SECRET OF THE OOZE would be my choice for the topic of the thread except that it came out in 1991.
There really aren't any legal ramifications. A lot of produced screenplays are made freely available one way or another -- as long as it's after the movie's come out, the studios don't care. One of the few benefits of the studios having no real respect for the value of a screenplay.
Spec screenplays get passed around all over town anyway -- they WANT attention, after all -- so there's no problem getting ahold of those.
It's only when a movie is currently in development that they might want to keep it under wraps and prevent leaks, lest an uproar (like the one that happened over the leaked T4 draft) force their hand and require altering the film in some way.
The easy way to deal with sharing such leaks is to simply link to someone who is hosting it. Then if the studio comes down on the leak, you wind up with a dead link rather than a C&D. And then you just use email.
But again, unless it's a big tentpole film, the studios don't usually care enough to even worry about whether or not the script's been leaked, as the percentage of a non-tentpole audience that would bother to read the script is insignificant and it's not worth their time to even check if the bell's been rung, let alone try to unring it.
Share away.
I actually didn't read any of the T4 scripts. I know what Bale's demands were (that it be more character drama than VFX spectacle -- something you could "perform on a stage") but I don't know what it looked like before that.
I do talk about what I think they SHOULD have done -- for all I know, they were going to until he came aboard.
Do you have a link to where I can read the pre-Bale T4?
Those movies needed someone who could write a script and someone who could direct it, that's what they needed. Better casting and/or better performances would have followed naturally.
I would put the original GHOSTBUSTERS on a level with RAIDERS, EMPIRE, and BTTF -- i.e. not a shitty childish film you give a free pass for nostalgia's sake.
GB2, that one can count.
It's also easy to wind up reinventing the wheel.
/fucking metaphors how do they work
I really don't know what to say when people tell us this. I don't want to be glib but I don't want to get all serious. I guess thanks and you're welcome.
The sex scene was done with projection mapping on geometry. I don't know about the reflections being accurate as part of the point, and anyway using NURBS surfaces wouldn't have much in particular to do with that.
I call it having a hard-off.
I too am looking forward to it. Gareth's a Minch.
Let me clarify that I'm all in favor of having more sophisticated ways of searching/sorting/recommending episodes. Search by commentator, tone, franchise, decade, etc. It's a great idea in general. I just dislike the color coded borders way of doing it in particular.
Do not want.
I think it makes it look weird and chaotic, and I feel like most folks -- especially new ones -- are going to pick a commentary because they want to hear our thoughts on the movie, and the tone of the commentary will have little to do with it. If anything, cuing them as to a perceived tone might put them off a commentary they might otherwise have listened to. It's a neat idea, and I see where you're coming from, but maybe we can just have a different way of organizing them on a subpage or something. The colored borders are cluttery, to my eye.
But if everyone else is into it I will consider myself overruled.
I forgot about how she can paper-bend. Still, reading is not enough of a plot issue to justify the title, IMO.
I'm sooo looking forward to the thread where we talk about what famous person, living or dead, we'd want to have dinner with.
Followed by if we were animals, what kind would we be.
