The older I get, the more detailed my outlines get. I wish I could say I just had a different process in the beginning, but the truth is that I had no process at all. For me, it wasn't creative. It was impatience and laziness. And it hobbled my screenwriting for years.
It's hard to convey the excitement of seeing SUPERMAN in the theaters in 1979. There had never really been anything like it. A huge blockbuster superhero movie that seemed fully grounded in our world. Even in this clip, Donner voices the same sense of wonder from the crowd that…
The idea that certain events happen on certain pages in screenwriting sounds ridiculous because it is. But so are training wheels. Which is what those suggestions are. Once you get comfortable with that rhythm, you can drop it and focus on the story's actual needs instead.
If you neglect strong choices about your plot points, you tend to drift toward them in your screenwriting. But if you make those choices first and then figure out how to get there, your writing generates more energy and narrative momentum. Always know the story you're telling.
This podcast is about sobriety more than screenwriting, but it turns out Nick and I covered much of the same ground in 90s Hollywood with his time at Phoenix Pictures. It's a fun conversation, especially as we discover so many shared connections from back in the day.

Every scene happens one moment at a time. An actor has to be present for all of them. They have no choice. They're the last guardians of that truth. Learning to analyze your own screenwriting like an actor shows you all those moments you don't realize you're skipping.
It's easy to get frustrated by bad screenwriting notes. Don't. Few have a genuine process for development. It's not their fault. No one taught them. But if YOU have a process, you can take their notes and put them through yours.
Screenwriting is about the minimum effective dose. Evoke an image rather than describe it. Let the verb do the heavy lifting. Or a single, well-chosen adjective. The requirement is making the choice of what you want in that moment so you know what "effective" means.

@jakethornton Ghost projects or vapour projects are the worst. They exact a huge toll of lost opportunity from writers. Sorry dude. That sucks.

🚨NEWS🚨 Brandon Tyson has signed w/the @bellevueprods team after Pipeline intros! Brandon was a Semifinalist in the 2022 Screenwriting season, we helped him develop the script, he worked on it, sent to us for a final review, and… Here we are. This process: worth it. 💥

No words. All the feels. Set up? Payoff.
5 yrs ago, we witness real cinema hrs! 🐐 Avengers Endgame
@storyandplot Oh yeah, this was an amazing scene. But now that I’m older, I can’t help but laugh at the fact that Superman shares his first on screen appearance with a pimp, lol.
@storyandplot I'm 29, and grown up with The New Adventures of Superman, Smallville, Superman Returns, MoS and now Superman and Lois...that score by the great John Williams and the potrayal of Boyscout by Christopher Reeve are the Bars that cannot be reached. This movie is truly special.
@storyandplot It is impossible to hear that theme and not smile like an idiot. It's magnificent. And Superman has aged shockingly well. Just a fabulous film, end to end.
@storyandplot While I was too young to see this in theaters I’m hoping it’s comparable to what it must’ve felt like when I saw Batman ‘89 at my local cinema when I was 11. I can still feel that thrill of Elfman’s theme playing over that opening title shot of the emblem.
@storyandplot you and me both, brother. It's on my personal GOAT list.
Mission to not think about how much I miss Bill Paxton while watching ALIENS challenge: utterly failed.
PREACH!
The idea that certain events happen on certain pages in screenwriting sounds ridiculous because it is. But so are training wheels. Which is what those suggestions are. Once you get comfortable with that rhythm, you can drop it and focus on the story's actual needs instead.
Holy shit, I cannot express enough how much I loved Miracle Mile. It's incredible, unrelenting and the closest a movie has ever come to capturing the panic and dread of my nightmares. Absolutely stacked cast too. Without a doubt it's easily and instantly in my top ten. Fuck.
I want to see this occult movie.
Have a feature concept and unsure where to start or if your ideas will work? Look no further! 😊Jeff simplifies the process so that you can spend your time on the creative part.
Feature breaking time. Four zooms. One group zoom for principles. Three individual zooms to break story. Learn by doing. What’s it cost? Less than others charge for a read. Email Marsha at [email protected] or DM me with questions. Been workshopping this and know it helps.
@storyandplot Thank you, Tom, for writing this post. It was informative and affirming. So glad I found you!
@storyandplot I find the Save the Cat ‘rules’ we’re helpful for the first couple of scripts as a learning exercise, but have long since stopped any checking that things are happening on the ‘correct’ page.
That being said, the development executive I’ve met with twice over a couple projects asked me this time if I had any writer friends I’d like to recommend to him, and I did! Referrals are the name of the game.
There are so many people whose scripts I've loved but because of their behavior both online and in person I have had to cross them off my "would work with" list. And I don't recommend them to people either when asked (only the ones I have actually dealt with IRL)
