Prometheus – Special Edition

I have to say despite all the negative reviews, I was blown away by the original version of prometheus, maybe it was the sense of scale on the big screen or having low expectations. On a second viewing at home after watching the many trailers and deleted / alternate scenes I began to realise the theatrical release is actually a chopped up mess made without a clear direction.

Agent 9 has clearly put a lot of hard work into making this film as close to what's think was the original intention as possible and after watching this edit I felt as blown away as I did after my first ever viewing.

This will replace my bluray version. Which now feels like an inferior edit.

I liked Agents 9's take on Prometheus. The TED Talk intro is always a welcome addition to any Prometheus Edit. The faster paced story line, the removal of unneeded, unnecessary and unwanted secondary character development is a relief.

I have a difficult time in coming up with anything negative to say about this Edit. My biggest complaint as with other edits of Prometheus really isn't the Fan Editors fault. I really really hate that so many characters are introduced so late in the film. The Theatrical Cut suffered from this also. So again I can't really blame Agent 9.

Agent 9 you created a great Fan Edit and this version has made it's way into my Prometheus Blu-Ray Amaray for many more viewings.

i hadnt gotten around to watching the bluray when i saw this fanedit on fanedit.org

maybe it was the 3D, but i couldnt tell any deleted scene from the rest of the movie
basically to me, this IS the movie...and it is something else, i will tell you

the only part i could tell is the beginning sequence seemed like added 3D, but thats alright...was well done

this is a true emotional ride, and seemed like a real Alien movie to me :-)

Congrats to the faneditor, and keep up the good work!

P.S. that list of cuts/additions at the end was mind-boggling...no idea how you guys do this :D

This edit is great stuff... it takes a movie that I was looking forward to so much and delivers the satisfaction I should have felt when I saw the theatrical cut in the cinema! This is now my go to copy and my blu-ray will forever be gathering dust!

Masterful editing, and brilliant integration of the deleted scenes. Prometheus now FEELS like a member in the Alien franchise which is what I was originally hoping for. Agent 9 has done a fantastic job!

I was astounded at how well this repaired some of the erratic narrative beats in the Theatrical cut, considering the limited amount of footage available. Highly enjoyable, though I agree with a couple of the other reviewers that Fifield and Milburn are cut a little more than may have been necessary.

Nevertheless, this edit is quite impressive - especially considering some of the unfinished effects shots were completed. This is one of the best versions of this film I have seen to date. Agent 9, I look forward to seeing more of your work.
