Writing a script? (spoilers?)

Started by §P0oONY4 pages

I'm simply going to ask, why the **** are you bothering? Writing a screenplay of a book that has already been confirmed as a film, which is going to have a superior screenplay than yours, written by people who actually know how to write screenplays is a pointless and stupid task.

Well, looking at the past 5 films, I reallydon't think they are superior to what I could have written. That is why "the ****" im bothering.

It's going to be superior. And if it's not, at least theirs is going to be used, and they'll be paid millions to have it used. Which means they're more successful at script writing.

Either way, you fail.

If you coulda...you woulda 🙄

and the small part you wrote you got wrong snape wasnt the one that said anything about transportation it was yaxley so its pointless for you to write it if you dont know it a 100%

Leave him alone, if he works a bit at it he'll pull off something which might look like a screenplay and as much as it might not get used he can use the stuff he's learnt to make his own screenplay.

Can someone say adaptations?

of course you would be the smartass to say something about that but wouldnt snape know the order since he was in it wouldnt use that means of transportation know the ministry has control over it and wouldnt want to sound like a dumbass in front of voldemort

Excuse me. You are very rude in your post. Please speak politer to your fellow members.
Spoiler:
You little prick

I didn't add Yaxley bc there is no point in adding a new character. I cut out the stuff from the beginning about them not knowing hwat day the drop off was bc it is wasted time in the movie.

And I think so far all the scripts have been poorly done with much important stuff left out.

That can be easily debated.

No, quite frankly. The important stuff is there.

In my opinion, the movies were all poorly done and had a lot of room for improvement. DH is my favorite, and I don't wanna dislike the movie, which I probably will.

I'm not gonna turn this thread into a debate over who liked what movies, so if you plan to be negative, please don't post.

I think this should be moved to the Fiction Forum, but I also think that anyone bashing allofyousuckkk, simply because he's doing his version of the script, is being highly immature. Seriously, grow up.

So I decided I'm going to write a script for DH and send it to JKR and David Yates. I think I could do a pretty good job. Any ideas as to how to go about this, where to send it and what parts to deffinately not leave out?

Do not listen to the people posting. it is good trying. they would have no problem looking at your script at all.

The British copy is 600 something. The yankee one is longer; bigger writing for their little eyes etc etc and also has a pathetic artwork.

someone hates americans 😬

I personally like the artwork..but I prefer the adult covers

Well good luck to you, but I can't see it getting made. Like you said worst that can happen is it don't get made which is very true, but the layout for your script isn't exactly correct and script writing is a lot harder than people I think. It's hard work, it takes a lot of time and can be a tedious progress. Good luck to you though, no point in being negative I suppose.

Exactly! In my opinion they seriously need to look at the director, script writers and producer. I think Jerry Bruckheimer for production would seriously elevate the film and HELLO! JKR has finished writing the books, she could write much better scripts as for the director... *shrugs* I think the guy from the 3rd film was the best so far, but I prefer artsy movies.

I think you're right heaps of important stuff has been missed out, so they're going to have to leave some of that stuff out of the DH film which will suck and possibly not make sense...

What!? Bruckheimer? You're actually serious? A man responsible for both some of the most exciting and also the blandest production in the last 50 years shouldn't be trusted with Harry Potter.

JKR has finished writing the books, she could write much better scripts as for the director...

I sincerly doubt Rowling could right a better script than a succesful screenwriter; sure, she knows the story, the characters, the narrative, but a script is a lot more limiting and liberating at the same time, than a novel.

*shrugs* I think the guy from the 3rd film was the best so far, but I prefer artsy movies.

Out of all the directors to have touched Harry Potter, Alfonso Cuaron has the most creditionals...so are you contradicting yourself or is there something going on implicitly I cannot see? You say you want Bruckheimer production, then an arthouse movie? (You said you prefer them) Are those two notions blatantly juxtaposed?

I am sorry to nitpick like this, but reading your posts I felt propelled to action, frankly, because it annoyed me.
