For Your Consideration Screenplays

As we close in on the Oscars, I thought I'd post all of the For Your Consideration Scripts to date. These are *free* and *legal* screenplays for the movies the studios and producers thought had a shot at an Award. These are the production drafts, so they will be what ends up on screen rather than what sold as a spec script (in the case of original screenplays). Sometimes the difference between sales draft and production drafts are just insane! Almost everything has been changed except for the core idea! Though no award winner, the comedy HANCOCK began as a dark, gritty, morose screenplay about a heartbroken drunk superhero titled TONIGHT HE COMES. What's interesting with that film is that both versions have the same core story, just one is taken as a comedy and the other as a tragic drama...
