Box Office Report: Prometheus Not Number 1?

‘Madagascar 3′ topped the weekend box office earning $60.4 million, with ‘Prometheus’ in second with $50 million.

Did you predict anything beating out the much anticipated ‘Prometheus’?

Well the third installment of the Dreamworks animated film titled ‘Europe’s Most Wanted’ did just that this weekend when family audiences turned out in droves at theaters worldwide.  It also brought in $75.5 million from 28 overseas territories in its first weekend including $16.5 million from Russia, $11 million from Brazil, and $10.5 million from China.

‘Prometheus’ added another $39.2 million overseas, on 8,263 screens in 50 markets. That gives it an overall international gross of $91.5 million in about two weeks.

PROMETHEUS: Third Viral Video Released

A third viral video has been released by FOX for Ridley Scott’s ‘PROMETHEUS’ featuring Noomi Rapace as Dr. Elizabeth Shaw.

It features a disturbing, yet fascinating, video message from Dr. Shaw to Peter Weyland (played by Guy Pearce) where Dr. Shaw is imploring Weyland Industries for financial assistance on her research and the services of the “Prometheus” spaceship. (Don’t worry, there are NO spoilers)

This video gives you a unique view into Dr. Shaw’s persistence of exploring the Alien planet because she believes it’s a place where answers to life’s biggest questions can be found.

For you ‘Alien’ fans out there, take notice of “Yutani” throughout the video.  Remember how it is Weyland-Yutani Corp in the previous movies? Are they suggesting this tech has yet to merge with Weyland? I guess we don’t know yet…

If you haven’t seen the previous 2 viral videos, you can watch them now as well!

‘PROMETHEUS’: New International Trailer & Images

Visionary filmmaker Ridley Scott returns to the genre he helped define by creating ‘Prometheus’, an original science fiction epic set in the most dangerous corners of the universe. Conceived as a prequel to Scott’s 1979 science fiction horror film ’Alien’, a separate story was developed that precedes the events of ‘Alien’, but which is not directly connected to the film.

The plot:

In the late 21st century, a star map is discovered within the imagery of Aztec, Mesopotamian and Magdalenian cultures. The crew of the spaceship Prometheus is sent on a scientific expedition to follow the map as part of a mission to find the origins of humanity. Exploring the advanced civilization of an extraterrestrial race, they soon face a threat to humanity’s very existence.

The film stars Noomi Rapace, Michael Fassbender, Guy Pearce, Idris Elba, Logan Marshall-Green and Charlize Theron.
