Prometheus is almost upon us.
The Alien Prequel is set to open in theaters on Friday, June 8th, 2012. Or for people like me, at 11:59pm on Thursday, June 8th.
I’m waiting for Prometheus more than any other movie this year. With so many crappy movies coming out, it’s extra invigorating for me to finally see a great movie (or at least a great hope of a movie) come to life this year.
Even Batman as The Dark Knight Rises, which so many people are waiting for, appears boring to me. I loved the first Batman Begins reboot with Christian Bale. Christian Bale was awesome in it, with his entire character portraying a lost human being who is simply angry and hopeless because of losing his parents.
Then The Joker created one of the most interesting characters in cinematic history, putting Christian Bale’s then-and-still ever-weakening-performance to shame.
With all the effort put into trying to make Batman appear philosophical, in the end it’s just a rich guy with a robotic suit fighting bad guys because he is bored with life and wants to feel better about losing his parents. That plot line, the one you just read, appears more normal and exciting than the random gibberish lines they put in Batman just to make the movie sound more intelligent than what it is.
It’s just another Batman movie, and Batman won’t die. You know the ending already.
Prometheus, in contrast, is completely fresh. Ever since the spaceship crash scene in Alien came to light in 1979 (or in the later decades for many of us), everyone has been wondering and dreaming what that spaceship and its content represented.
Now Ridley Scott is giving us the story behind Alien, which will not be related to Alien in terms of a direct prequel. It’s completely fresh, or at least appears to be. It’s a completely different movie plot than the entire Alien series it seems. A different universe, and different life forms completely.
With so many sites and blogs talking about Prometheus, it was kind of hard finding the different official pieces of Prometheus media released by Ridley.
I went around and collected all the trailers here, in one page. Also included is the entire Prometheus film plot that people have been able to gather from all these trailers.

Are You Waiting for Prometheus?
Ridley Scott with Noomi Rapace - Prometheus shooting set
Alien was the first real movie, if I’m not mistaken, which propelled the female “gender” into the mainstream action genre. With Alien, people saw Sigourney Weaver as a real star based on her performance. It was a landmark movie in more than just the horror genre.
The current Prometheus talk and interest is no doubt currently riding on the success of the entire Alien (and some “Alien VS Predator“) series and all the trailers and media being released by Ridley Scott.
Will it work? I hope so.
What do you think of Prometheus? Will you go see it?
Which trailer did you like the best? Which is your least favorite trailer?
Please share your thoughts in the comments below. As for me: I’ll be seeing the movie the midnight it opens.
Thanks for reading! 
I watched every one of those trailers. I particularly liked the Peter Weyland TED 2023 clip, it really deepens the Prometheus back story. Can’t wait to see this, role on 8th of June.
Thanks for the comment, James!
The Peter Weyland TED talk did indeed do the trick – it made the entire thing become more intelligent than almost anything else out there.
Going to watch it the midnight it comes out!
Prometheus – Full Plot and All Trailers http://t.co/vFlkNTMU – will you watch it?
I have been hearing great things about this for a long time and think it will be the movie of the year.
Thanks Paul!
I think so too – even if it’s not considered the movie of the year, I think (or am hoping) it will be the most intelligent horror/science-fiction movie of the year (and one of the best ever).
This is going to be a Great movie,
Trailers are awesome and definitely trailed.
I’m so exited to watch this movie…….
Thanks….
I’m also excited about this movie, Peejay!
The trailers are very cool, and the actual story line seems awesome too.
I have heard a lot about this movie. I just watched the trailer. I liked it. I think it will be a blockbuster!
i saw all the trailers, and i think i will go and see it when it comes to my city.
i liked the trailers, this film i think i need to see
I honestly can’t wait for this movie! Thanks for the post, nice blog BTW
they continue movies based on the old greek mythology! the history is great!
Quite interesting! I think Prometheus will hit really BIG audiences. I like the last part of PROMETHEUS OFFICIAL FULL TRAILER ” Big things have small beginnings. “
This movie reminds of cyborg, a science fiction movie in the 90′s. The story has the same similarity. Looking forward on watching this movie one time.
I’m looking forward on watching this….hope they will release it as soon as possible
Nice show. I watched every one of those trailers, i like Prometheus Extended “STORY” Featurette more. Thanks.
The Trailer is great, I must say !
But the movie is just ……., You know the drill !
I have yet to see this movie and I have heard mixed reviews about but I will judge it for myself and only comment then on whether it was good or bad. That said I do applaud you for the time and effort you took to put this up.
Nice post, I am sure to come bach again in future …
Why they have created when they want to finish us now? Good movie !
