Prometheus

[redhawk23]

12% of the US population cannot see 3D due to eye issues.

Have there been any movies ONLY released in 3d though?

 

[Eelectro 2]

no and there is no reason they should ever force a film to be released in just 3d. i just hope more movies realize they are going to be watched on regular screens and regular dvds that arent in 3d and the film still needs to stand up to those standars and not be so annoyingly aimed to be a 3d effect.

 

[JAK®]

There has never been a 3D film that is unwatchable in 2D, specifically because of the reasons you just gave.

EXCLUSIVE: Some juicy details from the set of Prometheus


A source who says he's currently working at Pinewood Studios sent me an email today revealing some very juicy details regarding Prometheus. Surely with a few hundred people working at Pinewood every day it can't be easy for Sir Ridley and team to keep everything entirely under wraps.

I've made a few checks on this source and the story and it all seems pretty trustworthy to me, so please take this news as you wish.



First of all, this source managed to come across a call sheet which was for filming between April 6th - 8th. The call sheet was for the S Stage at Pinewood, where apparently the bridge of the Prometheus was being filmed. On this call sheet were the following names:

Charlize Theron - Vickers
Idris Elba - Janek
Emun Elliot - Chance
Benedict Wong - Ravel



Emun Elliot is previously known from TV series Lip Service, and Benedict Wong is probably better known having played in movies such as Sunshine, Moon, Dirty Pretty Things and Spy Game.

To back this story up, Wong's twitter feed on March 22nd (the day after Prometheus began shooting) secretly confirms his involvement in Prometheus.

"prometheus........boom!"​

And here's the most interesting news, I've left for last:

"Though security on the set is very tight with the good weather, dock doors have been open and cast and crew have been enjoying lunch outdoors.
I can confirm seeing 3 aliens having lunch. Not the whole costume but blueish costumes and the unmistakable heads hanging around their shoulders"​

I asked the source to elaborate some more on the look of the aliens, and their resemblance to the aliens from the original Alien movies:

"The alien heads were the same shape but no markings, only a plane bronze colour. As for the suits black boots and shoulder pads the rest was a Chelsea blue body suit could be for SFX, all the sets around the back of the bond stage have huge green chromokey maybe that's a clue.
I have witnessed foam cut outs of unmistakable aliens all cut in half lengh ways so they could be in the floor walls etc and very much from the original film."​

My informant also managed to take a look at the Bond stage, where according to previous rumors the Space Jockey's space craft has been built. And his impression pretty much backs this rumor up:

"I managed to enter the bond stage one weekend when no filming was sheduled all I can say is there is a very very long tunnel that leads to an enormous structure at the back of the stage which is the same height as the stage and probably extends out another 200 ft.
All of these sets are surrounded by wood foam and scaffold so sid not see inside, I think this is were the Space Jockey set is."​

He was in Moon, as one of Sam Bell's WY-esque bosses.

 

[dark_b]

happy to see that they are building big sets.

 

[Doctor Jones]

Sounds good. And I'm glad to hear about the aliens.

 

[Rock Sexton]

WTF is going on? I thought this film was supposed to be about the Space Jockey and now I'm reading descriptions about the aliens having their familiar look.

Lame. Not excited anymore.

[Aesop Rocks]

I ****ing hope so. a Captain Dallas from Alien role just screams Pearce.

 

[Crockett]

I hope so too, but I won't get my hopes high.

 

[spidey-dude]

i used to work and pinewood and former colleagues have confirmed seeing the alien costumes around the lots - just thought I would share

due to dissertation i havent been able to spare enough time to go along for a look myself

 

[DACrowe]

This is exciting. I don't know if there will be a Capt. Dallas role as these are well financed scientists and not space truckers. I hope it's not a clone of Alien, but a mind-bending original sci-fi epic that is set in the Alien universe. Anyway, that's what I'd like to see.

 

[Doctor Jones]

Pearce in this movie? **** yes.

 

[Nightmare]

Here's another:

I like that.

 

[Spider-ManHero12]

I'm so excited for this!

 

[CelticPredator]

I hate those posters. Because it's a stupid fake picture. But in theory, they're ok.

Updated : I’ve gotten two more corroborating emails saying that yes Guy Pearce is in the flick.

 

[CelticPredator]

Ahhhh! Holy ****! I'm so excited! Finally. This series is getting some redemption.
