  1. Kind of Surprised the $1 Million David Ayer WWII Spec Script 'Fury' is still M.I.A.

      I was under the impression QED paid the best price for it, implying others were able to bid on it as well. These million dollar scripts tend to turn up is all.

  2. What does everyone think about Final Draft app and the Ipad? I know they just came out with the app. Seems like this is the perfect writer combination. Would the Ipad be intuitive for writing scripts? I don't have an Ipad.

      bluetooth keyboard makes it easier. Glad I can copy and paste from index card app and outline fast on the Go.

      bluetooth keyboard makes it easier. App isn't as robust as the desktop but I don't mind that. Glad I can copy and paste from index card app and outline fast on the iPad

  5. Anyone know any insider dirt about the Rich Ross firing or have any good insight not seen in other reports? Do you think he should have been given more time to prove himself?

    1. Roark

      Maybe he shouldn't have fired everyone that could have helped him make the transition to features. It takes a Village.

  6. Anybody else read Wheeler Dealer? Can't upload my watermarked copy.

      Just wanted to know if anyone else hated it as much as I did. So superficial and shallow, no surprise Ratner is attached.

  7. Also had to read revised LAYOVER with Hoeber brothers revisions and Run All Night for a director. #smh

      Zach Dean, didn't read the OG draft. Straightfoward action movie, decent gunplay. CBS Films material.

  8. Maybe late to the party but really enjoyed Blood Mountain. Stokes is such an elegant writer.

      regardless of the plot interpretation, it's still elegant writing.

  10. Anyone have a SXSW party grid?!

  11. Wonders aloud... who's seeing Sucker Punch this weekend? We'll be at the midnight screening on Thursday!

    1. Roark

      Early reviews are as expected: Visually stunning but completely hollow. Zack Snyder movies are perfect this time of year. Will see it with expectations in check. Say no to IMAX up-conversion however.

  12. So is the JMS script "Voices from the Dead" what came out of the pitch "Edge of the Unknown" or are these actually two separate projects?

  13. Wow, had no idea Wonder Woman could be that bad. Worse than Bionic Woman.

      You don't like the pop diva Wonder Woman? #gasp

      It's total pop cultural trash. Would be better if she just spinned around like a go-go dancer in her disco outfit to top 40 tracks.

  15. Jonathan Demme, Mark Romanek and Fuqua are now doing pilots. Crazy world we live in.

      You get guys like John Dahl and Jon Avenet doing a ton of television even though they may have done features. Then there's guys like Danny Cannon who's whole career is based on Directing/Producing Pilots.

      Just shows how the sugar tit of Hollywood Features is over. Pilots are a great deal for a Director if they can land them, just amazed about Demme and Romanek more than Fuqua.

  18. reasearch, research and more research.

    1. Roark

      Would never let the truth get in the way. I absolutely adore doing research. I could do it forever actually like a character in Synecdoche, New York.

  19. Thought the bridge was OK btw, but it's nothing better than a CBS Films B Movie without something to elevate the material.

    1. Roark

      Roark

      Thought it did the little things right, but without something thematic to elevate the material you're looking at a Simon West directed action flick.

  20. Kevin Smith is like Piggy in the Lord of the Flies. Love watching the world turn on him.

      I hate that fat man. Wish he'd just retire already. There is no way people pay $60 for a screening and a Q & A on his roadshow.
