AdminEngineer01/24/2012I was emailed this today. Not sure if its the same "plot leak" that's already been posted here. I haven't had time to cross reference, but regardless, here you go guys. If it is the same one, let me know. Otherwise, discuss.
[center]-----------------------------------------[/center]
Future Earth in the year 2058. Humanity has made great technological achievements. However, while searching in Africa for evidence from the past, archeologists unveil the ultimate surprise shock stun when scientists discover extraterrestrial alien artifacts, which seem to reveal that Mankind was genetically created by a mega advanced alien extraterrestrial species, who are known as the giant Space Jockeys from the first Alien movie directed by legendary filmmaker Ridley Scott.
Even more startling, the extraterrestrial alien gods terraformed all of Earth to provide a planet, which could safely harbor the life of the new Humans. The search by the Humans of the dig area uncovers the location in space of the alien extraterrestrial home world, which is called Paradise. After a few months pass, the Weyland Corp sends the Prometheus star ship with a Human crew in order to make first contact with the extraterrestrials aliens amongst the stars.
With the ability to harness faster than light propulsion, after several years have elapsed the Prometheus arrives at the Zeta Riticuli star system. First contact is successfully achieved with the alien extraterrestrial creators peacefully welcoming the Humans. Next, the extraterrestrials aliens take the Humans to a frightening planet of great wonder.
The alien extraterrestrial gods approve of their Human children, who have impressive accomplishments and the Humans learn they are the first of these children to rise to this level of primitive intelligence. The extraterrestrials aliens share some of their ultra mega advanced technology with the Humans because the Humans have earned the right to be further uplifted as a civilization.
Treachery among the Humans strikes as a member of the Prometheus crew doesn't believe the aliens extraterrestrials have shared enough technology with Earth. In fact, this traitor takes the biological source code to the extraterrestrial alien terraforming technology, which is the basis for the great powers of the alien extraterrestrial gods.
With this awesome technology, the Humans could become equal with the aliens extraterrestrials. While the extraterrestrial alien creators are accomplished scientists, they are also a political and military empire controlled by many ultra great military geniuses. In fact, the aliens extraterrestrials have actually destroyed many planets during their imperial expansion.
The extraterrestrial alien gods are highly angered by the Humans trying to become their equals. In order to stop the fleeing Humans, the aliens extraterrestrials send a bio weapon creature monster, which has the purpose of preparing deadly worlds for habitable colonization. Yet the plan backfires as the Humans are able to make the bio weapon creature monster attack its extraterrestrial alien makers.
It turns out the Humans cause the monster to become extremely smarter, more ruthless and much bigger. This new creature destroys Paradise. The surviving members of the Prometheus space crew leave the fallen alien extraterrestrial world.
However, while the Humans travel back to Earth, one of the extraterrestrial alien gods has survived and is determined to unleash the alien extraterrestrial wrath as the shock of the gods against the citizens of Earth.

MemberOvomorph01/24/2012I have read the same at one community. It`s said that it is really the true plot , though it looks a little unbelieveable that the true plot could be so easily found and put in thread, it looks very logical, great and like a true masterpiece...I hope this plot will be near to what will be seen in the movie, but i still hope for some surprises...
Anyway, thx for posting!

MemberOvomorph01/24/2012Yes! thanks BugHunter. I haven't seen this Plot in awhile. It was on IMDB for sometime before 20th Century Fox took it down. Strange thing is, it was posted by them and then immediately taken down a few days later. I never understood but this plot sure as hell seems pretty damn plausible if you ask me. Out of all the theories and leaked plots out there, I would have to say this one sounds most legit.

MemberOvomorph01/24/2012TBH, for all its failings, it's the best thing I've read that is out there. I would love for someone to show us something better, but it hasn't turned up yet.
It does read very closely to another version, whether this reinforces its authenticity or emphasises its fakeness, is anyone's guess.

MemberOvomorph01/24/2012So this essentially sounds like Jack and the Beanstalk, only the giant gets all vengeful when he finds out his golden goose is gone. Poor, foolish Jack.
Fall down seven times, get up eight.
Mentos
MemberOvomorph01/24/2012I'll be honest, I think this might actually work. We see from the trailers that David is handling an ample back on board the Prometheus/Magellen (humans stealing the SJ's resources). Plus Ridley has often talked (back in 2003 with the Quadriliogy release) about the eggs being used as a bio weapon.
I think if this is the real deal, its a transcribed version of set hearsay from someone working on the film, the descriptions are obviously very blunt and phrases like [i]"source code"[/i] push me to think this wasn't written by someone that holds all the knowledge on the film.

MemberOvomorph01/24/2012Hi Guys
@Ripley8 If this was indeed posted by Fox only to be taken down so quick I think its one of Gods misinformation stunts sorry did I say God I ment Sir Ridley
Unless its like Roswell and they pulled it and then start the misinformation LOL
Mentos
MemberOvomorph01/24/2012[b]@Hurkerlover[/b] possibly. I know that in previous threads we've attempted to discuss the depth of Fox's marketing campaign. I truly believe the leaked images and trailers were sent out on purpose, so why not a few leaked/fake plots?
Gavin
MemberTrilobite01/24/2012I'm going to go against the grain here and say that i think this is a fake, my gut feeling says that its a fake, telling us what we want to hear and using certain keywords like "Weyland Corp" and "Paradise" and "FLT".
They say if it sounds too good to be true then it usually is.
IMO FAKE
F--- it - lets go for it!
MemberOvomorph01/24/2012this could easily be one of a hundred of lindoff's screenplays, think about how creative he can be and how many times ridley demanded perfection, i think the core of the movie is in there though
Hukerlover
MemberOvomorph01/24/2012Yer I agree with Mr Fuch it release an older script to keep us off track while were all orgasiming over this were not looking for the real thing
@Snolklebottem My senterments entirely as deepthrout said to Mulder "the best way to hide the truth is between two lies.
Rakkasan
MemberOvomorph01/24/2012I will go with fake too. Look at the syntax and sentence structure. This plot looks like it's written by a 12 year old that was held back a couple grades. Unless it's "deliberately" leaked like Mentos said.
centrosphere
MemberOvomorph01/24/2012Some strong evidences that suggest some authenticity of the hypothetical plot:
a) Either "Prometheus" or "Paradise" (previous name of the movie, by some sources) brings the idea of someone stealing knowledge (the first is obvious, the second also if you remember Adam, Eve, the Serpent and the Tree of Knowledge).
b) Scott seems to be in love with "danikean" ideas, as many interviews testimony (apud Erik Von Daniken, a writer that was very influential in the seventies with a theory of the Gods of Mankind beeing in fact aliens visiting our planet).
Some problems:
a) the trailler strongly suggests that there are nothing benign in the alien species, even the SJ´s. No direct evidence, but the mood. It would requires a really deceptive cut to make that trailler from a movie with this plot.
b) internal consistency is lacking. How in the Hell it is supposed that a tiny expeditionary crew with a bunch of scientists and some mercenaries could actually defeat an entire alien civilization supposed to be far more advanced than us? Even if they had succeeded in making some fuzz, by the time of "Alien" we should have been smeared into atoms, not a Nostromo ship investigating.
c) the overall style of the history doesn´t fit into Scott style. But I concede this is wildly subjective.
Gavin
MemberTrilobite01/24/2012@ Centrosphere...
All of that is why I think its fake
@ Rakkasan, you feeling okay agreeing with me, you want to lie down, a glass of water lol
Hukerlover
MemberOvomorph01/24/2012I dont think they've gone to attack the SJ's Gods but to say hello there's no evidence of a large military presence. The company have sent the android to gather as much technology as posible for a profit, this does indeed fit in with the way previous Alien films so who knows there may be more to this.
Christ thier bloody good at keeping us guessing aint they.
Frantz
MemberOvomorph01/24/2012there are 34939438 fake plots more or less like that .... there is not one single thing that make me belive is real ...that is a "safe" fake plot ... also no references to any thing we have saw until now ( no mutants , no pregnancy , nothing about the central character , nothing about the head , temple or whatsoever ) so that fake plot must be quite old too .

MemberOvomorph01/24/2012[quote]With the ability to harness faster than light propulsion, after several years have elapsed the Prometheus arrives at the Zeta Riticuli star system.[/quote]
Only after reading that do I realize how ridiculous the "five year" time frame was from the [url=http://www.prometheus-movie.com/community/forums/topic/1157]Kate Dickie article[/url].
Lambert said it would take ten months for the Nostromo to reach Earth. I'm not usually concerned about minor plot twists from the original film but this wasn't something she was guessing or could have misinterpreted. Her reply was blunt, "ten months".
Match that up with the theory in this thread and it just gets even crazier. The writer shouldn't need to explain how fast the ship can travel in a literal sense, and if he's comparing it to Alien he shouldn't need to introduce the lightspeed argument anyway because it's not what the audience remembers.

MemberOvomorph01/24/2012I have to agree with Mentos. This sounds like the closest thing to an actual plot. I also agree that its probably only "[i]a transcribed version of set hearsay from someone working on the film[/i]". That's why a lot of the references seem off (Light speed, source code, etc.) The person who wrote/dictated the plot (as seen in this thread) probably isn't in-the-know about the finer details of the movie/story. Furthermore, the version transcribed is probably preliminary and does not feature many small changes made throughout production/post-production.
Again, still just speculation and of course, I could be wrong, but i think this is it.
Also, I heard from some one actually in-the-know, that the real plot was indeed leaked and on the net. He/She could not tell me where it was, but they did say the "Spaiths - Harvest" script was not it. I was told this when I first read the Spaiths script.
Juxtapose
MemberOvomorph01/24/2012I agree with Frantz...their is 2 little mention of way 2 many things...no mention of the suit that Ridley hinted at either....However I believe this plot might be accurate in some places....but certainly not all...partially true and partially false....difficult to tell which are which tho?
DropShipDrivR
MemberOvomorph01/24/2012mmmm....something sure does smell good in here. I gotta say this plot line got me twitchin' in my pants initially. I think it does hold water in some aspects. The Von Daniken based theme intrigued me as did the mention of "Paradise" as I am sure that I have read that that was the original title of the script. But as we all know, Ridley Scott is a crafty SOB and in all possibility the above mentioned plot is indeed studio generated misinformation...god I love this shit.
GreatBoosUp
MemberOvomorph01/24/2012I don't buy the entire "humans meet the aliens and peacefully exchange information until a crew member gets greedy" element. I think the plot will be closer to "humans wander around alien world until they find the ampules and open Pandora's Box pissing off Pandora".
Rakkasan
MemberOvomorph01/24/2012@ Snorkelbottom
I don't know what your deal is, but I prefer good imaginative ideas and the forums to discuss them. I do not like veiled innuendos bordering on insults. Since I do not know you personally why do you find it difficult to believe I could agree with you just as easily as disagree. My comments are based on my opinions, and not the poster to whom I am replying. If this is all an attempt at humor please remember you cannot convey tone in a post. If it is not humor then keep any personal comments about me to yourself.

MemberOvomorph01/24/2012@Juxtapose & DropshipdrivR Like I said as deepthroat said to Mulder "the best way to hide the truth is between two lies.
Gavin
MemberTrilobite01/24/2012Its called British sarcasm Rakkasan, very, very dry humour. Think of the TV series Frasier, but as dry as a desert. Words of advice - better get used to it, some are drier than me (I wont mention no names), do not take anything anyone says personally, they are just words and most importantly lighten up.
As Yoda once said "These are the ways of the forum, be mindful of your emotions, they will betray you"
Rakkasan
MemberOvomorph01/24/2012That seems rather hypocritical because you chastised Tec-B in another post (about the Weyland-Yutani logo) for what you perceived to be an insult. It is such an easy excuse to say whatever you want and then follow with "it's only a joke" or "you don't understand my humor". A famous comedian once said that a joke that has to be explained isn't funny. He was British. Went by the name of Dudley Moore.
For the record I enjoy British humor. Spent many years stationed in Germany and fell in love with BBC (especially Dr. Who). British humor is dry, but it's also very witty. Your version of "humor" is nothing like that.
Ender
MemberOvomorph01/24/2012Nah not going for this one, the SJ's sound too reasonable. I think they will be completely amoral and the humans will be treated like the insignificant beings that Scott is trying to convey. Plus as someone else mentioned it reads like a 12 year old wrote it.
I reckon the whole theme of the film will be, and I quote....."that we're all just these little gnats crawling around on our little planet" Depressing & disturbing, it will poke fun at our ideas and ideals. Religion and morality are firmly in the cross hairs.
@ Snorks, british sarcasm is the lowest form of wit, maybe you should tone it down a bit and try and be a little bit less abrasive.
Gavin
MemberTrilobite01/24/2012If you follow up on the Tec-B business we actual did have a full on disagreement and chastised each other, then we made up and shook hands (metaphorically speaking) and have been friends since.
I have never insulted you, but it seems like your trying to insult me and I am at a loss as to why, if you don't get my humour then thats fine there are many others that do. I gave you some friendly advice and it seems you have thrown it back in my face, fine.
BTW - Dudley Moore was never funny, ever.
GreatBoosUp
MemberOvomorph01/24/2012I agree Enderwiggin. A pleasant, welcome SJ alien race would be a Speilberg movie, but this is Ridley film. Ridley will heap on the mystery, tension and horror. I suspect Ridley will keep us wondering what the space jockey race really looks like until the end of the film just as in the original 'Alien'.
klaatu
MemberOvomorph01/24/2012Interesting theory...I would suggest whilst not the actual plot there are quite plausible aspects to this. I would be pleased if this ended up as the movie. Bring it on.....!

MemberOvomorph01/24/2012"BTW - Dudley Moore was never funny, ever."
Now that right there's funny, I don't care who you are.
