Hey, Col. Thanks for reading and commenting, just like you said you would. I didn't realize there was a review here so I apologize for the late return.


Quoted from Colkurtz8
I really liked this, man. The confused comments that litter the discussion board here are all the publicity you need for this to get more reads,. The head scratching, questions and varying interpretations piqued my interest.

Thanks for the compliments, glad you enjoyed it.


Quoted from Colkurtz8
However I think more explanation is needed for the child suffering, It's only touched upon by Amali but not developed or reasoned. Basically its an "For every action there is an opposite and equal reaction" to put it in Newtonian terms.

But is that enough to warrant their blissful existence? I know this is a piece of adapted fantasy to begin with, but I think a greater background story or history as to how Omelia was originally formed is required to fully believe in the story. At 13 pages its too big a story to fully realize, it feels skimmed over in parts.

I agree to a point. Recently I have been thinking about this one again as I believe it has what is needed to turn it into a feature. I have not yet written a feature length script and am in the process of writing my first (which is why I haven't been around much lately). I think this one shows some promise and I will definitely be revisiting it when I get the time. My original ending had more of an explanation to the reason for the child being there but I ended up throwing it out to leave more to the reader's imagination. It seems that most people disagree with it so I will definitely have to rethink it.

Thanks again for your reading, your reviews are always very thorough and helpful.

James

No problem with the delay in your reply, your script it was well worth the read, thats what matters most.

"Recently I have been thinking about this one again as I believe it has what is needed to turn it into a feature."

-- To reiterate, I couldn't agree more. There is a whole alternaitve world to be explored here with the concept and the parallel existence of the Omelian civilization. I recommend you give it some serious thought, seee what you can flesh out..

Best of luck with any developments you may have with this, and your feature-in-progress.

Col.
