Over the course of the past 2 years, we tracked news daily on Ridley Scott's Prometheus leading up to its release this past June. Since then, reviews of the film have been extremely polarized. I for one, loved it. But one of the many questions fans wonder is "What could have been added?" to the film to possibly explain some of the ambiguous plot moments. The early revisions of the Prometheus/Paradise plot could hold some of these answers, or contain more clues to guiding us in the right path.

I received an email a few moments ago from "Damon Lindelof", entitled "Ooops" and inside was an attached PDF document entitled "PROMETHEUS - Draft #17". I put Damon's name in quotes as in the past, many of you know we've received numerous Fan-made scripts - the largest being Alien Harvest, initially thought to be co-writer, Jon Spaihts' Prometheus draft.

I figure, since the film is out and we've got a good 2 years before Paradise graces the big screen, why not show this to the fan community here. If it's fake, it's still fun to read through. I've read it through, but I'll let you pass judgement after you've read it. I've asked "Damon" to Tweet to us on Twitter @Prometheus_6812 to verify if this is in fact his work, or to simply say, nope - not mine.

UPDATE

Not long after Tweeting to Mr. Lindelof on Twitter about this "leak", the man himself confirms this is F A K E, 100% fan-made. Below is a snapshot of the conversation:

If/when this is confirmed, I'll definitely read it. I'm not particularly interested in the work of a fan posing as Mr Lindelof...

I'll be the first to say I have my doubts. I don't think screenwriters leave their email address on their scripts for privacy's sake. But either way I thought I'd post this up for kicks.

If it is fan-made, it's quite funny to see fans still trying to spread scripts around after the film's come to pass.

@snakeboy › It's still fun to read through though. Even if it's fake.

Well, it's now officially FAKE - yet another one to add to the pile, haha.

Damon confirms fake script.

I'm interested in what the creators had in mind, but not particularly interested in fan created content. I think I'll give it a miss now that it's fake status is confirmed.

But it does make me wonder about the kind of person who'd try to pass off a fan script as a "real" one and think that the truth wouldn't be revealed almost immediately. What are we? Idiots?

Sadly I kinda like this script

"IT APPROACHES HIM AND SMILES. IT TOCUHES AND GENTLY CARESSES. DAVID'S HAIR. DAVID SMILES AS HE FEELS LOVED BY SOMETHING, A FEELING HE HAS NEVER FELT BEFORE."

I'd have expected it to be spell checked also

what a tease! got me all hot and flustered!

@snakeboy, it's just for fun...that's all.

Nice scirpt btw.
