Hey folks, welcome to Spitball!, the world's first screenplay written by blog.You may want to read the posts in our about section, particularly our Statement of Purpose

Or, you can start on the first post and work your way through sequentially by using the 'suceeding' links above the post name.

Who?

There are two of us here: Kent M. Beeson (aka Urban Shockah) bio, and Martin McClellan (aka Burley Grymz) bio.

Speedy Synopsis

After fighting through 50 different story ideas, the boys have picked Time to Die as the script to write. They are now starting the writing process.

Wow, so many mixed feelings about this, about a couple of things. First, we did pretty much reach the end on this one (or at least, I feel like we're holding back, because one of them is destined for more discussion anyway), but can I say I've really enjoyed this round? It felt like, because I didn't have very strong feelings about either story idea, I could stand back and be somewhat neutral and just enjoy looking at each plot from different angles. It really felt like spitballing, I guess because I felt like I didn't have to pimp one of the nominees.

(But that could easily change if we vote for different stories!)

And I came to really like both ideas, and it's a shame that they didn't lend themselves towards consolidation. I sorta don't want to vote, because my personal inclination is that I vote when I feel 70/30 about the two nominees, and I'm only at about 55/45 with these two.

But one has to win, and so I'm going to back the one that I feel is the furthest along the development path:

Methane Madness.
