Yeah this is basically how I see it. The next round will cut the pool down from a few hundred to 8 or 9 so I don't exactly expect to make that cut, but it's always nice when someone tells you you're funny =)

wth is the princess bride by the way?
Princess Bride is a very goofy fairy tale-type movie. Kinda like Shrek, but with real people and less traditional fairy tale. I haven't seen it in forever - so that might not be completely accurate. It had Andre the Giant, that I remember.
Congratulations. Even though I get the impression your script is confusing, the critic's comments are more confusing. Seriously, that's excellent, keep at it.

Didn't you ever wonder where this quote came from: Hello. My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father prepare to die.
#155 rated movie on IMDB. Don't exactly agree with the Shrek comparison. Extremely witty and definitely funny. You should rent it.
Maine has a good swing for a pitcher but on anything that moves, he has no chance. And if it's a fastball, it has to be up in the zone. Basically, the pitcher has to hit his bat. - Mike Pelfrey

I have no idea if I will every do anything with them - but thanks to moneys allocated through the economic stimulus plan, I did enter one into the BlueCat screenwriting competition this year - mostly because on top of being entered, they give you several pages of notes and comments. I thought it would be nice to see where I actually stand in terms of whether or not they are any good. I mean, I make myself laugh, but that's not terribly difficult. I could be awful at it and really would have no idea - it will be nice to see what someone outside my immediate family and friends and college screenwriting classmates actually think of one of them.
Any one else?
I do. I haven't heard of BlueCat. Coverage is free?
I'm working on a crime drama right now. Enter yours in Nicholl's! But then again, if you don't, less competition for me! All kidding aside, what do you enjoy writing? I steer towards drama.
Hi, I'm Troy McClure! You might remember me from such nature films as "Earwigs: Ewwww" and "Man vs. Nature: The Road to Victory."
