My short horror story The Lake Erie Siren will appear this June in the Spring 2019 edition of Mad Scientist Journal.

The forum may have died, or perhaps its more due to the cliquiness on here that prevented new members from feeling welcome.

How surprising is this: "Jackie" has only grossed $13M and is now in RedBox, so I assume that means they don't expect to see more. I know the script was heavily praised when it first went out. On Rotten Tomatoes, 89% Critic score, 64% Audience. I tend to side with the audience meter more often than not. Discuss.

I thought the movie was going to start with the Kennedys landing in Dallas then leading all the way up to the shooting and immediately after. At least that would have showed something new, what it looked like from her perspective to be in that car. (They did show this but it was so brief!)
Instead what we got was the tired format of her getting interviewed by someone then having multiple flashbacks to scenes that all showcased Jackie being sad and stressed. There's only so...

The movie was essentially a vehicle for Natalie Portman's Jackie O impression.
It had amazing production values but the script itself barely covered any new ground. It showed a lot of "behind the scenes" moments that we already knew of. Primarily that Jackie was understandably upset when her husband was murdered in front of her.

Stupid question: what are the OWA's all about?

There's something crushingly confusing about reading great specs and learning from them, only to see them actualized in the theaters and get railed over by audiences and critics alike. Read: Nobody. Knows. Anything.

I was so shocked when the first Passengers trailer came out...it looked like a really expensive perfume commercial. Or like that fake movie they were talking about in Thank You For Smoking with Angelina Jolie smoking in space.
This is the second good script Morten Tyldum has made a bland realization of.

Enjoyed Fantastic Beasts yesterday, now I'm enjoy the screenplay book, which was 1/2 price when pre-ordered at my local Book shop. Only £8.50. Can't complain.

Fun Fact: If you ever go on Done Deal Pro, the Forum with the most eyeballs is always Agents, Lawyers & Managers. People want to look for easy answers outside of themselves.

Good Lord, I can't wait until the Black List comes out so I can read something interesting... It's dry as the Sahara out here...

Atlanta has the best writing on television currently. Sad we have to wait 51 weeks to see if it will win the Emmy for comedy writing.

So thoughts on the night of finale? I thought it was solid.

I'm sure I'm in the minority here and will probably get crucified for this, but I honestly do not get the hype for Stranger Things. It seems like the more people hype a show up all over social media the more let down I am by it when I finally get around to watching. Props to the writers for getting it going but I just was not engaged. Discuss.

I feel like the first four episodes were incredible but after
**SPOILER**
the body was pulled from the water it started to lose steam. I understand a lot of the show was homage, and it did that very well, but it felt like there wasn't any originality injected into the series.
Someone mentioned to me that Tarantino does the same, but at least he adds to what he's paying homage to.
This ended up feeling like the Girl Talk version of 80s cinema.

Feeling very cynical today. Working for a major was a childhood dream but tbh I can't stand the job
Time to find something else to do. -

Hi everyone, I just wanted to say goodbye of sorts, perhaps not forever. In a few days, I won't be renewing my TB subscription. I want to say thanks again to all the terrific members here and the happy sharing. Perhaps in a few months, I'll join back in. My Kindle is going to be hungry, I know... If anyone wants my email address, drop me a message in the next few days.
