"I'm having...trouble." - Robocop 2

Wednesday, January 25, 2006
The script is giving me a bit of trouble. I can see the feature possibilities and it makes the scope grow bigger. I only want 30 minutes, with credits at both ends.

Also, I've been doing some reading on string theory and the concept of multiple universes (two very pertinent things to the subject matter) and it's making me think of all kinds of possibilities for the resolution of the plot.

I'm already 1/3 of the way into the script and it's rolling nicely. I think that with some work, I can have this ready in a week or so. But I have to hammer away at it with great resolve.

I'm concerned with rushing through it, but at the same time, I want to be able to finish it and polish it later. I think that's the way to go. Either way, I don't want any aspect of the script to suffer, so I'm gonna take it easy.

I feel good. Very good. The Austin Film Festival will be the launching pad for the film. I entered a script a couple of years ago to Project Greenlight. Sadly, I didn't make it past the first round. But I got a 90 page script out of it that I still plan to develop more.

Things are looking up.
