As you said, it's got that great vintage scifi feel to it which I really dig. As far as, let's try to cater to the action loving crowd, this is really nice and dare I say classy.

You mean the movie that has trailers that have the Inception Horn (or Reaper Farts for those exposed to ME3). Also, I'm fairly certain the exploding ships occurs in the trailer, so it's not that much of a spoiler.

Yeah, the ship explosion was in the first trailer/teaser, not much of a spoiler.

PriorMarcus posted:I think you mean the sound effect used in the Alien and Aliens trailers when they were first released. The Alien siren sound was used in the original trailer, but the heavy horn blasts have probably been around forever (pretty sure they weren't in the original Alien trailer). Either way the evolution of the 'horn blast' has reached it's pinnacle with the blast + siren combo in the Prometheus trailer. It's the best. e: and the blast is actually done by low strings in the Prometheus trailer. Lizard Combatant fucked around with this message at 16:58 on May 17, 2012 |

Is there a way to buy large sized posters of those (or other) book covers? There is a used bookstore near me that has movie size posters of some famous book covers but the staff has no idea where they came from.

I honestly can't remember whether that happened in Solar Lottery or not. I don't want to rule it out because I'm sure there was a chase scene on an asteroid/moon or something like that.

I want to say that someone mentioned in a different thread that the authors of the books had pretty much no say on the cover art of their books. Pretty much the publisher would tell you what the cover was going to look like, no matter how non-sensical it may be.
