I don't remember saying anything about Christmas... I remember having a pre-Halloween screening for TTD, but that had to take a backseat due to a wedding and an assignment script.

Yeah, so now I have to pay a fee to change my ticket I bought for the premier at the Hippo. Damnit!!!!
I really hate the production part of it. especially pre-production. .... We didn't use anyone!...
Technically, Ray might feel a little used. Afterall, he has already done all your pre-production work for you. :-)
This is a neat idea, though, Pia and Michael.
And Pia, I do agree with what you said about 'Bad Juju'. I think that one really had the best idea, and I really really loved the beginning. I would've definately voted for it if I feel it didn't trail off at the end like it did.
Cinemachado. You did 'Now Lie In It'? Excellent work. Yours definately had the greatest atmosphere. I was SO close to voting it over 'Damages'. However, I feel 'Damages' had a little more of a complete ending. 'Now Lie In It' ultimately just felt a little incomplete, like something was missing, and it was only at the end. I think you'll have an amazing story after the rewrite.
And since we're all owning up, mine was 'Corpus Christi'. I knew I was going to get slammed for the hymen still being intact after giving birth plothole, and I had my defense already. Since it was a modern story, he was going to be born C-Section.
But in Felippe's comment, I think he filled my plothole in for me. (I thought it was the most hilarious thing I've read in a while), he mentioned how 'I guess Jesus could've touched and healed it as he was being born.'
And it wasn't exactly a retelling of a Bible story, either, although, of course, because it was Christ, I had to incorporate things from the Bible, though. It was an interpretation (and not the most popular interpretation, either) of a hymn written in the early 1500's, entitled 'Corpus Christi Carol'. (Some people might recognize it most popularly from Jeff Buckley, who covered it on his album.) I'll explain it more in the thread later, though.
That just happened to be a strange, wonderful coincidence. (It also means 'The Body of Christ' in Latin.) Incidently, when I was a child, we stayed at a motel in Corpus Christi, and the photo Don posted, reminded me of that motel. (That's why my motel is also on the beach.) Because of the palm trees, I kind of assumed the beach was right across the street from the motel in the pic.
One point to note with this competition is that they have opened it up to other film makers. Just a thought if it proves too much?
A script i wrote for that reached the long list but alas not the final fifty.
I assume you intend to film the short scripts and make this into a feature but combining them rather than putting into one single feature? Love to hear your current thinking.
One final point, if you do proceed, remember to get the donate button out - must be a lot of cost involved.
