MemberOvomorphMar-26-2012 5:57 PMSo many posts and comments about leaked scripts. I would be curious about the number of people on this site that would read a script for Prometheus if it was proven to be authentic. I feel I already know more than I cared to. I have even gotten to the point that if even a thread topic may give away more than I already know then I won't read it. I definitely wouldn't read it, but I feel there is a large group that would.
So I ask, would you read the script?

MemberOvomorphMar-26-2012 6:35 PMWhat was the "last one that did the rounds" Fury? The one with all the spelling mistakes? I dont think so myself. If I thought it was, I would not read it.

MemberOvomorphMar-26-2012 7:27 PMI would read it, simply because I prefer to watch a film several times to catch all that I missed the first time(s). Reading the book or screenplay at least helps with all the little things that you just can't get from a movie.
It wouldn't spoil the movie for me at all. I've read many screenplays before, and the ones that were authentic really added to the overall experience.
Maybe some of the "shock" value would be affected, but not necessarily in the negative. My vision vs. someone else's on a certain scene may vary widely.
I would read it in a heartbeat.

Co-AdminMemberOvomorphMar-26-2012 8:17 PMFury 161 still hasn't offered any proof that he really knows anything. Despite being asked.

MemberOvomorphMar-26-2012 8:26 PMI read it. And it was what I expected. In regards to its authenticity, there could be questions. If it is a fake, someone went to a lot of trouble. From what we know, from the trailers, slowed down scenes, and still shots, yes, it could fit.
Reading it, and watching it are two different things. If it is real, I’m sure Ridley Scott could make it look a lot better than it reads. But essentially, no one knows how accurate it is, but if it is, then in my opinion, it could still be a great movie.
From the beginning, I’ve kind of convinced myself, that this won’t be like the “Alien experience”. This way I won’t let myself down. Now if it is, then better for the audience and myself. If not, then just like before, I think Sir Scott can create something great from any script. Besides, I’m thinking he’s been pondering doing this movie for years. At least since Cameron’s Aliens. So i'm guessing he's put much more into this, than usual.

MemberOvomorphMar-26-2012 8:47 PMWhat do you have to gain from leaking a script you only have things to lose like your Professional reputation and status as well as legal costs or worse .
Your career in a highly competitive industry the cons far out weigh any pro's if indeed there are any.

Why the Hell are there people who think this is real ? its obviously just random bits of previous trailers mixed together into a horrible story that obviously has NOTHING, to do with the movie now, We now KNOW that Weyland is on the crew, that was not in the script.
In the script it says they are scanned by red lazers from the SP ship, but now we know its the Prometheus crew sending probes to scan the ship.
Also one of the crew members is a F**KING ASTROLOGER!!!!!! ... ASTROLOGY!!! NOT ASTRONOMY, are we saying that Ridley and the writers are all retards and didn't pick up on that little nutshell ?
Please for love of, well not God an I'm atheist, but the love of something, Put a huge banner on the front page above the trailer that says THE LEAKED SCRIPT WAS BULLS**T PLEASE STOP COMMENTING ON IT, ARHRHRHGHGHGHGHHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHHGHGHGHGHGHGHGHHGHGHGHGHGHHGHGH...kittens
