Whistle While You Twerk by Anonymous6 - Drugs, alcohol, and a rave in the sewer. What could possibly go wrong? - Short, Comedy

It didn't really work for me, I'm sorry to say.

The main characters were a little obnoxious, the story was pretty thin and it didn't even raise a smile to be perfectly blunt.

I think the ending with the whistle could be relatively funny if it was set up in some ironic way, like he's a major homophobe or something. but in the absence of anything like that, it's just a random occurrence.

Sorry, I feel like a lot of work went into this. It just didn't quite hit the spot for me.

Hi writer,

If this wasn't part of the writer's tournament and I read that title and logline it would be an immediate hard pass, let's see how it goes.

The bro-siff dialogue is doing my head in.

Quoted Text then pops her ass out and starts twerking hard against Luke’s crotch.

Completely lost interest at this point.

Quoted Text FAST ZOOM to Luke’s left eye, into the dilated pupil. CUT TO: BLACK FADE IN:

Such a waste of space for a transition that adds nothing to the story.

Quoted Text INT. JERONDA’S BEDROOM - MORNING Morning sunlight

No need to repeat "morning", you told us in the slug.

Quoted Text Ya’ dig?

Not at all.

I'm seriously not a fan of the fact that I have to mark this as a comedy, there is literally nothing funny about any of it. I can see the attempts, they just fall completely flat, so this will unfortunately get the marks.

The dialogue and story are terrible. Would this be considered a pisser? Either way I imagine this will be one of, if not my least favourite of the batch.

All the best.

Hello writer

Quoted Text It’s dark, dingy.

Seems obvious to me, it's a sewer after all.

I would like to say that a rave in a sewer is far fetched - But I don't think it is, I can imagine that happening.

I'm at the bottom of page 3 and I'm not sure what the story is, all I have so far is - Two friends go to an underground rave....

There isn't really a story here - it's hard to put one into 5 pages but the lack of story meant I couldn't really get into it.

It's not my type of humour but it is a comedy, others will love this sort of thing.

Good job on completing this with some tough parameters

That was somewhat funny and I could appreciate the ending. Actually laughed at the end some. At the same time that funny ending went over my head.

Id cut some of the dialog at the beginning. The only purpose it serves is to show he took too many x's. in 3 pages? Also you dont need the other dude at all, he doesnt play part inthis.
Storywise its not much or super but the ending is great. Smart use of the whistle. Good characters, good dialog.

Sorry for being incredibly boring but I'm going to give you this link regardless:

A rave in a sewer? Hmm, yep, it doesn't push credibility too much.
I think you had fun writing this. There's nothing specifically wrong with the writing it's more the stereotypes of these characters that doesn't thrill me. I think if you're going to portray blotto numbskulls it'd be a nice idea to inject something unexpected.

The Fast Zoom into Luke's eye into the dilated pupil - hey, I'm all for pushing creativity via format but I thought it was going to be significant - turns out not really, you were just ramping things up style wise.

A bit predictable the plot and the denouement, but the actual writing is sound.

So the second straight script with a whistle in the ass. You're not endearing yourself to me.

Has the sewer, has the whistle, the humor is slight, but there, so criteria met.  

The story is thin, and not much happening other than Luke goes to a sewer rave, makes it with a tranny and gets a whistle in the ass. It's practically "Pride and Prejudice" rewritten in five pages.

The writer obviously is very capable, but the story was lacking for me.

First 3 pages I'm thinking... this is written really well. I wish something was happening.

Last 2 pages I'm thinking... I wish this was written better and nothing was happening.

The rave in the sewer was unique, creative. The ending was boring. I've read basically the same thing on this site/in these challenges a bunch of different times. I guess I'm supposed to be shocked when something's in someone's butt, but I've seen it so many times now, I just sigh and think: "Again?"

You've got game. I wish you would apply it more creatively.

The writing is okay in this but the chracters are a little cliche and their 'quest' too familar.

The ending, of someone shocked/offended at finding themselves having had a same sex romp, maybe me but this feels from a different era.

And why would Jeronda stick her fave whistle there of all places!

Whistle While You Twerk

Okay.

The exposition scene is a little dragging. The dialogue is actually repeating itself, could be cut to the essential, so, no true problem…

"couldn’t possibly dance any whiter." ouch, these metaphors… ah……………………

Oh, then the cliché of the dark-skinned transsexual…

No, no, sorry, please…

Quoted from AnthonyCawood The ending, of someone shocked/offended at finding themselves having had a same sex romp, maybe me but this feels from a different era.

What does this mean?  Are you really saying a hetero male would be cool finding out he just had sex with a transvestite?  Uhhh, I don't care what era it is, no one I associate would find this to be acceptable.

HAHA! That logline is almost identical to my last OWC entry! I hope you fare better than I did...

Dank-fest - Love it! OMG, these guys are talking the same smack as my two douchebag hunters in that OWC too!

Okay, I haven't read the other reviews yet so here it goes: Best yet! Yes, I laughed. Loved the story. Great characters and dialog. Fuck yeah, bro! Or Sis, if written by one of the ladies, but I doubt it. 5x5x5x5x5! Nicely done!

That's an interesting ending.  Didn't see that coming.

It's an okay story.  To go raving in a sewer.  Reminds me when I went raving in a disused metal works.

Implementing the whistle was straightforward in the rave scene.  The ending was I guess, off-side (soccer reference).

Not much of any comedy.   The ending I guess was the comedy aspect.  But the rest was like drama.

Hi Writer,

Second script I read with a whistle in the ass. (Sigh...)

Not my type of comedy, but I appreciate the effort.

I think that a rave in a sewer is an original take on the parameters, so kudos for that.

There was a sewer, a whistle and some humor, so the criteria was met.

The writing is good, you know how to write, just wish you opted for a more enjoyable story.

Good job on getting an entry in,
David
