If I'd grown up on a farm and was retarded, Bruges might impress me, but I didn't, so it doesn't.

May Quick Man be your muse and grant you many...uh, boomerangs?

how bad do you WANT IT

PFB - Pretty Funkin Bad.

Logline? Wait, you said it was crappy! Pass...

Sounds good. Whatever you decide. Is it a rotating thing where each member gets a chance to choose a script or by votes, what?

Love to start next week. Posted a few suggestions for organizing on chit chat.

Excellent! I'm all about each member choosing for the first round and then starting off the discussion

But it's got Corey Feldman... so it's awesome forever.

Don't 4get 2 add in "Explorers" to round out the collection, Chuck. Monster Squad is tight though, "Wolfman's got nards!" I hope you feel better, soon, Chuck.

Hey Nic shoot me a message. Your mailbox is full.

Would be great. I'm living in Thailand now.

Dan was in the last one actually. He just needs notice. I'll send him a message.

I hope to drop in whilst watching the footie! I miss you guys!

Damn that script is parafraphy.

watch there come out a jenna marbles movie in like 2050.

Where are the rights for the biopic now?

Perfect!

Yes, CB, all in on monthly script talk!

sounds good to me as well.

Yeah it's a bit of a mixed bag. The tips are useful but nothing you haven't heard before. It's better than I thought it would be.

Wasn't for me.

Thanks for all the thoughts! I think I'll hold off...

Hope Dan has seen this...

those are some long toes

Size 15 Opie.

Kenny is a great Aussie film - pretty much all about the guy that cleans those toilets you see at festivals. V. Australian humour though - not sure it did too well overseas.

keep it up!

get r dun

Thanks everyone!

Thanks for the rec, CB. I'll check it out!

Instead of paying for coverage have you thought of joining a writing group? I'd love to start one in LA with members of the board if anyone's interested.

writer's groups are tricky. i've been in a few, and the experience can be extremely helpful, but can also quickly devolve into "too many cooks in the kitchen."

I don't actually live in LA ClapYourKnees (yet), but based off of your recommendation, I'll see if there's any local ones in my area!

Presumably they intend to cut after the initial draft the network reads, as an excuse to include ideas they could repurpose for later episodes, or to test out characters/plotlines that might be iffy. A TV writer friend told me a good length for a spec pilot is 65 pages. I've seen shooting scripts for recent hour-long dramas (regular episodes, not pilots) that are as short as 42.

Whoa, nice!

congrats!

Danke. I'll post it when I can

If you looking for a place to get quality coverage on your script - the BL is not your huckleberry. Franklin himself has said that the BL's purpose is not to provide coverage. It can get eyes on your script - but even then, with great scores, there's no guaranty anyone's going to care.

I know someone who got her first job as a staff writer after a successful script posting on that site. In addition to being a talented writer, her script was about something unusual which I think made it easy to talk about and helped brand her and leverage her success. The show she got staffed on was a natural fit with the subject of her screenplay.

An 8, two 7's and a 6. Final thought? Consistency confusion. The 8 versus the 6 was as if the 6 read the praises of the 8 and decided those were the worst parts.
