  1. Very few films truly have impact. American Sniper is having a frickin' IMPACT. Crazy. Rightly or wrongly.

  2. The best part of the dental implant procedure was when the doctor said, "That's good -- we can drill deeper."

  5. Apollo 13 is on tv and I'm so close to tears. I fu**ing love that movie.

  7. @KingsmanMovie was kickass crazy spy spoof explosive action fun. Some great set pieces and cast.

  8. I'm not always the biggest Bradley Cooper fan, but he was terrific in American Sniper.

  9. Stupid question here: I'm working in MMS, how do I format it to get rid of the extra space between lines of dialogue. I see this all the time now and I can't believe I still don't know how to do it. Help, please!

  13. Happy Holidays to one and all. Just like to say this consistently stays a great resource. Thanks to all the contributors - Hit List, Black List, FYC scripts, old scripts, spec scripts, TV scripts. Just great. Thank you. Now make sure you read some of the scripts instead of just having a million of them. So much to learn. Never give up on your writing dreams. Never ever.

      Well said and greatly appreciated. There's always a blank page waiting for us.

  14. I guess we need to start getting coverage from the DPRK.

  15. So they paid Seth eight million for this tsuris? I wonder if his next big wacky edgy concept will be quite so welcome.

      The hacking has been officially tracked back to North Korea now. And a pundit on TV was estimating that the canceled release would cost Sony about $50 million.

      I know. And you're absolutely right about the precedent - are threats against controversial movies going to stop their release or even development?

  18. I need a new lightweight 13-14" laptop (I'm not interested in Macs). Anyone using one they love? I'm looking at the Yoga 3 Pro and the Asus UX301LA, but open to other suggestions. Thanks in advance!

  20. I know this is a dead topic...but the more I think about it, it must be said: Interstellar is a complete mess.

      Besides McGeek's good point about emotion and character, I think Nolan really needs to learn the limits of exposition. I've never seen so much explanation in a film to so little effect/comprehension.

      So right about the script, Kas. It was a great read.

  22. Star Wars and I have the quintessential abusive relationship. Each time it says to come back, it's changed. But every time it ends with me in tears.

  23. Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!

  24. Didn't want to hijack Fsalmon's post about Serial, so adding this post. I'm new to podcasts (other than film-related ones). Do any of you have any great podcast recommendations?
