Just a thought,
What size is your font?
Working on my sitcom/comedy drama, going for the all but 30mins and I just thought the font size will obviously impact how many total pages.
I do read parts out loud n' such likes to look at time issues but just thought is their a kinda box standard font size.
tweeeeeeeeeeeeeelve.
12 point is the industry standard.

You can WORK with any size of course, & then set it to 12pt Courier to print your submission script.

Here iare just two of many internet articles on Hollywood Script formats. They are much fussier that British production companies.

12pt Arial or Persil.
I wouldn't change my font for Hollywood. My pants maybe, but NOT my font.
12 point, of course. (Though I claim it's 16 point.)
I thought this thread was going to say...
.... What size is your cock?
It's huge. 
Oh and I tend to use 12pt Courier or Courier New for screenplays or dramas, while sitcoms I use 12pt Arial.

I actually tend to write my drama screenplays almost exactly how they say in the oscars website link.
I use 12 point, Calibri font.
Currently I am using 11 point Arial but only because the last place I sent stuff asked for 11 point and I usually just open the last file and overwrite.
I'm all up for 70pt WingDings!
