      He didn't write the script...Just the novel. I'll have to see what happened to it Craig. Otherwise I'll re-read it and see if it still holds a place as my favorite script still waiting to be produced.

  1. Bitter Script Reader hit the nail on the friggin head today. Gives us unsigned folks some hope :).

  2. Black List - Better than last year. Incredibly hilarious in many ways.

  3. Black List 2016 predictions: every celebrity that died in 2016.

      We barely managed it here in Chicago. I'm a life-long Cubbies fan and I'm thinking that after that game, I might never need to see another baseball game ever again. Nothing will ever top that.

      Congratulations, it must feel pretty remarkable. I'm reminded of that great quote from Almost Famous - "They don't even know what it is to be a fan. Y'know? To truly love some silly little piece of music, or some band, so much that it hurts." You can say they same about being a sports fan - it's really difficult work.

      Unbelievable now they didn't make it with Banks, Santo, Jenkins, Williams, etc. but they certainly did it in memorable style this time around!

  5. Black List in a few hours....

  6. Black Swan was quite enjoyable.

  7. Bought 1 story note for the indie and 2 full coverages for my other two (amazing deals!). This is going to be an awesome year!

      Well done, CB. Thanks for posting this - I would have missed that sweet deal.

      Another mystery is why writers believe that someone who has chosen anonynomity is a) in the position they claim to be or B) will help launch their career.

    3. Nic.Lishko

      Nic.Lishko

      Agreed.

      But either way, looking at the list, the one about make synchronised swimming sounds hilarious!

      Some have props. Some of our fellow TBers know them. The only way your career will move is writing a great script, IMHO.

  8. Browsing round for my next sweet sweet Member Review. Thoughts? Completely off topic, I love The IT Crowd. Just throwing it out there.

  9. Can anyone recommend paying for imdbpro?

      Zoned

      yes. it's owned by Amazon, btw. also, u can use pro on your iPhone or iPad devices. Handy info to have on-the-go. Haven't had any problems in the years of using it - THUMBS UP.

      The 2-week trial is a good idea, but I recently cancelled my Pro subscription and moved to Its On The Grid. The back catalog type listings are great, but I found projects currently in development often lacking. Worse, I consistently found personnel listings to be inaccurate, often missing months-old Exec moves which had even been reported in Variety.

      Our film office actually closed in July :D. That's why I was trying to find another resource. Thanks all the info everyone!

  10. Can I get a script recommendation? Trying to read two more before the month is over...

      just posted Pandora

      Nic.Lishko

      Thanks Cole! I had already read this one actually. One thing I remembered immediately was how sparse the descriptions of the minor characters and how they were all unique. I'll read it again for sure. Thanks for the post!

      Fiction, I'm downloading it now.

      it seems war of the worms is gone...

  11. Can't tell if that's cocoa...or coffee...but it looks good.

  12. Can't...stop...watching...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hNCmb-4oXJA

  13. Catwoman? I mean I want to trust Nolan and Goyer....for now though, I'm out.

      I trust Nolan. He gave The Joker, Scarecrow, Ras Al Ghul and Two-Face such interesting interpretations that I have faith he'll do something great with Bane and Catwoman. It likely won't be an obvious choice -- but one that embodies pathos and something darker. I can't wait!

    3. DarkDestroyer

      DarkDestroyer

      I'm betting that Nolan and Goyer used or were influenced by "Dark Victory". Jeph Loeb wrote a terrific Selina/Catwoman story.

      I was talking to my roomate about it. We agreed that if this somehow turned out to be Hush the Movie, it would be amazing.

  14. Clickclickclickclickclickclick

  15. Clocking in at 89 pages, the fastest first draft I've ever done for my first Horror/Thriller. It's not great by any means, but hoorah, it's done. FOR NOW.

  16. Congrats to Dustin and Em and DIETGREENTEAJASONFACE. You guys rock! If I missed someone, it's because I don't know your name :D

      Well done all. Maybe see your names Monday!

  17. Contemplating camera purchase for web series. Looking heavily at 60d to save cash...

    1. Cyber Hater

      Cyber Hater

      thinking same thing. my boys say cash wise rebel550 is cheap/effective. if u wanna be crisp, canon 7D. if u want david finched jr/on budget, canon 5D. then there is the coveted canon1D

       

    2. Nic.Lishko

      Nic.Lishko

      For sure. The t2i is going to be ridic cheap at Best Buy on Black Friday. We're trying to get one under 1500, but yeah I wish I could get the 5d. Rather spend the budget on other stuff...

  18. Contenders for best script you've read all year?

      I'd definitely go with Ruin -- loved that script. And Evil Goes West -- just cuz it stuck with me.

      Hi Charlie. Kindly add me to the list. It's about time I grow as a writer through peer exercises like this one. Thanks
