Quoted from Alfred Hitchcock
fine, fuck it then!

fuck this whole god damn thread!


You have to grow up, Al.  You come here.  You get argumentative with things you don't know about.  You ask a lot of questions, most of which are ridiculous and unimportant.  And then you get pissed when things don't turn out your way.  This isn't your toychest.

Read some scripts.  Review some scripts.  Write some scripts.  That's how this board works!

Quoted from dogglebe
I think Don has a problem with those writing prose on these boards.  Someone once said he was going to submit some stories and he said 'no' to it.


Er, yeah, that was Alfred Hitchcock that wanted to submit those. For full details on how that went, read Simply The Godfather.  

Seriously, though, for this idea to work, Hitch, you have to be open to anyone saying anything. One person made a comment, and you seem to make it out to be the end of the world. Only one person actually controls the boards, and that's Don. Everyone else are guests in his house. So Phil made a comment. learly there was a frustrated response, but dropping the F-bomb happens to be a pet peeve of Don'ts so I recommend an edit to your post or he might want a vacation from deleting them.

As for your idea, only one person has taken issue with it.

And he wasn't even upset at you. He got upset that the thread went grossly off topic and lost focus. It happens. the trick is to bring it back to the focal point, which has been done.

I'm getting pretty upset, too.  You seem to be doing everything on this board except reviewing scripts and posting your own.  That's what this site is about.

I think it's time to drop a piano on somebody.

Quoted from Old Time Wesley
how about we move this to collaborative and write a script together (Everybody adds a scene) and see what it evolves into. Think about it, that way everybody wins.


Why don't you use this idea?

Start by writing the first scene and I'm sure there will be others adding on to it. It might be interesting to see which direction it takes (hopefully this thread is not an indication of where it would lead).

I'm with Phil.  If it is, in fact, OK for us to "self-mod" some of these boards, I think it's time to turn off the lava lamps at this party.


Hey, it's my tiny, little IMDb!

I've sat by and watched this thread, and as Bert said, turn the lava lamp off. So, though I'm sure it won't work out, NO ONE RESPOND TO THIS THREAD ANYMORE AND IT'LL ALL BE OK!


Thank you,

Again, we can sit down in a circle and hold hands. Whilst Mike sings Kumbaya.

Anyway, the idea I suggested would take this idea, move it into a more appropriate board and give you a way to display your writing talents and get others involved. A fun fast screenplay, read the one that we all did a year or so ago it turned out half-decent.

We should use that board more often; this is for chat about specific things and getting to know you. IE If you have a film online, if you have a picture, to introduce yourself, tell us you're going on a trip. Things that deal with you so we can understand you better.

That is how I see this specific board, the descriptions for some boards are vague and open to discussion.
