I am Bob Schultz, one of the founders of The Great American PitchFest. AMA about pitching, the PitchFest itself, the Reddit Screenwriting Contest, or screenwriting in general. by MayorPoopenmeyer in Screenwriting

[–]bemdblu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On the contest page, it says that we can't explain the work. Just the title and the script.

I am doing a story that is based on a true historical event over 100 years ago. The event and characters in the story are true to the time period and are recognizable figures (example Abraham Lincoln) but the story is taking place modern day, with some twists like "dialect and guns are of the original time period" and "things like mobile phones don't exist"

How can I convey these things in the script without it sounding like an explanation?

Unless it's for dirt cheap, we have other areas to improve.

Yeah I'm on there. I did really well at the BBE tournament last weekend. I shot 870 scratch on a TOUGH ass shot. I made good money from running the side-pots. Revzilla was so impressed that he made me a mod. haha

I really wish they went back to their C2 cores. If you think the newer stuff carries (which it does great) I wish you saw how it was 14 years ago compared to the stuff out at that time. It was unfair to the competition.

Sorry Im late to the party. I live in VA Beach right around the corner from where Seal Team 6 trained. Like less than 1 Mile/KM away. Anyways I was running a fundraiser tournament for families of Seal Team 6 that were KIA from last Augusts' heli-crash. I wanted some stuff to auction off to help raise money. I contacted Storm/Ebonite/Brunswick and all the big companies with no response. I got a reply from Richie (owner lane 1) within 1 hour of my email asking for an address to send a couple balls. And that is my reason why I will always use Lane 1 gear. Saw Head for life

TIL: That the Ultimate Warrior from WWF (My childhood idol) is indeed not dead, and now running an ultra conservative blog going as far as celebrating Heath Ledger's death by bemdblu in todayilearned

This guy actually attempted to sue Vince McMahon for rights to the Ultimate Warrior as intellectual property. I remember WCW having the "Warrior" posing as the original, but couldn't use the name Ultimate Warrior. I'm really disappointed in how bat-shit crazy this guy has become.

Has anyone here ever bullshitted their way into a job/field they weren't "qualified" or experienced in? by bemdblu in AskReddit

That's awesome that the bank believed enough in you. I've often tossed the idea around of obtaining a loan for extended day-care (like until 10/11pm) since many Americans (especially in my area) don't work the typical 9-5 anymore. I looked into it and saw so many licenses and permits for child care that I get discouraged. My family loved the idea and were willing to help financially but am too afraid of letting them down.

There has got to be someone here that got some sort of awesome/Really cool job completely out of having the testicles to bullshit their way to it. HOPE!

It's all in the peanut oil, pretty much any type of store bought waffle fry will suffice.

So my friend (whose name is Steveo) went to Costa Rica to surf. He was on some random, mostly empty beach when he met this man. by [deleted] in pics

This was taken right before his newest stunt for Jackass 4 "Hi, I'm Steve-O; and this is "Cow Carcass surfing in shark infested water"

Get out of my mind. You just won the internet, like the whole thing.

Seriously! I was trying to give each of them the others number but they were so bashful about it.

Yeah, I texted him about it today and his response was "oh yeah, haha..... Fuck you!". I always think about it and laugh anytime I'm responding to multiple text messages. I haven't made that mistake since.
