What was your favorite scene from Prometheus and why? This can include deleted scenes for those who have the Blu-Ray or who saw them online. Let the community know what scenes you particularly liked from Prometheus! For me, I really liked the scenes that showed the Prometheus ship, it's a magnificent design and I just really liked the effects used for it. [center][url=http://www.prometheus-movie.com/gallery/view/img/366][img]http://www.prometheus-movie.com/media/prometheusT_screencap20.jpg[/img][/url][/center] But my favorite scene was probably the Trilobite vs. Engineer scene and the scene where the Engineer turns on Ford, David, Weyland and Shaw. Oh, and yes I really liked the Deacon birth scene at the end, I thought it was great.

My favorite scene was that bit at the end where the words scrolled.

There are many, but I would have to say, just before David awakens the sleeping Engineer.

Ha you could not have asked a harder question! Every single scene was beautiful in some way. Visually, Prometheus took me back to the great British sci fi of the 1960's and 1970's, including The Prisoner and the productions of Gerry Anderson, but with a fantastic hyper reality, that Ridley Scott otherness. And of course don't forget 2001, a source of some disagreement here, I know. I can't choose! Truly almost every frame contained some wonder. The huge pop soundtrack, the Cecil B Demille dialog, the acid trip story arc. For me, my favorite shot of the Prometheus is the long shot when the RT01 emerges from the dock fir the furst time and it's crouched on its massive thrusters with the mountains behind it. Or how about the skull on the dome when the storm is coming? And the Trilobite scene, yes, brilliantly realized, a classic!

By far, the Engineer dummying everyone, and taking off. The way he interacted with the controls. Taking a big breath before the mask goes over his face. The sound effects of the ship. The music. Oh, my! And of course, the momentus of the scene gets ruined in an instant. Once Janek pulls his "HAAAND-JOOOOOOB" ... Freakin' pathetic... I've got my fingers crossed for Paradise. I hope it won't dun-goof like Prometheus.

For me its the scene where the chair comes up, and the deacon scene :)

I like the Engineer scenes, especially when he speaks and fights the trilobite :3 [img=100x100]http://www.prometheus-movie.com/media/Engineer_fighting_Trilobite.jpg[/img][img=100x100]http://www.prometheus-movie.com/media/engineer_speaks_2.jpg[/img] Another one is when Shaw slaps the crap out of Holloway.

(1) Peter Weyland at TED 2023. Weyland's speech is impressive and threatening. (Deleted scene) See: [url=http://www.quotefully.com/movie/Prometheus/Peter+Weyland]Weyland Quotes[/url] (2) landing, launch of the rovers to the route to the point of contact and planet surroundings. (3) The fight between Shaw and the Engineer, especially the cut scene, Ian White gives a magistral touch in these final shots, in using light ranges.

Almost EVERY SCENE was Ridley-gorgeous. A wonderful art exercise. David was the main focus of the film, and the screen lit up whenever he was on it. And JANEK, apart from that weird kamikaze. But that's okay, because Janek, and the rest of his crew were Nexus 7. Fave scene? The launching of the 'space jockey' seat; that unravelling. And I liked David playing flute and pressing white jelly buttons. That was super-camp.

David in the beginning, Shaw in the Med Pod and The Deacon.

The opener/prologue for it's stunning visuals. The Engineers running hologram, the starmap hologram with David listening to/watching the Engineers. Yeah the 'jockey' chair rising up made my nerve endings tingle!

The scenes that made sense

the hologram of the running engineers, then the last one turning to see what was behind him that told the whole story of what happend there. The chair coming up out of the ground too....that was fantastic.

Where the engineer chair rises... I almost fainted. :-)

I liked the scene when David spoke to Holloway. I know David has no feelings but i'm starting to believe he is understanding them more than we realise.

[b]I loved the first TRAILER (!YEAH!) for Prometheus, where these deep contrabass and these hits and this "vibrato synthesizersound" appear and freezed my blood in the venes... Real masterpiece. - and it made us H.U.N.G.R.Y for more. But it was not delivered, unfortunatelly...[/b] The movie itself then was dumb, boring, disappointing most of the time. Dont know if it was expectations, but maybe this is a "love it or hate it"-movie. Hopefully prometheus2 will rock. Anyway, better prometheus then many many other so called sci-fi movies nowadays. I never watched Transformers. Battleship and Skyline was real crap.

Any scene that shows the Prometheus in flight and especially the landing scene watched on the IMAX screne!!! I also liked the shadow falling across the landscape of the Engineers vessel and the movement of the Engineers ship at the start where it tilts and goes vertical moving the cloud at the same time. Also the Engineers chair rising up.

The opening sacrifice scene.

Good point about the trailer. The UK trailer was the best. The music and cut scenes they put in prompted so much interest and excitement. [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a9jRaa4Wkbk]Prometheus UK Trailer[/url]

Ma favorite is the introduction scene, with the beautiful landscapes, the shadow of the ship appearing and the engineer drinking the golden liquid. Also when David enters the control room and everything turns up, and he watches outside. And the surgery.

Noomi Rapace running around in her skimpy whites. oo-eer. Seriously though the film did pick up pace there, with some delicious self surgery and if you think carefully you can dismiss alot of critism with plot holes etc. Also I love the whole atmosphere and landscapes, beautifully realised. Watched it three times now on demand and to be honest gets better with every viewing. Lets save money from the avatar sequels and pump them in to more Prometheus's budgets. Then you can guarantee we will have no long winded love story or coming to terms with ones new abilities (urgh! boring) in our beloved proper thrilling sci-fi I so love it though how the love connection was moreless immediately severed in the nastiest way possible Mwohahahaha. That's what I'm talking about!!! Burn the sucker!!! AND THEN!! he comes back mutated causing more distruction...oh yeah!!! As long as the horror elements are still there, I'll be coming back for more. That's what us adults want, 15 certificated at least with dark/sinister and foreboding being the choice words/themes before pen hits paper

Five scenes yeah. First, David's life on the ship before anyone awakes. Fantastic. Second, when Shaw declares " This is what i choose to believe" in context with the star map and the engineers. Then cut to David's expression and the score. Brilliant. Third. The tussle between David and Vickers. "Try harder". Fourth. The dialogue between Vickers and Weyland. Excellent. Look for the extended bit. I think it should have been included in the final cut. And Fifth. The birth of the Deacon ( I am an Alien fan) :P

The opening was magnificent. The crash scene was stunning. The Deacon scene was a nerd-gasm.

The ending of the alien coming out of the engineer showing the creation of the monster icon of sci-fi films.
