I really dug this one. I thought the first was all right but I saw it too late -- the amount of "fast zombie" clones kind of put a damper on the uniqueness for me. I liked the second one because I'm all about ugly steely-gray nu metal 00s horror. but to me the latest one is the best. far from the neatest, to be sure -- it's actually pretty messy if you try to break it down -- but I was surprised by how emotionally invested I was once things kicked off. I always like when a horror film comes around and aims to conjure feelings you don't often get from horror. there's a kind of sadness to this, and along with the kind of off-putting jittery camerawork and gross splattery violence it really evokes how it feels to deal with death. it'...

Yeah, hey everyone, just to be clear...
In no way do I want to turn peeps away from seeing this. It has pretty strong positive reviews everywhere, and it's done almost $110 Million WWBO, so check it out and tell everyone what you thought. I think it's going to prove to be a divisive film, both on its own, and in this "28" Universe. |

A long, long, long time ago in the early days of SS, I was told my script Kirkwood was a meandering mess and said writer couldn't get past page 10.
I found that unacceptable, and have since done a page one overhaul and submitted to Writemovies 2025 Spring Competition. I just found out I placed in the top 18 out of 1K plus submissions.

| Michael, hey. Thanks for reading my work, and yes, I agree that it should have been more into imagery descriptions and it’s best to let creativity sink into the script. It’s been a while, so maybe I’ve lost my edge, but I’m getting back to writing now, so there’s always room for improvement. Thank you again, for you comment, and now I see that you’re a director now, can’t wait to see Jeep Commercial on the big screen. Best of luck, and have a great summer |

Interesting times indeed. One could load your images and summary into any AI engine and have a script in 30 secs max.
Like I said, glad I'm old so I don't have to struggle with the moral issues...

I have to say that I liked this.
Big fan of first two and re-watched them in perparation of this one.
It isn't the same as the previous outings, and the theme's have shifted... but I think that is a good thing as we aren't just getting a tired old re-tread of the other films.
Does it all work, no, not really... but it aims high and tries hard, for which I give it kudus.
It also has some real peril for the characters, some real drama, and some gritty pyhsical effects.
The tonal shift ending... I'm guessing this plays VERY differently in the UK to anywhere else in the world, possibly making it seem even more WTF... But, we have another film on the way to presumably explain this.
I'm hopeful for part 4...

Okay, so I have ChatGPT Pro, approx $20 a month.
I asked it to create a Prompt (yes you can get it to prompt itself), to take one of my scripts for storyboarding.
This is the prompt it came up with (I asked it to be in Wes Anderson style)...
PROJECT TITLE: “Droning On”
TARGET STYLE: Live action
VISUAL REFERENCES “Wes Anderson palette”
TASK:
1. Read the FULL SCRIPT attached.
2. Break it into sequential SHOTS. Each shot ≈ 3–15 seconds of screen time.
3. For every shot, output the following fields:
• Shot #: incremental number
• Scene #: screenplay scene number, if present
&nbs...

This reminds me of a thread here many many years ago where a writer basically called all of us who paid for Final Draft or the like stupid when it's so easy to get free pirated copies online. Then those same people who agreed with her went totally batshit crazy whenever someone used one of their scripts without permission.

Good analogy.

I absolutely fell in love with Cillian Murphy and wanted him to just stare into my eyes and take me.

I have always found him creepy. 
Maybe thanks to this movie? I saw it when it first came out.

So, if you are going to put graphic artists, editors, photpgraphers, singers, lyricists, musicians out of work by not paying artists to create things like pitch decks and sizzle reels for you, you have not moral standing in objecting to a Director using AI to generate a script to film rather than paying a writer.

Wouldn't be for me, But I am old enough to take a moral stand (just a way of saying that as a young writer I would be all over everthing AI but as an old fok I can afford to moralize about its use). With that caveat.....
As writers continue to experiment with AI to market or generate films without filmmakers,...
Filmmakers continue to experiment with AI to write films without writers.
I think in the Cold War days, they would call this mutually assured destruction.

$49 per month! Wow that is steep. btw, I have the CEO's email address if anyone would like to reach out to him directly. Also, I let him know we are discussing his product on the site.
I would be curious to see the difference between blooper and just using OpenAI or ChatGPT.

Their website is nice and clean, but their pricing model is a little on the steep side
1) Free forever - for scripts 3 pages and under, with additional limits too.
2) Free month trial - then $49 a month
I think for most people $49 per month is just unnecessary, how may pitch decks are ever gonna be asked for by producers that would justify this?!?
I suspect that underneath their service they are likely using OpenAI or something similar, so maybe using ChatGPT would return similar results.
BUT is there any harm discussing with them trialing the 'Visualise' feature they mentioned?
At least it's not one of those services suggesting it will write your script for you! |

Uh huh.
Just another Hollywood wannabe hoping to finance his dreams by scamming other Hollywood wannabes.
The only people pushing pitch decks as a necessary thing are the people who sell pitch deck-related "services". |

| Loved it when I first saw it! It's a very enjoyable popcorn movie, and the first time bad guy, Cillian Murphy, now an Academy Award winner (Oppenheimer)made an impact on me. |

I don't think you have posted anything in quite a while. If you have, I missed it.
I think you did a good job illustrating a nice picture of what can happen when fatigue and a bad reaction to medication overwhelms the mind.
My only criticism is with the non-stop camera direction. It's a pet peeve of mine when I see a spec script with all of the director's work done for them. I understand that you have an idea of how this should look but from a director's point of view, it's a turn-off. It's similar to someone posting an entry on a dating app dictating exactly how the date will proceed, step-by-step, with every bit of dialog scripted, the restaurant and dinner selected and dictating exactly what they and I will wear and eat. I...

I like the portrayal of Mr. Tween. I like creating unusual and unlikeable characters myself and have an appreciation for this piece of work. I think the plot hole regarding the availability of chloroform to be minor in this case. It's a short comedy, after all. It would be different if this were a feature or if this was a serious crime thriller. The only nitpick I have is when he walks out of his office with a trash bag. I think you could have elaborated on the size of the bag. While it could have been small, like the size of a sandwich bag from this morning's breakfast, it could have been big and unwieldy. He could have struggled with it and possibly disposed of it in an easy yet inappropriate way, like stuffing it in a parked, ...

I got this in the mail. I'm not sure how this is any better than simply using ChatGPT. Anyone want to explore this?

| Thanks for getting this revised draft up for me, Don. No major changes. Just fixed some typos and adjusted some dialogue. Still want to get this to about 85-90 pages, so any/all feedback is welcome! |

| Always enjoyed this flick. One of Wes Craven's most underrated films. |

Hotel manager Lisa Reisert (Rachel McAdams) is waiting to fly back home when she meets charming Jackson Rippner (Cillian Murphy) at check-in.
Red Eye is a 2005 American psychological thriller film directed by Wes Craven and written by Carl Ellsworth based on a story by Ellsworth and Dan Foos.
This starts out as a "Meet Cute Hallmark Rom Com". In the first ten minutes, I absolutely fell in love with Cillian Murphy and wanted him to just stare into my eyes and take me. Then it got creepy.
Jackson, no Jack, wants Leese to do something for him. This was a great thriller, tho the twenty year old technology took me out of the moment, it was the best hour and a half I've spen...

Loved it. Best King adaptation ever. |
The last Stephen King adaptation I saw was Dreamcatcher (2003) and it killed whatever interest I may have had in Stephen King adaptations.

I had never heard of this, nor am I familiar with the SK source material.
Flangan did Hush, too, which was a very solid little film.
I've tried watching Dr. Sleep many times and literally never gotten through it. |

The wife and I saw this one on the big screen and OH BOY, was it something! I've got very mixed feelings. On one hand, I thought it was beautifully shot and some of the more dramatic moments were actually pretty effective. Some really great suspense in parts as well. All the swinging dongs didn't bother me. Made sense that the evolved infected wouldn't wear clothes.
That ending was a bit of a tonal shift, huh? Lol. Wacky as fuck, but not totally out of left field. There are some not so subtle clues as to who these weirdos are and why they act the way they do.
I guess I really liked it. It wasn't at all what I was expecting, and I'm grateful for it. Felt original(ironic, considering it's the second sequel in a franchise). I'm...

Anyone care to guess where this producer found our script when I asked him? Huh? Anyone?
Simply Freakin Scripts, is where! |
They're out there, they're looking, and they're reading.
Quoted Text So, just goes to show you that SS was, and remains, a rock star site, in case you had any doubt. |
I have none.
It makes perfect sense when you consider there are zero obstacles and restrictions between writers and readers here. No paywalls, no read request foolishness.
