Re: Wrote a script, Hollywood industry professionals like it.

So many options to go with this he could get a neighbor dog pregnant. He could run away. He could at then end choose he wants to stay as the dog and switch back to human.

Also, +1 to the other post about it sounding like a bad straight-to-DVD bargain-bin movie. That was exactly my thought as well. Except OP insists it's "original" and "my ignorant" so maybe we're all wrong about that.
what was he trying to say about your ignorant?

but anyway, i see what the OP means, after reading his posts again i really like his writing style and i kinda wanna give him some money. are you guys feelin this? this is crazy.

Movie will be epic if you get Sean Connery to say "You're the dog now, man!"

I love your cheesy movie-trailer lines in the write-ups. More of these please.

It's more true that mob movies aren't that original than anything about this idea being original.

What kind of sociopath sets out to right a family movie anyway.

Heres the bottom line. The only opinion that matters is industry professionals. People that have seen many scripts and ideas. And for them to say, "when i put it down, i looked forward to picking it back up," is all i need to know.

Last ill post on this thread.

Haters gonna hate.

Re: Wrote a script, Hollywood industry professionals like it.

pokerholic - And are you sure the "industry professionals" you are talking about are not trying to con you or lead you on?

Also, if you only care about the industry professionals then why are you so uptight about the criticism here?

I mean, if I wrote a screenplay about a guy changing into a dog to stay with his girlfriend AND I legit got offered $100k for it AND I wanted to brag about it here I would still readily admit that it's cheesy and stupid but I've constructed it in a way to make it marketable to the Hollywood types.

You seem really keen on getting the validation of everyone here about your puppy movie. But since it wasn't 100 straight posts of, "Wow! This sounds like the best family picture ever...I can't wait to see it!!!" you are getting really ultra-defensive about it.

Nice to meet you, I am Yves T. Weinschlagenheimer, industry professional. Your dog human script is clearly a first-rate gold mine. I will call Dwayne Johnson immediately and my people will be in touch. Please wait 7-14 business days for your six figure check for this masterpiece!
