This past Sunday a leaked copy of the
Prometheus trailer found its way online. The overall opinion was actually quite positive even though the footage was mirrored, and grainy at best. Fans seemed to look past the low resolution and were able to appreciate the feeling that they were watching a kissing cousin of Ridley Scott's original
Alien.

About the Prometheus Trailer Leaking Online
"I heard some of it leaked, which wasn't so good. That's not fair. It's heartbreakingly unfair, because ... the quality of the visuals is as spectacularly beautiful, shot in 3-D compositionally the way only a master could do it. For some early, early, early, early half-baked, half-assed test to leak, it's so unfair."
"I will promise you this: When that material is ready and it comes out, you should go see it in 3-D on a screen. It will deliver."
Is Prometheus a Prequel to Alien?
"I suppose if you want to definitionally be that literal, but it does it a great disservice. I will tell you, here's the way to think about it. If you looked at the whole movie, 95 percent of it is entirely unto itself," Rothman said. "Ridley said it right: If you're a fan and you look closely, you'll spot strands of DNA."
"I'll tell you the great thing: It's way bigger than that. The ideas are way bigger, way more original and — it's a scary word — way more profound."
