      NOPE. Everything is sacred until it makes people money.

  4. I need to know if anyone's seen a structural paradigm for a one hour TV drama? Like a Blake Snyder beat sheet but for TV. I can't find one, could use help. Thanks!

      The breakdown is simple: have a good story to tell and great characters to tell it well.

  5. My cousin just lost his shit after seeing the trailer for "I Declare War" proclaiming his script was stolen. Does anyone have the script to read?

      Don't have the script, but I've seen the movie (which is excellent). On what grounds does he think it was stolen?

  11. Pitch Black and Chron of Riddick made $168 mil total WORLDWIDE and yet they're making a third movie? Do dvd sets of trilogies really do that much business? What's the business plan here?

      Why do they need a business plan? They want to and they can.

      Hey Cyber, don't know if you noticed but via mobile phones and tablets, you can even read the entire library without ever even needing to use one of your downloads. Literally by opening them, and just reading them there.
