I wonder how women usually write about male characters.
Who here has a female protagonist rather than a male?
FEATURE:
Memwipe - Sci-Fi, Action, Thriller (114 pages) - In a world where memories can be erased by request, a Memory Erasing Specialist desperately searches for the culprit when his wife becomes a target for erasure -- with his former colleagues hot on his trail.
Your's is a female, Herman? It would be fun to read something with a female protagonist!
Sorry, Khama. Not this time.
My main protagonist is a male but it's the female protagonist who has amnesia.

I think Blackkwolfe has a female protagonist though.

For a female FBI, I'd pick either Diane Kruger or Hillary Swank. The other twos are more girly. Maybe because of the films they're usually in.
On top of my head, I think Jodie Foster is the only woman who can carry a thriller.

Now we're able to pick and choose the actors for our script? Wow!
OK...hmmm...uh...I guess I'll take Leo DeCaprio, Brad Pitt, Morgan Freeman, Wesley Snipes, Zoe Saldanna, and...not sure yet. Let me send a few more queries out...I'm sure I'll have more interest a little later today!
>> Now we're able to pick and choose the actors for our script? Wow! <<
LOL!
You mean you can write characters for a story that ideally would actually be on the screen but you really have no idea whose personality they would match? WOW!
Seriously, you honestly have no idea which actor or actress would be most suitable for your characters? You don't... channel that personality for consistency? Are you being funny?
Your lead could be be plug and played by either DeCaprio - OR - Morgan Freeman? Hmm. Can't wait.
HaHa...Leo could play 1 of my 2 leads, who are both 35 years old, since he's 36. Morgan Freeman could play another important character who is in his 60's, even though he's 73, as he looks younger than he is. But then again, maybe Morgan could play each and every role with a little make up here and there. Damn, that's funny. You got me laughing now.
Ray, Ray, Ray, I'm just fucking around with ya, bud.
It is humorous to me, though, when people start throwing out names for their scripts. It's always based on a few different things...looks, popularity, accomplishments, or similar roles.
>> Damn, that's funny. You got me laughing now. <<
Ha ha ha. Not quite so stupid of an idea now, is it, funny MFer? Different strokes for different folks. We're all doin' our thing in different ways.
>> Ray, Ray, Ray, I'm just F**king around with ya, bud. <<
F#ckin' right back atcha. It's good to see that you can eat what you serve.
>> It is humorous to me, though, when people start throwing out names for their scripts. <<
H3ll. I've seen enough development stories to know all sorts of shenanigans go on with casting. I wouldn't presume diddly for an actual cast. Lokkit what happened to SALT.
>> How's the script coming along, BTW? <<
Roughed out the second half of ACT II over the weekend, should get that cleaned up today/tomorrow. Leaves me with only ten/twelve pages to figure for ACT III. No big whup. I do gotta go back and punch up some saltine cracker dialog in ACT I and II, part 1. Again, no big whup.
I'm pretty confident I'll have something presentable by Friday.
So I think we should have at least 6 scripts by the end?
