Good old Damon - got his teeth into poor Ridley (lets be honest - however much I love Ridley you just DONT get 74 year old multi multi millionaires hanging out on the creative cutting edge!) He jedi mind tricked him with his convoluted AVP mish mash Jockey in suit bullshit and gave birth to a giant TURD!!! Big aplomb to everybody on this site though, the imagination, enthusiasm, creative ideas and general FANTASTIC banter has been second to none - I appluad you ALL!!!! Peace THE HIGH PRIEST PS suppose I shoud reserve critisism until I see the movie tomorrow at 13.20 UK time - However I have heard enough from you guys to know the facts!

We should all get together and write a script for Ridley. :-)

We saw he's a tv series scenarist. Interactions between characters are less good than alien, prometheus should have deserved a complete series season.

perenucleaire: I'd bet there WILL be a prometheus tv series.

Let's hope DL is not involved with the Blade Runner prequel/sequel.

"[b]He jedi mind tricked him with his convoluted AVP mish mash Jockey in suit bullshit and gave birth to a giant TURD!!![/b]" I've not seen the film yet (got my tickets for tomorrow night) but I've always been EXTREMELY concerned that Lindelof was involved. I don't rate him at all. But RS has long since said that the thing in the chair was a suit, not a creature. So IF that is the way that it actually turned out in Prometheus then I'd say it's more down to RS's original idea than Lindelof's meddling.

@membrane God Forbid......The guy maybe smoke just too much dope - His stuff turns into a tangled mess unless strictly monitored..... Like I said, Ridley took to him for some reason - I think the reason being he got Ridley thinking about the "oversaturation" of all things XENO/ALIEN - Ridley obviously seriously bought into all that - AS DID I with the way they where going on about it - They had us all stretching our imaginations and pushing the boundaries, when what they had come up with missed out THE BASICS!!!!!!!!! Fuck! School boy error!

@ db73 - Dude would love to see a Ridley quote mentioning the Jockey in Alien was a suit PRIOR to the production of the Alien prequel/Prometheus project - Please send link of this evidence. Not saying your wrong - but I didn't hear about "The Suit" until deep into Prometheus production.

Why is nobody mentioning Spaihts? The script is basically his, and RS was going for it until DL suggested to steer clear from a prequel. From what I understood from the interviews, Lindelof has just "Lindelofised" something that was already there. If anything is wrong with this movie, plot-wise, all three authors have to be blamed not just Lindelof! I demand equal rights! Down with Jon Spaihts!!!

Ridley Scott will eventually tell us how the Queen was born. Right now we have the Deacon; coming soon the Mercury, the May and the Taylor.

fair enough...Scott, Sphaits and Lindeloff got all tangled up and the soup turned sour....

I hope they all are attacked by a roving gang of gay werewolves.

I hope Lindeloff has all his money confiscated by the art police and given to the poor but talented writer guild!

Bloody Hell Frantz - So the script must have been in some damn poor shape at the hands of Sphaits then!

To me , it seemed like they didn't really know what to do with the script, and so they decided to do nothing with it at all.
