After making some enquiries, I have been told this is indeed connected to the home video release!
The original article:
It looks like Fox isn’t quite done with its epic viral campaign for Prometheus.
Now a new site has surfaced at www.whatis101112.com, featuring a brief video of Guy Pearce as Peter Weyland and references to Thus Spoke Zarathustra.
So what does it all mean? Well, Baring in mind the US date format, 101112 equates to the 11th October 2012. Some have speculated that this is a reference to the films home video release, but in the USA they traditionally happen on a Tuesday, and the 11th October 2012 is a Thursday.
Take a look at the Weyland Industries website, and you will see this entry on the Corporate Timeline page for the 11th October 2012:
Weyland Corporation is recognized as a legal entity and corporation under United States law and receives their Certificate of Incorporation from the Companies House in the United Kingdom. Due to the combined value of Sir Peter Weyland’s various patents and patent-pendings, the company incorporates with a higher fair market valuation than any other company in history.
So, what can it all mean… ?
Anyway, here’s the video.
Prometheus is directed by Ridley Scott, from a screenplay by Damon Lindelof and Jon Spaihts. The film stars Noomi Rapace, Michael Fassbender, Charlize Theron, Guy Pearce, Idris Elba, Sean Harris, Rafe Spall, Logan Marshall-Green, Patrick Wilson and Kate Dickie, and is now on release around the world.
