Wasn’t sure where to post this, so apologies if I messed up.
Just typed FADE OUT on the first draft of what will be my last feature. It’s my 13th and I think that is enough.
Logline:
TITLE: In Search of Vulcan
LOGLINE: After an emotionally sensitive Star Trek nerd is left at the altar by a scamming fiancé, he spends a drunken night binge-watching Star Trek only to wake the next morning believing he is the real Spock.
GENRE: Quirky comedy
Comps: RAIN MAN meets LARS AND THE REAL GIRL
I could not load this script to the site because the file size exceeds the limits. Reason: This script has pictures. I know you are not supposed to have pictures in scripts – I don’t care because this script will never be sold anyway because ---
It is a fanboy script that steps on IP. Basically, it was just a passion project.
If you are a fan of Star Trek, you might enjoy it. If you are not, you probably won’t.
If you are interested – it is hosted here:

Started reading this Dave, and though only a minor-Trekkie fan you'll be pleased to know I'm thoroughly enjoying it.

Cool! At vs. To ... because I keep making that mistake despite Warren noting it a million times. Brain freeze

Done, didn't take notes because of what this script is but there are a few typos and words mixed around here and there. Not many though.
Loved it! Just a great feel good script. FYI... Lars and the Real Girl is in my top ten films of all time so it wasn't a hard sell.
I did feel the mother and sheriff's relationship added no real value and felt a bit shoehorned in.
Also two things that felt a little too convenient were that Katie was from Vulcan and that her dad needed a Spock. Both are instrumental to the story but they did take me out of the read for a second. Maybe they could or couldn't be disguised a bit more, either way it wasn't a massive deal for me but thought they were worth mentioning.
Other than that I haven't got a whole lot for you, a fun read
The pictures didn't bug me at all.
Nice one, Dave.

Should have taken notes, I did add a couple more that came to mind to my original post just then.
No problem, I've been looking forward to it
