    My mom always told me I was on her black list. So I got that going for me.

      It looks as thought it's been made open to the "public".

        No. It's still only voted on by execs.

          I hope some of us get on it -- good luck everyone. I don't know if any people voting read our script, but it's fun to dream.

            Sorkin's Facebook script will be on there.

            I wouldn't be surprised if KRISTY got a couple votes. I'm sure BURIED will get a vote. PRISONERS might get a few votes.

                Is that the kind of cough you make when the doctor cups your testicles?

                  These are all in some form of pre-production, no? Isn't the Blacklist "the best unproduced scripts" in Hollwood? I thought the whole point was to bring attention to deserving scripts that have been overlooked. It's pretty lame if the execs choose 100 scripts (from their clients) that are already being dev'd.

                    Those are all guarantees, if they qualify.

                      Last year Inglourious Basterds got twenty-some votes, even though it had already started shooting in October.

                        That's a bummer. I don't think Tarantino needed a career boost, nor does it illustrate any creative thinking on the parts of the voting execs. At that point, all the Blacklist is, is a script contest for repped writers. [fart noise]

                          It's hard to make any predictions about the Black List because some agents and managers push hard for their client's material to be included and some don't. And some great scripts are slipped to a few production companies and sell quickly and therefore didn't get read all over town.

                          I would expect that even more managers/agents will be trying to game the list this year because of the market. It will be interesting to see the results--but I wouldn't expect the numbers to be a perfect reflection of the year's most interesting unproduced scripts.

                            @Loopdesign: LOL! You hit the nail on the head. This is exactly how I feel about the BL.

                              How can Sorkin's Facebook script be up there if they are shooting it? And he was hired to do the script? I thought it was supposed to be scripts that are not slated for production...
