ChD Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 I also try to keep my movies very short... well below 5k (like Daniel Rigger and To The Moon), but Heavy Rain is a long game and every little thing counts there, so there is nothing I can do to shorten it...

Alpha Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 Whenever I'm adapting source material (i.e. a book, video game) I like to incorporate every little detail from the material, and my films end up being like 20k words. The first 5 minutes of Tom Sawyer are looking at like, 1k words. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ezen Baklattan Posted February 24, 2013 Author Share Posted February 24, 2013 I saw the trailer for Phantom, and my first thought of seeing Ed Harris on a submarine was "The Shark Mutiny" and "U.S.S. Seawolf." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alpha Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 I saw the trailer for Phantom, and my first thought of seeing Ed Harris on a submarine was "The Shark Mutiny" and "U.S.S. Seawolf." Numbers can predict the future in his films Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4815162342 Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 I am going to be too busy to do the actual Oscars, so if someone who has the time and ability to handle it in a timely fashion wants, they can do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blankments Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 I could do them on March 10... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blankments Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Or anytime afterwards. If everyone's willing to wait that long, I'd love to do them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ezen Baklattan Posted February 26, 2013 Author Share Posted February 26, 2013 I'm okay with that, as I need more time to write my films anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blankments Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Okay, if everyone's fine with that, should I be the one to post the tiebreakers and other Oscar thread? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4815162342 Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Okay, if everyone's fine with that, should I be the one to post the tiebreakers and other Oscar thread? I will handle the tiebreakers and post the nominations, but then I will turn it over to you (I will make it explicit that all PMs go to you). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4815162342 Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 So with the Oscars happening on March 10th (Sunday), I'm thinking we open Part 1 for Year 7 on March 15th, that Friday. Or we could open it on Monday the 18th to give people the weekend. And if someone puts up the Year 8 Advance Schedule before the all-clear is given there'll be hell to pay. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't worry, no one will think of doing that. Monday the 18th sounds good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4815162342 Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 (edited) So recap: Year 7, Part 1 starts Monday the 18th, probably early evening. I'll put up the Year 8 Advance Schedule around the time Part 1 is over. I'm going to be a bit more strict in Advance Schedule rules (as in what goes on it) to prevent people just posting literally all the films they intend to release in the thread. Year 7 Oscar Management Duty is open for anyone to do, but you have some work to do to top Blankments' ceremony. I'll update the Oscar history thread later tonight with Year 6 winners. So start writing and get yourselves ready!!!! Edited March 11, 2013 by 4815162342 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blankments Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 (edited) I'd like to them again eventually, but my next dream host is much more traditional than a Muppet takeover of the Oscars, and I'd want to top myself. Next time I want them will be summer though, so Year 8 or 9. Edited March 11, 2013 by Blankments Into Darkness Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CJohn Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 I will only be able to write stuff on the 22-31 March week. If Year 7 starts before that, please delete my movies from the shedule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well the Year 7 Part 1 thread will be open stretching until mid-April, so you have time. You just won't have all your films ready immediately.
