The reason of all speechlessness

hucksblog.blogspot.com




This blog is not just funny and offers incredibly entertaining writing. It's also featuring a lot of insight on how a screenwriter can deal with crimson ape agents, dumb fucking lesbian agents, asian actors, boywonder directors.
It is as if Josh Friedman, the author (also of the first draft of WAR OF THE WORLDS) is unfolding little movie episodes before your eyes as you read his blog entries.

I'm personally involved into two different virtual worlds of fandom.

No.1: The german internet gatherings of fans of three investigators books and audio tapes. Here people are german and talk german.
It occasionally occurs that I have confusions in language because i'm constantly switching from german language to
anglo american websites:
No.2: The internet community inhabited by star wars geeks, chewers. comic shop clerks, people who read the simarillionpeople who use to type first into their subject box, browncoats, trolls, plants, people who claim to know someone whose friend works at ranch, people who know somone who knows the indy4 script and says the darabont draft was better, people who are making , people who own more than a thousand dvds (not me), people who were inspired by steven spielberg (me) , folks who share the deep love to movies and filmmaking.

In Josh Friedman's blog these two worlds collided when he was mentioning the three investigators in one of his posts. That was quite a clash- experience for my part.
