So Theron is really playing an android in this movie, right?

I love behind-the-scene photos like this. t: Rapace looks like she's having alot of fun here.

 

[Boom]

They need to hurry up and announce the rating. The suspense is killing me.

That's Iceland where Noomi is in that pic, right?

I've never understood why this is a big deal to people? What if it's rated G? Would that make you not want to see it?

swearing, gore and nudity don't have to be in an intense movie to make it good

Scott has pretty much said he wants it to be Rated R. Therefore, I'd like to see the film the director wants.

I think the trailer pretty much already confirmed that it'd be somewhere between PG-13 and R. Since the original Alien was rated R, I hope Scott will get to keep this rating for Prometheus. Besides, the two AvP movies were rated PG-13 and let's just say it is one of their many problems.

can't wait for this film!!

New Revealing Quotes by Prometheus Cast & Crew

What if you could meet God but God turned out to be the Devil?”
Michael Ellenberg, Prometheus executive producer
“Ridley was inspired by everything from the Nazca Lines in Peru, which are these vast Earth sculptures can only be seen from the air, to cave paintings in France, to ancient Egypt and ancient Mayan civilisations. We’re pushing beyond what’s been found thus far and speculating about what maybe found in the future.”
Michael Ellenberg, Prometheus executive producer
“Very loosely, these creatures are some kind of genetic Engineers on an interplanetary level… They go around creating life. In certain ways, they’re kind of God-like.”
Arthur Max, production designer
“a movie based on a philosophy and not an alien. The movie’s intelligence holds you through most its runtime before you get in to all the action. You’re turning the page not just because of what happens but what is said.“
Logan Marshall-Green
“Certainly, it makes an argument that will move away Darwinism, let’s just say!”
Logan Marshall-Green
“It’s about the beginning of life and the eternal ‘what if’… Has this ball we’ve been sitting on right now been around for three billion years or one billion? And if we haven’t been pre-visited (by alien civilisations), then what was this planet doing for all that time before life came along? It’s only our arrogance that says, ‘No, it’s impossible, we’re the first ones.’ Are we the first hominids? I really, really, really doubt it. In recent memory or legend we keep talking about wonderful, weird things such as Atlantis – what is that? Where does that come from? Is that real, was it real, is it a memory, did it exist? And if that did exist, did it exist three quarters of a billion years ago? There’d be nothing left now. How was that created and who was it?”
Ridley Scott
“Ridley first called me in mid-July of (2010),… I’d never met him before, but obviously I was a massive fan of his work. I was driving in my car when the phone rang and a voice on the other end said, ‘Ridley Scott is going to call you in five minutes, are you available?’ After crashing my car and dealing with the immediate aftermath of that, I started talking to Ridley Scott. I was sort of trembling when he called me on the phone and he said he was going to send me a script.”
Damon Lindelof
“He was also driven by these bigger thematic ideas about what this movie could be about… We started having conversations, and as a result of those conversations we worked very closely together for a couple of months, rewriting the script until he was satisfied that it felt like it was its own movie.”
Damon Lindelof
“I think that one of the really interesting ideas that the movie is dealing with… s this sense that space exploration, particularly in the future, is going to start to be not just about going out there and finding planets, so that we can build colonies, or anything else, but also this inherent idea that, the further we go out, perhaps the more we learn about ourselves. And, I think the characters in this movie – some of them at least – are very preoccupied with the idea of, ‘Where did we come from? What are our origins? What is our place in the universe? Are we the only sentient beings, or are there others?’”
Damon Lindelof
“It’s basically about trying to find out if there was intervention in the birth of civilisation on planet Earth by other beings, which we come to know as Engineers, and whether they had a master plan in mind for us.”
Michael Fassbender
“There’s always politics within, and that’s why, I think, this cast got together. The tempo, the pace, the intelligence of the script; each person has got their own agenda on that ship and it’s each a very individual agenda. Some people are there for the pay. Other people are there to get answers. Other people are there to hopefully attain some sort of secret. Others are there in somewhat of a spite journey. You’ve got all these collective relationships, individuals and motivations and that’s what makes quite intriguing even before the **** hits the fan.”
Michael Fassbender
“I thought there was tremendous potential to explore themes that the script was already exploring, through the eyes of a character that was so different from everybody else who’s on this mission… You have these scientists going out there – one is a believer, one really isn’t – and you play on all these themes, but to really experience all of that stuff from the point of view of somebody who comes from a much more cold, economic, business suit sense of it was interesting.”
Charlize Theron

New Revealing Quotes by Prometheus Cast & Crew

sounds fantastic!!!

 

[Boom]

There's something about the Space Jockeys that has always intrigued me.

In Alien, the Jockey's nose seems to be attached to the lower abdomen, which means it's highly unlikely that it was used for breathing. So what, then, is its purpose - assuming its not just a bizarre design choice?

They need to hurry up and announce the rating. The suspense is killing me.

do you know about the TED movie? its Mark Whalberg comedy about a teddy bear who talks. its a R rated movie. last week they realesed a R rated trailer and this week a green band trailer. this is how you know what a rating a movie will have. no r rated traielrs have been realesed for prometheus. if it was r rated they would show a r rated trailer.

its over. its pg13.

you wrotte a good post. but based on your post you have no idea what rating means and how it works in hollywood. first of if it was G rated then noone would watch the movie. because cartoons (not pixar cartoons) are g rated. second swearing,gore and nudity is not the only reason why you would get a r rating.

or we want intensity on the level on an r rated film, and forgive me if I think its silly when a film has people being violently killed and theres not a speck of blood (war horse was bizarre in that respect.

Not all r rated movies get red band tailers.

In fact more or less the only red band trailers that come out are for foul mouthed comedies like TED.

plus now TED is rolling out general audience trailers as well.

Why do people assume people want swearing, gore and nudity just because they want it rated r? And yea if it was G i wouldn't see it.

 

[CapedCrusader14]

I wouldn't see it if it was G either.

 

[redhawk23]

Hey man don't knock the G rating.

At differing times of history the G rating could get you Charleston Heston's bare ass, forced lobotomies, and mutants peeling their faces off.

Goddamn I love the Planet of the Apes.

 

[AVEITWITHJAMON]

or we want intensity on the level on an r rated film, and forgive me if I think its silly when a film has people being violently killed and theres not a speck of blood (war horse was bizarre in that respect.

Have to agree with this, while I loved the movie it was strange seeing war scene's and mass killing with not one spec of blood, took me out of the movie sometimes.

surely they could have picked a more flattering photo.

New Revealing Quotes by Prometheus Cast & Crew

I'm glad Ridley has finally tackled what, to me, is the toughest issue humanity will face on the whole first contact issue....namely, the impact the existence of aliens will have on organized religion. The only other movie I can recall that kinda sorta flirted with the concept was Contact, the film based on Michael Crichton's novel; but it wasn't a major part of the movie. In Prometheus, it's the central issue.

The mere existence of aliens would create profound questions for long-established dogma of religions like Christianity, Islam, Hinduism and Buddhism. Where do aliens fit in the Bible, or the Koran? Do they believe in God/Allah/Brahma? Do they have a religion of their own?

 

[marvelman2006]

I like that statment of what if you could meet god and he was the devil. Its been far too long since weve have a deep scifi movie and I hope this washes away those AVP movies that turned the xenomorphs into a mindless beast who lined up to get shot by the predators.

 

[L0ngsh0t]

I think the trailer pretty much already confirmed that it'd be somewhere between PG-13 and R. Since the original Alien was rated R, I hope Scott will get to keep this rating for Prometheus. Besides, the two AvP movies were rated PG-13 and let's just say it is one of their many problems.

The problem with AVP is it just isn't a good movie, the raiting has nothing to do with it.
