Re: My Military Related Script

by **HouseMDfan** Wed Jan 13, 2010 6:00 pm

Though I swear I've seen the premise of this script before somewhere, I do like the idea.

I think the plot itself tells that the movie is one that shows that a man's love can be so great that he does something illegal to save the life of the person he loves.

Plus, he's got the skills to hold up a bank. lol

Outside the windows can be seen the vast sea that is the Atlantic Ocean.
A subtitle flashes across the bottom of the screen saying:

Los Angeles International Airport

The subtitle is then replaced with:

Los Angeles, California

Do you mean Pacific Ocean?

Other than that simple mistake, It is very good! I want a part 2!

Ah yeah, I think that was a mistake I made when I was working on it late at night.

And I'll definitely be writing more to this, so if you've got some suggestions as to some neat ideas for things to happen during the script, I'd be more than happy to consider them. Very Happy

The thing is... I actually would go see it. But the chances of Covert making the film himself would be slim to none. It would be too expensive. But what he could do is sell the script to a well know Media Giant. Paramount Studios (A VALCOM COMPANY), Sony Studios, FOX, etc. He would get a cut of the profit, and well... that would be a lot of money if they do a good job making it. But, I would see it if it was in theaters.

You know what gets me???

Mel gibsons speech in WE WERE SOLDIERS

Moore: Look around you. In the 7th Cavalry, we got a Captain from the Ukraine. Another from Puerto Rico. We've got Japanese, Chinese, Blacks, Hispanics, Cherokee Indians, Jews and Gentiles -- all Americans. Now here in the States, some men in this Unit may experience discrimination because of race or creed. But for you and me now, all that is gone. We're moving into the 'valley of the shadow of death' -- where you will watch the back of the man next to you, as he will watch yours. And you won't care what color he is or by what name he calls God.

They say we're leavin' home. We're goin' to what home was always supposed to be. So let us understand the situation. We are goin' into battle against a tough and determined enemy. I can't promise you that I will bring you all home alive. But this I swear before you and before Almighty God: That when we go into battle, I will be the first to set foot on the field, and I will be the last to stop off. And I will leave no one behind.

Dead or alive, we will all come home together.

So help me God.

I actually plan on submitting this to the Writers Guild of America once it's all finished. And if it's long enough. If anything, I'm guessing it could be made into an hour and a half long film, based on what I have planned.

If it doesn't end up being that long then it could be something that goes on TV. Like one of the hour long short films that channels show sometimes.

But anyways, once I do submit it, it'll be available for any film producer, director, or actor to see. If they like it then it could potentially become a movie at some point.

All I gotta do is hope for the best and aim for the skies. Very Happy

Well... good luck with that... and I hope for the best.

Actually General Hal Moore's speech but okay. I know both General Moore and Joe Galloway personally Smile

That speech always gets me choked up. Especially the Ukraine part.
