Welcome one and all to the glitz and glamour of the screenwriting forum! Not only do we have all of the soul-destroying rejection of a novel writing forum but we have the added rejection of the film and television industries as well!

Here, it's Death by Cliché which means the hero always wins, the guy always gets the girl and our plot-lines as formulaic as a bag of Doritos. Don't forget to visit our studio gift shop where you can get a swell, "I Was Universally Rejected" t-shirt or an "I'm Paramount Failure" coffee mug for 20% off this week only!

Now if you'll excuse me I'm going to go back under my desk and continue sobbing uncontrollably about the life I've chosen for myself! Enjoy!

INT. BUS - MID MORNING

A flattened HAGGIS somehow slithers through a cracked window,
and falls onto the floor, next to a passed-out SOCCER MOM. He grabs SOCCER MOM's right thumb, sticks it in his mouth, then blows hard, thereby re-inflating himself. He sits up, and looks around for his mortal enemy, ROLLING THUNDER.

HAGGIS's eyes roam around the bus. He follows them, then puts them back
in his eye sockets. Then he notices ROLLING THUNDER, at the back of the bus, furiously pounding the keys on his laptop.

HAGGIS
Randomly banning nOObs again, RT?

ROLLING THUNDER
You! I thought I killed you.

HAGGIS
You wish. You don't have what it takes to do me in.

ROLLING THUNDER

Haggis, baby! Love the script, love it!!

Just a couple of notes.

The bus thing works really well. Really. But our research shows people don't like public transport, could this be some sort of stretch limo or better, a private fun-time jet?

We're losing our core 18-30 demographic - can you increase rap dogginess by 15%?

This Rolling Thunder character isn't working for me. Could he be some sort of monkey-side-kick instead?

You need a twist before the end of the scene. Can you include a plot detail that comes out of the blue and changes everything that comes before it but still be in line with the story we're trying to tell? That'd be great!

We're slating this for a Summer 2009 release, can you draft me different versions to include potential sponsorship from Pepsi, McDonald's and Budweiser?

Like I said, great script - you just need to change everything.

Clock, my friend. I couldn't agree more. Why, moments after I hit the "submit" button, I was saying the same things to myself. So, consider it done.

FWIW, I completely agree about the ROLLING THUNDER Character. Even the peeps in my crit group said he was unbelievable, and that nobody could be that evil. I'm thinking of having him fall out of his bass boat and drown in scene two. Picture this: the whole gang standing around the lake cheering while RT struggles and struggles, then finally slips below the waves. Let me know.

Oh. And about the Budweiser thing? It's great. It's perfect. I wouldn't change a thing. Except for maybe using Bass Ale instead of Bud. Perhaps a nice German. What do you say? I gotta claim a little artistic integrity here, right? Heh, heh.

Good questions everyone! I'll have my assistant's secretary look into those.

Why don't we start over? I've got $140 million to spend on a summer blockbuster next year and I'm taking pitches/loglines for AW: The Movie. I'm liking the road-trip motif but a road trip to where? And to what and who? Story, stars, stunts, I want it all. Let's get this turkey greenlit.

Rule no 1: There are no rules!

That's quite an obscene amount. It would make you the highest grossing star in the world ever! I'm not sure I can go beyond 25 mill. For a percentage of the gross you'll have to co-produce.

Carole, I see what the problem is here. He's a man. We expect you guys to do all the planning. Yes...even on your birthday. We're stupid. Even more important, we think you will not like the plans we would make so we depend on you to make the plans. We would be happy driving aimlessly around the world saying, "Whatayawannado?"

Maybe you don't understand how this works, Chris. I"m going to explain it to you. The little people make things work. We actually do all the stuff that gets done.

The important people have no use for chocolate double-chip muffins and their personal nutritionists won't let them touch anything with processed flour. So the muffin baskets shuffle down to the little people.

Well, you guys need to agree amongst yourselves what constitutes a muffin and just what muffins you'd be willing to give up. Or not.

In the meantime I'm going to audition some strike busters - the kind they had in the twenties. (Just in case.)

And no damn masseuses until this is sorted!

Hey, count me in, I like to bust... um... er

The Nervous Tick

His eyes bulged, terrified, from the pressure I placed on his spine. He gulped, I know he did -- although I couldn't be sure -- and then took a deep breath as I squeezed tightly. A droplet of blood trickled from the corner of his mouth.

He twitched again. I felt him.
