Hansen...

WordPad, try Celtix, it's free download. Your formatting is way off. Your missing a lot of things... SCENE HEADINGS... INT./EXT... NIGHT/DAY. I don't know what you have here... except you do James Bond, no justice.

Read more scripts, books on screenwriting.

Good Luck

Reading your logline then seeing how many pages are in this script I can already get a feel for how this is going to be.

You would be a God if you can stuff, what seems to be, an action packed feature into only 4 pages.

Opened up the script and the sore thumb sticks out, your formatting is off.... on everything. A few things can help you with this, 1) The Screenwriting Class thread, 2) Reading other scripts on the site, and 3) Get a screenwriting book if you haven't already. My suggestion would be "The Screenwriter's Bible" by David Trottier.

If you want to tell us where we are use a scene heading, INT/EXT (interior/ exterior) period then location, dash ( -), then ended with time of day EX (DAY/NIGHT)

For example you first scene heading would be

INT. JAMES BOND"S HOUSE - BEDROOM - DAY

Only need one period, and one or two dashes depending on the type of scene heading used.

"He shoots it off" With a gun? or his hand?

"Then he rolls over and kisses the naked girl in bed next to him"
SPOILER : He gets the girl!

Isn't his line "Bond...James Bond" ? Or is this a parody?

I stopped after this line, I have no clue what's going on.

I had I high hopes for this as I've not read any Bond fan scripts before.

And the Bond of the 60s is probably my favourite one. All that silliness with bowler hats and golden guns was very entertaining.

Alas! This Bond is more Woody Allen and David Niven. For the younger readers amongst you this Bond is like Austin Powers but not as witty.

The format is way off. So far off it's almost another type of script all together.

Actually the Austin Powers without all the jokes is probably the best summary of this.

Sorry, not for me.
