I was paraphrasing you Jeff, to quote...

"I read this and then read the reviews, and I'm rather shocked at all the praise for being so well written and such a strong entry.  I don't get any of that."

I don't normally pay any attention to your comments Jeff, they are yours and I respect your right to have them.

But I find it sad that you feel the need to call out other writers for having their own opinions like this.

no reason to incorrectly paraphrase me, Anthony...just quote me!

I'm sorry to make you sad, offend you, disgust you, etc.  Seems to me you're pretty easy to upset.

Listen, some things are gray, but some are either black or white.  A shitty script is always going to be a shitty script, and if I say it's shitty, it's shitty.  Just trust me on this, Son.

Who Wants to Be a Princess? (Family)
Glass House (Horror anthology)

TV pilots:
"Kord" (Fantasy)
"Mal Suerte" (Superhero)

I didn't really agree with the outcome last round. But I'm not knocking the scripts that were at the top. I didn't think any of them really stood out. Nor have any yet for me this round.


Maybe they are just decimal points apart. The top score could be 3.3 and the 10th score 3.

You must not be paraphrasing me, because I wouldn't say, "I think this sucks", I'd just say, "This sucks", and I'd be right 999 times out of 1,000.



Typo

Missing a decimal point.

Name calling is not nice, Anthony.

I'm very offended and upset over this.

Please take it back and pinky promise never to do such a mean thing again.

Man, I do some real work for a few hours, come back here, and there I am again, being tossed back and forth.

Same old, same old discussion here.

What I find absolutely amazing and appalling at the same time is the staggering amount of reviews where many negatives are thrown out about the completely illogical and boring story, then something to the affect, "But, don't worry, I'll grade you down the middle."

We have so many "stories" this round that are completely shoehorning in a sewer...because...well, they have to.  Yet, I bet they're receiving fairly high scores (a high score to me is 3 and over), when they should be getting 1's and 2's across the board.

We'll see come Friday, but I'm pretty sure, just as I was correct in Round 1 scoring.


You're not surprised - right? I mean you post volatile stuff which by it's nature results in reaction.

SS is always full of surprises...so I guess nothing really surprises me anymore.

There's a non-reviewer by the way. 0 reviews or have I missed his reviews? I know he's not new.

Maybe not. Libby is in this time and there’s a new addition (KevinS I think) so I think there was one non-entry from someone who entered round one. I won’t mention the writer in the event I’m wrong (as I often am).


Some of my scripts:

Bounty (TV Pilot) -- Top 1% of discoverable screenplays on Coverfly
I'll Be Seeing You (short) - OWC winner
The Gambler (short) - OWC winner
Skip (short) - filmed
Country Road 12 (short) - filmed
The Family Man (short) - filmed
The Journeyers (feature) - optioned
