If anyone sent it, I didn't get it. Can you try again? I NEED to read this one tonight. Please copy the entire text of the script into an e-mail, and send it to me at
radiomovie2002@yahoo.ca
I have no reason to care about formatting. I just want to read the thing. Sounds good. Please send me the text of the script. The suspense is palpable.
Excellent George!! I wanted to save a copy to my PC, but couldn't before. I will be re-reading this one again sometime soon, as I loved it that much!!
Can't wait to hear Wes's take on it.. haha. OK I MUST stop that. In the emails we have exchanged, I noticed this too, Don is right
George, I was moved for you and Bert when Don gave his feedback too! Made me do this -> Congrats to you both once again. Hope you both team up and write some more, as you work great together. Even if it's not Simply Noir 2, you clearly have natural flair as a pair or writers.

PS - If you haven't read it yet, read it now dammit.
I'm coming in late in the game here but I guess better late than not at all. (Don suggested I take a look at it)
Okay you guys took some liberties as I don’t remember saying anything about The A List, can’t say I understand how ha-ha would work on-screen as the way I’d say it is like the wrestler John Cena and or Jadakiss who say it this special way that makes it funny.
The Curse part reminded me of Butters from South Park when he watched that porno tape which was supposed to be Lord of the Rings and he turned into a Gollum like creature until the end.
It was a good read and has some things that if it were to be taken like every other one I’d bring up the fact that you introduce way too many characters and even some very late in the process..
My character may hate the A List but in this life I have no clue what it is, maybe I posted in its thread but I don’t think I’d ever read it especially if it was by the guy in the screenplay.
Some people may be offended by their characters but I really found my character minus the ha-ha to be somewhat like the person you’d expect me to be but of course we all come off different online than in real life.
Good work and I hope others don’t use this as a way to attack people because it’s a good idea. Frankly it would be funny if more people read Topher’s original idea and did it. I was going to write one with Balt as the central character but that’s gone to hell as he’s not considered a member anymore.
I thought you guys might have had a joke about the rabid name changes as of late and changing the name of the van everytime was kind of odd unless the meaning behind it was the name changing thing... could be, makes sense as I read it.
Oh and where was my love interest, even in a screenplay I have to be alone till the final curtains? Sigh.
PS I'm not obsessed with Banana Chan.
PPS Andy do Pirates get along with Dicks? Just wondering.

Changing the name of the van every time it was slugged was a gag that Bert came up with when he added the van. I just helped come up with enough terms for it.
Actually, I had a brief comment about the name changing thing, but it was too silly to hang on to. When Der Spieler shows up, I had him introduced at one point as "DR. MABUSE (fka DER SPIELER fka REQUIEM -- damn name changes!)." Of course, this would be impossible to convey on screen since it was in the description.
Well, Wes, as the central character I was wondering how you'd take it, and I am glad you didn't curse us to the ends of the earth. Liberties were, of course, taken all around. After all, I don't completely resemble my character in there either...my eyes aren't red.
I'm surprised you don't remember the A-List. It's under series and had a big to-do a while back concerning sock puppets.
No love interest? Well, we did want to leave it with SOME measure of realism, right?
Wow! Congratulations guys, excellent piece! I really enjoyed it despite the fact I don´t usually like comedies. Luckily I read many of the scripts involved (Fempiror Chronicles -part 1- The Farm, Pugumentary) so I could understand many of the character´s cameos.
There were lots of "spits coffee on the screen" moments. Some of my favourites:
SPOILERS
-The pug dancer. Evil genious. -All the haha´s were very good, but the first one was a very funny surprise. -Spectown. The slug alone was funny, and the description was even better.
Looking forward for sequels or prequels. Good job.
But you see now if I or anyone else wrote one of these we have this to live up to, that's a lot of pressure.
Wesley, I quite agree. I had to go back and re-read a lot of scripts and the discussion threads around the scripts to get everything (and I still missed some obvious references.
The one thing I did think you guys missed out on was Don, he could have done a lot more in the Godfather type of way instead of being killed.
I don't know. A certain person who I am related to by marriage and who has given birth to my sons noted that, "Don is slumped across his keyboard," was a pretty accurate characterization...
