Deleted scenes from Prometheus

We’ve heard all about the Blu-Ray release of The Avengers, now it’s hype time for that other big summer movie, Prometheus. It hits DVD October 11th, and LatinoReview (via PrometheusNews) has a cut of some of the deleted scenes. If you haven’t seen it yet, you can see what all the fuss was about over Idris Elba’s Southern accent. Worse than Keanu’s British? Than Connery’s Irish? Than Snow’s Jamaican? You decide. There’s also quite a bit more of Charlize Theron’s Miss Vickers, who I can only assume was an attempt to test out the merits of the Supreme Court’s corporations-are-people decision. “I minimize risk, and maximize profits, you see! It is my only personality trait!”

I guess what I’m saying is, I really wish there was a rom-com subplot where she and free-spirit Elba fall in love where he throws her space Blackberry in the ocean to teach her a valuable lesson about not being such a workaholic. “My whole life was in there!” “No, darling. Your whole life is out here. With me. Living in the moment.” (*montage set to Coldplay*)

Alien planet infested with giant snakes? Eh, just take your helmet off, it’s probably cool.

SPOILER ALERT: No dong shots. ;-(
