    Very excited to see how The Wall turned out on its conversion to the big screen! Going to see it bright and early tomorrow.

      Yes, loved the script!

  2. Pompalompa

    A lot of people really liked the passengers script (myself included). Nerdwriter has a very interesting take.

      Agreed. I was amazed at how just a simple edit with the footage already shot worked so well with this alternate narrative.

      BTW - If you gave the show a breathalyzer the BAC would be 0.18 or higher.

      Yeah, the characters do a whole lotta drinking on that show. I noticed that too. And most often as a anti-anxiety self-medication. What if you substituted getting high in every one of those drinking scenes.

    Any one using the blacklist to host your script refute a rating? I got a 4 along with 2 7s.

      I bought 2 reviews. Both came in at a 7 (with subcategories rated as high as 9) and both had some food for thought in the notes section. One review however had some accuracy issues (e.g. wrong locations). I complained and they offered a free replacement. Big, big mistake. That review came in at 5, thus sending a shiv into my overall rating.

    3. agkinowerken

      agkinowerken

      And not that it matters on the Blacklist but the script in question was a runner-up at Scriptapalooza a few years back. Lesson learned: think twice before requesting a replacement review.

    4. Pompalompa

      Pompalompa

      yeah it seems to be a real crap shoot. I brought this up because of some of the weakness didn't make sense and conflicted with my two previous higher reviews. They offered a half off review but I won't take it. Thanks again. Love this site.

    Any Good Post Apocalyptic Screenplays besides Z for Zach and Book of Eli?

      My Brother In Law loved it. Didn't really like playing it because he said it felt like a movie more than a game, but he really enjoyed the story

      There are several moments in The Last of Us that are absolutely wrenching. In a lot of ways it is like an interactive movie (I think it's six hours of cut scenes alone) but a damn good movie. It's one that you finish playing and wonder why there isn't more writing like it in screenplays. There should be.

      That dead-eyed, Opie-looking piece of shit?! ;-) But seriously, an actor known for being unemotive is being cast in the next Star Wars...not exactly encouraging.

  12. Pompalompa

    A lot of movies coming out tomorrow and already out in theaters. Going for a double feature besides the Wolf... any suggestions.

    1. sbbn

      sbbn

      Post your thoughts on Wolf. I'm curious. Orgies and drugs aside. (mostly)

      Brother got sick, couldn't see anything :(. And i haven't seen wolf yet. just didn't want to have a 3 hour movie included in a double feature.

    The hobbit was a mess. A big mess.

      We should keep in mind what all of these movies are really about: running. Lots of running. http://www.slate.com/articles/arts/culturebox/2013/12/lord_of_the_rings_running_supercut_to_celebrate_the_hobbit_the_desolation.html

      Not only are there probably two decent movies hidden in this makeshift trilogy, I'm looking forward to the inevitable cut someone's going to come up with that boils it down to one movie again, something that just more or less tells the story of the novel.

      Slate probably came the closest with their LotR/Hobbit "running supercut": http://www.slate.com/articles/arts/culturebox/2013/12/lord_of_the_rings_running_supercut_to_celebrate_the_hobbit_the_desolation.html

      I agree about the scared kid. That, to me, was the whole point. Him reliving it over and over and improving and finding his feet.

       

      Tom Cruise is fine, and with him they secured a huge budget, but I still wish they had stayed with the orginal concept.

       

      Great script.

      Read and loved the script. They've definitely changed some things. I'm hoping it's for the better. Guess I'll have to wait and see the movie.

       

      I agree with the comments saying it should have been a kid though. Most of the soldiers were young in the script if I remember correctly.

    Man does Channing Tatum look pretty in the Jupiter Ascending trailer... also the new godzilla trailer was quite disappointing

    1. axalon

      axalon

      I felt the exact opposite. I kept getting a Battlefield Earth vibe from Jupiter Ascending and thought the Godzilla trailer was really good.

    2. Pompalompa

      Pompalompa

      haha. interesting. channing tatum certainly looks like one of those aliens from Battlefield. but that godzilla trailer was such a cock tease

      I'm really excited for "Jupiter's Ascending".
