movie takes place is 2085 correct?
But some things don't add up...The Yutani Twitter feed just posted either today or yesterday that they were glad to see Weyland consolidate.

The woman in the message you get when you call ** WEYLAND mentions that she grew up on Kepler 22b. I'm looking to see if it is a legit lead or not

The video is in very low quality, I can't get proper shot. I did it the other day, but I was hoping this one wasn't as blurry.
I cropped the barcode and tilted it 90º counter-clockwise.
@SneakyMoustache: Could we assume David 8 is the "current" version, and therefore it's in 2073? Edit: Meaning, 2068 - 2073 = 5 years.
Also the attachment disappeared for some reason.
@AVITWeb: No, that's Alien, Prometheus happens a few years earlier.

So it would seem they are leading us back towards the David 8 video.
History of David:
I don't know if Peter Weyland (7 letters!) ever actually had kids, but he named the cybernetic individual David.
David - 01-07-2025
David 2 - 01-01-2028
David 3 - 06-30-2035
David 4 - 04-01-2042
David 5 - 07-07-2052
David 6 - 02-26-2062
David 7 - 07-06-2068
David 8 - ?
The differences between the years are as follows (in years)
1-2 = 3 years
2-3= 7 years
3-4= 7 years
4-5= 10 years
5-6= 10 years
6-7= 6 years
7-8= ?

I've been lurking for a couple days, and have been thinking about this passcode. Haven't figured anything out yet, but I will say that I was intrigued by the Weyland Industries timeline and that Peter Weyland's mother was a professor of comparative mythology. It got me thinking that maybe we need to look beyond the greek Prometheus myth to similar "gift giver" stories in other cultures. I tried a Sumerian god traditionally seen as an analogue of Prometheus, Enki (who also happens to be the patron god of Eridu), as a password but no luck. However, they obviously thought this through.
I think it's quite strange that Prometheus and Enki are related archetypal myths, and that Enki just happens to be the patron god of Eridu. The plot thickens.

Just a little fun fact; Ripley in Alien Resurrection had a tattoo '8', since she was the 8th clone and all.

Yeah also those yellow dots on the wheel that starts turning look like they could mean something, do they match up with the pictogram in any way? Incidentally, UKPrometheus just tweeted that David8 video again as well.

Has anyone tried to dial **David8 or **245409? I would try but you can't dial any of these numbers from Canada...

Alright, it's the same video we're all familiar with. However, maybe from here we could get a clearer (or at least bigger) screenshot of the barcode in the bag.
Just a thought: Did any of you realize that the "8" at the end of the video, above David's signature, is upside down? I don't think it means anything special (and it's hard to tell right now), but I think it's curious.

Here's the video you get from calling **Weyland (**9395263)
@PrometheusMovie: "Have you dialed **WEYLAND yet?"
They're messing with our heads, I can confirm it now.
ARRG. I was wondering if this worked with **eridu somebody said that it wasn't enough numbers but **movie had the same amount
seriously now could someone in the US try this and put me out of my misery?
The **Eridu doesn't work. It just sent me back to Verizon.
I did however call **Weyland and listened to the whole message. The operator says you can check out investment opportunities by going to Weyland Industries, but then I cannot make out what she says next as it cuts out and distorts.
Is it possible for anyone to get that recording so we can dissect it?
I can download a call recorder.
If you do it on a cellphone you get a text with a link on it. the link takes you to a sneak peek of the module 2
