Prometheus is gonna be awesome.

YOU GUYS.

I’m so into the movie Prometheus right now and it’s not even out yet! I know I’ve already posted the trailer, but HERE IS ANOTHER ONE:

Pretty cool, right? Well, what’s even more interesting is that the makers of Prometheus are realeasing a series of videos intoducing characters and concepts from the upcoming film. Is this supposed to make people more excited about the film? Because if so it’s working on me. Here are two of them below:

What really fascinates me about these two clips is the presence of recognizable, modern day brands and companies in this fictional, futristic world. Yeah, okay, so it’s a big marketing campaign or whatever. While that’s certainly true, I also think that seeing a TED talk and a robot powered by Verizon in this film makes it seem  so plausible. Will we one day live in a world where robots are indistinguishable from people and the human race views itself as possessing god-like powers? Maybe!

Prometheus

Look at this trailer. 

It’s directed by Ridley Scott (Blade Runner). It stars Noomi Rapace (the Swedish Girl With The Dragon Tattoo and Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows) Michael Fassbender (X-Men: First Class, Inglourious Basterds) and Charlize Theron (Monster, The Road). And it’s a thriller that takes place in space. I don’t know if “Space Thriller” is a genre, but if it is it’s one of my favorites. Put it in space and I wanna watch it. 2001: A Space Odyssey, Sunshine, The Season of Passage, Trigun and Cowboy Beebop are some great examples of this weird genre.

So, yeah, I’m excited!
