Since the first teasers and trailers for Prometheus arrived I've been firmly in the YES camp. Take the implications of providing a practically Precambrian timeline for a seemingly familiar alien species, and add all the apocalypticism of a season of Buffy and you are left with me trying to preorder my tickets in March.
Nathaniel has pointed out that Ridley Scott, with his background as an art director, always delivers when it comes to the look of a film, so for a visual fetishist like me even his poor efforts have their appeal (Legend is a Sunday afternoon favorite).
I've been hoping that all the anticipation would galvanize some artists and designers out there, and I haven't been disappointed. Here are some intriguing creations I've spied in advance of the release.
