I am very happy indeed about this Myst Movie project, I wish you the very best. I am also very very happy about the use of D’ni Numbers in the movie, hehehe. Uhm… anyway, uh… Good luck.

Oh, yes, I will not be buying a script, stolen or otherwise, I find it hard to follow screen plays, I’m not an actor or a screen writer, and my brain is apparently limited in several respects.

I do see how it would be difficult to inform the audience of certain technical elements without making a scene very dry and uninteresting. This is why I flunked many things through my educational past. Too much dry data, not enough fun and stuff. When you introduce the Art, you must make the audience see through the eyes of that brilliant and curious young woman, Ti’Ana. She soaks up new things like a sponge, and is so excited by what she learns. Make it a visual Thrill for the audience. Make the D’ni words leap off the pages and stuff, but keep the sheer amount of information to a minimum for story progression. I think my suggestions make sense, but then again, I’m an idiot.

Hmmm… If you’re not careful, I may give out your name, address, and freakish physical description.

You’d sue me!?! I’ll defend my right to free speech in court, myself! There’s your court costs!

Oh, you mean the tens of thousands of dollars you’d receive in litigation after I sell your stolen script. Oh, THAT.

Well, then, ladies and gents, as the fringe costs of selling a stolen script have now markedly risen, the price of the copy of the script has now been adjusted to $100,000.

Oh, and BrettM, second drafts are for suckers. Adrian has no need for such perfunctory steps.

David Wingrove had no use for a second draft, obviously.

Oh, BURN!!!

I’d take the dollar if I were you, Yale. Of course, it’s not going to be nearly enough to cover the court costs… >:(

All right, $1.00!! That’s my final offer for the freakish physical descriptions!

Well, okay, freakish physical descriptions might be worth something, if they are really, really, amusing. Just for the entertainment value. I bid two bits.

Bwahahahaha. Identities, addresses, and phone numbers are available to anyone who has $2.04 to spare. I have $2.04, so I already have this information. Freakish physical descriptions are totally irrelevant, and are thus worth $0. Scripts are worth even less, since nothing is set in concrete until filming begins (if even then), and all fans of the D’niverse know the possible storylines. $10,000? Get real!!

I have a copy of the script. I know the Mysteriacs’ identities, their phone numbers, addresses, and freakish physical discriptions. I have all of this. And all of it is now up for sale.

I open the bidding at $10,000 (unmarked, nonsequential bills). Post offers on this forum. I’ll contact the best offer.
