😂 @ 2:47 I wont spoil it to anyone. Just watch the video.

Nice find. So we should find out WHO and WHY.

It seems sort of obvious to me, the Engineers created them to undo planets that they seeded perhaps for some religious sacrament.

But perhaps it's not so obvious. We shall see...

I'm liking Waterston the more I see of her in interviews...

Holy Space Christ, can we just skip to May already...?

Edit:

This is pretty hilarious... 😂

Read that this movie will be getting a VR game.

Won't that require some sort of fancy Playstation VR gaming system?

I'm still on the fence about McBride. Sometimes I find him entertaining, but other times he is a bit much.

I'm actually not particularly familiar with a lot of stuff he's done, but I would expect him to be pretty subdued for a role like this. I can see it working. Now, James Franco is another story. He doesn't really seem right at all for this. : /

Franco can be good if he isn't with his Rogen and Co. crew. I thought that he was wasn't bad in 11.22.63, though I did feel like some of the other performances out-shined his. The problem with him is that he seems to phone it in a lot.

Or one of the many other various VR Machines

the Playstation VR has the cheaper prince out of all of them anyway.

eh.. I was kind of excited for this until I learned it has James Franco in it...that and Ripley seems to be getting all with the displaying his sex fetishes on the screen and claiming it to be art.

Oh well your lose, If the game ends up being good.

Good point, Kaz. Good point indeed.

Looks like a remake of the original alien. If I see the trailer... I've seen all that before... exploring a spaceship on a planet, eggs, eggs hatch, face hugger comes out, alien comes out on space ship, hassle over quarantine rules, running through hallways, spaceship blows up and a robot... Is this all they could come up with?

Member nostalgia? It's what's in now. It's about milking the series. Hopefully they still explore some of the Engineers in this one too, or else I'm gonna be pretty annoyed.

Well they're supposedly going back to the planet that was in Prometheus to find out what the **** happen.

And... we get the same ole story we've had a couple of times before. How... exciting.

It all looks darn good again. Ridley is a master in perfect picture. But it has been a while since he made a really, really good story in film. The Martian was okay, but Gladiator was his last really great film.

My understanding was that it's a colonization ship and they arrive at the Engineer homeworld (not the same planet in Prometheus).

The planet from Prometheus definitely wasn't one where they could walk around without a full suit. The only place they could was inside of the Engineer complex. Seems to be a different setting.

Yeah, so are they walking around without suits in the trailer?

and who cares.....this movie might be going through the same motions again but its more to do with how its handled.

Going by what the black goo does in the recent comics, It changes the atmosphere of planets.
