new trailer for the counselor. anyone know if it's been rewritten by someone else? mccarthy's draft i read was not very cinematic if i recall.

Why has the new Star Trek not beat the first one's opening weekend, even with 3D and Imax premiums and an 87% critics rating? It had the best trailer of the year. (No spoilers!)

Reading a script where "asthma" has been repeatedly been spellchecked to "Satan".

Any Shawshank Redemption fans here? Fyi we're doing a teleconference in 30 minutes, "Story Mapping Shawshank" with the I.S.A. Free: http://t.co/SJc6BPfReR

After several recommendations to watch A Simple Plan, I got a group together and watched it. 4 of the 5 people HATED it. Said they don't like movies that make you think. This is your audience talking. I liked it though...

AMC is bringing back THE KILLING for a 3rd season. Whyyyyy?!!

Today's entertainment: the comments on ScriptShadow!

I like the Hit List more this year because I'm on it. Love me for my shameless honesty.

48fps is not the way of the future by any means, unless you like Charlie Chaplin's speedy exaggerated motion.

Black List. Monday... via Twitter. *eye roll*

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

Anybody know what big script Carson Reeves is giving out for book reviews?

WOW (sorry for the caps, this is copied from a press release): AMC’S “THE WALKING DEAD” IS THE FIRST CABLE SERIES TO BEAT EVERY OTHER SHOW OF THE FALL BROADCAST SEASON IN ADULT 18-49 RATING “THE WALKING DEAD” ATTRACTS 15.2 MILLION VIEWERS FOR THE NIGHT SERIES DELIVERS 10.5 MILLION VIEWERS AT 9PM PREMIERE, UP 58% OVER LAST YEAR’S MID-SEASON FINALE

I laughed out loud at The Black List "but we didn't know he was our intern" press release.

Ever write that villain that's so fucked up you know he might just be your projection of your evil side?!

Question: I prefer printing out scripts and reading them in a variety of places. How do YOU read scripts - print copy, computer screen or Kindle-type tablet? The Kindle Paperwhite sounds intriquing, but it's just too small for my desired experience. Is there a simple, 8 X 11 PDF reader out there?

Over 100 new OWAs just hit the OWA forum. Get em while they're hot!

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.

Best figures one can find suggests the WGA registers over 70,000 pieces of material each year. That translates into 70,000 query letters/E Mails, 70,000 screenplay competition applications, etc. Remember that when crafting your script and wondering if it needs another rewrite. Because the answer is: yes.

Young and Hungry 2012 list up, wooooo!

Very happy to be part of the "Super Six" for 'TB Recommends' -- still getting reads on Nexxus and working on some new projects. Hopefully new reps will be part of the future. I love this site and everybody's honest feedback and support! Viva la TB!

My spec SAM DINKLE: SECRET AGENT went out today - fingers crossed!

It's really disturbing that the people in the theater shooting in Colorado thought the gunman was part of the marketing.

Hi folks... may I ask that for now on whenever you post a script in the File Exchange, even/and especially if it's an ISO fill, that you add a logline just like K. Ryans (and pretty much everyone else) does. It would be greatly appreciated, because I'm getting tired of downloading the script(s) only to find out it's a piece of crap unworthy of even using at the bottom of a bird cage. Like I said, I would greatly appreciate it (and I'm sure a lot of others too). Thank you.
