Where did you hear that it was a direct prequel? Everything Ridley has said is that its a prequel to the "events" from Alien, but it is not the prequel.

He said the last 30 minutes or so pretty much explain what happened in Alien. Like, how the space jockey got there.

That will be interesting, especially since they are not on LV-426 and the trailer shows the Jockey ship crashing/smashing into the prometheus. Either way I think they will indeed shed a LOT of light about the jockeys in general. I just dont think they will show anything about the jockey ship getting to LV-426.

Two more days to go. Lots of Alien/Aliens fans (note: not that Alien 3 or AVP crap) have waited a long time for an explanation of the jockey(s).

The "Space Jockeys" are just an environment type suit for something else. Maybe more than one something. We've already seen space jockey suits for humans in the Prometheus trailer. That's not to say that the space jockey suit in Alien was for a human per say. Cause it was huge. But I think it's just a suit.

This was in the background in the trailer, lightened up to show the suits.

I read a Ridley interview. he said initially the project started out to be a pure prequel. then other things got in the way and it sat for years. he went back to it and decided that he wanted it be able to stand alone and apart from the Alien movies....but in his words "it shares DNA with the Alien series". it's going to be very interesting to see how he can pull that off. the space jockey was obviously "chest bursted" as clearly seen in Alien and Aliens the uncut version. the space jockey is alive and well in this movie as seen in the trailers. I......can't......wait! I'm stoked.

by the way......I LOVE it that some reviews are bad. I find that often times I really dig moview that critics hate.
