Of course, before the alarm goes off the camera should pan around the room to show various character defining possessions...

And a few self-indulgent references such as a Clerks poster.

But oh no! It turns out that it's a flashback, that cruelly turns into another flashback of his faithful mutt being run over and dying in his arms

(I really think we're onto a winner here, when's the deadline again?!)

Can we have a voice-over for the dog?

Only if the dog can have a sassy gay friend who runs a spin class and says things like "Don't even give him the satisfaction, girlfriend!"

I'd say it's essential.

"It's okay- leave me. You have to go find your girlfriend/partner/clerks poster before it's too late"

Actually, I cried at I Am Legend so I should stop taking the piss

Got mine too. My script was less than 3 pages - I can't figure out if that'd be a bad thing or a good thing.

The budget department will love you at least, providing it's not three pages of explosives

:)

Yes - as a writer you can be good, or you can be economical. In my script there's only 2 characters and not an explosion in sight.

That's me out then.

I take it you got a Dear John email too...

I got a "no" too.

Well, if they're prepared to trade economy for "good" that's their lookout.

Yep. I didn't have time to write anything new so submitted a script I wrote about 12 years ago. I still believe in the script but it was a rush job so...

A certain Ms. D.Dagger is through, according to her FB status.
