I haven't read any of the scripts, but can I make a guess as to who wrote one, based on the feedback?


Guess who's back? Back again?

Quoted from greg


I'll put together a list of the top 10 or so that I felt were the best rounded later today.  In terms of effort there were about 8 or so which showed little to none of it, with the Cabin taking the cake.


I think Peacemaker should win.

It could be a contest for worst script written, though...

I'm getting seriously pissed at reading all these fucking shitty scripts that have taken any seriousness and learning experience and camaraderie out of the OWC. Don't think for a second that I will not hold this against you writers when you are revealed. Thanks a lot!!!!!   >

I think for us who have been here for a while and can remember what the OWCs used to be like, this one has been a disappointment. The comments are short and often not very helpful to those who did make an attempt at this. I sound like an "old" person complaining how it was better in the old days, but when it comes to the OWC it definitely was. At least to me. Back then, when there were fewer entries and everyone did their best, the comments were proper reviews for the most part. I think, I learned the most from those comments on my entries. So yes, I am very disappointed.  For all of us who reads all of them, it takes a lot of time that we probably would have liked to spent doing something else.

I still need to work my way through these, but I'm going to recommend reading these ones right now and I know there are others I will also recommend later, but this is a whack load of scripts to process.

In no particular order:

A Few Moments of Your Time

Dumb Animals

PETA

Bleeding Green

Chinese Take Out

and YES...

No Meat

A hilarious romping pOrnicious and pErnicious thing that I enjoyed. The way it sits on the page is the way it should sit on the page! Bad formatting and all. What you see is what you get! No one's been disappointed yet! 'Cept Gbrate.

This one's for him! Here's to ya!

I've read them all, I think, and my two favorite by far are Mythos and Dumb Animals.  They just seemed to be a notch above the others, IMO.

For the awesomely bad, my vote has to go to Wolves at the Door.  I still couldn't tell you what it was about, but it's the first time I've ever seen "etc., etc." used as dialogue.  That's some twisted genius right there.

Mythos will be my next read. I think I'll be paying a lot of attention to Ryan.  And I like that name. Hope R & V get pregnant and I'll recommend it if they have a son.   If it's a girl, maybe Reanna. I like that name too.

Wolves at the Door also has the to be the first script in which I've seen a character described as...

"He looks like a combination of Richard Gere, Harry Hamlin, and Richard Grieco, but with worse hair, and not as rich or popular (even though Richard Grieco isn't very popular anyway)."

Funny shit!

Amen to that. Then stuff like this happens:


Quoted from James after reading the horrible Cabin script

And with that, I stop reading until the names are posted. This was a complete farce of a OWC and it's extremely tiresome to read so many jokes that are actually close to fifteen pages.



Be excellent to each other
