Okay folks,with the weekend full of Avengers news and reviews over and reports of its ever-growing box office success, Ridley Scott's Prometheus has come out fighting again with a new international trailer packed to ceiling with new footage that will blow everyone's minds and get the Alien prequel/not prequel/ sort of prequel excitement ramped up to 11. In the trailer we are offered up a ton of interesting new shots. There's a new species slithering about and a connection made to the worm tail sliding into a spacesuit in previous trailers, holograms of multiple Space Jockey's running around, exploding eggs shapes (or is that the Space Jockey head/helmet?), really visually striking melting space helmets and if you look really closely a few confirmations about which crew members are up for some space maniac transformations. On top of that 20th Century Fox or indeed Ridley Scott himself seems to have blurred the creature removed from Shaw (presumably her chest or stomach) while in the see-through medical pod, like they don't want us to see it... interesting. Here it is in full glory: http://youtu.be/1byZkbNB3Jw I don't know about you guys but at this point every day that I haven't seen Prometheus feels like a waste of a day and the excitement building from mere seconds of new footage just makes the wait to June feel like we're waiting for the greatest film ever to arrive. So what do you guys think of this new international trailer? What are your current feelings on where Prometheus will place in the years box office? And have you been this excited about a prequel since Star Wars? I know I haven't. Arrrggghhh we've still got all of May to go yet!
