Jon Spaihts Confirms Leaked Script is Authentic

I have finished about 1/2 of the original script and rnjoyed the [presentation. I am having trouble getting back to to finish the story,,,and I don't know why! Perhaps I might like it more,,and don't want to discount the Prometheus movie as we know it.

Nostromo, I still think the Lindelof/Scott script (while asking a lot of questions) has NO EXIT STRATEGY i.e. they'll end up lost in Pro2 and Pro3, a bit, the logical viewer might need to suspend his criticality whilst enjoying the visuals. Maybe I should have entered Prometheus, the way I entered Stargate - BY TAKING MY BRIAN OUT. That way, you'd all be more happier that I've been happier for the experience. That elephant-suit error though ... that was just weird. The fact that THE ONLY WAY to get in that chair 'should have been' a [b]normal Engineer[/b] suited up with his little tapir-suit. Based on the holograms and the cryo sketches, I suspect a (space jockey/cryo) redesign somewhere LATE in the pre-production. But who cares, it would have been a great film if I'd not given Ridley Scott so much credit. I'll remember for next time, though. :)

Sophisticated. Really? Not the first word that jumps to my mind..

You've got to approach this thing like one approaches Nietzsche.. Whatever opinions you may have about the scrips/film - you can take it or leave it. It's the continuity errors in logic that are the most troubling... and the final product, our beloved Prometheus, is a bit top heavy with them. Who's at fault for this? Again ya'll discuss that amongst yourselves...

One can't line up ALIEN w/ PROMETHEUS without running into problems with a 'logical' sequence of events - the movies are really parallel universes all their own.. two derielicts.. two transmissions.. two planetoids.. two.. two.. two.. it's a parallel universe I tell ya.. Next installment entitled: PROMETHEUSES

Sorry folks, Fox has asked me to take the script down. Hopefully you got to save it in time, as it's an awesome read. I will be posting a write up which I've been working on the past couple days since reading it, very soon. So for those who did not get to see it, I will have a write up of the script up by tonight. So keep your eyes pealed for that! :) And if you're heartbroken about the script being taken down, feel free to PM me...

From what I have rtead I thought it was very good...Situations were presented charactors embellished and threads mentioned that I found quite interesting. It is the kind of script I wish would have been made..not to replace the Prometheus we have enjoyed but as a different view to a similar situation.

can anyone email me the script?? please :/ loserhc@gmail.com thanks :)

I liked it, perhaps that script should have been used...

Where can I read Alien: Engineers?

@Preston- you can read it on Scribd website

 

My opinons... I know I'm a year behind. I really enjoyed the beginning part. It really explained the changing of humans throughout history.

However, I thought the plot was too straight to alien. I didn't think it represented the evolution well. It was straight to alien... not a mistake in tampering. I would have liked to see more alien... don't get me wrong. But the scarabs I felt were a bit too much. I think the original shows the evolution of the forumula being tainted and finally making a monstrosity that will probably eventually become a parasite.
