"Writers are like GODS to agents/buyers /readers. They open every script HOPING it'll take their breath away. And they are invariably disappointed. And that's too bad because movies are SO EASY to write. Once you have your CARDS done (the outline) it shouldn't take more than 4 days of work. For fifty grand? (Honey, throw away the jigsaw, I think I just found myself a new HOBBY!) All the good movies you've seen over the span of your life pretty much obey the same formulae. FASCINATING strong heroic male beats the evil forces around him. Gandhi, Indiana Jones, or E.T.--these three, disparate scripts all had this similar, or even identical palm print that caused them to get READ and taken seriously. May we describe the palm print completely just to be sure you understand what Hollywood basically wants."
