"What's your point?"

Well, my point is, if your script starts to get hammered in the reviews, are you gonna pull it like you did your two OWC scripts?  As far as your showdown with James, you packed up and ran outta Dodge.

I'll read both of the scripts if this thing gets approved, but no one wants to see you have another meltdown.  

So good luck gunnin' down big, bad Baltis.  The deadliest pistoleer in all the west, they say.  So mean he once shot a man just for snorin.'

I'd like to read these just because I'm curious as to how this thing will turn out.  

I will be 100% unbiased.  I have absolutely no problem with Balt or Screenrider, but if yuo don't want me as a judge, I understand.

The thing is, you need to have judges who know what they're talking about, otherwise, this makes no sense at all.

That is true Jeff.  Very true.  

@Greg, I'll tell you how it ends right now because it's already been written -- My script nailing Mike's to the cross.

Yahweh dna for the win!

Oh poor Ryan.   You'll never let me live that one down will ya.    Sounds like you've got a chip on your shoulder.  Not to mention you're confused.   That OWC thing between me and Jwent was never my idea.  It was bogus to begin with.   I wanted to meet him one on one ( in a showdown like this- scripts submitted directly  to Don - the right way)

It was his idea to incorporate our little grudge match into the OWC.   Bad idea.   So if you wanna say I packed up and ran outta Dodge then take a number, pal, because here I am.   Ready to go.  After I knock Baltis' script out of the ring then you can step right up and be next.  

Quoted from Baltis. Mike, or David, would rather attack Goliath here than take on someone more his speed.  The judging would have to be as unbiased as it can possibly be for this to go down.  Face it, over the years I've not been a fan favorite around here... And when you have an ego like mine that's to be expected. I'd say you have the advantage of board power on your side mike...

Not even close.   I'm probably one of the least fav's on this site.   Just ask Jwent.  

My script may go over a couple pages in length as well.  No biggie.    Still waiting for Don's approval on this Showdown.   Fingers crossed. ready to go.

Baltis is goin' down in the first round.  

"Mike, or David, would rather attack Goliath here than take on someone more his speed."  


- not sure if you want to use that comparison...Goliath did go down, after all

Only if you're christian.

Quoted from screenrider I'm probably one of the least fav's on this site.   Just ask Jwent.

I'll second that. I think there should be something at stake. I liked Bert's idea of the loser having to leave the site for a week. I don't have a problem with Baltis, but, I'd like to see SR make like his scripts... and dissapear.

Don't see what the issue is here...keeps the boards ticking along.

One thing:

What's the thinking behind all these 30 page shorts? Seems like a very long time for a short, really reduces the chance of festival presentation.

I noticed that Balt's got a few in his locker. Are you going to stick them together in an anthology or something?

I can sort of see a high level drama playing out in 30 mins in a fest, but a 30 page horror looks a tough sell.

I'm not worried about festivals at this point  I just wanna sharpen my sword and battle it out with, Baltis.    In the words of Charlie Sheen; "I'm gonna cut off his head, put it in a box and send it to his mom".

And before anybody blows that comment out of proportion just remember Charlie said it first.    Send him the hate mail.

I have an anthology series called "Hallows of Horror", which I toss my shorts into for copyright.  Usually 3 to 4 stories a pop.  Most at 25 to 35 pages.  I'm entering this script into shriekfest because I got a script entered into the features cat and wanted one in the shorts cat... And because it's really, really good.  Make no mistake, my script is a drama... It just blast you in the face with horror and suspense throughout.  It will, all hype aside, be worth the wait and time it takes to read it.

Trust me...

Quoted from jwent6688 I liked Bert's idea of the loser having to leave the site for a week.

Oh...I had forgotten about that.

And hey -- who told you about that, anyway?  I don't remember telling you guys about that idea....

At any rate, it would be nice to see some actual stakes involved instead of you guys just shooting spitballs at each other.

Only problem with loser leaves is they don't get to chime in when all is said and done.  So that naturally is going to upset Mike...

How about the loser critique everyone's several-page anonymous pisstake of their script?

How about the loser sends me a 1.75 L bottle of Jagermeister?
