The fall of troy
(Character A is "carrying" an invisible box. Character B walks up to A.)
b: Whoa, what the duck are you doing?
(A is now pulling invisible objects out of the box and placing them on the floor.)
a: [preoccupied]What was that?
b: I asked What you were doing right here. What is all this?
A starts to walk off. Almost ignoring B, A disappears.
B: What the hell?!
(A comes back, carrying another invisible box, walks up to B.)
A: Excuse me.
B: What are you doing?
A: Isn't it obvious by all the things I'm carrying?
A puts the box down. He starts to pull things out again.
B: That's what I'm asking, what the hell is this, there's nothing actually here!
A: They're invisible, idiot.
B: Okay, where'd you buy all these invisible things?
A stops what he's doing.
A: Man, you don't know anything, do you?
B: What?!
a: You don't buy invisible things. I painted these things invisible.
B: Oh. Well what are you doing with all these invisible things?
(A starts to pull things out again.)
a: I'm Building something.
(He steps back, then makes a frame with his hands, looking at the invisible objects as a picture. B stares at him funny.)
B: Building what?
A: Wouldn't you like to know?
B: Yeah, no duh. That's why I asked. Also, why did you paint the pieces invisible Before you started putting them together?
a: When else would I paint them?
B: After?
(A pauses.)
a: I hadn't thought of that.
(A goes back to the pieces on the floor and sits down, piecing them together.)
b: So what is it?
A: It's a mounted bracket that utilizes a trip-wire mechanism.
B: Oh yeah? what are you going to do with the trip-wire?
A: It's called a Trip-wire. What do you think?
B: Oh yeah. Well what are you gonna trip?
a: My villain.
B: Your villain? What are you a super-hero?
A: I will be, once I defeat this villain, what are you? Dumb?
B: No.
(B picks up a piece and looks at it, A pulls it away from him angrily.)
A: Why are you trying to steal my ideas and my tools?
B: I'm just trying to find out who this villain guy is.
A: Help me out and I'll let you know.
B: Okay, well what do you need me to do?
A: First mission?
B: Yeah?
A: Don't touch any of this crap right here!
B: [sighs] Fine. What next?
A: Okay, see that Huge Engine over there?[points off]
B: Clearly not.
A: Right, Invisible! Got it, well just walk over there and feel around for the engine.
(B walks off, feeling around the air, for something.)
A: And make sure you don't burn yourself on the invisible fire!
(B stops and glares at A.)
A: I'm just joking?
B: Why is that a question?! You didn't paint the fire invisible did you?
(Beat.)
B: Come on, tell me that's impossible!
A: That's what I wanted to know, but it worked, I just don't know if it's still up is all, I did it like 30 minutes ago. That and the baby dinosaur.
(B laughs.)
B: Okay, I thought you were serious with the fire.
(B does a quick step back in pain.)
b: OW! What the hell was that?!
A: I told you...baby dinosaur. Invisible baby dinosaur, I'd make a fortune if people could actually see him.
B: Then why paint it invisible?
a: Why breathe air? Out of Natural born Curiosity.
B: God, you don't even listen to yourself speaking, do you?
A: Will you stop lollygagging and get that damn engine over here?!
(B gets something and slowly carries it over.)
A: okay just set it down somewhere, anywhere.
b: what do you mean anywhere? Why would you have me move it if we don't need it in a specific area?
A: So you don't ruin my tripping machine by messing around with my tools.
(A is still piecing things together, hammering pieces. B stops and stares angrily.)
B: Fine, whatever! Now who the hell is this villain guy?
A: Only the biggest cacahead in the whole school.
(Beat.)
B: Go on?!
A: Oh, well his name's Troy, right? And he's always drawing pictures of like, Unicorns with Dragons.
B: So?
A: Have you ever seen a Unicorn?
B: Yeah, so?
A: And have you ever seen a dragon?
B: Yes!
A: What do those two have in common?
B: I don't know, what?
A: Nothing!!!! UGH! That makes me so darn angry!!!
B: Jeeze laweez kid, how old are you?
A: Five, why?
B: Oh, it's nothing. [laughs]
A: Oh yeah? Well then how old are you, huh?
B: If you must know, I'm seven.
A: Okay, Old man. Sheesh!
(A ties something together, then pulls it across to another thing, tying that up as well.)
b: Look, whatever. Is that your only beef with this kid?
A: Villain.
B: Is that your only beef with this Villain?
A: He draws other pictures too, okay? If you saw them, you'd be mad too.
b: Like what?
A: Well, I think I have one right here.
(He pulls something and sticks it in front of them both, they stare at it in awe.)
B: Is that--?
A: Yep, it absolutely is....It's invisible. It was a picture so bad I couldn't even stand to look at it anymore.
B: Urgh! That makes me just want to punch something!
A: Exactly.
B: So what was it? Spiderman and Batman? A giraffe and a Falcon? The sun and the moon?
A: Oh it was worse, I can't even say it.
b: Then he must be stopped.
a: Now, that's what I'm talking about! I finished the tripping system, I just need you to test it.
B: What?! Why?!
A: To make sure it works, why else? What if I went through all this trouble and I didn't trip Troy? What kind of world would that be?
B: It wouldn't actually be so bad, I mean he may not be as bad as you say, I can't even see the stupid picture!
A: Just test it!
B: I'm not going to purposely get tripped by some little baby! I'm seven years old, I'm entitled to be the adult here.
A: Well I built it. so shutup.
b: Then can't we just assume that the trip-wire works and wait for Troy to cross it?
A: No!
B: Why not?!
A: Because then you would be my side-kick!
b: Well what am I now?
A: The tester.
B: Well, look, I'm not going to fall over and that's that.
A: Fine. We'll wait then.
B: Thank you!
A: Quick! Find a hiding spot!
(They both scramble around running to opposite parts and looking on.)
B: Shh! I hear someone coming.
(Someone walks into the scene, they go slowly, walking unexpected until--
BOOM!
They trip onto the floor!)
B: It worked!
A: It Worked!!!
(B starts to dance around.
A is jumping in the air!)
A: Awesome!
B: Whoo!!!!
A: YEAH!!!!
(They stop, the person on the floor says)
c: You guys are real jerks, that really hurt!
B: Serves you right!
a: Yeah!
B: So what do we do now?
a: Now we wait for Troy.
Just finished my 10 page skit
But I don’t know how good it is. Really, so long as I’m done, I’m okay. I was thinking all day over what to do for this script, but it was the best I could do, I’m going to try to post it on here, and hopefully you guys can critique it.

We need to make a plan. So the idea is that we meet in the morning in the Cinemark Parking lot. But we need to know:
Who’s going
Who’s Driving
that everyone knows the way down there
etc.
So if you are going and whatnot, please help in making this plan, if you have no idea what I’m talking about, just ask, but we need to make...

That’s not likely to change for a while, tomorrow’s gonna be tough though.

Digital vs. Film

I hate this argument.
Now although I’m saving up for a digital camera, and I completely agree with the fact that they’re so much more convenient and quick. I have to say that there is something overall better about the film devolping process. Idk, this may be arguable, but I think a lot more attention needs to be placed in film photography. Its not as simple as...

How was your day bud?
I’m assuming you mean yesterday…it was pretty darn good, had some band practice and got to play Gerren’s awesome drum kit, and then went to Apollo park, and had piggy back races in the mcdonald’s parking lot.

First you try to steal my best friend Adam from me and now this?
First off Adam has been my BEST friend since first grade, so unless this is Chris Maya who’s know him since kindergarten, I have to disagree with you there, I didn’t try to steal anyone’s friend. As for the second part, what are you talking about?

okay, so I've got
5 sharpened pencils, 65 pages down, a notebook full of empty pages, and plenty of ideas……
The aim is 25 or 30 pages by the end of the night, let’s hope I at least get close.
Yeah, never before have I wanted to
stop time.
Maybe speed up to get through some shitty situations, or slow down to catch up with schedules and whatnot….. but never stop.
So if I get a superpower, stopping time would be great about now.
Thank you for Margot

Matthew Vaughn’s Kick-Ass Theatrical Trailer! [FirstShowing.net]
Opinions?
Seems like a dumbed-down, less political, Watchmen, intended for the pop culture of today. I feel bad comparing it to Watchmen, but normal everyday people who become superheros, and “kick ass”? Night Owl was kicking ass long before McLovin..
It was fun to read, and it’ll probably be fun to...
Whoa.

I didn’t mean for that to like, start a riot or whatever. I said sorry.
But just like how that annoys you, this kinda thing annoys me too. Because of of one measly song that hit it big, some people choose to hop on the bandwagon, AND THAT’S IT. They don’t stick around for newer songs or take the time to hear some older ones. Just that one song and done. And then on top of that, act...

I’m scared that I have everything figured out.
If need be, I can ruin all that. Just say the word.
So I'm having a hard time defining l.o.v.e
aleesayss:
so I ask around right…and the answers I’m getting aren’t clear enough.
What is love? (baby don’t hurt me) haha
But seriously.
Can you define love?
Dude, I answered, but I had no idea Tumblr only lets you answer once, and I tried a super long answer, but here’s what I put:
I basically said I agreed with everyone’s answer, Love IS acceptance, and comfort, and finding...
Oh yeah
Music

Anyone got anything new?
I guess Our Last Night is ok.
Just Jack and Passion Pit are awesome, that one song “Victory at sea” is by Bobby Birdman, he seems pretty cool, I don’t know if you’ve gotten into Voxtrot, but they’re great, and I like Kid Harpoon as well, so work with that maybe.
So......

It’s a mysterious code. I don’t know if it will ever be deciphered.
Alright
30 pages in 7 days, then another 7 to type out the whole 90-100, including revisions and whatnot.

With each passing day I feel more boring and whiney.
Now read that and bask in the irony(for those readers that didn’t catch it, this was a whiny boring post!), maybe you’ll appreciate more than I.
