Who am I, the Crack Fairy? Get your own damn crack.

The Crack Fairy? Is this a re-make of 'The Tooth Fairy' done by the same people who remade Wizard of Oz as 'The Wiz' ... ???

LOL!

The drycleaning bill for my now chocolate milk-stained shirt will be along shortly.

i share agents with one of the writers involved, and i was having lunch in the midst of this deal with said agent, and while i haven't read the script, i have been told a very detailed sketch of it, and it's not a rip-off of ellison's "edge of forever."

why is it, i wonder, that so many people want to poo-poo another's success?

anyway, congratulations, bill, if you post here...

Isn't "The Crack Fairy" a gay porn flick? I coulda sworn.

And aren't all stories the old stories, the human myths? I don't think something need be a ripoff of Ellison's work if it hinges on changing the past and includes a romantic dilemma. I mean, that was even in the Narnia books. Okay, not the sex part though.

Actually, I'm very glad to hear that. In fact, I hope there's no similarity whatsover. That means I can still rip it off.

Then there is that good ole Ray Bradbury story about the guy hunting dinosaurs that step on a bug and comes back to find that Hitler won, or something like that. Coming to a theater near you.

The basic story is about a federal agent who loses some men in a ferry explosion caused by a "terrorist". The body of a woman is found (downstream of the tragedy and not marred by the explosion) and the agent deduces that the terrorist murdered the woman and used her car to drive the explosive device on the ferry. Then (out of nowhere) some scientists approach the agent and explain that they have a time machine. The agent ends up using the machine (there is no scientific explanation) by going to the past (the machine can only go back like four days or something) to catch the bomber before the explosion. Naturally, he falls in love with the woman. Overall, it's an okay concept that gets some convoluted treatment. It'll get a major overhaul in the rewrite process and could turn into a suspenseful popcorn thriller.
