edit: also, I think I'm developing a man-crush on Fassbender's eyes.

Hell...I'll let him fuck my current girl now cuz he's amazing. And most likely better than me in every fashion...especially after Shame. *shaking his head*

I can't believe this will actually be my first IMAX experience. But I am so excited that this movie I can't put it off anymore.

I just placed "Shame" in my queue as a result of watching that clip. I thought Fassbender was the definitive Magneto in the previous X-Men , and I think he is a very fine actor.

I don't know if this has been posted or if it's even considered a spoiler, but I'll hide it anyways. I read this in the EW Summer preview:

Full International trailer:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1byZkbNB3Jw#ws
Shows much more than previous ones - a creature, helmet melting, etc. It was impossible for me to resist, but a few shots might've been better to experience for the first time in the theater.

If this movie winds up sucking, I anticipate a meltdown in this forum of Crystal Skull level proportions. (While I was on a "sabbatical" of sorts from DVDTalk when that was released, I can only imagine what happened. I thought it was okay, but around here merely okay Indiana Jones= epic fail).

Let me embed that for ya cuz it's bound to be lost if nobody says anything of it.
well..this is slightly terrifying...

Yeah...if this sucks it'll be bad. It'll be worse than Indiana Jones' backlash. People were excited but many were still weary of it coming back. THIS on the other hand has shit tons of expectations..and it has absolute fuck all to do that it's part of Alien. No..it's mostly about Ridley going back to Science Fiction. THAT is the reason this is huge. You know...cuz he did 2 of the greatest films ever and 2 of the greatest films in it's genre.

Do you mean terrifying in the sense that it makes the movie look like it sucks, or as in really scary and disturbing material? I'll presume the latter as that is how I felt. Also, the Space Jockeys are clearly evident in this spot, even though they looks like holographic renderings. Furthermore

Re: Prometheus (2012, D: Scott, Fassbender, Rapace, Theron, Wilson, Elba)
the latter, so yes...you're correct.
I don't know honestly about her. Even w/ that huge ass spoiler I put up. I don't want to presume or assume anything on that character. There's just enough to sway me on her being the other...but I keep maintaining she is just like anyone else..just a major hardass.

There was a tracking story a few weeks ago on public interest/awareness and Prometheus scored very low... (I think Avengers and Dark Knight were tops by a large margin). So, any online drama is pretty much strictly related to just us who are going to see it regardless of how it turns out. At this point I would say it's best chances to gain a larger audience would be stellar reviews and some stories as to how disturbing it is, in which case an R-rating might help that.
If you look at the original Alien, it really isn't a very hard R at all... literally a few less F-words and bloody shots and I think it could get a PG-13 today. It also didn't cost 200million (even adjusted).... so, I'm assuming there's some very impressive footage that hasn't been shown yet by the marketing dept.

Yeah, that new Prometheus trailer is very spoiler-ish, but doesn't take a genius to put the pieces together. I also called

Re: Prometheus (2012, D: Scott, Fassbender, Rapace, Theron, Wilson, Elba)
Wasn't that recognized about six months ago? The approach by the filmmakers here is to make a film that would stand on it's own - as if they were making an original film. That's why they've gone to such lengths to not come anywhere near the word "prequel", because in light of of other series, that brings a certain negative reaction.

Imagine a summer when Raiders of the Lost Ark, Star Wars and Terminator 2 came out at the same time. That's what this summer is feeling like with The Avengers, Prometheus and The Dark Knight Rises. Impossibly strong.
