Before I begin, just a quick word to all the up and coming scripts sites out there. Folks, I’ve gotten quite a few e-mails from scripts sites lamenting the fact that a lot of sites out there are deep linking to scripts, passing them off as their own, without giving props to the folks who took the time to get the scripts online. This is counter-productive. Please, give props to the script sites that post scripts on their site. You will be rewarded ten fold. Too many script sites stop posting scripts because nobody acknowledges the work they do or simply leach the script away to another site. Be like ScriptCrawler. He shows you where the scripts are and who took the time to get the script on the ‘net. Also, marvel at ScriptCrawler’s new look. Shiny.

So, on to the scripts. See the pilot? Yep, a ton of pilot scripts on the ‘net. Just another Guy in Hollywood has four pilots up – Supernatural, Arrested Development, The Five Mrs. Buchanens: Pilot and Dark Shadows. He’s also got a few more teleplays up, too numerous to mention. Those and other ‘pilots’ available on the TV Scripts page.

Afghan food is good. The Panjshir has good food. I recommend the Sambosay Goshti and the Qaubili Palau. If you are a spicy wuss like me, do NOT stick your Nan in the green sauce. Seriously. I’m so taking the fat Kid and the skinny Kid there next week. “Try this green sauce.” I’m such a mean Dad… – Don

Starting to mix things up here. Rather than put the unproduced scripts up once a week, I’m going to try to get a few up every other day or so. This batch there are nine new unproduced scripts up on the unproduced scripts page.

For you Sin City freaks, you might enjoy listening to Variant Frequencies podcast of the Failed Cities Monologues very noir with a Sin City feel. Don’t have a iPod? Don’t need one. You can listen to them right on your computer. When you get to Variant FrequenciesClick on the little symbol and the story will play on your computer. – Don

The Hatch is now pressEXECUTE.com and has moved to www.pressexecute.com. Not only that, but they have three more Lost scripts up, Solitary, Raised by Another and Hearts and Minds.

On the movie scripts page, thanks to Script Chick and DailyScript you can read this draft of Committed (which was filmed as “Crazy Love”). This movie script would be on the Movie Scripts page. – Don

If you enjoyed Wild Things which I did and found it to be one of the trippiest thriller/mysteries ever, then you may enjoy Andy Hurst & Ross Helford’s penned Rough Diamonds which was filmed as Wild Things: Diamonds in the Rough the third in the trippy Wild Things franchise. Both of these are available on Daily Script.

For those of you who don’t have one, here is a Clue! Awesome Film has a clue. The “clue” they have is the 1985 shooting draft (in two parts – pdf) of Clue. Not some cruddy transcript, but the actual script. These can be found on the Movie Scripts page.

As most of you are aware, well, as most script dorks are aware, there are three drafts of The Matrix available on the ‘net. However, up until yesterday, when you typed in “The Matrix Revolution Script” all that google had to offer up were fan boy transcripts transcribed from watching the movie. While noble endevours, there is nothing like seeing how the later movies were envisioned by the screenwriters. Now, thanks to “The One” and Horror Lair early drafts of The Matrix Reloaded and The Matrix Revolutions are available on the ‘net. For those of you who need a recap of the three drafts of The Matrix, Horrorlair has identified those for you, too.

The blue pill and the red pill can be found on the Movie Scripts page.
