huge hot button. The only thing I like to say to fans of Alien is that hey... remember how Requiem had a shitload of blood and gore and the consequential R-rating didn't make that movie ANY better than its predecessor... in my opinion anyway. So if Prometheus IS PG-13, it's not going to hurt the artistic vision of the film. Hell, by today's standards, the blood and gore in Aliens is pretty PG-13 IMHO, and there's actually relatively very little gore in the original Alien.

When I pay $15 bucks to see a movie at the cinema in 3D, I want to be seeing the
actual film, not some studio compromised shadow of it. Knowing I won't see the actual film until I buy the Blu-ray months and months down the line is pretty goddamn annoying.
Also, the violence in both ALIEN and ALIENS is still hard-R stuff. There's just
not much of it--a fact that people forget when they say "Alien and Aliens could be rated PG-13 today!"

Urgh, its shame that some directors cut down or edit a movie to fit a rating or appeal to a wider audience, leaving us only to wait for the Blu-ray/DVD to see the director's intended vision. For me, one of the biggest eye openers was Len Wiseman's
Live Free or Die Hard PG-13 cut compared to his R cut. The R cut looked and
felt like a
Die Hard film firing (no pun intended) on all cylinders. And, it's annoying that the R rated cut hasn't been released on Blu-ray yet.

The studio feeds on us idiot fanboys (and girls). They know most of can't wait until home video release so they give us bits and pieces of the movie until theres nothing left to milk or we lost interest and they arent making money anymore.

Really? Every instance of McClane yelling "F*cker" in LFODH was dubbed in, almost all the blood was CGI, and added in to the PG13 film. It didn't really fix the films major problems at all. The directors version was really an afterthought.
Which is very very different from what Scott says he's done with Prometheus. Reshooting the same scenes with different elements in them is actually quite good.
And i'm okay with toning down the gore as long as the story and tension of the film are not harmed in doing so. A little blood can do wonders for a horror film. A lot? Not really. Except drown it. :D

Not when compared to what PG-13 movies get away with today. Requiem's gore is a LOT more gratuitous and gross than the stuff in Alien and Aliens. The violence/gore is actually pretty minimalist. Given that, the deaths of the Aliens don't count. Like the guys at rifftrax said, you can kill Robots(Or aliens) all day and still get a PG rating, just as long as the blood isn't red.
The two chest bursters are pretty much the only things that would have a hard time getting under the R-bar.
It's mostly the language in Aliens that would set it over the top. :)

Bullshrim. The chestburster scene alone is VERY hard R, as well as the shots of the Alien puncturing peoples skull and
brains. The chestburster in ALIENS is pretty nasty, too. Also, both films feature their own healthy share of F-bombs. The limit for a PG-13 is
one utterance.

Didn't Twilight breaking dawn feature a scene where Edward had to chew a baby out of Bella's womb? That's pretty damn hardcore and that's PG-13... PLUS I've seen several PG-13 movies get away with at least 3-4 uses of the F bomb... Back to School comes to mind, as does a few other films. Plus, when it comes to the chestburster, isn't that basically the equivalent of being impaled through the back, at the risk of oversimplifying? And we've seen that kind of thing a LOT of times in PG-13 films.
If you all seriously believe ALIEN is PG-13 rated fare, than why wasn't ALIEN: The Director's Cut rated PG-13 when it was released back into theaters nine years ago? It wasn't because there is no way in hell ALIEN will ever get a PG-13. You're kidding yourselves.
The chestburster scene alone in Alien would deem it an R.
I do think it is the only major thing that would keep it from going under R, though. The other gruesome bits are very very brief and flash the screen very rapidly.

Oh, no doubt. But the chestburster scene is such a bloody affair, even if hypothetically that was the only blood soaked scene in the movie; I think they'd still file it under an R. The scene is so shocking and when the alien pops its head out of Kane's chest as he's still twitching – makes my skin crawl every-f**king-time.
They show the chestburster scene on regular (non-premium networks) with only three quick edits. (The initial blood explosion on the shirt and the gross sounding first full push through of the alien head ... where it goes 'pllopp' and the first part of where it rises from the gushing chest wound)

I didn't say it was, for one thing there's like 5 or 6 instances of the F-bomb in Alien plus the only real gory moment in the film is the chest-bursting scene and the rest of the violence is VERY minimal. I think the point is that those who say Alien might be rated PG-13 today might be wrong... but we see decapitations, headshots and stuff that's just as gory in stuff that's on public Television.
for that matter the original Texas chainsaw massacre had little blood but im not share about the swearing, I dont think there was anything that would have made it R except for the tone.
Sorcerer was rated PG and it had a couple of scenes of brutality, and it was as bleak as f**k. However, there were no profanations at all if I'm not mistaken and maybe that's why?

Apart from the Control Panel being revealed thers are those two angled plates (in the red boxes) which I presume are the holographic emitters. They also happen to be where the left side and rear side jockeys appear.

I'm sure David inspects the canisters before they bring the alien head back to the ship.
And i think that David gets "infected" after sleeping with Elizabeth Shaw
I believe all the elizabeth stuff crawling/struggling through the halls is after the operation. and the operation is before all hell breaks look with the crew members being attacked

That would explain why Weyland would be in a space suit. Might also explain why they are all in the loading/docking bay.
I'm thoroughly confused by the order of things we've been shown in the trailers. And I'm halfheartedly struggling to piece them together. I want to preserve some semblance of awe as things unfold on screen.

I agree. It reminds me of the part of Alien's head when Ash tells Parker, Lambert, and Ripley that they were doomed to the alien. Totally spoiled the rest of the movie.
Just because she says they will, doesn't mean that they will. :)
Third (new) Prometheus TV spot just played on Adult Swim. Some interesting new footage, including some sort to geyser as well a quick cut at the end with Shaw struggling with what I'm assuming is one of the Engineers.

A geyser? I wonder if it's this? I speculated ages ago that it might be.

He darked the scenes and cut some frames to black in the US trailer so it's actually harder to get a clearer picture with the HD trailers. However if I had to guess the space Jockey(blue guy) is himself a suit for this eel like thing to swim in.

I think there is no one there.
You think wrong. :P
No.

More seriously, i don't believe anyone there because of the size of DAVID when he's activating the console.
Doubt a character could hide that much...
Well it's not that important :)
What might make more sense is that if this jockey is a mutated crew member, the blue we're seeing is a discarded space suit after mutation has completed. It doesn't seem big enough to be identified as a body at the moment.

imo I can see mohawk reaching for the exact same eel like creature in this shot. Just before it tears his suit and gains access. As is seen in the shorter trailer where a slimy eel is crawling inside his suit just before his hand covers the tear.
btw, I think that is david who is lying behind the cryo-chamber as the jockey's telescope is being raised. Seems clear as day at least that a company suit is there. Likely David is knocked aside by the blue creature.
Not seeing it... :-\

Which shot of the telescope being raised, the wide-shot or the closer in one with the green globe on the floor? Either way I can't see a body but I've heard other people refer to this - can you post a pic to clarify? Prob just being blind...
EDIT: sorry, just seen this earlier in the thread. Why do you think it's David out of interest?
By the way, the guy throwing his head back and screaming with black veins growing up his neck - who do people think that is? I'm thinking mohawk dude.
There is no eel in that shot. It's a rock, partially buried. And the shot of the eel seems to get into what maybe Weylands suit as his I the only one we know of with an outer skeleton. You're reaching,

I think it's David from this scene in the 2nd TV trailer. There are many scenes of David in the orrery and this trailer shows the blue creature walking up to him. There seems to be no one else around but the two of them. This is why my guess is that it is david on the ground behind the cryo-tube. Also as david is squatting just before he activate the orrery you'll notice that all of the cyrotubes are still closed.
Also,ThisBethesdaSea if you watch the scene in the 1080 trailer he is reaching for something that is clearly moving imo.
edit: I'm too tired to post more pics :P but the arm of the suit that the thing crawls into looks the same as mohawks suit as he releases the red scanning orbs.

This looks like someone in a blue suit to me. It must be David, considering the footage we've seen from this room until now:
(https://www.avpgalaxy.net/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Foi43.tinypic.com%2F5yhzqb.jpg&hash=b5e43ae3f63a6624ca10b18307176ff228ae471e)
The screaming guy - you can make out the last letters of his forhead name tag if you pause the HD trailer at the right moment and it reads '...way', so I'm assuming it's Holloway.
Could it be possible that both Mohawk and Holloway get attacked by completely different creatures? One being a wormy thing and the other being the veiny one? To which they then try to kill each other? I think the crew protect Holloway because he appears more human? The whole choose sides deal. I don't know, just a guess...

Yeah I guess the David thing fits with what we've seen.
I thought I'd picked up from other threads that it was Holloway but I couldn't remember why people thought that and I wouldn't have picked Marshall-Green just from the look of the character. Well spotted with the tag, I can't see it for the life of me!
Whiterabbit: the other thing about the veiny thing is obviously it's very like the "King" at the beginning. Not really sure what that means in terms of your point (which is definitely possible) but I haven't seen it much discussed around here yet.

PS: without the nametag, I couldn't tell myself who it is supposed to be. Same with the recently released still with the guy walking towards the Prometheus with his arms raised. His tag looks like it reads 'Holloway', but I can't quite match the face with that character. Clean-shaven vs Holloway's stubble etc... But what do I know, right...? :D

Thanks very much! :)
Actually that explains a lot as I was trying to spot it in the more recent full trailer, and I'm pretty sure it isn't visible there. Also I'd forgotten that in the original teaser it's more obvious he has what looks like acid damage to one side of his face, although it could just be part of the same deal that's mutating his body I guess.
This is getting weirder though. I agree your pic looks relatively clean-shaven; but the more recent one definitely DOES have stubble. Not sure if this is all to do with CGI work that's still in progress or something.
I have uploaded a TV spot that aired during Cartoon Network's Adult Swim last Saturday. I hadn't seen it anywhere else so I called it TV Spot #3.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S-bijHyvlr4# (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S-bijHyvlr4#)
New scenes include sunrise over the pyramid structure, scanners mapping the ampule room, and the alien spaceship lifting out of the ground facing the Prometheus.

These TV spots are terrible. The crappy stock music, the hideous, obvious overdubbing--just, ugh.

Few new shots. I wanna see the end with her yelling to figure out what the shoulder is. And it looks like a good shot of the mountain as well.
Just really bad quality. Hopefully a better res one will be uploaded in the morning.
And weirdly dressed white hoodie guy is still wearing his hoodie whilst the ship is landing. I was thinking it was just for the briefing scene.
"How do I get out of this chicken shit outfit?"
Who's is that standing in front of what looks like a burst of steam of some sort...? This looks like part of the graound opening up for the Derelict to rise up...
I really want a better shot of the "temple"/mountain and the shaw one at the end to figure out what she is yelling at. Looks like the jockey that is stalking her in the hallway scene. But again, shit res.

Dubbing? Are they f**kin' serious?....Anybody in the UK willing to put up with me for a day at the end of may? :laugh: That rhymed.
The dubbing is for the trailers only. They would not do that in the final movie.

DEFINITELY much clearer than mine! Thanks! You wouldnt be able to upload the raw file for us, would you? :laugh:
The raw file isn't really any different than the edited one I put on YouTube. It's just as dark. For the screen caps, I slightly tweaked the levels in Photoshop: not drastically, but enough to bring out details from the shadows. The raw video file does not look like the screen caps.
I see. At any rate, thanks for uploading it in the first place!
No problem. I'm always on the lookout for new spots, so if I find another one this will be the first place to know about it.

They're awesome, thanks for those!
Does anyone know yet what the weird structure on the very tops of the temples are? I know they share more than a passing resemblence with Giger's unused Dune artworks, but what are they here? The shot of the temple here makes it look almost like a certain familiar elongated head/skull type shape...

Sounds like they used Noomi Rapace's actual scream this time, rather than on the full trailer where it sounded an awful lot like they just reused Sigourney Weaver's from Alien...
not much new stuff...i think its a good thing
but for sure...David 8 fights or whatever with Vickers in the hallway
/ just give a vibrator to Elizabeth Shaw and she will deal with all the aliens in it/
I have got a feeling that David 8 is juste a scinetific droid and Vickers is responsible for the crew but not many people or no one knows about that she is a droid...and maybe David 8 will have malfunctions ;D
Because some of us here are actually gay....the derogatory use of the word 'fag' isnt appreciated. Thanks,

Nice observation! Probably not a coincidence. I also saw an echo of the alien's skull in the viral image of the Orrery, that one was most likely coincidental though. And obviously there's the xeno-type-thing on the wall.
Alien DNA?...
Ok, I can't be the only one to have thought "Pred!" when first seeing the steam vent figure :o

Exactly. Let's be a little a more tactful and respectful please.
I guess the vent, as it seems to be outside, is either the hatch openning for the ship or perhaps it's connected to something else such as a climate change mechanism? Alien features a few shots of small vents spouting on the surface so perhaps a connection to changed atmosphere? Or maybe I'm reaching. :)
Also, why are so many shots swapped in these trailers? This has the same shuttle flyby shot but swapped in orientation. Previous trailers have featured a number of swapped shots are well.
I know it's not uncommon for directors to swap shots if they feel it works when viewed against the larger assembly but I'm surprised to see it in trailers released so closely together.
Very curious as to why David / Vickers square off. Reminds me a touch - just in tone - of the two Terminators squaring off in the halllway in Terminator 2. Given the similar look they share really wondering if that scene reveals Vickers is an Android too - and more than capable of handling the strengh of another Android.
Love the sunrise shot over the Temple and look forward to hi-res version of that.

That would explain her strength, to be able to chuck him against the wall :D Although, he seems almost amused with her during the attack....
in which direction is the derelict flying? with the two limbs on the front or on the back?
??? Good question. I always assumed it flew limbs foward. It would look kinda funny the other way.
y i thought that too, bit i don't think that the derelict would fly torwards prometheus... they are chasing it and prommy is colliding with it form the limb side.... conclusion: i think the derelict flies with limbs backward..
I don't think they are chasing it, I think they are going head first into each other. Look at the other cap which appears to be the prometheus staring down the derelict from a distance. It flying the other way would look just stupid. Hell, it flying anyway but arms forward is eye rolling silly. I guess that belongs in the grips thread. Also, every shot has it arms forward. So I am assuming it is arm forward. You don't shoot a f-14 from behind in every money shot featuring them. Head first or from the side collision.
I still think the mountain is gonna be a cross of that and the ridleygram skull entrance.

they just put up an 1080p version of the imax trailer on another fanwebsite
noticed some things
at 14secs in - there is not 1 but 5 of the big pyramids in a row
at 46secs in - its holloway with mutating face that says hello in a creepy way
Interesting... when Noomi says: "We have to stop it" sounds a bit more distorted in this spot... so much so that it sounds like "We have to stop him(!)"
As if they wanted to let it open...
In Alien director's cut there is a scene where Ripley tries to decipher the S.O.S and she realizes that it is not an S.O.S but a Warning to stay away..
Who activates the beacon???

That's also in the theatrical cut. The message is emanated from the Jockey.
and i guess that beacon just stopped sending out its signal by the time colonists were on LV-426?

In the original script and storyboards, the Nostromo crew find the signal beacon and deactivate it. Obviously, that's not in the film. By the time of Aliens, the derelict has been moved from its perch and has been broken in two (reflecting the damage caused to the actual model, which returns from Alien). The beacon would've been damaged in this turbulence.
i really REALLY hope all this music from the trailers/tv spots will be on the soundtrack. this last one is amazing

your absolutely right with that. composers are audiomachine.
"judge and jury" is on the "deus ex-machina" album and "knights and lords" on "epica.

Ridley shoulda got Tangerine Dream to do the soundtrack! ;)
(I know its not) but at 0:20 in TV spot 3 it looks like a Predator pops up and does his "I'm a badass" pose.

Keep in mind that Ripley was also able to throw Ash up against the wall (in the Mother/computer room) and hold him up against it by his collar/shirt. Of course, Ash was not prepared for this reaction, and was taken off-guard. A similar thing may occur here. All I am saying is that this scene in no way "proves" that Vickers is also an android, at this point.

This image, to me, is simply epic!!! And despite the low resolution, may be the greatest still shot I have seen so far. I love the composition, and the unique camera angle.
You just know that the "shit is about to get real"...to use a colloquialism
(https://www.avpgalaxy.net/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi1170.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fr526%2FHappTheManFan%2FPrometheus-Liftoff.jpg&hash=d1057c17053948f7f3dbc614de349e3a645f84e0)
Makes me wonder if the Jockey ship will make any kind of noise as it rises into the air.
Like if they'll go the route of District 9 and have the thing vibrant the Hell out of the landscape, or if it will simply very silently rise into the sky.
Either way that shot is fantastic.

You are absolutely correct! Thanks for jogging my memory. I personally don't believe she is, considering there has been hints that "no one can be that cold" to her personality. Plus, naked pushups? Androids don't need to keep muscles fit ;)

not their muscles, but their circuits! ;)
remembering ash?
i don't hope that vickers is an android, coz one is being enough. but i'm open for everything.
Footage from Wondercon panel if you look at: 0:41 you get your first quick glimpse at the alien.
Also at:1:02 you can see what looks like either the same alien or possibly a facehugger..

I agree on the number O bots point. Sorry about the lack of elaboration, I meant remembering her manhandling him.

Yep. Thats the full trailer that was released just after the ridley interview at the amc Q and A a few weeks ago. Its been discussed in the thread for it here
http://www.avpgalaxy.net/forum/index.php?topic=42492.810 (http://www.avpgalaxy.net/forum/index.php?topic=42492.810)
Can anybody remember how long we waited for the first still to make its way online in high quality after it debuted in a magazine? Hopefully they'll release these images too.

Nice. I've just downloaded that album from MP3 Panda and there's some good stuff on it. Now, does anyone know the piece of music that comes in as the UK trailer turns dark?
Audio machine's knights and lords?
Surely this has to be an R-rating ?
Go on Fox, I dare you :)
Was there ever an HD version of TV spot #3 released?

Max Richter is pretty solid. Back when I made my first film he/ his people allowed me to use his music for free.
