Trailer for Ridley Scott's Alien prequel leaked

[Hammock Parties]

Terrible footage but here is a good description:

• The trailer starts with the 20th Century FOX logo. You hear a transmission. A woman (which I assume to be Rapace) is saying "...got to stop... was wrong.. so wrong...I'm so sorry...". You can hear the last part very clearly.
• The first scene shows a spaceship (similar to the one seen in the first leaked trailer) flying towards a planet on the background.
• Next you see is the surface of a planet and some sort of facility. It kinda looks like a Lunar base to me.
• Now they show this scene from the Comic-con footage.
• You can see the film's title forming in the background during most of the trailer. Pretty much like in the introductory scene of Alien.
• Next is the Ampule room. They show it off from all different angles and finally a close up of the ampules. Suddenly you hear a high pitch scream. It's not human. It sounds like if it was from a facehugger. Then there's a lot of smoke from what seems to be acid corrosion. They show a guy in a spacesuit. He's alone. Screaming and putting his hands over his helmet. It looks just like the Kane/derelict scene in Alien.
• Now they show the same spaceship from earlier. Same shot as in the first leaked trailer. Flying towards what seems to be a different planet in the background.
• The next 2 scenes are from the comic-con footage. 1, 2.
• Now they show Vickers running across a hallway. Same scene as in the first leaked trailer.
• Next seems to me someone in a spacesuit. Driving a futuristic vehicle in some desert like surface. Heading towards some structure or facility in the middle of nowhere at full speed.
• Impressive shot of the Iceland waterfalls.
• Next is this scene from the comic-con footage. They seem to be shooting at something or someone but they don't show it.
• Next you see is some grey-black serpent like creature. Jumping ala facehugger from some sort of grey-goo cavity. Now they show the whole scene. There's two guys in their spacesuits. One lying on the ground (it seems to be the impregnated guy from earlier) and another one checking on him. The creature jumps from what seems to be the insides of the previous impregnated guy to the other one.
• Now they show someone with a expression of pain. The guy is still in his spacesuit and someone appears to be holding him in their arms.
• Now you can see a device or hologram of some sort. It looks like an atom or a planet. I'm not sure if it's a planet or just some molecular structure tbh. The center of the hologram is a single sphere so it should be a planet system. Probably the coordinates to some other world.
• Now this shot from comic-con.
• Next is a spaceship being destroyed while in the air.
• One guy in a spacesuit pouncing at someone else while holding something. It looks like it's going to hurt.
• Next is the space jockey room. Same as in the Comic-con footage. The center piece of the plate opens and the space jockey chair rotates out of the ground.
• Next scene shows off a very inflated belly. Like if the person was pregnant but there's something bigger than a chestbuster moving inside. Seems to be Rapace's.
• Idris Elba yells while aboard of what seems to be the Prometheus.
• The sandstorm + Rapace spacesuit scene. Same as in the first leaked trailer. Close up of Rapace. She gets hit by the storm and she falls down a pit. It's the scene depicted in the official still released around comic-con.
• Now you can clearly read Prometheus. The whole title has formed in the background. They show it for a few seconds.
• Now a close up of Rapace's face. She's in pain. It seems to be the same scene as in the first leaked trailer. The one with the green lasers scanning her belly.
• Now they show someone in a spacesuit looking at the derelict in the surface of a planet with clear skies.
• The words "They went looking"
• The derelict again. It's vertical to the ground. It would be impossible to enter it from the same place as in Alien.
• The words "for earth's beginning"
• Still on the same planet. The derelict (or something really big) seems to be falling down from above. The guy in the spacesuit is running away now. Trying not to get crushed.
• The words "what they found"
• They now show two guys running away.
• The words "could be its the end"
• They show the same guys again. Running away from what appears to be a huge gigerish structure (it feels like it's moving but it's hard to tell). Perhaps the derelict in flight. There's a lot of smoke. What appears to be debris on fire are falling from above. They keep running away from it.
• The trailer ends.
• The music reminded me a lot of the one from Inception (the 'horns sounds'). But mixed with what appears to be the music from the original trailer for Alien. Same music during all the trailer.

Not seeing this in the theater would be a bad move.

It's visually orgasmic.

When we first sat down, I thought we might be too close to the screen. Turns out it was nearly perfect. The scene with David and the star map ... I felt like I was surrounded by it. When it was over I turned to my son and whispered, "Now THAT was impressive."

One of the very, very few IMAX 3D movies worth the money.

I saw it in Regals RPX format. It's basically an IMAX competitor. Awesome, just awesome.



On a side note, while RPX isn't as big as REAL IMAX, it's more like LieMax size, but I think I prefer it better. REAL IMAX is too big, especially if you have to sit close.

I'm not sure if this was a good movie or not, but I don't think I've ever seen a movie generate the kind of discussion across the net that this one has. Well played, Mr. Scott.

Inception was probably the last big one like this.

This and Avatar are the only two I can think of, although I don't think the 3D in this really compares to the 3D in that. Definitely the two most visually-stunning films I can think of, in any case.

Still glad I didn't shell out the extra $$$ for The Avengers. That movie was perfectly fine in 2D.

I really want to go see it again, and I NEVER see the same movie twice in the theater

Well, that's the rub. I always recommend people sit in the middle- to upper-half of our theater. I can't watch a film below, say, the 8th row from the top. I have no idea how people sit in the 2nd row. But, yeah, screen size can be kind of misleading; I mean, if you go to a smaller theater, and sit in the 2nd row so the screen fills your field of vision, I'm not really sure how that's physically different from sitting in the middle row of a giant-screen theater.

I like what my friend said after we saw it. "It was like Avatar, but good." We had a fun discussion after it was over, and that's one thing I ask of a film like this.

Awesome. And true.

yea for sure.....ive been stuck in the first few rows for a couple if IMAX movies and it wasnt a pleasant experience to be honest. Its hard to focus on everything because the screen is so large.

Looks like there was another engineer.

See in the real IMAX theatres like Navy Pier has, if the movie is good 3D I find the best spot to watch is just close enough to not see the edges of the screen in your normal field of vision - makes the 3D experience much more immersive I've found. Otherwise I'd sit a bit further back for normal 2D.

BTW, why doesn't the IMAX at the KC Zoo, which is a real IMAX sized screen get the cool blockbuster films- such a waste and I'd gladly drive further and pay a bit more for that if they had it offered! !

The engineers must have had some nice roids on their planet. Those were some seriously buff dudes.
