Well, considering this script has no actual pictures, I guess I can let it slide that Melina's coworker, the charming young lady with three...reasons to leave a tip, well she's not in this script. The improvements to Bennie are well thought out, because that last fight with the saw blade mech arm was a little hokey. The ending plot was superior to the theatrical plot, but at the same time the concept of letting the viewer decide if the adventure was just a dream was much better in the theatric version. In fact, the entire script improved, aside from Cohaagen plotting to ship everyone out so he could have the terraformed Mars. Otherwise this was good. A couple typos were in there, but you knew what was going on. Oh, and changing "Doug Quail" to "Doug Quaid" seems like maybe it was influenced by Dan Quail? Oh, side note, the wife calls him Dougie at one point, his Mars name was Hauser... Dougie Hauser, MD?
