I'm seeing a lot more dishonesty than usual in the reviews this time around. Anyone else picking that up?

Remember, comedy is subjective... that you didn't find it funny is most likely because you didn't want to. Also, just because you don't find it funny doesn't make it not a comedy. It just makes you unappreciative. It's a subtle difference... but one that may affect scoring.

The sewer is cool, but the whistle is killing me... Hopefully inspiration will strike


Feature

Two steps to writing a good screenplay:
1) Write a bad one
2) Fix it

Is it an actual whistle or the ability to whistle?

You don't really want a glimpse in there. But, unfortunately, that Sewer will not count.

An actual, physical whistle.

For me the comedy part is a problem. I can write a drama on that but not a comedy.

Just exaggerate everything. If you find it funny, make sure you leave it in in the second draft... because twice around things stop being funny. Don't be offended when 'reviewers' tell you it's not a comedy... wtf do they know? If you find it funny, it's comedy.

Kham, you wrote that great comedy about an eccentric young boy - I can't remember the title and it's not in your Sig but you made it high up in contests with that one and I remember your comedic flair.
