Mala'kak,
I know! Him saying that is probably one of the biggest things I've read about prometheus. He just basically said that he was loyal to the fans! lol. Thats awsome!

thats a very interesting interview !!
""SPAIHTS: Certainly, it evolved a lot, while I was on it. I wrote five rapidly evolving drafts that changed a lot, even on my watch. And, I’ve read Damon’s draft as well. I would say that what Damon did was more of a rebalancing of the story than a reinvention. My plot, my characters, and my mythology are all still firmly in place, but he found a way to complicate it and elaborate on some character relationships and mythology, and he wrote some great new scenes and a lot of new ideas. It’s impossible to be very specific without getting into spoilers, and I want to preserve the secrecy of the story, as much as I can. So, there is definitely a lot of new energy and some new ideas, but when I read the script or watch the movie, I see a story that I feel a lot of ownership of. ""

John Spaihts interview is incredible! I am so happy that he spoke his mind about the process of making Prometheus. His words say that he is happy with the end result, that pretty much eased my mind. I can't wait to be surprised with the final outcome!

I like the fact that Spaiths ideas and infrastructure as he put it, was left
intact and not pulled apart by Lindeloff as a lot of hysterical fans assumed
last year. Also that Lindeloff has added new slants and twists to the characters
and Sphaits' mythos is tantalising. This is superb news.
