PISSER! There's a character named Pisser in this script. Cool. Was this overwritten on purpose?

I liked this one. I think you could have condensed more of the action where Johnny is one-upped and maybe played more on his redemption. I wanted to see some kind of redemption but that fell a little flat. The more Johnny was one-upped the funnier it got. Nice job.

I liked the intro and the Johnny character.

There's one big problem here for me: some scripts deal with a lot of extras, which is fine; but here are like 25 characters jumping in, having lines, appearing, and then disappearing forever. Does not work for me at all, but others seem to love it, so what...

I know I'm not exactly a regular around here, but I figured I'd own up to this one.

Was just a seed of an idea that I sat down and tried to flesh out.  I was gonna do a once over to try and add "laugh out loud" moments, but i thought the "humorous" tone worked.  

thanks to all who liked it.  appreciate it


I'd list my "work" here, but I don't know how to hyperlink.  

"Career" Highlights
-2, count em, 2 credits on my IMDB page.  
-One time a fairly prominent producer e-mailed me back.  
-I have made more than $1000 with my writing!
-I've won 2 mugs... and a thong.  (polaroids of me in thong available for $10 through PM)

Great work mate, also I'll reiterate my compliments on the use of Bonnie Tyler. If there's one thing I never saw coming from this challenge it was the husky voiced Welsh one

Yeah, good job.  How did you like some of the other scripts?

The idea of a world full of "useful" superhero types was a cool one in dead.  It'd be easy to shoot.  Easily one of the best (IMO).

Dan

ps, so what was the life bearer?  You didn't seem to have aliens, so, I didn't get why that was even in the script.


Please read my scripts:
http://www.simplyscripts.net/cgi-bin/Blah/Blah.pl?b-series/m-1427564706/

I'm interested in reading animation, horror, sci fy, suspense, fantasy, and anything that is good.  I enjoy writing the same.  Looking to team with anyone!

Thanks
Dan

i'd be lying if I said I put a ton of thought into it.  I guess I just wanted to allude to the fact his power derives from the sun Superman style, but he never really has a chance to use it.  "Power Giver" didn't have a good ring to it.  I guess I should have said "power source" or something, b/c "life" is confusing.  ... plus, i was just trying to be cute i guess.
