Re: Random Thoughts! v2.0

I butchered up my second script, TECH, and started reconstructing it so its shorter and more to the point.

I didn't like it at first but now i'm quickly realizing it was a good idea to to this. The characters are now quickly defined and the story is moving along better. I still have more fat to trim, so finding what's necessary and what's not is top priority since this is the very next script to be circulated very soon.

Re: The Fable Series

Nah, I reckon peeps are too harsh when it comes to Fable. They moan about what it should be rather than appreciating what it is... just a simplistic game to run through. I like challenging games, love my stealth shit, but sometimes I just wanna hack n slash through hordes with a little RPG element to it and a decent enough story. The Fable series has never set the industry alight, but it's enjoyable enough for me to like it, and that's all that matters really. If I wanted more in-depth gameplay, I'd play another game.

Totally. I think it's more of a case of judging art by its artist rather than the actual art itself.

Fable is not the greatest thing I ever played but I really enjoyed the original and thought the second was good. With all its flaws and limitations. If I listened to Peter Molynemaosdfjbdsfjhbds and took every single thing he said seriously, then i'd probably be on the hate or dislike bandwagon too cause it doesn't deliver on those promises. But on its own, I think its fine.

Re: What Game/Games Are You Currently Playing?

I thought Future had the better soundtrack but it was much too easy. I still enjoy playing it though.

I liked the soundtrack on the original better. Future was somewhat more playable in some parts but not so much in others. I enjoyed the claustrophobic level design in the original, though the camera can go fuck itself.

Re: Random Thoughts! v2.0

After putting it off for so long, I finally sent my contact the email with the logline for DEUX. This is what I ended up going with (written exactly like this):

Struggling with an unpaid debt, a twenty something signs up as a weapons tester in a high-tech duel, but to get his pay he must defeat his next opponent--an adversary he can't seem to kill .

It felt like the best one to go with. It summarizes the plot pretty well, not only that the way its written is pleasing to the eyes and reads well. Hopefully attention grabbing. Crossing my fingers he sends this out to any agents, and pray to ANY CELESTIAL BEINGS OUT THERE IN THE STRATOSPHERE that one of them bites.

Re: A Good Day to Die Hard

They did but it was dubbed in pretty bad. Same with the gore and violence.

Would've been much better if they shot an R rated film THEN edit the shit out for a PG-13 theatrical release and then release it genuinely uncut for the home media market.

It's an anthology of found footage horror films. Came back from the premiere which had the directors and producers. It was alright but the very first film they showed was AWESOME. AS HELL. Particularly because of this actress:

Who looked like this in the short:

Really legit, scary performance. Along with fantastic directing and great makeup. I wish the WHOLE movie would've been about that. That was easily a 9/10, easy. The rest was "meh" 7/10. Based on the strength of that one film alone, I give it an 8.

Re: Three Movies Loglines

If anyone's interested, this is TECH:

An ensemble cast of tech support reps try to survive abusive customers and wild in-house antics, meanwhile a vengeful customer is en route to find and destroy the call center!

These are two actors at the top of my head who can play the two main characters:

Hoodie - Jessie Eisenberg

Indian - Aziz Ansari

http://imageshack.us/a/img716/9762/azizansari.jpg

An extra one: New Guy - Cal Robertson (He's too old now but he would've been perfect for the part)

I'm also thinking of changing a couple of the names cause "Indian" and "Obese" may come off as racist or rude.

Re: Random Thoughts! v2.0

I'm pretty sure that everyone thanked Kenny's post just for the 8 bit version of Call Me Maybe.

Good luck Kenny just let me know when I have to fly over for the filming.

Be sure to prep up, I need more gay vampires for this film!

And thanks for the support everyone. It's a step forward but i'm still waiting to see if there are gonna be any takers. Good thing i've been working on more material, like buying more tickets to the lottery. I also submitted the script for a review on a script reader's blog, preparing myself for the worst but hoping for the best.

Re: Random Thoughts! v2.0

I hope to hell it gets made. Reading the script a ways back, it felt like just the kind of movie I'd want to go see in theaters. Really want to see how it would end up somewhere other than my mind's eye.
I don't often read scripts, but in the few cases that I have, it's for movies I haven't seen yet. And when I finally get around to seeing the actual movie, it's always really interesting to see how things look and change in the final product compared to how I pictured them.

I remember you were one of my early supporters and gave it a rave review during your harsh cynical review period. That was a great sign, cause since then I have not heard a really bad thing about the script though I did get alot of pointers on how to make it better. Even my screenwriting co-worker thought it was incredibly well-written which came as a shock to me. And there are still more revisions come, i'm gonna focus the eighth draft on making it more visual especially on the organization's backstory, bringing Angel in the story earlier and thensome.

My worst fear is that it'll come out of my hands and they'll get Marky Fucking Mark to play Revolver or whatever. I don't care if the damn thing makes a +100 million, I don't want that to happen at all. I'm real adamant in directing it myself but I have to prove that i'm worthy to the task, so in the forthcoming months i'll probably be posting short movies.

Re: Random Thoughts! v2.0

Sounds promising as hell.
So who would you have playing Revolver if you could pick anyone?

Had a Revolver since day one. DEUX was a short film before and a guy I met in film class played the role in it. His performance was pretty much the basis of the character from there on, before Revolver was just a generic stock "smart ass" character.

I recently got into contact with him and he's incredibly stoked about reclaiming the part. He says he loves the script and is giving me input on line rewrites and other story revisions. He just needs to brush up on his acting which he hasn't done in awhile. But he IS Revolver, no question about it. Just like Michael J. Fox is Marty Mcfly, I shit you not.

But if for WHATEVER reason that cannot be arranged (and believe me, i'll be bummed out completely) the next go-to guy is gonna be Aaron Paul from Breaking Bad.

http://i.imgur.com/IhDMh.jpg

Riku mentioned him ages ago. It wasn't until I started watching Breaking Bad that I realized he's my backup Revolver. The way he speaks and acts is almost perfect! His agent needs to get ahold of the script but i'm holding off on that still, cause the other guy is more fitting.

Re: Random Thoughts! v2.0

I think Shogun's gonna be your biggest problem casting-wise. Who the fuck is gonna be able to pull off being an arrogant, cocky cunt one minute, then turn around and be some frightened paranoid fool the next (and actually make it LEGIT ?)

Revolver's character can be played by most (in spite of any "perfect castings" you have), but Shogun's defo gonna be difficult. Likewise with Rev's handler. Don't let her be a smokin hottie with glasses, she's gotta be ugly, coz in Rev's situation, you'd have to do a lot of explainin as to why he doesn't just bang the shit out of her.

I'm gonna have to get Christoph Waltz to play Shogun. That motherfucka can play anyone.

In all seriousness, i'm gonna need to change Shogun a bit more cause he's too similar to Revolver anyway. And being a complete paranoid bastard from the start would kill some of the tension (seriously where's the threat in a guy who constantly shit his pants?) I'm thinking of integrating more of his paranoid nature in his opening dialogue so it would make sense he'd go full blown paranoid in the next scene to motivate Revolver to stop fucking around, then regress back to being determined to kill Revolver. But even in the beginning, he still needs to be imposing. It's a real delicate balance. I'm sure I can find an actor who can pull that off.

As for Angel, the best I can do is make her "plain" cause no actress is gonna want to play an ugly girl, let's be honest here. Unless they're looking to get an Oscar which there is no chance with this movie. No studio exec would want that either cause sex appeal sells. But now that i'm integrating her more, the pressure will probably be to make her the love interest. I'm completely against forced romance but if I have to make it happen, then it has to be convincing.
