I have two screenplays up on the BL and both were clearly reviewed by the same reader. I thought this was funny enough to share, even if it's a little irritating:
From the review for Script 1:
The writing is excellent - it's clear that the writer has genuine talent, good instincts, and a distinct point of view, as all three shine through on every page. Even the action lines have an almost spartan sense of style that adds plenty of texture to the read while still remaining succinct, working in tandem with the organic dialogue to create a taut, engaging read… Centering the piece on a female protagonist is easily the script's greatest selling point; as Hollywood becomes more and more aware of the importance of on-screen representation, executives are actively seeking out scripts across genres featuring strong, leading roles for women.
From the review for Script 2:
The writing itself is very strong - it's clear that the writer has genuine talent, a distinct point of view, and great instincts, as all three shine through on every page. Even the action lines have a rare sense of style that adds texture to the read, working in tandem with the organic dialogue to create a taut, engaging piece. Peppering the cast with so many female characters is easily the script's greatest selling point; as Hollywood becomes more and more aware of the importance of on-screen representation, executives are actively seeking out scripts across genres featuring leading roles for women.
(Most of the characters in Script 2, including 5 of the 9 main characters, are male).
