Second Leaked Script

MemberOvomorphMarch 11, 20125831 Views79 RepliesI read the first several paragraphs of the "leaked script" and stopped reading for two reasons.
1. I liked where the story line was heading and if this is the actual script, I decided that I don't want it to ruin the mystery and experience for me.
2. On the other hand, I find it very difficult and damn near impossible to believe that this is an actual script because there are way too many spelling and grammatical errors through out it. For example, they're, their and there, you're and your, and it's and its are misused constantly through out. Also, they refer to a "migraine" as a "mind grain" and they call "duct tape" "duck tape". This can't be an official script because any script writer that doesn't know basic high school grammar should not be writing at all.
I can see one or two errors here and there as being acceptable, but with as many as I saw in the first several paragraphs, it makes it very difficult for me to believe that this script is legitimate. An amateur had to have written this.
The one thing that sealed the deal ultimately for me in the first several paragraphs that lead me to believe that this script can't be real: How in the hell is it that the ship's mechanic/engineer doesn't know what an FTL drive is? That's like the main component of the ship. How is he going to fix it if it breaks down?

@ Flacnvinyl - its defo fake... it claims the red lasers are of SJ origin and that they act as an atmosphere barrier, yet in the teaser for the new trailer we clearly see one of the crew throwing orbs up that generate these red lasers.
All the writer of this script did was refer to scenes we have seen in the leaked and official trailer, as a way of fooling us as to its credibility but the most obvious mistake it makes is its interpretation of two seperate scenes as one scene - see the news section regarding this screenplay to see what I am referring to.

@ Diesektor - Its FAKE...
1. The red lasers are human technology, from orbs, as shown in the teaser for the new trailer.
2. There is no mention of the mutant having elongated limbs, as he so clearly does in the teaser for the new trailer.
3. It claims that Holloway puts one his helmet, but not completely and gets sprayed with something, burning him and the crew rush to remove his helmet. These two scenes as seen in the original trailer are not of the same person - Holloway in pain is wearing a yellow bonnet-cap, whereas the crew member with the smoking helmet does not.
4. Two Derelicts on neighbouring planets, both holding a deadly cargo. Don't think so.
5. It claims Vickers leaves the Prometheus before it sets off to collide with the derelict. The teaser for the new trailer shows Vickers pod ejecting from the Prometheus mid flight.
6. There is no mention of the rolling Derelict crash, as clearly seen in the original trailer.
7. There is also no mention of the derelict flying upright, as seen in the teaser for the new trailer.
The list goes on and on... This script/screenplay is a FAKE.
