Did you guys enter in the end?

I had wanted to rewrite a feature and enter that but didn't get the time in the end. Realised it was ok to enter shorts though so entered the Robozombie Apocalypse one I have up on here instead.

Good luck if you entered!

Cheers,
Max

Best of luck with your entry

Oh nice one… good luck with it (but not too much good luck)!

Was that the one you put up the other day? It’s a hell of a task to finish a feature isn’t it!

Yea put it on SS last week I think.

Yes it is lol! Technically it's not really finished, there is a lot I want to change (mostly towards the end when I started to rush it) but I just cant look at it anymore.
When I finish the next one, I will circle back and rewrite it with fresh eyes.

Thanks, Warren

This is it -  https://www.simplyscripts.net/cgi-bin/Blah/Blah.pl?b-thriller/m-1673387831/

But seriously do not expect anything good, it is an absolute hot mess lol
If I was to liken it to something, it would be the final moments before losing a game of Tetris when you panic place pieces, nothing fits and there are holes everywhere.

Congrats on the Quarters, Max.

My script didn't make it, they clearly couldn't see my brilliance  ;D
