New EMPIRE Cover

PRAISE BE TO YOU.

UGH. Once again, Lindelof proudly refers to himself as a "fan boy."

Absolutely nothing new but it was a fun read. Thanks.

Oh wait...Lindelof made a great point that if the film doesn't do well then people will blame him...and he's right.

He also made the same point at WonderCon. He was right then, too.

I'm sorry, but that is a horrible pic, the head doesn't even look like its belongs.
"New Alien, New Ripley", huh?  sounds like they're replacing the old one and I don't think that's case, but that's the impression I got.

Digital quality image of the magazine cover. Fassbender has been airbrushed to death...

I like seeing Shaw with the crucifix necklace out like that, nice touch.

By the way, that monster sound is a scream that has been used in so many trailers and films. It's disheartening to hear such an identifiable stock sound used in what may be an incredible and unique film.

Looks like it will be a set visit mixed with some interviews.

There's another magazine interview here too: http://www.totalfilm.com/news/ridley-scott-talks-prometheus-3d

I've just received the new EMPIRE magazine in the post. The cover art is actually fantastic - all the blue is reflective and feels cool! Inside there is a 14 page look at the film, and some new images - I haven't read it yet because I've only just got home and will be heading out to work in 15 minutes (gonna read it on the train) - but there is an interesting shot of Vickers (Charlize Theron) in what appears to be some kind of lobby, or foyer, or office room - I'm gathering that this is possibly Weyland Industries on Earth.

I'm sure somebody will get pictures up online soon, but if not I will scan them when I get home at about 11:00 tonight!

There's a few copies of FILM INK on ebay, I've just bought one. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/FILMINK-April-2012-Volume-9-06-Prometheus-Kate-Winslet-David-Cronenberg-/150777743740?pt=AU_Magazines&hash=item231b0dc97c

"[I've wanted to revisit it for] years! Years, years, years," he stresses, of Alien's space traveller subplot. "I always wondered when they did [Aliens] 2,3 and 4 why they hadn't touched upon that, instead of evolving into some other fantastic story. They missed the biggest question of them all: who's the big guy? And where were they going? And with what? Why that cargo? There's all kinds of questions."

Another question for Scott is the film's rating. He hints that the violence may have been toned-down enough to facilitate a PG-13 rating, but intriguingly suggests that the impact will match the R-grade shocks of Alien and Aliens. "The question is, do you go for the PG-13, [which] financially makes quite a difference, or do you go for what it should be, which is R? Essentially, it's kinda R."

Ridley says in the interview that the next piece of marketing will be like the TED Conference, but will be about David - and he will be talking, and at the end he puts his finger on the screen and there is the W for Weyland in his finger print!

Nice, Thanks for this tidbit!
So are you still intended to scan the pages tonight?

I'm scanning them now in the managers office in work (he's a cool guy), so I'll try and get them up very soon!
