Saw the movie again today. This time around .
my best guess was that it was Iceland.
Another question that was actually directly asked in the film: Is Vickers an android? There are certainly suggestions of such outside of the outright accusation, among them her being Weyland's "daughter." She was also able to throw David around fairly easily, which was a bit surprising.
I thought in particular that the CGI for the Engineers were crazy good - usually when a computer-generated character appears onscreen, I have to get past the "I'm watching a CGI character" feeling but these guys just looked so incredibly real.
I caught that too and almost took time to write it.On the second viewing, I would say it's pretty apparent that she isn't an android. Otherwise it would make little sense that she was in stasis for the duration of the trip or that she was exercising after the stasis, presumably to work 2.5 years of stillness out of her muscles and joints
One thing that bothered me is the unlikely coincidence that the ship just happens to choose the right place to come through the planets atmosphere to see the large line drawings in the valley that leads them to the alien lair and spaceship.

With that crap writer from Lost, anything couild happen. This certainly is no where near as well written as Blade Runner ( Philip K. Dick )
bonocomet said:I did have one big problem with it though, and I don't think I've seen anyone mention it here. Why oh why have a younger actor in old age makeup play that part? I don't get it.
