If they don't talk?


I'd say it doesn't count.

If I was in this round, my question would be if voice-over characters like RADIO ANNOUNCER or TAXI DISPATCHER are Kosher.

I would certainly allow it. It would end up being a pissing contest either way. You have three characters, real life ones, and a voice over and want to count is 4. People can complain it's only 3. Or you can have four characters and a voice over and people could could complain that it's five. So when I look at them I know I will look for for real life characters and everything else is window dressing.

Quoted from Mr. Blonde
Four total characters.
Page length divisible by four: 4, 8, 12, etc.
They must be confined to an automobile (no part of the script takes place outside of an automobile).
Can only be of the Horror, Thriller, Drama or Mystery genres.
Due Sunday at 11:59PM EDT.


This is to prevent anyone from recreating Owen Lift's three-page murder mystery that had only two characters, one of which died on page two.


Feature-length scripts:
Who Wants to Be a Princess? (Family)
Glass House (Horror anthology)

TV pilots:
"Kord" (Fantasy)
"Mal Suerte" (Superhero)

And I'm done. I think the concept was better in my head but I'll fiddle with it over the remaining time and hopefully mould it into something a bit better.

Just went through mine again a couple of times.

I don't think it's bad, but I do think it's missing a little something. Can't quite figure out what that something is though.

Worst case, I'll submit as is and hope for the best.

Missing something? Hmm - maybe at 5 or six characters and a bunch of scenes outside the car (s).

I'm tired - not sure I'll go through it again - the tourney is finally wearing me down.

I like what I wrote. Not sure how others will respond but - WTF - I like it anyway so mission accomplished.

Need a beer.
