The Xenomorph is by far THE coolest alien creature in the history of sci-fi. I will be disappointed if there isn't a heavy dose of them in Prometheus.

I doubt we see even one.

Perhaps a chestburster.

I think we will, but I don't think they'll be prevalent. Pretty sure in the very least we're going to see how they came to be.

Some people think there's a xenomorph head in this shot. Right where the arm and hand are.

Would it be such a tragedy if Ridley Scott did something totally unique and awesome that has NOTHING to do with Alien?

I love Alien. I love Aliens. I own them both and view them regularly. That's it. It's fine to let it go. A quick homage would be neat, but I became FAR more interested in this after I figured out it wasn't an Alien prequel. I like Ridley Scott. Safe sucks... I want something new. I'm very intrigued by this.

Um, it has everything to do with Alien. He said the last 1/4 of the film is a direct prequel to Alien. It has the bloody derelict ship FROM ALIEN in the movie...and stuff about the space jockey.

I would agree, except that he clearly showed the space jockey in the very first trailer. If the movie has nothing to do with Alien, then he's guilty of a bait and switch.

If it's awesome, who gives a **** whether it's tied in with alien or not.

This keeps looking better & better, its almost up there with Batman as my must see movie.

Maybe its already been said, and its just a guess, but i think we're going to see that the human race is creating artificial life that will come back to bite us in many of the same ways, as the alien race' artificially produced life ultimately comes back to haunt them them.

Just cant wait, its probably going to be the best, most thought provoking sci-fi in atleast 25 years.

I love fassbender. Probably my favorite actor next to jonny depp

He brought a real, unseen to that point, gravity to the new X-Men.

he's been one of my new Fav actors too. Enjoyed him in X-men.

As for Prometheus? I'm looking forward to it. The leaked trailer looked promising.

Should have just quoted your post and said THIS. :D

A legitimacy.

It reminded me of The Watchmen.

They used unknowns but truly talented actors...
