What I want to know is why -- out of the thousands of scripts to chose from on this site -- a new member would gravitate to this material above all else.

While I will sometimes content myself to play Fletcher to Don's Bligh on the good ship SS, I do laud his commitment to free speech even when I disagree with him.

I would not post this stuff.  But it ain't my site.

I do not read this stuff.  Why the f**k would you?

Read this script at your peril, and if you can formulate something constructive to say, feel free to say it.

Otherwise, ask yourself if you are actually contributing here, or merely feeding the beast.

I actually think this is a special case and it's understandable WHY people attack the writer.  And while that is not ever the correct approach, I think enough people understand that reaction - in this case.  So you shouldn't need to worry about people holding a grudge against you about it.  Though Josh might have a bit of a grudge...hard to tell with that guy.

hunter.s.thompson fan, i hear yeah yes i am feeding the beast.
and i give up again,
but the narrator of this story doesn't make any freaking sense, which is randomly introduce in the middle of the story to interject through out most of the story for no apparent reason at all, and all of which is said is no way at all has to do with anything with the story and like i said before feels more like a confession/diary and as said the writer before hand introduces himself into the story for no reason at all to propel the story other than have his word which has a common theme through out the entire script which power, power over somebody weak and less able themselves read it for your self he fits the classic profile. dominance is a main them here and its very disturbing.  

Greg - First off, thank you for reading my script. As you may or may not habe known by now, I really like surrealism and use it in a lot of my scripts. Of course, I also am very fond of dark and disturbing subjects. So, I mix them both in to create most of my scripts.

Obviously, like most people,, you didn't find the script very funny or amusing at all. I get a lot of my ideas from, well, nature itself. Usually I will be out on a walk and notice a person, plant, or animal, and then write it down on a piece of paper. Why? Because what I see, for me, would be interesting in a story. That is how I get most of my ideas. The world is my idea, in a weird way. Stuff I see on the news, outdoors, indoors, etc... They are all ideas for me to snatch.

Lesmort - I purposely write the NC-17 stuff in my logline so that kids would be safe from reading this script, so there is no need to worry about that at all. If a kid decides to read this script, I'm sorry, but it's there own fault for not listening to the rating I gave it. Please don't judge SS just by my scripts. There are thousands of scripts on this site that are not like mine at all, and I am sure you would enjoy them.

Baltis - You seem to be another guy that thinks I wrote this script for attention, which is totally not true. I don't know how to convince you and others that I write scripts because I love stories and writing. But if you honestly think I want attention, well, it's your own opinion and I won't hold it against you.

Judgement. We all do it.

I don't like bullies. Never have. I don't like orders. I'm not a barman or a waiter. And I'm certainly not getting paid. I may have to get a proper job again. Oh dear.

This is an old thread but I think there are lessons to be learned, from the wise.

Writing scripts is bound to atrract some attention. Unless you keep them in a drawer then forget about them.

Like old kings usedta hide their coins and jewels then forget.

Tarantino emptied his drawer and got his clever arse inside Sundance. It was there he met Tony Scott who offered to buy both True Romance and Reservoir Dogs. And the rest is history.

I'll close with this thought. Without free speech we lose our liberties.

A lot of good people fought, for themselves and others, to have those two important nuggets. For now and forever. Until death do us part.

We're getting there. I think most people agree things are better now than they were.

When you look back on what has been, in those big dusty books you see things and situations you don't see any more.

Curtailing liberties and free speech, and the freedom to to say and write whatever you like are some of the most important things we have.

Look at how people live under the tyrants still in power. Are they allowed to practise those rights.

Now. All that reads a bit too clear to me. Where's me oily rag? Bugger. Lost it. Again.

Nuff said. Evening all. Be good. And have a lickle fun. It's good for the soul.

I'm sure the mods are happy about you giving this one a boost.   [bert's edit:  Nay...ecstatic...]

I read a little bit awhile back. Nothing offended me and I'm all about free speach.

I aslo think this lad types with one hand under the keyboard if you know what I mean... Would explain the typos.

This is a very funny script. It's had me in stitches several times.

Some of the dialogue is genius. Really, really funny.

I was slightly disappointed when the story kind of ended and it went all self-aware. I was really enjoying the action until then. Sure it's goofy, but it felt very refreshing, just totally balls out and funny.

I' ve seen that you are capable of creating some really off the wall stuff, so bring in more bizarre plot twists and leave the writing jokes out of it.

There are also parts where the dialogue is too long and becomes a bit of a chore to read....particularly between pages 15 and 24. You could chainsaw a good bit out of that part...it's not as punchy as some of your other stuff. You're best when it's quick fire puns back and forth.

Also, although I found the narrator amusing, I did think that part when on just a little too long. The part with Mark Kermode however was absolutely on target...that was a classic moment.

I enjoy your stuff, I do. I know people get all upset about it, but I enjoy it. I'd watch it as well.
