New Prometheus Poster

There’s a new official poster out for Ridley Scott’s Prometheus, this time it’s a proper movie poster with actual people and stuff going on, instead of the pretentiously ambiguous posters that are very popular these days. The poster shows Noomi Rapace and Charlize Theron, along with the other crews of Prometheus while their spacefriggin ship is exploding in the background.

Honestly, I’m glad they went with a poster this time, since I’m pretty much getting tired of all the viral things. It was intriguing at first, and was actually successful at piquing my curiosity, but after the next dozen or so viral attempts, along with the hundreds of rumors and speculation, I’m kind of tired of all the teases, and there’s nothing else I want from Prometheus except to watch the movie itself.

Fresh New Teaser Images From Prometheus

A new batch of teaser images has just been released for Ridley Scott's Alien sorta-prequel, Prometheus. This time, the images show the crew in their badass spacesuits, with Noomi Rapace looking apprehensive, about to enter the mysterious temple. Another one of the images features Rapace in front of what looks like the add-on controller for xBox's Steel Battalion. There's no doubt that the highlight of the bunch is the image of Rapace, Theron, and Fassbender goofing around.

Prometheus Gets an R Rating

Fans of the original chestbursting scene in Ridley Scott's Aliens will be glad to know that the sort-of-kinda prequel Prometheus has been given an R-Rating, which means there's room for gory-splattery scenes.

"I can assure the fans absolutely they can take it that the film will not be compromised either way," said Fox CEO Tom Rothman last month. "So if that means that the film is R, then it’ll be an R. If it’s PG-13, then it’ll be a PG-13. But it will not be compromised."

The new R-stub on Prometheus lends credibility to Fox's promise, and the trailers seem to show that the movie probably needs an R in order to tell the story in all its gory details. Prometheus will open in the UK on 1 June 2012.
