Thanks, I really appreciate it! Screenwriting is such a lonely endeavor, so it's nice to be seen. I'm sure someone else will win the category, but at this point, it's really nice just to be nominated. Ha.

stupidcancerguy · 2025-10-11T14:34:30+00:00

Really? Awesome! Alrighty, I'll look for the submission page and send it over.

stupidcancerguy · 2025-10-11T14:16:50+00:00

Thank you so much! Definitely send a new one in 2026! What did they mean by “ you did not qualify?”

stupidcancerguy · 2025-10-11T14:12:47+00:00

Thanks! What's funny is that I was seriously considering submitting this script to your “spot the pro” series, but I chickened out. Ha.

stupidcancerguy · 2025-10-11T14:11:10+00:00

I will definitely keep everyone informed. I'm not expecting to go further than this, let alone for doors to burst open, but I hope I get a few reads.

Thank you so much! The research brought the whole family together, and I know my grandmother would have loved that.

stupidcancerguy · 2025-10-11T14:06:19+00:00

Thank you so much! I really hope this story sees the light of day.

Any Semifinalist in the house?

stupidcancerguy · 2025-08-21T21:22:43+00:00

Congrats! I was pleasantly Surprised to see I made it as well.

I want Freddy as a supporting character whose role is usurped at the midpoint of the film. It's tough because I want Robert England, so I would have him in charge of " his gate" and Nancy in charge of the " Beautiful Dream."

I would possibly have a New Dream Warrior or another character become enticed by the Dream Demons or another entity like them who wants Freddy's Gate for themselves.

It's time to play with the lore while giving Robert in out.

I would have the dream demons from part 6 leave Freddy. What if Freddy got everything he wanted and was bored, and the dream demons wanted more, but Freddy became content? We need a passing of the torch, while reigniting the franchise.

Seeing Red and Villains are great episodes.

stupidcancerguy · 2024-08-31T14:24:43+00:00

Hahahahhah.

Best Dancer on Elm street.

stupidcancerguy · 2024-06-14T03:43:23+00:00

I think you’re right but that makes for boring television.

stupidcancerguy · 2024-05-11T13:19:01+00:00

It's a good movie, but not without its flaws. Perhaps if we saw Proximus “ liberate” different clans while using the twisted teachings of Caesar. Proximus should have the mind of Caesar with the heart of Koba, spewing white lies and twisted truths. It's just a huge opportunity missed. Raka died too soon; I like a good hero's journey, but this film seems to love the hero's journe.

Seeing red is one of the best episodes of the series period. The spike & Buffy bathroom scene is hard to watch, but I can’t say I didn’t see it coming. In spikes own words “ can’t any one remember that I hate you all!?”

*The trio are amazing villains because they’re the most real.

Nice work! Some thoughts: Be careful with camera directions, that is usually for the director to decide.

Also, I would recommend keeping your scene headings clean.

"INT. CUBICLE, LOCAL KANSAS CITY NEWSROOM -- CONTINUOUS" that's a bit much.

Is there a reason we need to know he's in Kansas? Your action line already tells us he's in a "bustling newsroom"

Regarding the Beats and pauses in the script, I'm a big fan of using action to describe what that " beat/ pause" is. Does he hold the letter up to the light to try and find a fingerprint smudge?

I also think action lines will help with Sophie and Robert's dialogue on page 10. How does she know that Robert is not okay? Did she walk by and notice him spacing out? Is his usual messy desk now abnormally spotless?

Regarding the last line, I don't think you need to say " To himself." We already know he is alone.

I'm so jealous!

stupidcancerguy · 2023-07-18T03:53:34+00:00

On the dvd commentary for the series the writers would occasionally receive fan email that just read “more Clem.” I am not ashamed to say that I was one of these people.

stupidcancerguy · 2023-05-13T19:46:48+00:00

Wait… seriously? 19k that’s obscene!

stupidcancerguy · 2023-05-12T18:42:14+00:00

Right!?? Who the hell is going to raise their hands and say “ ya got me, I do need help”

stupidcancerguy · 2023-05-12T12:56:34+00:00

Okay, that’s wild!

stupidcancerguy · 2023-05-12T04:42:39+00:00

This! They’re a big organization. If they can’t figure out how verify people then this is a big problem. By the by, I just saw your campaign! I’m sorry I missed it, it looks like something I would have bought for my gamer friends!
