What is the worst that could have happened?

Having said that I do like the first Three Alien films for different reasons.

The alien is no longer scary and you see them in Disneyland or wherever.

Though to be fair it is possible to redeem stuff, such as the Daleks which got a very nice and much needed rejuvenation in 'Dalek'... of course they did go onto to run them back into the ground, but you know hopefully the point carries, it could be done.

This film looks great, but I do think it would be better served being either an honest to goodness prequel, or leaving well alone. This kinda nodding the head to the previous movies, that seems to be happening, just feels like Scott's afraid to commit. Come on fella either go for it or leave old girl alone for good!

Wouldn't you rather see a film with aliens based on something other than Gigers Necronom IV? I know I would. Part of the reason Alien worked so well was not only because on first viewing noone had any idea of what IT was going to do to the crew of the ship, but the creature itself was also unusual and completely unfamiliar.

The inferior sequels only lessened the impact of the creature  and  had Ridley Scott made the first sequel,  as he has said in the past, the Alien would definitely have not looked the same. Plus there are many disturbing images that Giger has made in the past that are ripe to base a new alien shape on. The Xenomorph at this point is about as scary (outside of the original Alien) as Freddy krueger i.e: not very.

So However the new film turns out it'll be interesting to see how well they can take the series into a new direction.

I'm calling this now: [spoiler]Michael Fassbender's[/spoiler] character will be [spoiler]an android[/spoiler].

This trailer is still only just over a minute long so there maybe more later around 11pm http://go.amctheatres.com/prometheus

I get the creeping suspicion that space jockeys are humans with biomechanoid add-ons.

Yeah was just gonna post that here myself. Prometheus was always a Prequel , but they had to rename it to let that AVP fanboys know that it isn't going to be a generic rehash.

Also its a nice cash in.

Fuck you Walt.

Like it or not at this point Judge Dredd '95 is considered a cult classic to a lot of people.

We'll get a poster before a trailer, shirley?

Don't call me Shirley.

I'm just glad to hear that they're not going to tone it down. This film will hopefully be in stark contrast to all the other homogenised comic book movies coming out this year.
