July 19 shoot the shit I'm just going to use this as a warm up for today. today I plan on trying to finish the majority of my third act in one of the feature films I'm trying to write. It's been in creation for I dunno.... several months now... or maybe I'll try to finish the second act in the other feature film I have.... maybe I should start a new one... maybe another short.... no, no, I need to complete a feature... I once wrote a feature length movie in a week.... it wasn't great by any means... at least in my opinion.... i thought it had an interesting concept but it never materialized into anything more... then I lost it.... and have no idea where it is anymore.... I think it might be lost on the internet in limbo... i certainly do not have a hard copy... that was stupid... now everything has a hard copy... I was listening to Aaron Sorkin talk about script writing and about the women in scripts and he said all writers try to write women they actually want to meet and fall in love with, only in the hope that the actress playing that part will go out with us. That's hilarious because in a way it's true. I think back to some of the female characters I've written and they all have something I wish I could meet a girl with... that's some very subconcious shit I think. A lot of "young" people like to bash some of the things I write.... I believe that's because they don't like to read. They expect 70min of explosions and CGI and 20 minutes of story. That's what I call a HACK! That's what Hollywood seems to be missing now a days. Good well written scripts. A good script is good dialogue, plain and simple. The Big Sleep Chinatown Shawshank Casablanca Vertigo A great movie is good dialogue delivered by a good actor shot by a good director. In my opinion that is the true equation for a good movie not.... male+female+tits+explosions+gore+CGI+beer=$$=good movie for an even simpler equation just know cost of production<gross of movie= good movie and I'm out July 13 Even the planless have a planWell it's been quite some time hasn't it? Well.... Something is in the works my friends... something big... It verges on the edge of... for a lack of a better word... greatness.... sheer genius. I must keep my lips sealed though... there's plenty of mother fucking vulture out there that would love to try and steal this like it were made out of fucking platinum. Needless to say I am excited, in fact I haven't been this excited since that 8 ball of coke and a blow job in the bathroom of Circa... I think I've said too much... more to come... stay tuned.... same bat time, same bat channel.... |
