I started writing the script around 2 years ago. I was so enthralled with what I was writing that I kept and kept writing and making revisions. then finally, I decided to make it into a movie so I bought 1200 dollars worth of props, hired a professional storyboard artist to make each shot become a reality, and now, I've got the cast members set up and crew and I'm ready to make the film.
The only problem is, I realize now that the script sucks. How? Well before, I was so enthralled with my writing (like most beginning writers do) that I failed to see its flaws.
But now, I've got about 5,000 dollars invested in this film SO FAR and I can't call it quits unless I want to fuck up my entire reputation with the contacts I've made.
But basically please don't give me a hard time. This is my first feature film and the news of finding out that my script sucks is making me very depressed because I really thought the script was great.
So do you have any opinions as to what I could possibly do to save this movie? Or Should I just call it all off?
@Phantom they said it was very interesting but didn't really a firm answer on whether it was bad or good. Generally you get "It was interesting" when someone is trying to be nice and in their case, they're probably looking for work so this seems interesting to them for the time being.
