And Aliens. DID I SEE A POWER LOADER NEAR THE END?!

There is a tie-in website for a fake company. (I saw this on Bleeding Cool) One of the tabs on the website is labeled "products" and it features the power loader.

It's funny because the trailer made me think of Alien 3, since they were trying to remake Alien in a way. They tried to get back to the suspense thriller, just having one alien and so on. And even Fincher says he didn't like the final product.

This seems to go back to that original, but does so in completely different way. I hope Scott pulls it off.

I remember reading interviews with Weaver during the promotions for the third and fourth films and she would only do them if she was allowed to have a certain amount of creative control. I remember her 'no guns' rule. There were others. I've always blamed her for them, really.

What "no guns' rule?

The studio wouldn't do a third movie without Weaver and she wanted a certain amount of creative control. Its been years since I've read the interviews, but I remember her talking about the creative direction of the third movie and her role in it. One thing I remember is that she was very proud of the fact that there were no guns on the the prison planet. She hadn't wanted any. There may have been more-probably was--but that's all I recall right now.

I don't know if this has been mentioned in any of the Prometheus threads yet, but it's really cool that Scott has continued the android naming scheme used in the Alien-movies.
