  2. 105 pages written in 5 days after 3 months of outlining my new script. I'm back baby. And it feels good.

  3. Do we really need another Chucky movie?

  4. Taken 3: The plot line is under wraps but said to involve Taken meets Taken 2: except this time...the person he has to find and rescue...is himself.

  5. THE PURGE aka REWRITE GONE WRONG.

  6. My psycho-thriller has just been optioned. It's titled: "The Cuckoo's Plight”. Jim Sheridan who directed "My Left Foot" – from which Daniel Day Lewis won an academy award - is onboard as an executive producer.

  7. A chunk of Nolan's sets got washed away in the Canadian flooding.

  8. Researching how the neocortex works... YouTube is a lifesaver. Books are hard to grasp without additional lectures.

  9. I don't think the general viewing public will jump for 50 let alone 150, George Lucas... http://www.cinemablend.com/new/Steven-Spielberg-George-Lucas-Predict-Movie-Industry-Implosion-38049.html

  11. Question. Had the original iPad for four years. Going to be upgrading. Seems like the iPad mini is more portable and still great for reading. Thoughts?

  12. Forget Grumpy cat, there needs to be a movie made from this http://prancercise.com

  13. JEMIYAH JONES & THE FAIRIES OF NIR – THE AWAKENING OF BALIEKAH PEARL. Forget the 1st 10 rule -- I lost interest during the title!

  15. So...anyone hearing the grumblings on Thor 2 re: Alan Taylor and run time? I, personally, would enjoy a two hour thirty minute cut...

      Superhero sequels suffer to compete against origin stories. Powers are fun but HOW they get them is always more entertaining. Smart sequels focus on the origin story of the most interesting villain.

  16. Any idea why Columbia is holding so many advanced screenings for THIS IS THE END? I was just invited to the third one in as many months.

  17. Hard to write when your muse is sleeping. Even harder when she has a hangover.

  18. you know how much of screenwriting is simplifying? i'd say most of it

  19. TIMECOP REMAKE should be about someone going back in time to stop the making of the original film so the remake feels fresh.

  21. If a magician entertains everyone in his audience that isn’t a magician... and said magicians say the show sucked... did it REALLY suck? Or did the magicians’ overawareness of how the tricks are done cloud their ability to sit back and enjoy the show?

      Big fan of YSH too and great point about CGI. Even laymen have turned to experts on that, and I can't even fathom what can trump CGI.

      I agree the best stories work on both levels. But only experts let knowledge of story mechanics impact enjoyment. The laymen just wants to be entertained. They notice a LACK of story mechanics (if the story sucks) instead of things being too transparent. Just because laymen are easier to entertain it doesn't mean they settle for mediocre writing. They just don't give shit about the same thing's experts do. And neither did experts before they became experts =)
