  • Open Query letters to Michael B

    Okay, Michael agreed this might be a fun idea. It's largely an experiment so take it for the fun it's intended in.

    There are some ground rules:

    1. Loglines only. Don't post any other ****. A title if you must.

    2. He will only reply with a yes or a no. (unless he otherwise chooses)

    3. No one else is allowed to reply to the loglines (so it doesn't get messy)

    4. Geoff Alexander is not allowed to read the thread, he is welcome to start his own thread though.

    5. Rule #4 is a joke.

    6. Don't complain to me if your idea gets stolen.

    7. One logline at a time, if you want to post another wait a week, or a few days, or something. (Just don't spam the guy)

    8. Good Luck.

                  The Age of Amazing

                  A 20-something wizard attends his high school reunion hoping to demonstrate to his boyhood crush that he's no longer the fat, bullied, paranormal-obsessed geek that he once was, but when a supernatural entity attacks, he's forced to confront a relentless adversary bent on unfathomable destruction, as well as his own troubled past -- which may have inadvertently created it.

                          Haven't settled on a title for this comedy:

                          When a power outage causes a struggling standup comedian to miss his "big break" meeting with a television superstar, he goes through a hellish series of misadventures through NYC as he struggles to get to the star before he leaves town.
