Second Leaked Script

im new to this site guys. very brilliant posts and threads. you guys are really intelligent in debating everything :D I read that leaked script. I read it all actually. Now I'm going with it's fake because as others pointed out, its got too many errors. the dialouge is cheesy (but really good in certain areas) and has fantastic pacing but seems like the writer was writing too fast and maybe he had the spell checker turned off or the format he was writing on had no 'spell checker' plus he might be European as he uses British type spelling. But fake or real i found it good in some places, stupid in others and laughable in others but scary in certain areas. now pretending it's real for a minute so bare with me: it says 2nd draft, we all know 1st draft was written by Jon spaihts. Ridley said after reading Lindelof's rough script it opened a new door and they worked on the idea of the rough script and so there will be a 3rd draft or maybe 4th draft. it reminds me of the original Dan O'bannon scenario, great idea - bad execution and a rewrite turned it into a classic BAD PARTS OF SCRIPT: almost everything was bad. The spelling mistakes are just unforgivable but maybe it's just a rough quick script which is meant to only serve as a basis for the story which will be later modified GOOD PARTS OF SCRIPT: I like how nothing really kicks off till later in the story like Alien did. I liked the part of the prometheus flying into the planet in an epic 3D worthy montage. The Orrery scene where David activates the holographic star map and discovers our planet is one of the many planets these SJ's terra formed. The SJ itself which was done really well. It's god like presence could be felt throughout the script and it forcing Shaw to kill Holloway and giving a sinister smile was brilliant and creepy. Shaw being inpregnated in a weird organic room and giving birth. Now it's obvious she will be impregnated as shown in the leaked teaser back in 2011. I liked how it connected alien such as they discovered a warning signal being sent from a nearby planetoid (LV4-26) to the Derelict on Zeus. and the last part where we see a giant Xenomorph although i hope we dont see any in the film. Plus i loved the concept of the Xenomorphs creation which is quite smart i have to admit. I also liked the part in the script when they investigate the dome shaped structure and it's temple. and i liked the idea that the derelict is controlled by a giant biomechanical head. Now that being said i do believe it's fake. But I'm open minded. but we got to remember the final draft or drafts were written by the guy who wrote alot of Lost which had the passengers surviving a horrific unrealistic plane crash LMFAO, a bald guy who managed to sneak a bag full of knifes and a big floating bag of smoke which kills people and rips trees of the ground. so who knows right? but the leaker should be ashamed. He may scare off alot of eager fans from seeing the film. A lot of fans might take the script seriously and not go and see the film and will miss out on the most important and eagerly awaited sci-fi film in decades.

Guys and Gals....since when does a legitimate film script need this at its beginning.... "We open on total darkness. STUDIO AND PRODUCTION COMPANIES CREDITS" They never do. That stuff is assumed. This Fake trailer, as I now definitely believe, is stating the obvious to the point of stupid. No hollywood script would have that in it....It's ridiculous.

Some points: Although it seems legit, I have some issues. First of all: the script was released one day before the new teaser. It is an exceptionally well done interpretation of the scenes we have seen till now, but less so when we consider the teaser. For exemple, it really seems that Prometheus will colide with the alien ship _ but some kind of scape pod is ejected from the ship before the collision, somewhat that is not in the script. Also, there is a scene of a guy holding two spheres that are the source of the red laser _ some kind of scanner, maybe _ so it´s clear that they are human artifacts, not alien artifacts as the script make us to think. And the very end of the script seems exceedingly unlikely, given Ridley´s own declarations, also.

No way this is legit. Too many references to many of our discussions and official news tidbits are overstressed. Nice try by someone, but they were trying a bit too hard IMHO. Someone is laughing at this thread right now...

Ingenious. Not what I thought the script might be, but also not surprising if it were the real thing…

The end of that script is just so james cameron feeling. Just ew.

NNOOOOOOOOO!!! I just finished reading it. I agree, I don't like the ending. Anyway... I just have one point to make - why do they keep referring to the Alien space ship as 'the derelict' when a derelict is something that's abandoned, kaput, does not work anymore? Just sayin'. I think / I hope / It's fake! TM5

you have another clue as to its fakeness there T-Minus-Five.......derelict stupidity

I read it... All. In the historic words of Billy Crystal... "...eh." It does a nice job of giving us a story that matches the images we've already seen. Hope it's not the real thing. I'll be sorely disappointed if it is. Seems like the writer had never heard of flame throwers before... They got the most screen time.

Some fan boy in in his basement, got bored whacking off decided he wanted to write a story and this is what we got....

DIS SCrIps HAS GEART LANGUAGE WHAT Di YUI kNow

[quote]He could've hired an intern to write this up for some cash on the side, leak it, and [u][i][b]whala[/b]...[/i][/u] we have a script! [/quote] @ Flacnvinyl LMFAO the correct expression to have used in this sentence was "Voila" {From The French}

What a load of rubbish made up by a fan from speculation and rumours from sights like this,so if any of it was true not many of us would look forward to watching that c--p anyway.

hey guys im new to this site. haven't posted as much as I would like. the reason is, you guys have already debated every single picture and frame of this film. so I instead just listened to what you guys are saying and having fun doing so. I'm a member of prometheusforum.net and i usually check other sites to see if any new ideas are floating around. this leaked script was sent to the site i go onto and it was laughed off as soon as it hit. call me stupid if you will but i read it and thought it was real and i began loosing faith in prometheus but everyone on that site and you guys have changed my mind. I say its fake too. my interest has sparked back up now the reason i want to post is in case some eager fans read it and think its true. This leaked script may turn people away from the actual film and that would be a shame. remember the same happened with the fake synopsis, then the fake script 'Harvest or something' turned many people away and most of them havent came back. so if anyone reads this dont be alarmed. it's a fan script and isnt the actual screenplay. my advice for any would be fanfic spoiler writers out there, wait till the Fricken TRAILER comes out before making one up lol. as for this script, yeah its better than the other fanfics for prometheus but whoever wrote it needs to slow down, do several drafts, correct spelling and improve character dialouge. For example: when you're writing dialouge dont just make words up, let the characters speak as you would and keep the lines simple. i liked the premise good idea but bad execution. if the faker took time and cleaned it up then MAYBE it would be taken seriously. my sole reason for knowing that its fake isnt the spelling or dialouge mistakes WHICH is common in movie scripts. look up tarantino scripts and you'll laugh your asses off. but its the fact that in 1983 Ridley Scott said he would never return to science fiction unless he got a brilliant mind provoking script. so we can safely agree that this is fake. But what we will see in prometheus is: to put it boldly is nothing short of HISTORY in the making

First of all, the spelling errors don't make it "fake". Early drafts have ridiculous amounts of grammatical errors ie 'Pulp Fiction'.... What make's this script an obvious fake is: 1) It's not a feature length script. It's too short. 2) The only parts that don't suck, are the parts where the writer obviously just took what they inferred from the teaser and fused the pieces together (fairly well), but no cigar. 3) This it's obviously written by someone with very little life experience ie a teenager or young adult. The dialogue between Shaw and Halloway are like two prepubescent teens asking "do you like me" .... Also, the rape scene? Really? Was it necessary or interesting? Stupid actually. Last but not least, ending is retarded.

@Spartacus - You rock and I suck... at expressions, apparently!

I have read the script and i think its not what the movie will be. Maybe its a early draft, maybe just fake. The final movie may or may not have some elements of that script. A few things i have noticed....... The Shaw C-Section does not quite match what we see in the Trailers. There is no explanation or mention to the scenes where one crew member has the Worm/Eel crawl into the tear in his space suit. My money is on Fifield and he mutates into the creature that attackes the crew trying to burn something in the Cargo Bay. Again Vickers apears to be on the Ship and ejects before it crashes into the Derelict, but in that script she is on the plannet. There are a few more inconsistancies. some stuff even if fake may be close, like how Vickers could want to keep Shaws Baby for the Company. The Script seems to go along with Shaw being kidnapped by the Blue Guy and thats how she became pregnant with Squidy. Others think it was Holloway. I am going for some other way and this would be the embaracing and shock value scene. Dont forget the Script does not give any mention to the Tenticle that seems to be chassing Shaw... is that her Baby Grown up.... or the Daddy ;) I read the leaked Thing Script not all but a fair share, and it indeed was near word for word spot on with the movie and trailers. This leaked Script however has many holes and things missing from it that clearly are in the Draft. If it is fake well credit to the writer as a bit more time spent on their story and worded longer and its not bad job, its one that would fit more with a Alien Prequal. But i think the movie will be different and a little out of the box in how it will happen and maybe a risky move... i expect the un expected and a real Head $£"%
