Want another Prometheus behind the scenes? well here you go

OK Ridley I get it, you`re proud of this movie and you and the studios have an agenda
and are pushing it hard. I just hope by the time it comes out we haven`t seen everything worth seeing about this film. That being said here is some more behind the scenes with Ridley Scott and some of the actors from the film, I will say that the sets look amazing and the idea behind this film is grand. I`m really hoping the next featurette won`t be a behind the scenes look at the catering of Prometheus, or an in depth look at the buses and cars used to take the actors to and from their hotels. Don`t ruin this Mr Scott, balls in your court, amaze me.

The space jockey secure in this flight suit (oops hope
thats not a spoiler for you) at a control station

                                A holographic image of the space jockey (again suited up)

                                    I guarantee this cute little guy will end up being trouble

                                                   Probably not a manufacturer`s defect

                                That`s right, bring the him back to the ship, you`ll be sorry!

                                                 I bet he`s going to need a bigger gun

                  My guess is this will be the best look we get at the bad critter before the movie opens
