Synopsis: "February 28, 2023. After drinking a glass of whisky and readying himself, Peter Weyland steps out into Long Beach Arena, packed with thousands of people attending the annual TED conference. After narrating a scene from Lawrence of Arabia, in which Corporal Potter asks Lawrence about his habit of extinguishing matches with his bare fingers, Weyland goes on to explain the myth of the Titan Prometheus, who gave the secret of fire to mankind and was punished by the Gods as a result. Considering fire to be man's first invention, he goes on to list various other breakthroughs throughout the course of human history, including the wheel, gunpowder, the automobile, television, spacecraft, terraforming and the curing of most cancers, before concluding that mankind's technological prowess now makes them akin to gods. However, he laments that the almost limitless potential of the technologies humanity possesses is currently being squandered by overbearing rules and regulations. Finally, Weyland introduces himself to his audience, before promising, 'If you'll indulge me, I'd like to change the world.'" https://avp.fandom.com/wiki/TED_Conference,_2023 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TED_2023 https://www.imdb.com/title/tt5362760/ More: Studio Yutani https://www.youtube.com/@StudioYutani 'Prometheus transmedia campaign' (2019) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XqW4JgI4-Vw https://player.vimeo.com/video/102373214 Related: Ridley Scott (2012).
