The military ship should have been more advanced probably.

all military stuff is built with the " cheapest " price, Airforce 1 is still run on XP systems, as well as Marine 1.

i can see the tech of the science ship being higher as science would mroe likely be privatized and what goes on the ship would be in the control of the scientists. could easily say that an upgraded system is needed to get more accurate results for an experiment

It's a non-official poster made by Midnight Marauder (who is a professional graphic designer).

You can find more in the same style here, and a spelling corrected version of the one above.

Too bad, but great design, kudos to the artist. Reminded me of a Kubrick or Tarkovsky movie.

Edit: Holly hell! This guys should be hired by a major Hollywood design powerhouse ASAP.

Regarding the David clip, since I haven't commented earlier -- such a layered performance. Fassbender's the ****.

Fassbender it's Hollywood next great actor. Have you seen Shame?

Hell, sometimes he acts like a young Marlon Brando. That good.

^ Thanks for the updates and tidbits, but I'm drawing the line with the latest trailer. Wish I actually didn't watch that one either, I've been hyping this up so much it'll be hard to meet the expectations, not to mention each trailer showed more and more stuff. At this point, the only thing they haven't done is show the xenomorph, and contrast that with the first teasers when no one was even sure if it was a proper Alien prequel.

Still, really looking forward to checking this out.

Trailers are a mixed bag. I've seen some where some content in them didn't even appear in the movie. You never really know and I think Ridley Scott + Alien precursor backstory is good enough to carry the hype.

How is this a prequel to Aliens?

Not technically a prequel (maybe a spiritual one), but they talk about the space jockeys (the large being sitting in the chair in the derelict spaceship in Alien) and their plans to conquer the universe.

I'd say the story is set in the Alien Universe, but it's before Aliens existed.

Same. I'm thinking this movie will have the android that we hear about in the first Alien. The reason why everyone distrust androids so much will hopefully be revealed :)

I think Alien and the small conversation Bishop had in Aliens sure explains why everyone distrusts Androids so much in the Alien universe :) I'm hoping for more of the same from our friend David in Prometheus :D

Stay connected affordably in 120+ countries/regions with your own lifetime eSIM! An eSIM is a digital SIM card. It's basically just mobile data. Once it's activated on your device, it can connect you to data networks in other countries – giving you an internet connection with NO roaming charges. With aloSIM, you can load prepaid eSIM data packages onto your phone, tablet, or computer. Your lifetime eSIM never expires, so it's yours forever and there are never any monthly charges. You'll get $50 in eSIM data credit, which is almost always enough to cover all your data roaming needs for a full year. But if you run out of data, you can always top up your lifetime eSIM and stay connected internationally. Pay $24.97 for a lifetime eSIM with $50 in travel data credit Use your eSIM to join data networks in 120+ countries Install your lifetime eSIM on a compatible device to roam on local data networks Your lifetime eSIM never expires, and can be topped up with more data anytime Many data packages cost as little as $4.50 and last 7 days. Depending on the package you choose, the length of time varies. Good to know Length of access: lifetime For NEW customers only Instant digital redemption Once you add your $50 credit to your aloSim account you have up to 12-months to use it — after that your credit will expire When you pay for a data plan you also get a free phone number (via Hushed) for the same duration of your plan that was purchased - IE 7 day eSim plan gives you a free 7-day phone number Purchased coupon must be redeemed and used within 12 months This deal is not stackable (one offer per aloSIM account) A $4.50 data package will last 7 days The data DOES expire, and you WILL NOT have any leftover data for your next trip unless it takes place within the validity period. While the eSIM never expires, the actual data package is only valid for the length of time stated at purchase (i.e. seven days after activation, 30 days after activation, etc.) So if you buy a seven-day package and only use a tiny bit, that package is still going to expire after seven days.

      WordArt was cool. We now have color fonts as a substitute although Word only supports COLRv0 and COLRv1 (Fraud OS 11 only). The OpenType SVG color font format needs to be supported by Office. Adobe's apps support it
