Scripts are all about timing, that's why it's important to get the beats down and follow structure. And why every script in Hollywood, goes through so many rewrites from basic plots points to dialogue to final rewrites: as in a Alvin Sargent (who's brilliant at it)
SO, on that note, I would agree with one person here... can't get pass the first ten pages which is death in Hollywood (even though I re-read to page 30). Like the title, needs a major rewrite, think amazon passed this solely on facebook hype and tech savvy readers. Hence, that's where the problems can lie, hard to shoot stories based off of computer screen...even Social Network never did any big numbers in the US...did overseas, based off of Fincher's rep...he's a God like figure in the European film-making community.
Would like to see the next draft to fully review this script.
Klute, Midnight Cowboy, GodFather, Serpico, Blues Brothers, A Night at The Opera, Seven, The Game, We Need to Talk about Kevin, Ants, Avatar, Toy Story, just to name a few.
David Fincher, learned how important visuals are in prepping a movie. John Frankenheimer, setting up shots, Walter Hill, know what you want to shoot, Robin Schiff, comedy writing at it's best, Alvin Sargent, rewrites!
