According to Gahgan, this is an old screenwriting expression: "Shall we have him pet the dog?" First, has anyone actually heard that expression before? Second, what the eff does that mean?? (and if you're speculating, fine but please say so, and if you have source, please provide)

Absolutely loved the "X-Men: Days of Future Past" trailer. Character focused and emotional.

I know - late to the party here and basically saying the same thing others have said, but -- thank you Gravity. Best movie experience of the year so far.

TBers who use tablets to read scripts on (iPad, Kindle Fire, Galaxy Tab) How has your experience been with it? Does it hurt your eyes to read off something like that for extended periods of time?
