Getting fed-up with projects going nowhere? We get it. Is there any way to deal with that frustration, because we don't know of a sure-fire one. Oh well... Also, Tom WINS the tee shirt on The Movie Quotes Game (finally!), new found toys, listener messages from makemydamnmovie.com Mark's tomb stone wishes (what?) and other stuff and things...

Struggling with story ideas?  Write about things you've done in the past.  Makes it easier to move through your tale because you've lived it.  Also, listener messages from makemydamnmovie.com, a sound effects extravaganza (sorry) and The Movie Quotes Game with some additional classic TV show questions.

We've all gotten stupid script feedback, so isn't it time to rag on it?  Also, stuff to watch and NOT watch on TV, listener messages from the Make My Damn Movie website, The Movie Quotes Game and more stuff that we can't remember (but it's probably pretty good).

In this BONUS EPISODE, writer, producer, director, actor and author ANDREW STEVENS discusses the movie industry in today's environment. He also talks about his book, "Screenwriting For Profit/Writing For The Global Marketplace" and much more!

Where are all the role models in movies and television shows?  We need characters that we actually like to be satisfied at the end of a movie or a TV show.  Also, a review of Neflix's "Inside The World's Toughest Prisons", listener messages from the Make My Damn Movie website, Movie Quotes Game and more.

Dig up the first drafts of your screenplays and comb through them.  You might be surprised how much you've learned.  Also, we will be changing the day we post new episodes from Tuesdays to Wednesdays starting next podcast (next week), to participate or not to participate in the virtual Austin Film festival, listener messages from the Make My Damn Movie website + The Movie Quotes Game and more...

Writing loglines and query letters the right way, and by the way... we actually remembered to record this episode (yay!).  Also, finding the best "Make My Damn Movie" chachki for giveaways, new robots, aliens and monsters (oh my) + the Movie Quotes game and so much more.

This is a "re-do" show.  THOUGHT we were recording earlier, but... So, a TON of bitching and moaning about forgetting to hit record on the podcast the first time around today and reminiscing about what a great podcast it was (ugh!). Re-discussion about writing dialog that is memorable as well as quotable and making a lasting impression with your script.  Also, The Movie Quotes Game (again) and The Robot and Alien show up (again).

More flubs screenwriters make all the time (so stop doing them!). Also, listener messages, why you should never eat SPAM, The Movie Quotes Game and more!

Part 1 of pointing out habitual mistakes when crafting a screenplay. Also, enough with the short-form videos, listener messages + the Movie Quotes Game and more...
