Quote:
The fire that danced at the end of that match was a gift from the Titan Prometheus. A gift that he stole from the gods and when Prometheus was caught and brought to justice for his theft, the gods; well you might say they overacted a little. The poor man was tied to a rock as an eagle ripped through his belly and eat his liver over and over, day after day and although the night. All because he gave us fire.



The film seems to follow this quote practically to the word

The gift of fire - Prometheus team sent to retrieve the 'Fire' from the gods and to return it back to the people of earth.

Stealing the fire - Prometheus lands on this planet, and from the trailer, David takes something back to the ship, alien life form, dna etc.

Caught and brought to justice - So as seen throughout the trailers the spacejockey is seen chasing down members of the crew and does something to Shaw.

Tied to a rock and and eagle ripped through it's belly - As from trailers and screen caps, shaw is strapped to the table and gives birth to something via a c section, is this the eagle ripping through the belly?

Make sense?

Hi all,

Just a quick note that may prove interesting.

The https://www.weylandindustries.com/ site has just gone down.

Code:
Error 324 (net::ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE): The server closed the connection without sending any data.


I have tried to ping it (results attached) but it is definitely down...

Potential update, maybe?

EDIT: Error is now:

Code:
HTTP Error 503 (Service Unavailable): The server is currently unable to handle the request. This code indicates that this is a temporary condition and that the server will be up again after a delay.

Update to the site perhaps?

As long as the password has always been active I'm happy enough.

Yep, looks very down:

http://www.downforeveryoneorjustme.com/weylandindustries.com

Odd.

Edit: I refreshed the source code tab I had open and the error is:

Quote:
Error 139 (net::ERR_TEMPORARILY_THROTTLED): Requests to the server have been temporarily throttled.

Hopefully there is an update.

Hopefully it will provide a detail to allow us to narrow our search for the elusive password.

Some of the ones I have tried with case variations in both eridu and 245409 versions of the login are below:

NOTE: The cancer treatment ones were out of desperation as nothing else was working and the timeline said he cured cancer.

It was a stretch but was worth a try lol.

It's either the arrow or the rock where Prometheus was tied down what we might need to focus on. Peter Weyland is an arrogant fella and he doesn't seem adverse to stand against the Gods, metaphorical or not. Also nice to see some of you guys participated in the LOST ARG, I used to post here back then and there were plenty of awesome moments.

Anyway, since we've been finding a lot of clues regarding the number 7, guess what: Peter Weyland was born in October 1st 1990. A person born in October 1st belongs to the astrological sign Libra, which is the seventh zodiacal sign. Cool huh?

There certainly were and I'm hoping we can get near to that level with this one (I appreciate it won't be as good as it's a film not a TV series).

If it turns out he's the seventh son of the seventh son I'm outta this ARG.

Bad enough having LOST associations - I like answers, that's what the effort is for!

Weyland Industries is still down, but it's down with an HTTPS now - can't say I noticed it was SSL before.

Gliese 508 is in the Libra constellation, btw. Don't think it's that much to go on

EDIT: Sorry, I meant Gliese 581, of course.

The only link I can see between the image of the Pleiades posted by PrometheusUK and the trailer, is on the display during Shaw's dream. The Pleiades layout is mimicked there at 0.30 and at exactly the same moment she says, "It's inevitable."

Thought it might be something to do with the word 'inevitable'. I've tried looking for inevitable in Sumerian etc....

A thought.... It was mentioned that we should focus on who Guy Pearce is. In the movie, Guy Pearce plays Peter Weyland. The video we saw of Weyland takes place in 2023, which means that since Weyland was born in October of 1990, he would be 21 years old right now. Maybe we are supposed to find him.

on a side note, since the video takes place in 21 years from now, Weyland would be 42. 21/3=7.

Another nod to 7's

Weyland manufactures the first advanced android prototype model of its kind. He is affectionately called David, a name Sir Peter Weyland had initially reserved for his own human son.

The blinking light has already been figured out. It leads to this:
https://www.weylandindustries.com/6EQUJ5/

Does anyone know anything about the bird logo that shows up in the beginning of some of the trailers. I've always just ignored it as the studio logo or something, but I can't find who it belongs to.
