  1. Reading scripts at the WGA library. Damnit I'm so glad I moved out here!!

      What are you reading?

    2. Nic.Lishko

      Nic.Lishko

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

  2. Reading Situation Comedy. Note to author: if you're going to make a note that you're changing the format, but keep forgetting to change said format, it's kinda hard to know what's going on in the script.

  3. Reading When The Street Lights Go On. REALLY good 57 pages in..Updating member reviews all day...

      I love love love that script. The ending is killer and so emotional.

      Couldn't agree more. It's just crazy, because I thought things were over at page 80, but nope. One more shock.

      What I'm most amazed of is that melancholy vibe... feels something like The Wonder Years or Stand By Me... or even The Virgin Suicides.

  4. Really interested to see what this year's black list will bring. More than likely stuff I haven't read, because all I've read this year has been sh

      I'm counting it down as well. Won't be too much longer now...

      I enjoyed it at Sundance. Would recommend it.

      Everything Thomas McCarthy does is excellent.

  6. Renewed my tracking board for the year today. Most excellent. Prepare to be amazed by another year of my ramblings!

  7. Republic of Pie. Oh my.

      Hahaha - The pie was the least impressive for me as well -- especially the apple! But the coffee, the other pastries and the space are nice.

      Is this the new JJ Abrams Sci-Fi pilot or an actual place?

    4. Nic.Lishko

      Nic.Lishko

      lol. It was just a cool place to hang honesetly. I didn't buy anything. The name (as well as the status) reminded me of the movie Brick.

  8. Review of 300 Years is up. Super late to the party? Yeah, but I wanted to post some thoughts about a positive script experience.

  9. Reviewed 3 Knights in Chicago for the review section. If you want to actually laugh out loud at a spec, enjoy!!

  10. Reviewed Expiration by Brian Tucker and gave it a logline. Thanks for the idea TB Red!!

      Great. I emailed it to the guys. Great review btw!

       

  11. Reviewed Maleficent (spec with Angie Jolie attached) in the Member Reviews section. Check it out!

  12. Reviewed Reverie for my script of the month discussion. Looks like a solid summer show!

      It was one of my favorite pilot scripts last season and one I would have killed to get staffed on. I talk to Mick on twitter semi-regularly and can't wait to see how the show turns out.

      I just had the screener appear in my NBC media account. I look forward to checking it out.

      Let us know!

  13. Rick and Morty watchers, did this hit too close to home for anyone else? www.youtube.com/watch?v=xWSwWnsXKYI

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

      YOU WANT ME TO CUT TO THREE WEEKS EARLIER WHEN YOU WERE ALIVE??

  14. Rise of the Guardians was the biggest surprise for me of the year. I will totally see it again when it comes out and pay to see it in 3d. It was AMAZING.

      Glad to hear. My son is fired up for it. Not crazy about the look of it.

      Just goes to show how different everyone is.Saw it last night. No emotion for me in the story whatsoever.

    4. Nic.Lishko

      Nic.Lishko

      Marketing also did nothing for me. It was a free screening. Blew my mind.

      craig - it certainly does...

  15. Running through the black list making mean commentary with writing partner: "Okay, what's next...Jurassic Park...Wait, Jurassic Park!?"

      maybe just "angspiration"

    3. lauriestark

      lauriestark

      which autocorrect just changed to "angus pirating" which is also going in my vocab.

    4. Nic.Lishko

      Nic.Lishko

      LOL. Thank you for that Laurie :D. I think everyone can relate to using a little angerspiration.

  16. Saw Cold Weather this weekend. Not a bad flick. Very very slow.

  17. Saw Frozen last night. Met the writer/co-directors. Was awesome.

      CastorTroy16

      You met Adam Green…?

    2. Nic.Lishko

      Nic.Lishko

      Close. Chris Buck and Jennifer Lee.

  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. Script club chat tomorrow night to decide next week's script!

    1. Nic.Lishko

      Nic.Lishko

      That is to say, tomorrow in the abstract way. I'll be hanging around most of the day.

      ...

      Anyway, here's wonderwall.

      Hi CB, Might not make it for the chat 'cause I'm on holiday. My vote is on Blonde Ambition. But I'm pretty much happy to read anything. :)

    3. Nic.Lishko
  20. Script I didn't flip for - I Hope We Can Still Be Friends. Such an awesome premise that was poorly executed and a female character that felt waaaayyy too much like a dude.

    1. Nic.Lishko

      Nic.Lishko

      Also The Field. Was just hoping for much more than what it ended up being.

  21. 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...:/

      Send me your email George!

      Nothing is wrong with it Axalon. I've done it and it was great. Just don't want to keep paying when I got no job and no money. I will querify four management companies if I don't get the fellowship at universal I applied for. :-D

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

      Thanks Sanguine! I think you're right :D
