>Anon keeps hustling at screenwriting, despite working retail at 29 with no agent or connections, clinging to the hope that if he ever musters the courage to submit his work, it’ll be so good he’ll break into the big leagues instantly and become rich, famous, and important.

This. People like us should just get UBI. It would keep us out of the way of functioning parts of society and prevent a lot of petty crime. They already give it to Israel anyway.

I'm in my mid-20's and I've never even come close to having a job. Yes, my parents have that look in their eyes when I enter the room.

Writing scripts is the last way you should be trying to get into the business. Need to ingratiate yourself first with the people.

literally me but with recording music, if i can write and record one god tier EP i can immortalize myself on songwriting and character alone
>>
>>216832426
me too, partly because i know nobody reads anything
i used to make money through content writing before they deployed the algos
i wanted to pivot into technical writing but it turned out they use these subnormal editing programs that i don't give a fuck about learning

Anons, this is Adaptaion (2002), watch it instead of typing out your ridiculously boring life stories.

I'm sorry but this movie is literally about me, this scene was just a candid camera

Anon's life stories are told in Truman Show threads

I didn't like Cage in this movie. He acted like he had a painfully itchy STD. It was uncomfortable to watch. This movie made no sense. This is why I didn't like this movie.

The movie made perfect sense.

In order to be a good writer, you have to have a curious mind.

Kaufman is peak jewish neurotic writer
He's so neurotic there hasn't been any writers since him. Probably the last great hollywood writer. Now it's just bunch of diversity hires
>>
>>216835244
Even he can't get movies made anymore. His future is as a novelist, I think.
>>
>>216835254
He has several projects lined up and his last movie came out last year.
>>
I'm going to start working on my novel, I hate the film industry too much.
>>
>>216835254
i think his name will sell any producer but wasnt he writing some 3000 page novel or something for a while?
>>
>>216835310
>several projects lined up
Production on his new movie shut down. The last movie he directed was in 2020. The only things he's made since then have been short films, one was released on fucking YouTube.
>b-but Orion and the Dark
He wrote that in 2016
>>216835425
His name doesn't get him anything. After Synechdoche, New York flopped, he was basically in movie prison. He's said this in many interviews, he can't get financed because his movies don't sell.
>3000 page novel
He's writing a second novel but I don't know anything about it being longer than the first
>>
>>216832484
Please find a job. Big difference between having a shit, dead-end job and being a NEET. One is bad, the other is hopeless. At least with a shit job you can still make enough money to make decisions for yourself.
>>
>>216835466
>movie prison
As a director probably, if he's asking for complete creative control or something sure I can see that. He will always forever have options though if he just wants to make movies. Also I may be thinking about some anecdote about an early draft of antkind. I remember he cut a lot.
>>
>>216832426
>>216832662
I love writing and my novel is good. I know because I've written enough bad ones to tell the difference. Even if it gets published though it's not a cookbook or a paranormal romance so I won't make any money.
>>
>>216832300
Never give up on your dreams.

>>216835493
This, as a 32y/o NEET I went from being attractive and charismatic to sort of doughy and socially awkward. You can't survive without self agency and relying on the state saps your soul.

Plus, I haven't given up yet - if I'm still going, why would anyone under 30 stop trying? Don't end up like me, but also realise people like me are still trying to make it out despite the almost decade difference.

I remember reading somewhere that 4chin and similar imageboards created a different tense in english when you
>imply
I forget what it's called
>>
>>216835665
Isn't it just 2nd person tense and the "You are" is omitted?
>You are implying that OP is not a faggot.
>>
>>216835665
It's a gerund form noun phrase without a predicate
>implying I read your post
is short for, "Implying I read your post would be incorrect."
>>
>>216832484

Get a job. Even a dumb, stupid one.
Earning your own money is a very good feeling ngl.
Parents who still give money to their NEET sons so they spend their days playing vidya and jacking off are a big part of the problem.
>>
>>216832300
There is one strict rule if you want to get into tv and film writing: MOVE TO LA. It is literally not going to happen for you if you don't live there.
>>
Anon needs to realize studios are relying more on AI to write their scripts and in a few years screenwriters will be used only for low budget indie flicks
>>
>>216836642
LA studios are dying. Aiming low in the tax-break zones can only be easier.
>>
>>216836642
All the film productions nowadays are in Canada, uk and new Zealand
Nobody makes films in america anymore

>>216836705
this is a preproduction thread though

Merry Christmas!

As long as your father last name is Goldstein you will get work in hollywood

this is the definition of vulnerable-type narcissism. You believe you have a special talent unique in the word but its your moms fault, society's fault that you haven't been recognized. Many NEETs are just narcissists who believe they are special boys, very thin skinned, easily insulted. Broke, ugly and useless but somehow still better than everyone else in their mind. It's a sickness.
>>
>>216832426
Writings fun, production is a bitch

For as much as I hate Kevin Smith, he set a good example. Just go out and make a fucking movie.
>>
>>216839570
how does that relate to woody allen?

>>216832839
Kek, this. Guaranteed that Donald’s supposed hack screenplay was better than whatever pretentious trash you faggots are writing.

Half of the songs on Spotify have never been played. It's grim

Can't put a date on the screen to show what day it is. Instead the character has to turn on the radio and the DJ says " it's a beautiful sunny day on December 25, 1968, Merry Christmas and up next it's The Beatles with Yellow Submarine". I'm a good writer

>>216839596
With iPhones way too many people are doing this now to get noticed. Dong tho in 1994 was way harder

i always hated it and gave it to my parents

The problem with voice-over is that it’s so often used in bad movies to cover for flaws in the narrative that would otherwise confuse the audience.
>>
>>216839733
theres nobody left to notice anyway, just gotta build your own audience
>>
>>216839596
Christopher Nolan as well. Following took years to complete.

>>216832300
Based. It's 1000x better actually to try and fail at shit. Too many people lose their souls and passions as they get older.

You should pursue shit even if you're not going to make it.

Good. Continue to make them suffer for their failure. They had complete and total control over you during your entire goddamned childhood and couldn't mcfucking teach you an ounce of responsibility. They got exactly what they deserve.

James Cameron was a truck driver with no hollywood connections. He had ideas about metal robots from the future covered with organic flesh, and had to work his way with no help to make it into a film.

If you doubt something will happen, it wont happen, not because of the world, because of YOU.

>>216837854
Cage was meant for roles like these but he insists on being an action star
Wasted career

ummm sweaty he stole that idea from litigious jew harlan ellison, thrice may his kike name be damned

at that point you just give up, make a crazy vanlife/urban explorer etc youtube account and do insane and dangerous shit and hope to one day end up on rogan or something with some bullshit life details to make you sound more interesting than you are before getting your own NF show; in which you quickly die because you'd no idea wtf were doing in the first place and become a mid-tier internet meme

Cameron had worked in Hollywood for years by that time and specifically got Terminator made due to his connections.

His action roles are the minority thougheverbeit
