  1. Thanks for the pilot! Gotta see what went wrong. If NBC passes it must be bad, considering what they actually green light.

    - Cheers.

  2. Would love any info on tribeca as it comes out, PR people, events and the like.

    I found your festival coverage in Sundance very helpful and would appreciate it if you could round up any details and post them.

    Thanks.

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

      Which LAYOVER? The one by Zach Dean or the one about the kidnapping ring at the airport hotel?

      Good question - I was assuming it was the Zach Dean one (which didn't do much for me as written in the original draft).

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

  4. 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.

  5. Anybody got any party options for Palm Spring Film Fest Next week?

  6. Anyone have a SXSW party grid?!

      Pretty solid list here: http://www.eventbrite.com/sxsw but these guys probably have the whole thing: SXSWPartyList@gmail.com

      and here they are. It's $5 this year. But that's worth it if you ask me... http://www.sxshhh.com/

      Thank you good sir.

  7. David Slade the latest feature director to nab a Pilot. Gunna be hard out there for a pimp.

  8. I am very, very confused however as "Edge of the Unknown" seems EXACTLY THE SAME MOVIE as "Voices from the Dead" that sold today.

  9. Is this DJ No Hands sheridan?

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

      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.

      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.

  11. Kevin Smith is going to 4-wall his film? Good luck with that buddy.

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

      I thanked him for giving me new respect for Uwe Boll shortly after the Red State screening. He wasn't very nice about it. :)

      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.

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

    1. sangun

      sangun

      Was it really a spec and go out? I had assumed it was Lesher finding money at QED.

    2. Roark

      Roark

      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.

  14. 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.

  15. My bad, uploaded the pilot again in the Library.

  16. One was also sent The Bridge.

  17. PILOT SEASON!! Woo hooo!

      Now if only they will hire us too!

  18. RDJ in PTA's Inherent Vice would be perfect.

  19. reasearch, research and more research.

      Don't go too crazy w/the Nazis BoyNo -- I'm watching u lol

       

      But yeah, usually do 3mos of solid research, but remember - "never let the truth get in the way of a good story"

      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.

  20. That is, male actors in their 50's - features...

  21. That WME Memo was great. Much appreciated.

  22. The Raid delivers!

  23. The Raid delivers!

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

    1. Cyber Hater

      Cyber Hater

      Kinda with u... But thoroughly enjoyable

    2. 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.

    3. Cyber Hater

      Cyber Hater

      def needed more curveballs and higher stakes! But i liked the characters, thta's ALWAYS good

  25. Two different bosses both sent Game Theory this week. Making the Rounds I guess.
