Updates and Mailing Address

I apologize for the downtime last week, but it was entirely necessary in order to iron out some of the bugs we were experiencing with the new server. For the most part, it seems the rough waters have now smoothed and things are, once again, back to normal with the site. But don’t be too surprised if there’s a hiccup or two within the next couple days. You never know what’s going to happen when I get a burst of . . .

The site is a little buggy…

Hey everyone, the site is a little buggy as we just migrated to a new server, so some functionality may be limited (i.e. the contact page, etc.) and should slowly be resolved throughout today and tomorrow as I work out the kinks.

If you happen to find any broken links or pages, please leave a comment on this page instead of e-mailing me, so that all of the issues are condensed into one place. It’ll make tracking these problems easier for . . .

The 2010 Seven Scripts Time Capsule

Recently, I was reading about the National Film Registry, which many of you may know is the United States National Film Preservation Board’s selection of films for preservation in the Library of Congress. Every year since 1989, they have chosen up to 25 “culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant films,” showcasing the range and diversity of American film heritage to increase awareness for its preservation.

All of their preservation business got me to thinking about the . . .

Changes, Upgrades, & Random Thoughts…

Hello all. Sheridan here. It’s been a while since I last posted an update of this sort. It’s something I hope to do more of in the future to help keep you a little more up to date on the changes and upgrades that are happening around here on a fairly regular basis.

How’s the pulse?

David Lemon’s Seven Scripts You Gotta Read!

During our CUT TO: Interview (which you seriously need to read if you haven’t already!), I asked David Lemon if he could recommend seven scripts that he thought people should read and possibly detail why someone should read those chosen scripts. I also stressed that this shouldn’t be thought of as a “best of” list, but rather, which scripts he thought would most help aspiring writers better understand the process and craft of screenwriting. . . .

The 2009 Brit List

The 2009 Brit List, a list of the most liked and recommended unproduced screenplays in the UK and Irish film communities, has started circulating in London with Ruby Films’ Good Luck Anthony Belcher written by George Kay coming out on top.

Over 40 industry players across all levels of seniority and sectors took part in the voting which is conducted confidentially and over 150 unproduced screenplays were nominated. To qualify, a screenplay had to be unproduced at time of the list’s . . .

Larry Gelbart (1928-2009)

Larry Gelbart, the American comedy writer who died on September 11 aged 81, developed the hit television series M*A*S*H and co-authored the long-running Broadway and West End farce A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum as well as the Oscar-nominated screenplay for the film Tootsie (1982).

Hailed as arguably the most successful . . .

We’re Back!

We’re back with a new name, a new look, some new features, and most importantly, new scripts! Okay, well… we’re working on the scripts. We figured rather than launch with a plethora ‘o scripts (and risk imploding like we did with the three previous site attempts) that we’d just take this version nice ‘n easy for a while. So, let’s go over what’s new here:

Wait, you’re really back?!

Yep. Sheridan here, and as most of you know, . . .
