This is just the trailer of the trailer(Actually, it's the announcement of the date). The official trailer will be released on thursday.

[yoco]

Yes indeed, that was my fault, I thought it was a teaser, but it's just a promo for a trailer. Check back in a few days, I'll post the real trailer then! :)

big words, but what about the final result?

and strand them on a distant world, where they will discover the answers to our most profound questions and to life's ultimate mystery.

ROFLMAO
yeah, sure, the 'truth is out there', buried in the depths of the universe, waiting for our 'valiant' scientists to uncover one day in the distant future - as long as one believes such nonsense (on multiple levels, see the note below) and patiently waits for their 'discoveries' it is quite easy to forget to search in the most obvious of places: one's own self

note:

- truth is 'out there'? the truth must also be 'in here', meaning: everywhere
- buried in the depths of the universe? what about buried in the depths of your own being? what about hidden in plain sight? meaning: its not the truth that is hidden, it is you that is currently unable to perceive it ('looking' in the wrong place, using the wrong methods or reasoning, having the wrong attitude/state)
- 'valiant' scientists? i'm afraid many of them have become slaves of their own dogmas, conformist to the established authoritative views/opinions/theories, dependent (and thus controlled or at least susceptible to it or sufficiently insecure to dare raising their voice) regarding financial donations/support, concerning their working positions & careers
- scientists uncovering ultimate truths? to be able to do that they would need ultimate tools - obviously, scientific tools (theories, measuring equipment, computers, models, math) of any era cannot reach a point where they will become perfect enough to 'measure' perfection (something that is ultimate or absolute or fundamental), ie. for this kind of task they are pretty much useless
- one day in the distant future? aka delaying tactics

The title of the upcoming film, now in post-production,[5] is an allusion to the Titan god, Prometheus, of Greek mythology, who stole fire from Zeus and gave it to humankind - an act which brought eternal punishment upon the god. While actually being the name of the humans' spaceship in the story,[6] the name "Prometheus" is used in a greater metaphorical sense

apply the same logic as above to the fire and you'll notice how this glorified story or more correctly its implications/allusions crumble to pieces

@yoco
I was referring to atlantis's comment that the trailer sucks so hard. I am glad you posted this promo.

[yoco]

As promised, here's the real deal!

[atlantis]

It seems they copied some things from Alien 1

[yoco]

But overall, did you guys like the trailer? I was rather disappointed. I was expecting at least two minutes long!

[Instab]

this looks exactly as i love it. the looks, the kind of tech, the atmosphere ... perfect for me. maybe that's gonna be the best thing since the alien series

[shawshankraj]

I really like the trailer,atmosphere look like more from aliens2 than aliens.Background music justify the atmosphere..Looking forward to this.

[yoco]

I guess I'm the only one who doesn't expect much from this movie! :)

[shawshankraj]

[yoco]

Yes I saw all of them! My favorite is the second one. I love it!
