AdminEngineerOctober 09, 2012What 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.

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.

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.

Hands off!!! or Hands up!!!
well, my favorite scene is Prometheus crash with Engineer Ship

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.

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.
October 11, 2012
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
October 12, 2012
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.
October 11, 2012
The ending of the alien coming out of the engineer showing the creation of the monster icon of sci-fi films.
October 12, 2012
There are so many sequences that i love in the film. I suppose the scene depicting the sacrificial engineer (beginning of film) and the scene where the jockey-chair comes up out of the floor of the juggernaut and the engineer gets into the chair-suit are two of my very favorites (also, david inhabiting the prometheus while rest of crew was in cryostasis! just beautiful!).
October 12, 2012
My favorite scene is the killing of Weyland. It is a justice moment, that never happens in our historical moment. Persons that generates catastrophes (financial, military, ...) never are persecuted, while the thief of apples goes in jail. I think that an engineer, God, had his good reasons to do and we know it.

For me it's the character design of the egineer.

The engineer getting into the seat and the dramatic effect induced by that. The music in that scene was right on. The sounds of the juggernaut humming up and Shaw's running through the corridor trying to get out. All good stuff!

The med pod scene where Shaw performs the emergency c-section on herself. Medical related things have always intrigued me. Also the Trilobite scene at the end.
October 12, 2012
I like the scene when ...oh god there all freakin awesome! But I'd have to say that when the Deacon shows up sayin "This my house" is coooolll![img]http://outwardbounder.files.wordpress.com/2012/09/deacon.jpg[/img]
There is nothing in the Dessert,
and no man needs nothing

I really love the "cut" fight scene with Shaw & the engineer. To me it was believable the way that it was choreographed that she could have taken him on with that axe. The engineer seemed to enjoy playing with her like a cat does a mouse knowing that in the end they will win but what he doesn't know is she has a surprise waiting for him.....I would love to see the full sequence put back into a later edition. That's the only edited/cut scene I felt was worthy of leaving in out of the 4 disc Blu-ray set!!! Make it happen Mr. Scott!!! =)
Did I.Q.s just drop sharply while I was away??
October 12, 2012
Honestly, it's difficult to chose one scene. Number one would have to be the very end when the alien burst out of the engineer. But a close second was the alternate scene of when the missing crew member's camera was right outside and he had turned into more of an alien than a zombie like the original theatrical version had. Seeing him pounce instead of jumping was breathtaking. I have to admit I got a lot of goosebumps when watching it the first time and I can't wait for Paradise or the third one linking it to Alien.
October 12, 2012
The scenes where David watches and repeats Lawrence of Arabia. He actually watched my favourite scene from that movie, it gave me goosebumps.
