Chapters
The movie opened with the characters played by Steve Carell and Julianne Moore on a dinner date together. Steve's character asked his wife what she wanted for dessert, and she responded with something completely unexpected. “I want a divorce.” What seemed like a happy couple suddenly found their marriage falling apart. The strange part was that Cal, Steve's character, never even tried to convince her not to go through with it. He agreed almost immediately. He didn't even ask for a…- 1.1 M • Ongoing
“Hey, is it okay if I invite Silvie over?” I asked, loosening my tie as Al and I walked inside the house. He opened the fridge and grabbed a bottle of beer. “Which one is she?” I grinned. “She’s the one with the brown hair… and that rack.” I motioned at my pecs to indicate the most distinguishing feature of hers. Al gave me a judging look for all of two seconds before shaking his head. “No.” “What do you mean, no?” I asked, my demeanor shifting slightly from happy to…- 297.0 K • Ongoing
- How the hell would he play Josh? He's too... cool. I need a lovable nerd for that role, not a guy who spends half his time at the gym. He could play Christian if he wanted to. Maybe even Elton, but Josh? Hell no. Ugh. Not again. I was already starting to hate the casting industry. Brad Pitt was undoubtedly one of the most handsome men of this era, yet I didn't see casting directors turning him down for roles. So why did my appearance irk them so much? I realized my mistake as soon as I looked down…

- “Man, had I known theater school was this much fun, I’d never have gone for an English degree at Harvard. I feel like I wasted my time there.” I nodded. “Same here. Spent the first two years learning International Relations. This is so much better.” “Mr. Pierce is very cool as a teacher,” Matt said. “Of course he is,” I agreed. “Most teachers here are. That’s why I knew they wouldn’t mind you doing it.” “Thank you so much, Cal,” Matt began. “I really don’t know…

- @Tomas12: Harry: I’m a what?HAGRID: Yer a WINNER, Harry! @NovaKnight: Let’s fucking go! 12 Oscar wins in one night! That’s what I’m talking about! Harry Potter is my childhood, my comfort, my first love, my obsession, my life. Thank God the world finally acknowledges it as much as I do. @LunaBliss: When the movie came out, people were laughing about how long it was. Who’s laughing now? @SereneDreamer: I’m literally crying so hard my boyfriend had to console me for nearly an hour. I…

- “Thank you for coming here to see me,” I said, shaking hands with the man in front of me. John Landis gave me a nod. “It’s okay. I’ll do anything for my film. It’s my baby.” There was something in the way he said it that made me feel a little uncomfortable in his presence. Nonetheless, I indicated for him to take a seat on the couch opposite me. “So,” I began after a few moments of silence, “Why do I have a feeling that you came here not just to discuss the script with…

- “I just don’t understand what her problem is!” the man standing across from me shouted, pointing at the girl behind me. “She seemed desperate to fuck with the film. She was told we’d provide whatever she wanted to help her ease into the interview, but this is not acceptable at all. I will fuck...” “Hey!” I cut in before the conversation could get any more heated. “Asshole. Fuck off before I decide I don’t want to do any interviews for this film either.” “But Noah—” he…

- “Oi! Wanker! I need those lights o’er here!” A man came rushing over with the lights toward the first AD, who was coordinating the crew on set. “Did he just call a crew member a wanker?” Tom asked in bewilderment. I shrugged. “Could be his nickname or something. I really don't wanna ask.” Tom laughed and shook his head. We admired the view of Northern England spread out before us. Away from the bustling environment of a big city like London, this was the real deal. Sure, the…

- “So, what do you think, huh?” I asked with a raised eyebrow, leaning forward eagerly in my first-class airplane seat. Robert Zemeckis, who sat beside me, sighed, took off his glasses, and rubbed his eyes thoughtfully. After a few moments, he put his glasses back on and looked me directly in the eye. “I’ll be blunt with you, Noah,” he began slowly. “I think you’d be good in this role.” “But?” I prompted, because I could see it coming from a mile away. “But casting you in…

- I typed furiously on my computer, trying to make each scene as cinematic as possible. That's a big part of adapting a book into a movie. Some things that work really well on paper and feel gritty can simply make viewers uncomfortable on screen. Like this one scene I’m working on currently where the male protagonist was almost violated by a trucker. Yeah, no one wants to see that. Instead, he can become a hero by saving a girl from a similar situation. I know it’s a little sexist, but that’s…
