Re: Official Alien Prequel/Prometheus Discussion Thread

For me Prometheus is the prequel of Alien's prequel! if there are the space jockey and Weyland Yutani, I will be very happy!

I'm loving all the news and speculation about this film! I'm definitely looking forward to it!!

" Prometheus is also said to involve "biochemical technology" and will see the main spacecraft piloted by a giant CGI head. "

Ok then...

Re: Official Alien Prequel/Prometheus Discussion Thread

Yea the CGI head I don't like. Make it a program like Mother in Alien where it speaks and interacts but has no image.

Everything else sounds gold.

I was kinda wondering where the thread had gone...

Anyway, can't be bothered to look through the merged threads, so here's a couple of newsy links I got from the fine folks at the Hive:

Re: Official Alien Prequel/Prometheus Discussion Thread

Yeah, but I haven't seen them around here, just thought I might share some of the love...

Re: Official Alien Prequel/Prometheus Discussion Thread

I'm too anticy about the news...

Re: Official Alien Prequel/Prometheus Discussion Thread

Could have worked on this only if i realised earlier it was actually getting in production
All those news about it being cancelled lost me at one point.

Re: Official Alien Prequel/Prometheus Discussion Thread

Oh, thanks for that link Nacho! bookmarked!

So nice to have this board when I can be too lazy or busy to search for information myself. Looks like a very informative site, and I will have to spend some time this weekend perusing it.

Is that a Predator shoulder cannon!? ugh..

Re: Official Alien Prequel/Prometheus Discussion Thread

Is that a Predator shoulder cannon!? ugh..

That's what some are speculating over there. Space Jockeys and Predators connected?

 

[uscmhicks]

Re: Official Alien Prequel/Prometheus Discussion Thread

Oh man. I hope it just looks similar , I can't imagine Ridley putting predator stuff in this. From what I can remember he and James Cameron have both mentioned in the past they wern't exactly fans of AVP. It's always a possiblity though with both franchises being under the same wing.

 

[CelticPredator]

Re: Official Alien Prequel/Prometheus Discussion Thread

Aside from THAT...I ____ing love it. So very, very much.


I want to hope that canon is a coincidence......I cant imagine Ridley, of all the people, wanted to connect those franchises.

Re: Official Alien Prequel/Prometheus Discussion Thread

It was an April fools joke by them

Re: Official Alien Prequel/Prometheus Discussion Thread

I still love that pic though.
