I looked up "Prometheus" because I really couldn't remember the legend, other than I knew "Frankenstein" is subtitled "The Modern Prometheus"- and now I think I may have inadvertently spoilered myself.  |

I'll wait for the film & make up my own mind.
John Carter got a lot of bad reviews but I really enjoyed it. |

You could probably cut a trailer from the original Alien and make it look "all spectacle". I'm still hopeful there'll be plenty of atmosphere in this one! |

I remember the original trailer, and to me that looked different. Although I see that's a different point to the one which you made.
I'm not going to keep on whinging about it though. |

| Lots of stuff on TV about this last night, if like me you were ever intrigued by the space jockey growing out of his chair, get ready for an anticlimax. |

This is great. So far I've ignored all they hype, trailers and news about this movie. I even had to switch channels watching Homeland on C4 when they showed a trailer and the next commercial break which featured twitter comments from people who had watched the trailer. Which, I imagine, would be considered brilliant marketing if you're an easily-impressed media type but frankly, I'm going to ignore all the publicity, go to the cinema and watch the movie without exposure to the hype.
Believe me, it'll take a lot to make up for Robin Hood. |

| I didn't realise that it was an Alien movie, and thought it looked good. I am in two minds about seeing this, though. |

Doctor Elizabeth Shaw, a tribute to a companion of a certain time-traveller?
I can see Noomi Rapace becoming something of a fan favourite.... |

This would be pretty freaky if you made the journey everyday and didn't expect it...
An abandoned French subway station was turned into the set of Prometheus
| Quote: | | We now live in an era when gonzo viral marketing runs the risk of being more intriguing than the film it's designed to promote. In Paris, the Saint-Martin stop (which has been unused for 73 years) on the Metro's Line 9 was transformed into the extraterrestrial architecture of Prometheus, giving passengers a glimpse of Gigeresque Hell on their daily commute. I hope this set sticks around for years, an artifact of film promotions past, sort of like the Space Jam website. |
