  • Your Favorite First Ten Pages

    This was a thread at 2Ads and I thought I'd throw the pebble here since this board is more active.

    Some Like it Hot. Hands down. Best opening in screenplay history.

    Close second? Brain K. Vaughan's Y: The Last Man.

        Source Code. Never saw it coming.

        The pilot for Kings, too. And the pilot for Lost.

          I'll have to agree with Chris and throw out Fahrenheit 451 by Frank Darabont.

          Source Code has a great opening.

            It was good, wasn't it? Raw action and emotion and none of it cluttered.

                It perfectly set up the world of the story in an effective and exciting way.

                  This will probablly get me flamed but I really enjoy the first 10 pages of Reservoir Dogs.
