had/still has a name" is diabolical), but it's easily ten times the movie I saw.
Although the alien gubbins at the end is still pretty out there
(the saucer blowing up, I mean), the manner in which it's handled (plus Indy being instrumental to the downfall/resolution) is just so vastly superior that it boggles my mind.

haha well played sir
While I'll confess rejected drafts (or drafts-in-progess) can be an interesting peek behind the creative curtain, they really don't amount to much. Darabont's script may be superior, but to compare a single draft favorably to a completed film shows a pretty severe misunderstanding of the filmmaking process.
Don't get me wrong: a better script is a better script, and a better script is definitely the preferred starting point, but a starting point is all it is.
Also, the last thing we need is hobby-as-identity internet nerds creating another what-could-have-been holy grail that clouds the merits (or lack thereof) of the actual product.
By all accounts Superman 2 was actually pretty good.
