Trailer for Ridley Scott's Alien prequel leaked

[Branden Albert's Huge Balls]

Terrible footage but here is a good description:

• The trailer starts with the 20th Century FOX logo. You hear a transmission. A woman (which I assume to be Rapace) is saying "...got to stop... was wrong.. so wrong...I'm so sorry...". You can hear the last part very clearly.
• The first scene shows a spaceship (similar to the one seen in the first leaked trailer) flying towards a planet on the background.
• Next you see is the surface of a planet and some sort of facility. It kinda looks like a Lunar base to me.
• Now they show this scene from the Comic-con footage.
• You can see the film's title forming in the background during most of the trailer. Pretty much like in the introductory scene of Alien.
• Next is the Ampule room. They show it off from all different angles and finally a close up of the ampules. Suddenly you hear a high pitch scream. It's not human. It sounds like if it was from a facehugger. Then there's a lot of smoke from what seems to be acid corrosion. They show a guy in a spacesuit. He's alone. Screaming and putting his hands over his helmet. It looks just like the Kane/derelict scene in Alien.
• Now they show the same spaceship from earlier. Same shot as in the first leaked trailer. Flying towards what seems to be a different planet in the background.
• The next 2 scenes are from the comic-con footage. 1, 2.
• Now they show Vickers running across a hallway. Same scene as in the first leaked trailer.
• Next seems to me someone in a spacesuit. Driving a futuristic vehicle in some desert like surface. Heading towards some structure or facility in the middle of nowhere at full speed.
• Impressive shot of the Iceland waterfalls.
• Next is this scene from the comic-con footage. They seem to be shooting at something or someone but they don't show it.
• Next you see is some grey-black serpent like creature. Jumping ala facehugger from some sort of grey-goo cavity. Now they show the whole scene. There's two guys in their spacesuits. One lying on the ground (it seems to be the impregnated guy from earlier) and another one checking on him. The creature jumps from what seems to be the insides of the previous impregnated guy to the other one.
• Now they show someone with a expression of pain. The guy is still in his spacesuit and someone appears to be holding him in their arms.
• Now you can see a device or hologram of some sort. It looks like an atom or a planet. I'm not sure if it's a planet or just some molecular structure tbh. The center of the hologram is a single sphere so it should be a planet system. Probably the coordinates to some other world.
• Now this shot from comic-con.
• Next is a spaceship being destroyed while in the air.
• One guy in a spacesuit pouncing at someone else while holding something. It looks like it's going to hurt.
• Next is the space jockey room. Same as in the Comic-con footage. The center piece of the plate opens and the space jockey chair rotates out of the ground.
• Next scene shows off a very inflated belly. Like if the person was pregnant but there's something bigger than a chestbuster moving inside. Seems to be Rapace's.
• Idris Elba yells while aboard of what seems to be the Prometheus.
• The sandstorm + Rapace spacesuit scene. Same as in the first leaked trailer. Close up of Rapace. She gets hit by the storm and she falls down a pit. It's the scene depicted in the official still released around comic-con.
• Now you can clearly read Prometheus. The whole title has formed in the background. They show it for a few seconds.
• Now a close up of Rapace's face. She's in pain. It seems to be the same scene as in the first leaked trailer. The one with the green lasers scanning her belly.
• Now they show someone in a spacesuit looking at the derelict in the surface of a planet with clear skies.
• The words "They went looking"
• The derelict again. It's vertical to the ground. It would be impossible to enter it from the same place as in Alien.
• The words "for earth's beginning"
• Still on the same planet. The derelict (or something really big) seems to be falling down from above. The guy in the spacesuit is running away now. Trying not to get crushed.
• The words "what they found"
• They now show two guys running away.
• The words "could be its the end"
• They show the same guys again. Running away from what appears to be a huge gigerish structure (it feels like it's moving but it's hard to tell). Perhaps the derelict in flight. There's a lot of smoke. What appears to be debris on fire are falling from above. They keep running away from it.
• The trailer ends.
• The music reminded me a lot of the one from Inception (the 'horns sounds'). But mixed with what appears to be the music from the original trailer for Alien. Same music during all the trailer.

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).

Reviews are starting to roll in now at RT. 89% positive so far.

I'm not going to read any of them because I want to risk spoiling anything before I see it, but I'm really, really getting stoked about this.

[keg in kc]

I expect the RT reviews to be a little more on the negative side than we might hope. I think high concept ideas are a harder sell than popcorn stuff like Avengers (which isn't saying it was bad in any way...) so I expect there to be a wider range of reactions, especially among the top critics, few of whom are nearly as smart as they think they are. We'll see, though.

I'll see this opening night if I can - definitely opening weekend. Haven't been this excited about a new movie coming out since the last Star Trek.

I'm definitely seeing it the day it opens.

yep, hence the reason I bolded the "hard sell" part out of the quote

This is true. I remember my parents going to see it when it first came out and they came home and told me it was crap. I watched it a year later on cable and hated it. Didn't watch it again for at least 10 years then I really enjoyed it. I think it's brilliant now. Waaaay ahead of its time and probably the most influential scifi movies of he past 30 Years for sure.

In 1993 the film was selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry by the Library of Congress as being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant".

I thought it was awesome when I saw it the first time. One my favorite movies from my high school days.

Yea, well you were a little bit older than me. I was only 11 or 12 when i first saw it. I wasnt quite ready for "deep, thought provoking" Scifi being raised on Star Wars, Buck Rodgers and Battlestar Galactica.

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.

A buddy of mine just scored us Imax 3D tickets for Midnight showing next Friday.

Fully stoked. I've been avoiding previews and reviews.
