Someone needs to tell Damon Lindelof that there is a difference between ambiguity and just not answering anything.

I started reading this 20 minutes ago. Really good. Only a few pages in, though. Haven't even seen this film yet, lol.

@Dionysios This is the same director who took Nottingham, a very interesting reinterpretation of the Robin Hood story, and retooled it into a generic mediocre snoozefest.

Is this an ad?

Yes, there were many ploy holes. No, they were not answered. The sequel is NOT highly anticipated.

Just read it myself,
I gotta say, while Prometheus is far from perfect, this would have been a much worse movie. To me, it would have just been ANOTHER Alien movie. With little to nothing unique about it. Plot-wise at least. Sure, this script would have featured some new creatures to look at, a few interesting takes on the classic alien.

But it just reads like a combination of Alien and Aliens.

I also think a lot of the dialogue in this script is lazy at times, and typical sci-fi campiness in others.

Watts:(Regarding the Alien she had removed from he chest and shoots)
"I brought it in..."Lifts her rifle"And I took it out."

I mean, thats just bad...

Again, Prometheus was far from perfect, but this movie would have been completely forgettable.

I definitely get where youre coming from Dionysis. In fact, if I had read this the night I saw Prometheus, I'd probably be way more prone to agree with you.

Here's what I mean by an Alien/ALiens clone. Simply the fact that it devolves into a "lets get some guns and shoot stuff."

In regards to the dialogue, you're right, it naturally could have evolved, but I really thought the build-up to the mission was all very clunky, to me, at least.

For the surgery scene, I think what we had was more-than-enough. If you're a person who likes gore, than this script as a whole would have been better for you. And I understand that, I prefer my horror to be more implied than shown.

But my biggest problem, is what I said above, it became just another action movie.

In the end though, I think I just grew to accept the premise of it NOT being a direct prequel to Alien. I'm glad it wasn't. But if thats what you really wanted, all power to ya.

I mean, I honestly, prefer more mystery surrounding the Xenomorph. Theyre one of those things that are best kept in the dark, figuratively and literally.

Also, if THIS movie had come out. I would have enjoyed it. No doubt. But I wouldn't have felt compelled to buy it, watch it over and over again.

I prefer the movie we got. I too felt that the traditional alien had been done to death, and I much prefer the idea that the xenomorph was just one of several monstrosities that resulted from the experiments of the Engineers. Could I have done without the stupid biologist? Sure. But all things considered, Lindelof's take is better because it expands the story rather than diminishes it.
