  1. Saw a promo for NBC's new series IRONSIDE. I initially thought it was one of those fake Adult Swim commercials.

      I heard that the audience testing for the pilot was "we don't like the wheelchair" so the series is lots of flashbacks to walking.

      I'm blaming the RZ53 asteroid for us suddenly having protocols. Post whatever you want.

  3. Anyone have any lookbooks or scripts with them inside? I know Can A Song Save Your Life kind of has one in the first three pages....

      I've seen a lot of them but I don't have any that I can find to post. What are you looking to do?

  4. While I understand the frustration that must come with getting constantly criticized by such an established fanbase, Orci saying "As I love to say, there is a reason why I get to write the movies, and you don’t." comes off a bit douchey doesn't it? http://www.cinemablend.com/new/Star-Trek-Darkness-Writer-Bob-Orci-Kindly-Tells-Fans-F-k-Off-39385.html

      What's with this movie? Now JJ Abrams is acting like an ass about the video game tie in.

      He couldn't read a parking map. It might explain a lot about his scene direction.

  6. Script I worked on all summer and turned into Universal? Turns out a title with a "the" in front of it sold last month for a tv series. I think mine is still different enough...:/

      I don't think it's a bad thing at all to show that you're on-trend when applying for a fellowship.

      Rush was good. The last section better than the first. But it was a bit of a wig and odd accents party.

  10. Uh oh! J.D. Salinger's got some new books coming out. Paul McCartney and Ringo better hire some bodyguards just in case.

      The trailers for the Salinger doc and the Beatles' fan club secretary doc ran back to back last week when I saw a film. CIA plot?

      I saw it a few months ago. Good movie? No. But it's not cynical or smug. And it's not trying to sell your kid a toy. I can get the appeal.

      Oh no, I was the one who sent him to the Depot.

  13. 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!

    1. sangun

      sangun

      Any sort of paradigm that exists for the bulk of tv is one built by how each network sells and places advertising. One CBS crime show is pretty much identical to another CBS crime show.

      The most interesting thing about RD is Bryan Zuriff's plea bargain. You can't say that the show doesn't know anything about the mob.

      A friend has a theory that at some point the studios will figure out how to give an audience exactly what they want and kill everyone in the process.

  17. saw the trailer for the YA novel adapted movie Divergent. Looks even worse than the hunger games.

      Evan Daugherty adapted Divergent and Brian Duffield is doing the sequel so at least the writers are on trend.

  18. I don't recall ever seeing so many columnists flocking to be contrarians as I have with this Ben Affleck/Batman thing. It's quickly becoming a cliché.

      Nah, it's capitalism. It's just a way to drive angry traffic to your ad supported website.

  19. Thanks to this Ben Affleck casting decision, children everywhere will be under the impression that when Bruce Wayne isn't masquerading as Batman, he's masquerading as a blind attorney named Matt Murdock who's masquerading as the Daredevil. Haha!

      sangun

      Affleck masquerading as another character in the same movie is the only way they can convince you he's acting.

  20. hey people in LA - anyone know how I can get some help moving a couple things into my new place in silver lake? where's a good place to call for hired help? also, if anyone wants to volunteer to help me instead, i'll buy you a big sandwich and beer. i only have a bed and TV that need moving i think.

      It's not organized. It's really just a bunch of guys looking for work. A friend did it recently and got 2 guys for 2 hours for $80. Name what you want to pay and pick people who don't creep you out.

      Using the guys outside of Home Depot is like being in a zombie movie. They swarm your car. I've always had good luck with them though and it's a lot cheaper than going through a company.

      If you have a Home Depot or a U-Haul or another moving company near you there are usually day laborers out front.

  25. Any thoughts on Low Winter Sun pilot episode? I caught bits and pieces of it and other than the fact it tracked the script, I haven't decided what I think of it. (Breaking Bad was incredible, of course!)

      It's like having a designer handbag. And Brits treat it all more like a job and less like a way to be famous.
