shardyPrometheus Forumprometheus era tech earlier AND better
@poll III: i'm glad you created this topic although i'm really diggin' the fresh looking PROMETHEUS tech, i'd say this new tech is far more advanced than ANYTHING that i saw in my beloved ALIEN (1979) movie its one thing to create "grunge", its another thing to create an obviously far more advanced look for a story that takes place decades earlier than ALIEN did prime example, is what Lucas did with R2-D2 in the last 3 Star Wars prequels he did, R2 had ALL that tech, it looked really out of place when you see the situations it was in in the first 3 Star Wars films but, that is the risk that is taken when sci-fi prequels are done in spite of that, i'm still very excited to see this new film. can't wait..!

This is indeed a great thread. Thanks Snork for starting it and keeping it going. Some really good theories in here. Nice to see we still have these great discussions. With some of the newer members, we've had some really odd threads!

this thread has become the idea of beating a dead horse. RS can't and didn't plan on satisfying everyone. I plan on seeing Prometheus and enjoying it! Run away dead horse! Run!

I think what you're all saying is what I always wondered or hoped was the key to some deeper meanings/visions/illusions behind Alien - and why it always seemed like the most authentic movie about 'alien life' to me. It's what intrigued me about the Jockey when I was a kid. Did it really grow out of the chair? Was the ship a huge organism? What are the secrets of life that it could be so varied and strange? I really hope we're going to get glints in the film of this kind of potential universe-expanding and truly alien stuff that will also reflect back on us and our development - or misdevelopment, as the case may be... : p Thanks for those great responses!

Totally different ship. End of story. We saw at least 5 temple domes, could be at least 5 ships there.

I saved a HD copy and have been watching it over and over and over and it is quite simply the single best trailer for any film I have ever seen. I crank up the surround/THX and it is just out of this world man

@aintnozeno Exactly. I can understand your disappointment, but I sort of appreciate the way RS addressed it in a no-nonsense way. But perhaps the VR style manipulation of comp applications ala minority report was a little much. Certainly not a deal-breaker though. Can you imagine that being the issue that stopped the film from getting made? No, I'll accept a 2012 movie as a 2012 movie, and suspend disbelief for the sake of this very exciting movie. @allinamberclad Or rather, to have a 2012 movie stylistically look like a 2012 movie with 2012 filmmaking techniques... a movie that is occuring in the alien canon, before another film that reflected tech from the era in which it was made. It was certainly a choice that had to be made by Scott and/or those at the heart of the creative process. That was my question, and I got my answer.

I like your whole train of thought Silica because if Shaw's baby is a hybrid creature then it could have a mix of our evolutionary history and theirs (whatever that is). Who knows where the squid/eel traits came from, maybe it continues to grow that way because it's an evolutionary step we both kind of share, originally coming from single celled organisms in the oceans of worlds the Jockies terraformed. Maybe it becomes more like a jockey/human hybrid and keeps its aquatic traits and monstrous look because of the mixture.

@ pol lll: You're not starting any arguments at all. Your curiosity of the change in the look is the same for many of us. Most of us had already done the best we could to figure it out too, and Ridley's remarks came for me at least as a disappointment. That was why my post was short, not because you asked the wrong question. While I love eye candy, I also think there should be some continuity with the technology. Of course, if they used 1979 tech for Prometheus, it would look alot like the Mutant Chronicles... I wouldn't pay to go see that one.

We share with the other creatures on this planet as humans... Why? Because we rule. Politics and religion aside that is. I'm talking dna. Hopefully someday we will learn our truth before it is too late. Otherwise the dolphins will thank us for all the fish!

[quote]Dont forget some Religious people do not ackowlege many things that are fact, some say the Dinosaurs was created by Man by that they just sculptures, and that indeed Man has never been on the Moon and will never ever be able to leave Earths Orbit. Period because the Bible says so ;)[/quote] Big Dave, I would pay good money to have you show me where exactly in the Bible you pulled this information. As someone who has actually read it, I can tell you I've never seen such a silly remark in any text of the Bible- Old or New Testament. If I have misunderstood your post, I do in fact apologize.
