Fox exec on "Prometheus" leak

Tom Rothman, head of Fox Filmed Entertainment is not at all happy that someone managed to leak some incredibly low quality footage of the upcoming Ridley Scott blockbuster "Prometheus" over the Thanksgiving weekend. The so-called "trailer" which saw a few hours of life on the net before Fox managed to get it pulled offended Rothman not simply because it represented a breach in what had been air tight security surrounding the film but because the quality of the bootleg was so appalling. In his words "It's heartbreakingly unfair, because ... the quality of the visuals is as spectacularly beautiful, shot in 3-D compositionally the way only a master could do it," and the bootleg footage did not reflect that.
