What fucking retard wrote this? Seriously, this is why no one takes screenwriters seriously any more. I should know, I'm a small screenwriter in L.A. who's had numerous works published, I'm published because I have not only good ideas but GOOD QUALITY WRITING. And not only that, the people who buy me on it PRAISE me for having such good writing ability. Fucking amateurs, just stop now.

I got a couple of good tips on my script earlier (cut a lot of the dialogue, focus on atmosphere, characters are too young, etc.) so I'll try and work on that when I can.

Should add, please fucking ignore that one name.
>>70105465
Wastebasket shouldn't be capitalized the second time through. Just the introduction to let props know that they need one. Lisa shouldn't be capitalized if you've introduced her already. Also the way you phrase it is odd, makes it seem like we're inside lisa's room. Phrase things like we're the ones witnessing it.

With the phrasing I'm trying to show that we just see the light come on from the outside of the house, hear her scream.
>>70108999
No I get it, I'm saying that because you start out with "inside Lisa's house" I get confused, which is usually bad when you're doing a quick read. Simple fix would be "We see a light in Lisa's bedroom window turn on."
The problem being you switch locations with that phrasing. Also Lisa should be (OS) in that name block, since she's off screen.
I wrote a fan script for a King of the Hill movie. The general plot was about Bill being mistakenly captured by Cuban agents who thought he was a general and Dale and Hank having to try and track him down and get him back. Dwelt heavily on the nature of Dale and Hank's friendship
I mailed the script but never got a response back and the show got canceled a while ago

Ah, how could I have not noticed that. See this is why I make these threads. Thank you.
Reading some scripts today. If anyone has links to collections, I would love them.
