Done, dusted and sent.....but reading through it today, as clear as it was in my mind last night, it might come across a bit confusing at time. Neh, see how it goes.

And damn, I read every comment on here, cause it is so funny listening to all you guys (and gals) banter on.

It is, though.  Must change to EXT. MIME.  A bit hammied here.  Not liking where my script is going.   Maybe EXT.  BEAT UP MOTEL to start?

Looks like I might have to pull out of it. I just can't think of anything that works   For now I'm not going to TRY and come up with an idea. Usually they come along naturally... Hoping for the best.

Dan, c'mon, you're in, bro.

Start here -

INT. BEAT UP MOTEL - NIGHT

someone is sitting inside room 666.

They are named JODY SINCLAIR, and she is like 34 or so and pretty fucking hot.  Actually, she is SMOKING hot, and actually smoking out of a big old 5 foot bong with at least 7 appendages protruding from the bulbous glass body.

All of a sudden, in comes 3 or maybe 5 mimes, faces painted as white as the driven snow is white...maybe even white on white, or even whiter.

The mimes began to do their thang and from here on out, it's all mimes and JODY SINCLAIR trying to figure out what the various mimes are trying to mime to her.

This goes on for another 8 minutes or so and then we come to a very large finale which is very fantastic and exciting and it's also moving in a weird way, but somehow it is.

Then...something has to happen and you can then end your script on a high note and everyone will be loving what they read and Producers and directors and agents like BabzBuzz will send you E-Mails and call you on every phone you've ever had.

Then, you awake and read the very first post on your entry and realize it was all a very fucked up dream and your script sucks more dong than Tanya Tucker did in the 80's.

FADE OUT: (right aligned) and you ask yourself what the fuck just happened...

I'm sitting here asking myself just that. That was a moment of zen, inspired. Very meta. Very cool.

Quoted from Mr. Blonde
Well, I'm still debating staying out, because my characters are neither odd nor interesting and I have no past supernatural event, I found a way to fit in that event. But, if I do enter, don't blame me when you read it and think to yourself, "God, that felt so unnecessarily out of place." After all, there was no stipulation where it said this had to make sense, now, did it? =)


I hope you submit anyway, but surely most of us will likely point that out) --because we can!

I think it is the blood around it's mouth from chomping on screenwriters. (Some do taste good).

For those still looking to refine, you've probably already looked at these type of links, but if not:

I've entered mime...oh no it's catching and I have no idea why everyone is discussing mime

This time I think I have a chance, got a real contender for...worse LOGLINE. Just shocking. Why don't I put more effort into this?

Script wise, well, time will tell. I assume setting it in the town of Motel was ok.


My scripts  HERE

The Elevator Most Belonging To Alice - Semi Final Bluecat, Runner Up Nashville
Inner Journey - Page Awards Finalist - Bluecat semi final
Grieving Spell - winner - London Film Awards.  Third - Honolulu
Ultimate Weapon - Fresh Voices - second place
