This sounds interesting, a lot to live up to. Let's check it shall we.

Commodus: But the Emperor Claudius knew that they were up to something. He knew they were busy little bees. And one night he sat down with one of them and he looked at her and he said, "Tell me what you have been doing, busy little bee..."
The logline is the first thing I read and it doesn't pull me in at all. You need to seriously work on that. Not to mention stealing somebody else's idea. Couldn't you think of your own story?
"Stealing somebody else's idea" then how do you explain this script being on the site? There are plenty other scripts here, thought as remakes or sequels, or re-imaginings. This is a prequel, and if you check the script's first page, you'll see the 'somebody else's' name mentioned.

Ask that question to a Nick Romantini, who uploaded a script thought as a remake or John Carpenter's 'Halloween'. Same page.
As for me, no, I'm not stealing somebody else's idea, I just told you why. And there is only one company in the world that can produce this script. They know about the project.
JackF: There's a difference between a company knowing about the project and a company hiring you to write the script. You didn't sign any contracts/NDAs did you? Sharing, especially online, can hurt your chances of production.

It's a project? Wow. Congratulations on being commissioned to write the prequel.
You really shouldn't be posting it here though, I'm sure if you check your contract there will be some type of non disclosure clause.
To you Dustin, no, I wasn't commissioned to write this prequel, but I still wrote it and my representative submitted the script to the production company in London anyway. Let's say the project is on stand-by.
If they don't want to produce it, at least people here can see the script. I love sharing my stuff.
If this was a project and truly on stand-by, then you couldn't post it here, no matter how much you love sharing your stuff.
I took a look at the first page and it isn't written to a pro standard, I believe this will hurt your chances of this actually becoming a project. If you'd like to learn how to write better then participate here at the site and you'll pick it up.
