    It's been real.

    Hey gang, sorry if I came off as a bit of a drama queen back there. But then I am a writer/actor/filmmaker, so I suppose it goes with the territory. :blush: Just want to clarify that I did not feel personally attacked by anyone here -- did not mean to imply that at all! I just feel like this...

    It's been real.

    It's probably inevitable that everything eventually peaks and begins to slide. I've been an off-and-on IT contributor for some time now, and have definitely perceived a change in the forum. Seems like several of the members who were so active when I signed on are rarely heard from these days...

    Sorry, I assumed you were interested in discourse. My bad. Carry on.

    How much should I charge to write a TV pilot?

    If this is a serious project, you would be wise to follow Alcove's advice. If you do retain an attorney, make certain s/he specializes in the entertainment industry. If this is strictly a low-budget spec project, you obviously can charge whatever you feel your time is worth. You mentioned...

    Golden Age Of Parody ??

    I'm not sure quantity is necessarily any indication of quality. To be honest, the vast majority of "parodies" I've seen in recent years are so lacking in creativity that they are just sad, with jokes that are blatantly obvious to anyone with half a brain. I miss the days of Mel Brooks...

    automobile rumble and audio

    Um...color me confused. :huh: Seems to me you have a variety of options. In order of difficulty: 1. Live with the sound. 2. Use an alternate take. 3. ADR 4. Reshoot. Am I missing something?

    Goldman's "Adventures in the Screen Trade"

    Well, I'll tell you, guys like me - experienced in the craft of cinematic storytelling - are always on the lookout for guys like you who are interested in the producing end. I'm serious. I would love to find a producing partner because I hate producing and I'm lousy at it. If you are serious...

    Goldman's "Adventures in the Screen Trade"

    "Mogul" is a vague term. There are big differences between Lucas and Bruckheimer. Do you want to be a producer? An executive producer? A studio executive? If anything, a movie's box office potential is MORE predictable now than it was 30 years ago when Goldman made his famous statement...

    Soderbergh on the "State of Cinema" at SFIFF

    Me too. :cool: I agree with everything Soderbergh said. Of course he didn't present a solution, because there is no solution, per se. Audiences vote with their ticket purchases. And the vast majority of moviegoers who actually make the effort to attend a theater have demonstrated that they...

    Hollywood needs to produce more diverse movies.

    :hmm: They filed bankruptcy as a result of corporate mismanagement.

    Is my director going to ruin his movie?

    Okay, just finished listening to the Wish You Were Here album. Moved on to Meddle. :cool: Atom Heart Mother may be next...

    Hollywood needs to produce more diverse movies.

    Everybody blames Hollywood, when it's audiences who vote with their ticket purchases.
