Some threads here made mention of a new trailer being seen, so I found a YouTube upload of it! It is only 1:26, which doesn't match with the trailer debuting with Logan (supposed to be 2:30 I believe), but it is AWESOME.

Not the greatest quality here, but still very eventful. Lots of looks at the creatures and some interesting environments/rooms/caves/whatever.

 

So I absolutely loved the trailer for the action, fright, and amazing looking sets, but I am sort of conflicted on seeing the Xenomorph in it's entirety. 

I think it looked GREAT and it is awesome that Sir Ridley can make an Alien film with an Alien that can actually move around. I know part of the charm and fright of the first one comes from not having that, but still, this is good!It's just that it always seems to kind of backfire when sequels and prequels bring the enemy out of the shadows too early. Because now, even if the Aliens don't come out to play until later in the film, we have already seen it in action, so I think it will at least take a tiny bit of steam out of the reveal while watching the film the first time. 

But this is going ot be a fun trailer to breakdown when it is released in HD! Soooo many juicy sets and events! It is just suuuuuper fast pace wise. Obviously, so we don't see too much too easily, but yeah. This is a GREAT trailer I think

That IS the last half of the trailer I saw today. The most "Alien" part. The first half is more "Promethean", shall we say.

 

Gonna be one hell of a movie...

@cuponator hope I didn't mislead you...by "Promethean" I guess I meant more of the "calm before the storm while we explore this place that looks so amazing" part...

@dk good call. Yes, you do. 

And I think this "leak" was done on purpose. Carefully calculated to stir up the net with just this sort of discussion and get people even more riled up than they would've been. Totally planned.

@Starlogger   I think you're right, I didn't watch it cause I'm the kind of person who wants to watch stuff when it's officially released out of respect for the filmmakers and the studio, I have to admit I was looking at all the screenshots people were posting and man does this trailer look amazing. But I agree with you, after I saw your post here I thought about it and I think you are dead on. They wanted to gauge the kind of reaction it got from the fan base, well planned indeed.

@Dr. Yeah, I mean why else would they show 15 minute clips to the press months before the release? Because they'll write about it and create interest. Marketing people aren't stupid. They know what works and what doesn't (most of the time)...well, at least Fox Marketing knows what works (most of the time, lol).

Yeah, sorry guys not quick enough haha. I actually saw Chris tell everyone that fox asked us to stop spreading and asked him to close the topic or something anyway haha. He didn't need to apparently. 

 

And @Starlogger, that's what basically thought you meant, so it works out haha

And if you guys are right about Fox just trying to rile up some interest, then that is pretty genius on their part. It friggin worked!
