Aw, nuts. I overshot the mark. I was aiming for 12 pages for some reason...

Now I need to cut something.

Tell me about it.  

Got it down to 10 and two-eighths. I think I’ll leave an orphan or two just to give him something to gripe about.

Well, I'm out.

Go a couple of fairly funny scenes, but still can't get a basic premise together.

Good luck to all.

Looks like I'm out.

9 1/2 pages, perfectly formatted, great characters, amazing story/plot, shockingly romantic and funny as Hell.

The problem is that it's just way too good to submit and I don't want to make everyone else look so bad.

I guess I could add some orphans, misspell some words, change some Slugs so they're completely senseless, and just basically make it look like the others will, but I don't want to write a pisser...or...should I?

Looks like I'm out. I just saw a preview of Mark's(Irisheyes) script

9 1/2 pages, perfectly formatted, great characters, amazing story/plot, shockingly romantic and funny as Hell.

The problem is that it's just way too good to submit and he's gonna make everyone else look so bad.

HA!!!  Yes!

I hope to throw out a bunch of glowing reviews, and after my Rams decimate the Patriots on Sunday, I'll be in a very giving mood.

Umm... That would be the opposite of a review on one of yours. Yours reviews normally include, in no specific order...

I’m out
Are you serious?
Not for me
Made absolutely no sense
Reads like a pisser
Etc, etc, etc...

I think people will find mine mildly amusing but not LOL funny.  But i feel like most of the rom com’s I’ve seen would fall into that description.

On another note, i could see a large percentage of these shorts actually getting made.


Some of my scripts:

Bounty (TV Pilot) -- Top 1% of discoverable screenplays on Coverfly
I'll Be Seeing You (short) - OWC winner
The Gambler (short) - OWC winner
Skip (short) - filmed
Country Road 12 (short) - filmed
The Family Man (short) - filmed
The Journeyers (feature) - optioned

OK, I guess I better start thinking about this thing.  Hopefully, I can get it going tomorrow.

I'm planning on entering at least 2, one being a sequel to an earlier short romcom of mine from an OWC long, long ago.

And maybe a 3rd about Stevie and the tale of the short shorts.
