I can probably say I was the first to figure it out. My friend of mine told me that when Microsoft Gaming Studioes released a quote with Cortana saying something about the Prometheus Project, I found the trailer for the movie left clues. There was nothing specific in Cortana's quote, therefore giving famous well-known director, Ridley Scott, who directed the Transformers Trilogy, and Battleship, with well-known actor, Liam Neeson, the imaginative freedom to direct and create his ideas into what has now become the movie called "Prometheus".
In the beginning of the trailer, when they show one of the ancient civilization's king looking at his hand, and his veigns get dark and start to move, that was one clue that me and my friend figured out. Another clue is the color of the pods in the crescent-shaped ship, along with the ceiling's color and movement. The other clue is the man holding the small bit of flesh on the tip of his forefinger, when he says "Big things have small beginnings" near the end of the Prometheus trailer. The last clue is when almost at the end of the trailer, the trooper yells "GET IT OUT!!!".
All of this led to my most certain and probable conclusion of what this may and MIGHT be the beginning of: The Halo movie series. Why? The color of the pods, the king's veigns, the small bit of flesh, and the trooper yelling "get it out". The pods were Flood pods. You can easily see the resemblance between Halo 3's Flood pods, and the pods in the movie trailer. In one of the terminals in the Halo: Anniversary game, The veigns of the Elite start to move and change color; same deal with the king. In another terminal, the small bit of flesh is 30x smaller than 343 Guilty Spark in the game as well. That small bit of flesh happens to be a Flood Spore. AND finally, the quote: "get it out". In the first Halo game, the VERY first thing you hear from an infected marine, while still alive, is "GET IT OOUUT!!!". IN the current trailer, that is the one thing you would hear from a real infected marine (though might be true).
We are probably now entering a new era of movie technology for Sci-Fi movies EVER made, thanks to Ridley Scott. IF what my conclusion says is true, and it is CLOSE to what Ridley Scott has planned for us, Halo Fans, we are most likely to have a world-wide sensation of the very first movie in the Halo series, Prometheus. The one thing that will determine the Halo movie's greatness, is Ridley Scott's excellent choosing of actors, actresses, and for the MAIN characters: Cpt. Jacob Keyes, Seargant-Major Johnson, and, of course, Cortana, the well-known ship-board AI for the Pillar of Autumn. Currently, I do not know whether or not this IS accurate. BUT, Microsoft Gaming Studios, having fired Peter Jackson for his poor choice of actors and deliberately refusing to accept Microsoft Gaming Studio's veto for his choice of actors, they gave Ridley Scott his first chance for bringing his well-known excellence in technology for the nation-wide sensation, the Transformers Trilogy, and Battleship. Some of you may agree, some of you may not. AS THE TITLE SAYS, THIS IS ONLY A DAMN THEORY. I DID NOT SAY THIS IS ACCURATE. iM POSTING SIMILARITIES THAT MAY EXIST OR NOT!!! DO NOT RAMPAGE ABOUT ME SAYING "IT'S NOT TRUE, IT'S NOT TRUE, IT'S NOT TRUE!!!".
Huh ...
It's supposed to be a 'prequil' [sort of] to Alien... set in the same 'history'.... a back-story to the 'Space Jockey' in the first Alien movie....
This is what I've heard.
EDIT: (either way I'm pretty stoked about the movie!)
The person responsible for this post needs to stop drinking first thing in the morning when they get up. Ridley Scott has never had any association with the Transformer trilogy or with Liam Nielson. The only other possibility is that they are trying to be funny, but nobody else thinks so.
All theories have no evidence? You should lrn2science sometime.
+1
I would say however, that it is quite possible there is some type of "body snatcher element" to the big bad meanies in prometheus. (as opposed to just more Xenomorphs)
I'm thinking Ridley Scott would have a screaming tirade if he'd been asked to make a Halo movie and disguise it as a prequel to one of his original and highly recognized films.
I'm also betting he's never played Halo.
Wouldn't lay money on that one....stranger things have happened...
So the OP saw the Prometheus trailer and deducted from it, its going to be based off HALO? Despite the Ridley Scott directing it (not Uwe Boll), despite the same visual effect to the Prometheus "headline" as in the Alien, despite the "space jockey" footage, shown in the trailer, despite all the talk about Prometheus being connected to Alien long before the trailer was even released?
I'll answer your quote with another quote.
Science is THEORY! NOT fact. If I based my theory off of factual evidence, I would not have posted it. But when it's really based off of Alien, then okay, I got my sources messed up, and this theory is crap. But it's just my own opinion, so...what're you gonna do about it? You can't do SHIT just cause it's an opinion.
Excuse moi, SIR, but I don't drink. so, *ahem* this post is irrelevant. Hate to burst your bubble.
There are options....
People can point and laugh....
Recommend psychiatric treatment.....
Ignore it all and walk away....
Lots of choices....
Me, I'll just wait for the Movie....
*Quoting Jafo* It's just my own opinion, so...what're you gonna do about it? Lots of choices.... I'll just wait for the Movie.... *Quote*
that and the guy posting the assumption I was drunk OBVIOUSLY mispelled LIAM NEESON'S NAME!!!!!
Ridley Scott had nothing to do with Transformers or Battleship. This movie is a prequel to his classic 1979 movie Alien. It has nothing to do with Halo.
Kids, don't do drugs.
....
You can't do SHIT just cause it's an opinion.
Theories are based on facts, and opinions are not theories.
Lol, Iceboy. I'd give you karma but I don't have the buttons since the forum maintenance.
What him said^^^
The karma should be mine...same answer just 3 days sooner....
another thing...DUMBASS, I don't do drugs. so what the hell are these old workaholic punk-ass peeps playing on Sins doing saying other peeps are doing DRUGS and DRINKING ALCOHOL?!!
also, FYI, SOMEONE TELL ME: in the previews, what Alien movie includes the VEIGNS moving and getting darker? Did ANY of the Alien movies include THAT?! another thing: SOMEONE TELL ME, is the small bit of flesh I mentioned the Alien from ANY of the movies?! SOMEONE ON HERE, tell me THAT. Cause I want to SEE someone PROVE that it's a predecessor to the Alien movies. someone TELL me THAT.
OK, 2 things....
Let's NOT call people 'DUMBASS' or your time on these forums will be short....
Re back-story to the movie.... http://www.prometheus-movie.com/articles/5
