You know, I tried to give this an honest look.  I did.  The title had a certain something.  Within the first coupla' pages:

I shrugged off the subtitle that reads "2001 - The Future".

I frowned at the vulgar and juvenile segment with a character known only as "Girlfriend", but slogged ahead, ceding to the author's artistic license.

Then I came to this segment of dialogue:

               PRESIDENT
               Lets just say (some dorky line
                meant to back up his claim)

               BIN LADEN
               (offscreen)
                (Some witty pun that undercuts the
                president's line.)        
               (EDIT) STUFF GOES HERE

What is this -- Mad Libs?

Don is knocking himself out trying to keep up with script submissions and you give him this?

Please try a little harder next time.

I took a look at this because of the title.  It sounds like something Balt would come up with.

I couldn't get past the karate tournament.  It was so ridiculous that I believe the writer knows absolutely nothing about martial arts or MA competitions.

You know, I wasn't gonna mention this one -- but the more I thought about it, the more it kinda' ticked me off.

Here is another segment I wasn't too crazy about:

--------------------------------------------

EXT. WORLD TRADE CENTER # 2 - 9:03 AM

A jet plane smashes into WTC2. LOL.

--------------------------------------------

LOL?

The author's name is Hitler.  Go figure.

I can't figure out if the STFU in the locker room is an abbreviation or he's supposed to be saying that to be funny.  I'm confused.

Pretty fucking tasteless.  Can this script be deleted or locked for this reason?

I too was unable to finish reading this vulgar piece of tripe. The sex scene with the girlfriend reads like a penthouse forum letter from a teenager trying to sound sexually “experienced” when anyone can plainly see it’s just some teen talking about something he knows nothing about. Not only is it obvious that this writer hates females, it’s plainly obvious he doesn’t even know anything about females.

It’s like this was written by a kid who saw his first porn yesterday and started puberty the day before.

It’s also plainly transparent that this author is attempting to come off with the same vibe of Team America.

This vulgar, obnoxious timewaster doesn’t even have humor to redeem it in any way. A comedy has to be funny. Vulgar misogynistic and immature sex fantasies aren’t funny.

I give this a bomb rating. Pitiful.

well with a title like that how could anyone resist.  this is how far I got.

                                          BOLO
                         Oh yeah, I forgot, you guys are
                         brothers. How come one of you is
                         white then? Is you mom's cunt like
                         half white and half chinese or
                         something?

                                   LANCE
                         STFU, okay.

                                   BOLO
                         Or does her cunt make chinese
                         babies and her ass make white
                         babies?

Good work ::)

Maybe it's a sequel to The Cabin.

Does anybody know if this guy posts here at all?

I Apologize  for hijacking Phil's post, but I didn't want to bump this thread up.  Locking it.  I think that "Dave" has probably gotten as much out of the discussion as he is going to.
