Stamped, sealed, submitted.

I'm not going to guess how I did, I'll let the glowing reviews of why everyone closed it after reading the first two lines speak for that.

A belated congratulations to everyone that's posted here that they've finished and a congratulations to everyone else that's done and hasn't posted.

To everyone else still going - best of luck and hope you make it by the deadline!

I'll try my best to get through all of the entries next week. Wonder how many there will be. What kind of a turnout is everyone expecting with ~10 hours to the deadline? I'll put my bid at 25.

Well, I reread mine but I'm not going to submit it.
Oh, wait. I may have already submitted it. I can't remember.


if I did - hold to your chairs when reading it. It's terrifying.


Good luck to everyone entered.

Starting on it now. Because of time restrictions, it's T-minus five hours and counting. Hope to see dozens of other sucking it up like mine. Lol. =)

Trying to think up a logline. I'll figure it out.
Made some minor changes.
Debate on if i want to keep a morbid scene.

Hate to cut out less than an hour after saying I was going to do it, but the script is just not lending itself to the rules. That's okay, though. Best of luck to everyone who is able to pull through this go around. =)

Quoted from Leegion

I couldn't write mine without the 1 character who could speak revealing what the telepathic other character was saying through expository dialogue.


That sounds so bad, lol. Glad you didn't enter something like that.

Wasted some time messing around with numerous ideas before coming right back to the one I started out with.  After several pages of frivolous monologue and rampant comma abuse I’m in.



My short scripts can be found here on my new & improved budget website:

Fire in da hole, part deux!




I think commas instead of periods are sexy!


I don't think ANYONE thinks periods are sexy.

Quoted from Don


You can submit the same script as many times as you wish.  The last one I receive will be the one posted.

-Don


It's this type of attitude that makes me come back here. And stay well away from other internet giants. Well, there's that and the massive tax avoidance.

Women can't have commas instead of periods, you idiot, At least I think they can't.

They always run away before I can find out. Fast buggers, I tell you. And slippery.

I should buy more suitable shoes. And a big net.

I guess 35 entries

Including one by Jeff

Secondary competitions...

1) grumpiest reviewer of the month

2) least likely to be produced - that's mine by the way  

3) most popular description

4) most irrelevant description - we all have one, don't we?

5) best inclusion of egg salad - that one is marnie's

All the best folks. Hope you enjoy.

As Ray said, time for the 'Fire in the hole'...are we back to periods

OK, I feel bad.  I admit it.  I feel shitty, especially after seeing Bill's last post.

I give so much shit to peeps, I'm so critical, so "mean" at times.  How could I pass up our anual October OWC?  Really?  I can't, damnit.

So, I just started writing, and don't worry, this isn't an excuse for a shit entry, nor will it be a pisser.  I'm going for it, and I hould be able to finsih in plenty of time...I hope.

I'm tentatively in...oh fuck...that's not cool, either...I'm in, damnit!  Drinking my patented Sweet Tea Vodka, Simply Limeaid, strawberry moosnshine, and frozen raspberries...with Jager shots on the side of course.

No fucking around, as I say, seriously, congrats to all who enter, as it's a tough challenge, IMO.

Here we go.

Eww.
Fetishist vampire.


Reef,
With no producer-esque hat on and format Nazi on ban I'm gonna shoot for 'kindest reviewer'.
I promise to try to read every submission with all the positive rose colored vision in which it was intended (or not) to be received.

Someone whup up a big batch O' pancakes.
Ray's bringin' da syrup!




Jeff,
Go, man. Go.
Good luck.

On page 2...

No dialogue yet.  No V.O.'s yet.  No SUPER's yet.  Setting it in Seattle, as an homage to the Pacific Northwest OWC I came up with.

No killings yet, either...but a great early sex scene
