      Loved it (and the show) especially the slam of flash forwards.

  8. Here is your monthly reminder to back up all of your work! Jump drives, hard drives, clouds, phone etc. Use what you choose, but save your work!

      Another tip -- When asked if you want to overwrite, always check WHICH file is being overwritten. ie. Moving a new file to a USB stick, but you rush, and put the old file over the new one by mistake.

      What are you reading?

    2. Nic.Lishko

      Nic.Lishko

      Once upon a time scripts and a few episodes of The Middle.

  12. Tomorrow I start the drive to Los Angeles. Can't wait to move into my summer place in Studio City. I'm for sure in LA until September 1st. Can't wait to meet you people!

  13. Just now realized there's no Brit List this year. Sad.

      Those scripts were always so hard to find anyway... but yeah, it was good for a few random projects popping up..

      Did the Brits stop writing scripts? Wouldn't be surprised, with the state of the British film industry at the moment.

  14. Finally, a trailer for Burt Wonderstone. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0IvFfIpZ2yA

      It was a fun read, the final trick was fantastic I hope they've kept it.

      Broad comedy is BACK!

  15. The trailer for Side Effects (aka This Bitter Pill) was hysterical to me, because I know what happens on page 40ish...SPOILERS IN COMMENT

    1. Nic.Lishko

      Nic.Lishko

      Because channing tatum's character dies like 40 minutes into the film and the trailer made it seem like he would be in the entire film. What a strange pull out the rug from under ya kind of lead on!

    2. sangun

      sangun

      After the GI Joe: Retaliation debacle you apparently have to make sure Tatum doesn't die in your trailer.

  16. Read two great scripts on drive from CO to AZ yesterday. The Bitter Pill (slow, but ends strong) and The Death of Archer Newman (awesome, odd last page, better graphic novel than movie. Not sure how it would work...).

    1. ThaVillain

      ThaVillain

      How did you read two scripts while driving? I have trouble reading one text behind the wheel!

       

      In all seriousness, I couldn't get past the slow start of Bitter Pill. Maybe I'll give it a second chance. Gotta check out Archer Newman...

    2. Nic.Lishko

      Nic.Lishko

      You gotta balance the hacked TouchPad with the wheel...It can be done. Lots of quick swerves ;)

      I hear you, I hear you. Nothing even remotely interesting happens until page 42....THEN I couldn't put it down. Give it another go and let me know what ya think :D

  17. What I imagine moving to California will be like in a few months: http://www.hulu.com/watch/350669/saturday-night-live-the-californians#s-p1-sr-i1

      Great sketch. Too true. I know there's rumors of Kristen Wiig leaving, but now I'm wondering if Fred Armisen will leave, too? Portlandia is kicking ass and it just seems like on SNL now he's going for a Holy Moly in every scene, just not giving a shit and having fun.

    2. Nic.Lishko

      Nic.Lishko

      Love Portlandia!

  18. Saw the trailer for Detachment today. Looks CRAZY. Has anyone seen it?

    1. specwriter

      specwriter

      Why does it look crazy? You mean crazy good, since it has such an amazing cast? This wasn't on my radar, good to see Tony Kaye back (as I'm a big Amer History X fan). http://trailers.apple.com/trailers/independent/detachment/

    2. Nic.Lishko

      Nic.Lishko

      crazy good, yes.

  19. Perhaps I'll use a Death Cab for Cutie song title as my next spec title. Seems legit/like a good idea.

    1. Penelope

      Penelope

      It's a great idea and would be better than most of the crap titles that sold last year.

      Title and Registration and A Lack of Color both sound great to me.

      I also like I Will Posses your Heart or Unobstructed Views.
