I just wanted to point out that I noticed that you borrow heavily from Michael "Dorkman" Scott's prequel treatments that can be found here. I'm not talking about borrowing a couple vague ideas here and there, if that were the case I wouldn't have bothered to write this in the first place. No, the entire story is largely the same (there are some minor change-ups) to the point of you actually having copied entire sentences, or more accurately entire chunks of text.

Now, Dorkman's have been around for a long time so there's no question about who was first. In fact, I actually suspect you copied his treatments, changed the titles and a plot point here and there and now you're trying to pass them of as your own.

I know if someone does a fan prequel rewrite it can hardly be considered as copyrighted material but you could perhaps at least give some credit where credit is due, right?
