I'm announcing this a few hours early because I have a bit of a conflict later.

According to Mayan prophecies the world is about to end on December 21st at midnight.  Therefore it makes a lot of sense to get in one more screenwriting challenge before that happens.  Right?


Here's the criteria.

Genre: Open

Theme: Your script must contain a prophecy.

  • The prophecy must not be the Mayan prophecy or related to the Mayan prophecy.
  • The prophecy can be as large or as small or as real or as fictional as you want.
  • The prophecy doesn't have to be the main story line but your story should not be able to exist without the prophecy.


Pages: 6 - 12

Budget: Open (but remember most filmmakers that frequent this site like low to no budget scripts).

Due: December 21st midnight - Eastern US time.


Now go write a screenplay, write it as if it were the last screenplay you'll ever pen.  Leave your legacy to the post-apocalyptic world.



And when you're done submit it here.  

Do not submit it to unproduced scripts use the following link...

**** This is not anonymous so put your name and copyright on your script.  The limit is one screenplay per entrant (though I doubt anyone will actually monitor that).

Well, that's pretty open!  Everyone should be able to work within these parameters, I'd say.

Comedy!

Thanks for the earlier start MC. It's Sat morn so I don't have to wait till this arve to find out like normal.

I recall hearing about a prophecy when I was in Arizona in 1997.

It mentioned references to a  'Bush that would rise in December 2012, then fall down in a drunken stupor.' And there was mention of ' Dreamscales let loose in the bathing areas of Rams'...

Hmmm, might be able to work these into my script....

Yup, very fair. Dena will submit no less than a dozen. The hardest part for her will be coming up with names for herself. I offer some help:

Dusty Carr
Yellow Fellow
Pale Shade
Tye Sharona
Florida Bones
Bo Tanical
Summer Storm

Ok, sounds like a fun one! Good set up.

I "prophecize" you will have at least 17 ideas, three of which will get written.

Thanks for the earlier start MC. It's Sat morn so I don't have to wait to masturbate like normal.

I recall hearing about a prophecy when I was in Arizona in 1997.

It mentioned references to a  'Bush that would rise in 2013, and become a great and mighty force.

And there was mention of the St. Louis Rams winning out the season and beating the Swiners in the opening round of the Playoffs.

Hmmm, might be able to work these into my script, but I'm worried about being too graphic when I write about pleasuring myself.  I know bestiality isn't all that popular in the states, but it sure gets me off!

Yeah, I'll pay that one, bro! Nice!

Seriously, this is a cool challenge. Should get a nice mix too, as we don't have to slot in rundown motels or wheelchairs and stuff.

Thinking of doing a horror and a comedy, see what happens.

Is it still anon, MC?

Sorry , just re-read your first post.

I'm going to do a gritty gangster script with dialogue that wants to be really cool, but hasn't been since the 60's.

I think I'll call it, "Killing them with a Hard On".

Sorry, have to go out a bit later so I had to announce it earlier.  Not taking part in?  That must mean you're only submitting one script.
