    Stupid question here: I'm working in MMS, how do I format it to get rid of the extra space between lines of dialogue. I see this all the time now and I can't believe I still don't know how to do it. Help, please!

      benskelly, this is probably not what you want to hear, but next time around, try Fade In. I've used them all for many years and it's the best out there. It's also inexpensive and there's great/fast email support.

    I'm contemplating a move to a Macbook after not finding a PC laptop I really like. I have a PC desktop, so the laptop will not be my primary machine. I'm looking for portability but need enough power for writing/surfing, maybe some Netfilx. I'd appreciate hearing users' thoughts on Macbook Airs and Pro retinas. Thanks!

      Thanks kvpiet. I hadn't seen that model, but I'm not a fan of HP laptops.

      Thanks, all! sbbn, I'm leaning toward the 13" MBP, too. I bought five laptops in the last 3 weeks, so we'll see which one wins. I've always used a PC, so it will be an adjustment if Mac wins out. Thanks again, everyone.

      George, it seems my comment was cut off due to some word count restrictions. I tried the Surface, but I can't use that keyboard. But thanks for the suggestion.

      Andrew, was that the end of your comment? If so, I can't access the rest.

      Thanks, Opie. Good to know. Looks like the latest version is 2011. MSFT office needs a refresh.

      Anyone using the Air? I'm leaning toward the pro, but thought I'd ask for opinions from other writers.

      I'm not concerned about the cost, Opie. I'll spend whatever I have to for work. I've looked at a lot of PCs and have been a PC user forever (never owned a Mac and despise the iPhone and iPad). But the MacBooks look great and feel more solidly made than the PCs I've looked at. I'd love to find a PC, but I haven't had luck. Preminger, very interesting. The one thing that bugs me on the Mac is the lack of two separate keys for delete and backspace. Ugh. George, I looked a...

    So they paid Seth eight million for this tsuris? I wonder if his next big wacky edgy concept will be quite so welcome.

      My bad, Muki. The way theaters are reacting is pathetic and telling idiots that they will get what they want simply by making threats. I'd be first in line to watch this movie just as a "fuck you" to whoever did the hacking.

    I need a new lightweight 13-14" laptop (I'm not interested in Macs). Anyone using one they love? I'm looking at the Yoga 3 Pro and the Asus UX301LA, but open to other suggestions. Thanks in advance!

    Didn't want to hijack Fsalmon's post about Serial, so adding this post. I'm new to podcasts (other than film-related ones). Do any of you have any great podcast recommendations?

    Variety gives Interstellar an unqualified rave and 'instant classic' status, comparing it The Wizard Of Oz and 2001. Here we go.

    I used to print up articles about my projects from Varety or THR and have them mounted, but now things are primarily just reported on Deadline. Do any of you print Deadline articles? If so, what's the best way to go about doing that so it's high-res and clean of ads, etc.?

    I enjoyed watching Tyrant tonight, but what a blatant copy of The Godfather. Barry is Michael Corleone with a dash of season 1 Walter White. Jamal (modeled after Uday Hussein) will make a great rival to Barry.
