It's been almost a week. I see nothing wrong in starting to guess writers. I also have no problem with mentioning favorites. Ultimately it's up to Rick if he feels a script fits his idea/vision for a film he had in mind.
Thy will be done.
Thank you, Pia. I'm off to beddy-bize now. I hope I can dream thrilling and inventive processes into all of our rewrites and up and comings.

Excluding my own two (I'm not into self praise all that much; but I found Ray W's comments on my junk to be rather..."honorable" and my second has a major revision that will be up soon) my top five are, in order

And those top 5 are based on your reading every entry...cause you sure haven't posted on every one, DJS. Just wondering...

He's read enough to post a top 5. Not everyone has to read every entry.

They are HIS top 5 Jeff. You can't argue with that. However, knowing you, you will.

I'm not arguing anything, Michael, but what I'm questioning is how many did he read, and how many didn't he read to come up with those "Top 5"? Is that wrong or surprising? As I said, 2 of those were piss poor, in obvious terms and in the general consensus even. Is it odd to question that?

No. For you it is not odd to question that. However, it's not really your business. If he wants to tell you how many he read or how he came to that decision - then fine - but he doesn't HAVE to do that.

Well, I wasn't planning on trying to twist his arm or anything to "make" him tell me or anyone else. Just posing a question...sorry if you took it the wrong way, Mr. C.

It seems like this is a thanksgiving dinner where every board/family member pissed on the other's shoes upon entering the house. Why is everyone so upset these days?

I'm not upset. Just making sure the Everybody vs "what Darren comments on" thing doesn't pop up in the OWC thread.

1- I didn't comment on two of them for a good reason (they were my own-but that will happen in the next day or two)
2- Many comments have echoed what I would have said; there is nothing more I could add. So I didn't comment on those few.
But rest assured, I read every last one of them.
I'm not thrilled in the least with your finger pointing. Hasn't there been enough BS in the thread?
Ironic that you're the one to bark....well, maybe not.
