Yeah definitely!
I like how they kept much of the Alien universe as far as we can see it.
Great sets with tubes, corridors and such, very alike the first Alien movie.

Also I'm very curious about how much we'll learn about the history of the Space Jockey.
There are some theories/leaks (unconfirmed) out there already...

Triple awesome :)

Looks like amazing work.  Could it have any TG influence, I wonder.

Doubtful, although i would be surprised. Ridley Scott is a realist and he likes to use as minimal of CG as possible. There is lots of on-location in this film and huge sets made in Pinewood Studios. If TG is used i can only imagine it would be well fused as background.

Yep, think so too. For instance, the outdoor shots are filmed in Iceland.
So best chance for TG2 is some backdrop work.

Dont forget planet approach, orbit, and decent. He can be as into location shooting as he wants, he ain't getting those shots! lol. hmmmm, Then again its pretty amazing what can be done with a weather balloon and some luck.

From what I saw in the preview it looks like he returned to H.R. Giger's original art from the first movies! Blew my mind when I first saw his work, I was just a kid.

H.R. Giger's biomechanics images: http://www.google.com/search?pq=h.r.+giger's&hl=en&cp=16&gs_id=g&xhr=t&q=h.r.+giger's+biomechanoids&client=safari&rls=en&gs_sm=&gs_upl=&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.,cf.osb&biw=1373&bih=878&um=1&ie=UTF-8&tbm=isch&source=og&sa=N&tab=wi&ei=oxf8TumRN6KLsgKgromdAQ#q=h.r.+giger%27s+biomechanics&um=1&hl=en&client=safari&rls=en&tbm=isch&source=lnt&tbs=isz:l&sa=X&ei=vBf8TrftFabM2AWGofHqCg&ved=0CAoQpwUoAQ&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.,cf.osb&fp=bfc713ebc0f206e3&biw=1373&bih=878
