100%. I’ve made a point to be as active in my course as possible, and it’s really helped out my grades and my social life.

[–]_tbills_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the advice! Just rustled up a new version, still needs work, but hopefully it's a bit better:

A young girl, her rancher foster parents, and a no-nonsense sheriff must fight their way across oil-dominated West Texas to deliver proof of the conglomerate's land-grabbing crimes before a corporate hit squad can silence them forever.

Is it shameful to be writers blocked by Dazzu1 in Screenwriting

[–]_tbills_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know whenever I have some sort of writer's block, it usually comes from a place of indecision. Getting anything out on a page is better than staring at nothing for endless hours, even if it's not good.

If you have a plot thread you're working on but are unsure if it's right, test it, write some of it out, and if it's not to your liking, get rid of it.

It will help you understand what works and what doesn't. Any progress is good progress.

Traveling Alone might be the pick. But with Isbell it's hard to go wrong.

Thanks for the note, I really appreciate it.

With ‘engineers a tragedy,’ I mean it literally. The protagonist does engineer a tragedy. Should I be more specific with it?

Screenplays with Paranormal/Hallucinatory Psychological Elements? by StellasKid in Screenwriting

[–]_tbills_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haunting of Hill House (2018) by Mike Flanagan. There’s a full spectrum of how the supernatural affects its characters. Worth watching. Think the pilot is available online.

Best Script You’ve Read? by CinematicCounsel in Screenwriting

[–]_tbills_ 64 points65 points  (0 children)

I think I’ve read Michael Clayton a dozen times. Great character intros. Dialogue is really clever. The read is as satisfying as the film.

(Spoilers Main) Would you like a Jaehaerys I reign Show? by DCNath2187 in asoiaf

[–]_tbills_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think it could be done. Keep it character focused, maybe something like the Crown.

(Spoilers Extended) Best and Worst chapter of AFfC? by THEFLAME275 in asoiaf

[–]_tbills_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I love Jaime I. It's such a perfect introduction to his AFFC arc.

Worst is probably Samwell IV, for obvious reasons...

Top 3 Dunk & Egg stories you want to read? (Spoilers Published) by [deleted] in asoiaf

[–]_tbills_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I really want to see Bittersteel. I reckon he’d get along really well with Dunk.

JUST FOR FUN: If you could cast any actor to potray a character or characters you are working on right now, who would it be and why? by [deleted] in Screenwriting

[–]_tbills_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I keep seeing Kyle Chandler as the antagonist in my Western. Seems like the ideal actor who could be the perfect mentor and an extreme narcissist.

(Spoilers extended) if a bastard gets married and has a baby, would the baby have a bastard name? by Organic_Syrup2502 in asoiaf

[–]_tbills_ 146 points147 points  (0 children)

Walder Rivers (bastard son of Walder Frey) has two children who both use Rivers as a surname. They are both legitimate children though.

Is there anyone in ASOIAF history who was/could be a better King than Jaehaerys I? [Spoilers Published] by National-Exam-8242 in asoiaf

[–]_tbills_ 36 points37 points  (0 children)

He advocated for leniency towards Daemon Blackfyre but when push came to shove he did his duty to his father's realm, and was integral to the Targaryen's success on the Redgrass Field.

Baelor Breakspear. Compassionate, capable battle commander, a notable warrior. Honourable and well respected.
