Lancelot Link Thursday

Lancelot Link Thursday! For those of you who think they need to remake John Landis' movie SCHLOCK! with modern special effects, here are some articles about screenwriting and the biz plus some fun stuff that may be of interest to you. Brought to you by that suave and sophisticated secret agent...



Here are five cool links plus this week's car chase...

1) Frank Sinatra *IS* Dirty Harry! and other films that never were!

2) Cinemacon: What will this summer's flops be - from people who have seen more of the films than anyone!

3) Movie Barcode - great films turned into skinny lines of information.

4) Brain Garfield (DEATH WISH) on Don Westlake (POINT BLANK, THE HOT ROCK).

5) Screenwriting news from The Onion.

6) This week's car chase is from NO PROBLEM! a 1975 comedy that's kind of a riff on THE TROUBLE WITH HARRY...

IMPORTANT UPDATE:

TODAY'S SCRIPT TIP: Revealing - which is not about turning an adult cow back into the baby cow.
Dinner: Burger, onion rings & Barney's Beanery.
Pages: Still trying to dive back into this script after working on 2 others for a week... and struggling.
Bicycle: No - had a screening to go to.
