    What age did you start writing? I mean actually writing scripts, in screenplay format?

      Late comer, I started at around 29. I completed a full script and then it sold immediately.

    On phone with producer regarding comedy series. He wants us to cut down on the drama, but wants "drama like stakes" in the pilot. #WTF

    So in the new STAR WARS trailer, why does Luke say "My father HAS it..." implying Vader is still alive?

      He re-recorded the dialogue

    Hey guys. Got a bunch of A-list agents waiting for the english version of my script before a fortnight. Any advice on whom would be best to fast track typos corrections of 110 pages in about two days?

      LOL, Cannes is coming, so fingers crossed for an attachment -- maybe more.

    New iPad EXTREMELY light and thin. Perfect for reading scripts with one hand. Compared weight to original mini and it was barely heavier. But, full size screen viewing without needing a stand for thickness or weight. Cool!

      I have the precedent generation, no worry, just pointing out they have a bit less autonomy.

    Copyright question for you guys. I was thinking of (loosely) basing a script on one of Isaac Asimov's short stories which is, of course, copyrighted. Anyway I can use it? I'm not planning on stelling or anything, probably just put it on YouTube.

      Fan fiction is tolerated. You have Marvel and DC fanfix all over youtube, they won't sue you unless you make 5 millions views.

    If at first you don't succeed, make another Green Lantern movie, because WHY WOULD YOU TRY AN ORIGINAL CONCEPT INSTEAD?

    1. David Fakrikian

      David Fakrikian

      Guys, producers just want to make sure their movie get made. They would do originals if originals would get financed. They don't, so they rehash things instead.

      LOL, thanks. I think it's interesting to promote a spec via a short film, we will see how it goes.

      It's a transmedia project so there is the graphic novel(s) by John Higgins too which are prequels to the movie.

      Yes PJ the short is set in 1794. The film is set in 1800 and there are flashbacks from the revolution in it, it forms the backbone and resonance of the story.

    story endings with protagonists walking away from camera, resuming an argument or banter or repartee? It seems like a convention (like riding off into sunset), yet I'm stuck for examples.

    Edge of Tomorrow is really great, original sci-fi. Highly recommend!

      Matrix is Dark City done manga HK style. Aliens is Starship Troopers and Starship Trooper is Aliens. Robocop is Terminator and Terminator is Outer Limits. The only difference is the talent behind them all. What makes all those unique?
