Re: ScriptShadow Top 100 Loglines is UP
I didn't enter, but enjoyed reading them. Some great concepts. Some that will rely entirely on the execution. One or two distinctly average ones. One or two that are almost carbon copies of other movies (one or two SIMPSONS DID IT! loglines too!)
I'd say out of the 100, I'd watch 20 should they become movies. Which is a pretty good turnout, considering the subjective nature of all this.
My 10 favorites were-
(I haven't included the loglines just in case this is bad form)
Silent Night
The Professor's Daughter
Traders (the age old switcheroo, but a new take)
Belli
Spying and Lying
Osiris Revivals
Bible Con
Lousianna Blood
The Mother Load (incredible title!)
Tainted
If any DD'ers are responsible, nicely done! They were great! Especially Silent night. I can already see the conflict there. Bible Con gets there purely on the last 3 words that rendered it the first logline I've ever laughed out loud at.
Good stuff!Last edited by Harbinger; 11-16-2009, 12:42 PM.

I spotted at least five Done Deal folks... plus myself, I also spotted me!

Re: ScriptShadow Top 100 Loglines is UP
FAILED ENTRY
This was a short script that I thought I could work into feature form if I made the cut. Probably isn't something I'll bother with otherwise.
Title: Yonderwindow Breaks
Genre: Psychological Thriller
Logline: Stuck in a seemingly endless chain of dreams, a man delves deeper and deeper into the world of his subconscious as he struggles to discover why he cannot awaken, becoming convinced that he's at the center of a larger, even Biblical, conspiracy.
Reading it now, I'm realizing that I made it sound like a plodding melodrama where a guy sits around rubbing his temples and agonizing over his inner demons. It's the word "subconscious" hanging there like a turd.
