I got a message from the Blacklist that the 2020 list was out, but there was no attachment or link to anything. Did anyone get the list? Anyone got the scripts? If you do and you email it to me, I can guarantee you the OWC win regardless of if you entered or not.  

I'd like the BL scripts too, but Pia I always know where we can get it if all else fails...

Okay, quicker than I thought.
PMd you.

Thank you Libby! I now declare you the winner of the December OWC!!!  

Yay!  

Hang on you two... if you tell me where I can find the scripts I too will declare Libby the winner

For those interested...

I get an error on that link Pia ;-(

Hmm. I must be old. Can't even copy/paste anymore.

Go to Scriptshadow and in the comments, Scott Crawford always provides links to scripts Carson is discussing and in this case the Blacklist.  

Thanks Pia - will do

Carson has it posted on Script Shadow.

I still win the OWC though, cause I found it first and you said so.  

The Blacklist (BL) has always been a bit of an irritant to me.

I don't like the fact that Edwards also calls his paid script hosting site - The Blacklist - like somehow that is the entryway in. It's not. He could have called it anything else and should have. I'm cynical enough to believe that the potential confusion is purposeful.

I don't like the fact that it is characterized as the most loved unproduced scripts when in fact it is the most marketed yet to be produced scripts.  Year after year the list contains scripts that are already repped, and/or have talent (directors, actors. producers) attached and/or are already financed. AND it is always top-heavy with the size of the Agency (e.g., the largest agencies always have the scripts with the most votes because they get more votes).

So, when you hear stuff like scripts that 300 scripts that appeared on the Blacklist were made and XX number have won Oscars - you need to keep in mind that they already at some stage of being made when they got on the list in the first place.

And lastly this - there are some really solid scripts on each year's list. BUT - there are also far too many stinkers for this to be viewed as some filter of quality.

Long-winded way of saying it is not a quality exercise - it is a marketing one.
