Hey there,

I'm 21 and a lover of horror and action and anything with guns and gore! Only when trying to write a screenplay, that is. I write novels about family drama and all those tame things, so this is where I want to let loose.
I just saw Machete last week(spoiler ahead!) and when a chick pulled a cell phone out of her vagina, I fell in love with film just a little more. Sick. This is what I want to do with the rest of my life, so If I'm lucky enough to ever get any reads on anything I post(my first screenplay I'm trying to finish) then I love blunt criticism and have a thick skin! Anyone who is offended by violence, cussing, and nudity will probably want to steer clear of me :-)

Wow. Sorry this is so long and rambling. Can't wait to read and learn. I'm a real greenie when it comes to screenplay writing, so any comments I can offer will be based on character/plot radiradirah...If anyone's looking for a reader in these areas, or anything really, then just let me know.

Happy writing! Oh, and I'm a kiwi. :-)

By the way, on a slightly more serious note than my response to your Zombotard review. Welcome to SS, it is nice to see you jumping straight in by reading peoples scripts, that is the one sure fire way to earn you loads of respect around here. There are some good reads here.

Violence and nudity are most welcome, by most. Cellphones in vaginas are okay I guess, as long as they are cleaned before use, I imagine they might be capable of spreading disease otherwise.  Have not yet seen Machete but assume it was not an iPhone? I have enough trouble with fingerprints on my touchscreen.

Anyway, welcome. I look forward to your work.

Been wanting to see Machete for sometime. Guess I have to wait til next month. Cell phone in the vagina, huh? Hello cervical cancer!

Seriously though, guns and gore enthusiasts are more than welcome. Happy writing, yourself.

Welcome aboard!

Since I'm Australian and you're a Kiwi, obviously we can never be anything but bitter enemies.

But as far as enemies go, you could do worse.  ;)

Have fun here!

You've been told not to look at my pee pee before, Mike.  Consider this a final warning.

Either masturbating or marveling at your slightly  larger than average clitoris.  Not sure which yet.

I highly doubt I'm scaring away the chick who digs cell phones in vaginas.   Just concede and bow out like a gentleman.

Do you call your cellphone though?

Sometimes, but I always get a busy signal.

You don't get the concept of calling a phone from the same phone?

Ahhh, just assumed you might borrow someone elses.

It's amazing what people can do with all this modern technology, I remember all Mrs Murphy used to have was a pager and a fax machine. She used to find walking difficult, but an upside was whenever she went to the loo she always had paper.

Ha, really? Can I get a subscription...

Fax machines, enemies, remotes - what an interesting bunch we have here! :-)
Note to self: probably shouldn't mention cellphones and vaginas in the same sentence of an intro...even if joking. Sorta.

That might be good and that might be bad.

If you're rewriting to polish then it's good, but if it's going to get broken down and generally torn apart and edited out later, then maybe it's not such a good idea.

Maybe just put something up that you feel is a good shot and then see from there.

Thanks. Probably a good idea, but It's more me wanting even this first attempt (which will highly likely be shredded to bits) to at least be not a total disaster! How would I know this, anyway...
Ok. Less procrastinating – more writing.
Off I go
