Quoted from Ryan1 So, the writers' names are revealed today, right?

I think so, if Don has the time. I could have done with using a fake name  

Must take some adding up.

But, despite a below par script, it's been good be here and taking part.

Thanks to those who read, but didn't enter.

And to those who didn't bother - you can @£&? yourself  

Writer's names revealed.  Writer's choice will be announced later.

Don

Interesting.

Coop got in two, eh?
Bully for him!


Congrats Janet, I enjoyed your very entertaining and produceable story. One recommend.
Congrats Anthony, I simply enjoyed reading your screenplay. One recommend
Congrats Ryan, although I guessed wrong which one you wrote I still enjoyed your very entertaining and produceable story as well. One recommend

Well done, eldave. The most inventive and well constructed story of this OWC in my opinion.

Thanks to all for the reads and comments.  For my part, I especially loved Teeth, Change of Heart, Roadside Attraction, Final Piece, 4.0 and Turn Me On Dead Man... not necessarily in that order.  

When's the voting go up?

Thanks to all for the reads and comments, my new version is much tighter and improved, my first OWC so was an interesting exxpereience all round.

I went a little further afield for my UL - http://creepypasta.wikia.com/wiki/Tomino%27s_Hell/JA

I'll post it on my thread too.

Look forward to the next OWC!

Anthony

Here's the UL that I based The Final Piece on:  http://urbanlegendsonline.com/jigsaw-mystery/

I would like to thank all the wonderful reviews on ARTHUR... This was my favorite:

Quoted from Stumpzian This kind of stuff degrades the OWC.

I must check out the masterpiece' Hagridden'

My script was so good it even got a mention on another script:

Quoted from Chrisbodily on Change of Heart Sad to say, I probably liked Arthur the Legend more than this, and I hated that one.

Sad to say, I actually liked Change of Heart better than Arthur

As for those who were content on the 12 point courier, I will send a letter to those damn Write brothers for Movie magic screenwriter 6... That's my excuse anyway


Here is the list of UL's from Arthur

Richard Gere  http://urbanlegends.about.com/od/celebrities/a/richard_gere.htm
Old man taking the wrong car http://urbanlegendsonline.com/get-out-of-the-car/
Masturbating leads to hairy palms http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Hairy+Palms
Bigfoot
Clown statue in the corner http://urbanlegends.about.com/od/horrors/a/clown_statue.htm
Slender man http://urbanlegendsonline.com/the-slender-man/
Bloody Mary http://www.supernaturalwiki.com/index.php?title=Bloody_Mary_%28urban_legend%29
The Hook Man http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Hook
Frozen Alaskan Tree Frog http://www.snopes.com/photos/animals/frozenfrog.asp
Scrotum self repair http://urbanlegends.about.com/library/blself-repair.htm

so there you have it.

I would like to say that I do enjoy the different takes and different ideas peeps come up with and everyone is entitled to their opinions. But on this OWC I noticed some of the nastiest reviews in the 5 years I've been on here. Nobody on here is making millions selling screenplays, all of us would like to be there and what makes this site great is helping each other. Just understand, especially those with attitudes that this is a one week challenge and even that, it's a lot less for parents working full time jobs and don't have access to a computer 24/7.

Thanks to Don and Sean for a great job
Until the next one I degrade

p.s. 5 comedies wrote... everyone called a pisser by somebody

Quoted from DustinBowcot Well done, eldave. The most inventive and well constructed story of this OWC in my opinion.

Thanks Dustin - much appreciated

Wow, people, you can disquise really well. I would never be able to make a correct guess for this OWC. You wrote the strangest stuff - so out of character.

Mine was after this:
http://www.paranormalhaze.com/the-5-scariest-urban-legends/

(scroll down to Humans Can Lick Too).
I have some rewrite ideas already and it will be a page one rewrite - complete redo. Thanks for all the input.

Carmen Winstead, of course.

http://www.snopes.com/horrors/ghosts/winstead.asp

I basically did bg research, deconstructed it and "grounded it" i.e. taking out the supernatural. I wanted to try something slightly different than horror and/or go down slight retreads of my previous work, such as Mallory's Friend or Hath No Fury.
But I was very close to doing Alligators in the sewers and/or Knocked up teens with octopus babies...

.

I didn't base mine on a current UL. I wrote a new one concerning society's reliance on prescription drugs.

Fair points Mark.

I have written two OWC's with comedy in them....never again. Comedy can work here, but it has to be a type that most understand. Slapstick etc doesn't normally appeal.

If it's any comfort I was asked whether this was my first OWC, and told that my script lacked a sub plot - not had that one thrown at me before for a one week short script challenge  

Not mentioning any names, but, yet again, Jeff didn't enter... and, yet again, he's the angriest reviewer.
