The impending Blu-ray release of Prometheus is expected to finally answer some of the film’s lingering questions, among them, “Were there ever any more gross freaks in this thing?” The expected answer: yup! According to Cinefex (via) the disc’s bonus features will include a scene that reveals the ginger, punk geologist was once going to mutate into the above “digital character with elongated limbs and an engorged, transluscent head”–which, as best I can recall, is way grosser than the mutant freak that actually made it into the film. See those elongated limbs below, and then everything about Prometheus will suddenly make sense.

In the Alien series, androids have played the parts of both benevolent heroes and pompous, secretive assholes who need to be shoved into a wall and eventually decapitated. With this first clip from Prometheus that premiered on last night’s Tonight Show, it’s starting to look like Michael Fassbender’s David is probably going to fall into the latter camp. Have a look below, and stay tuned for Headlines.

Is there any moment in this film that is not super intense? Because at this point, the previews have set this up such that I’m going to pretty disappointed if there is a single line of dialogue not screamed or menacingly whispered over icy stares.

Another chapter of a viral campaign that has included staging a TED talk of the future and stuffing Michael Fassbender in a dry cleaning bag, here’s a Prometheus promo in which Noomi Rapace’s Dr. Elizabeth Shaw beseeches Peter Weyland to fund an outer space venture that, thanks to the trailers, we now know leads to a whole fucking lot of screaming.

With just Rapace’s monologue and some overlaid scanning graphics, this video is pretty tame compared to all the super-intense previews we’ve seen in the past, but if you add your own soundtrack of constant panicked bellowing, it does make it a little more intense, so keep that option open.

Finally, to know the experience of checking out Noomi Rapace while being a Terminator.

Here are a couple more Prometheus trailers, these offering some of the most revealing, compelling shots yet. Like the last trailer, they are super intense, and if you are functional, they will probably leave you really wanting to see Prometheus. They might also leave you wishing you had not spoiled so much of the movie by previewing and dissecting every bit of footage you could run past your skull. You have to decide if it’s worth sort of spoiling this stuff now, or if it’s better to hold out for longer shots of Leeloo with the Dragon Tattoo run around in her undies. This is one of those “first world problems” you’ve heard your internet chums meme about.

Those of you familiar with the Alien franchise will likely recognize the name “Weyland-Yutani.” Set up in the first film through logo only and implicitly referred to as “the company,” and later fleshed out some by Paul Reiser and co., Weyland-Yutani played the Alien series’ stock role as greedy corporate entity that values profit and alien egg acquisition over human life. (Reiser is the 1%, occupy planetoid LV-426, etc.) In Ridley Scott’s Alien sort-of-prequel, Prometheus, Guy Pearce plays Peter Weyland, head of a pre-Yutani-merger Weyland Corporation. So, as a viral stunt, here’s Pearce giving an in-character TED talk from the future, telling the titular story of Prometheus and describing his ambitions to create synthetic life. Compared to the usual TED talk, it comes across as pretty ominous. Weyland probably should have kept it a bit lighter by not saying man had become God, and maybe by wearing some casual jeans.
