I think the only thing I'm worried about is losing some of the mystery of the space jockey. Like, if they try to explain too much about what its species is, and what connection they have to humanity. It's good for a ficitional world to have intentional 'gray areas', elements that are never fully resolved and thus make it more authentic. But I'm still cautiously optimistic.
Gridman! Baby DAN DAN! Baby DAN DAN!

I bet that Space Jockey was the John Hammond of his people, and the eggs on board the ship were the raptors of his theme park. If he hadn't crashed, some other member of his species would be all, "You bred raptors xenos?!"

This looks like it could be pretty boss, prequel or no.
But if there's no Sigourney Weaver cameo, I will be kind of disappointed.

Hot damn! It is funny how they are trying to kill the link between Aliens and this movie yet even if you ignore the new news that Weyland is the owner of the Prometheus, you can't ignore the couple of scenes in the trailer that give it away. First is that there is a space jockey. What is a space jockey? Well one can be found briefly in the first movie in the ship that the crew of the Nostromo found on LV-426 and was the source of the distress call that led the crew of the Nostromo to their encounter with the Xenomorphs.
Here is the space jockey in Aliens:
And here is the one in the trailer:
Also the rows of what looks kinda like cylinders reminds me a lot of the eggs that the face huggers came out of, only inorganic.

Whoops, I'm way to tired to be posting this early at night, I missed the first couple of posts about the space jockey room.
ridley scott already made blade runner aka the best looking movie ever made ever so
that doesn't really have much to do with the CGI discussion actually, I just wanted to make sure everyone knew that blade runner is the best movie ever

Best looking ain't best.
It's pretty as they come, but man. Deckard is a straight up chump.
Someone wants to call it a good movie, fine. Great, I'll nod.
Best, in a world with Casablanca, the Godfather, and Die Hard (oh, and Aliens, can't forget that.)?
Minority for saying, as a movie, Casablanca is better than Blade Runner?
Fine.
I acknowledge it may be the prettiest movie ever. I'm not saying it's bad apart from that. I saw the Final Cut on a big screen and it was a great night.
But I will go to my grave saying Deckard, unlike other Harrison Ford characters I could name, is straight up chumpsville.

"Let me show you."
I never thought I would love a one minute long movie trailer
I especially never thought a one minute long movie trailer would sell me on seeing a movie. Day one.
Then I saw the Prometheus trailer. Holy shit.
Steam
BOOOONG BOOOOONG BOOOONG
thanks inception
I thought this too, but im pretty sure the music is from Alien? Or a homage to it?
More like, the iconic Alien teaser paved the way for trailers to be all BOOONG BOOOONG BOOONG, and now Prometheus is paying homage to it.

We got the Prometheus trailer and he loudly proclaimed his standard response to his mother
I really wanted to turn to him and tell him to go watch Alien and Aliens and then come back and tell me how much they fucked his world up
Contained within is an invoice from a local child psychologist.
Prometheus sent more shivers down my spine than anything else while I giggled at the latter.
Well damn!
The Prometheus trailer is so good
I think it's the music that makes it. That DUUUUMMM *scream!* DUUUUMM *scream!* combo just works

High five, Ghost.

Deckard spends the entire movie drunk off his ass
He has nothing to prove to you
