Amazon.com are running a deal where the first 5000 customers to pre-order Prometheus on Blu-ray or Blu-ray 3D from yesterday will be eligible to receive a code (valid until August 31st) which can be redeemed for a ticket to see the movie at participating theaters in the US. Still not upgraded to a Blu-ray player? (seriously?!) Well, the deal isn't available for anyone who pre-orders the DVD unfortunately. Currently, there are no details on when the Blu-ray is released or what special features will be contained on the disc. Prometheus a fantastic film (my review will be up here on CBM later today) so this is a deal which is well worth taking advantage of.
In the distant future, two superpowers control Earth and fight each other for all the solar system's natural resources. When one side dispatches a team to a distant planet to terraform it for human colonization, the team discovers an indigenous race of bio-mechanoid killers. Ridley Scott, director of 'Alien' and 'Blade Runner,' returns to the genre he helped define. With PROMETHEUS, he creates a groundbreaking mythology, in which a team of explorers discover a clue to the origins of mankind on Earth, leading them on a thrilling journey to the darkest corners of the universe. There, they must fight a terrifying battle to save the future of the human race.
