computers - and especially programming them - is the antithesis of "cinematic"

good luck with that one.:D

I'll just walk in to the producer's office and say "HEy! Buddy!! I want the director to film it EXACTLY AS I WROTE IT!"

I'll point at him/her when i say it. i bet that will work. I'm kind of a big guy and wrested in high school (16 years ago....)

Producers LOVE being manhandled - the right ones at least;)

Sionce i started programming, and had been dreaming baout writing movies, i have always thought "wouldnt it be great to have a computer programme rin a movie, who actually programs, rather than random typing and a bunch of flashy shit happening on the screen?"

i cant for the life of me understand why spell checker would be a priority for you ?

:p

I've been using Movie Magic Screen Writer for a while now and I love it, I actually prefer it to Final Draft which I used to use. Less glitchy, very easy to use, gives you everything you need (has all the predicitve spelling for names, locations etc), saves to PDF and also has a neat funstion where a computer voice reads out your script for you. Fair enough its very simplistic and sounds like Stepehn hawking and his female counterpart chattering away but it helps in finding errors and judging the pace. Plus its cheaper.
