BY RULE, if a character is dead, one of your other characters killed them
All antagonists should thinly veiled caricatures of Donald Trump.
Someone should yell “Can someone PLEASE tell me what’s going on?” In every scene or the audience wont understand.
You haven’t LIVED until you’ve written a scene in a car
To create a compelling, relatable villain, ask yourself why YOU murdered everyone on that fishing boat back in 1986.
Ideally, every movie should be the visual equivalent of U2’s album “The Joshua Tree”
Steal every idea given to you by Uber drivers. That’s free money, baby.
When writing musicals, screenwriters are discouraged from writing choreography such as, “kick line,” “the Duck Man goes to pound town,” etc. Decisions surrounding the Duck Man are generally left to the director.
If a character starts eating a grapefruit during their scene, the audience NEEDS to see them finish that grapefruit before you can move on.
“Subtext” is a technique used when two of your cuck characters are too beta to just say their feelings like grown ass adults
Don’t write if your hand is covered in the shards of a broken egg
The best stories are the ones everyone can relate to, so make sure your protag takes a huge shit three or four times a movie
Try to work this dog into your story if you can
Capitalize names, sluglines, and when pirates say YARG!
If the audience isn’t horny as fuck leaving the theater then you haven’t done your job
Any movie can be quickly improved by adding a “trying on dresses” montage.
Never show anyone your first draft. As soon as it’s finished, throw that shit straight in a trash can. Burn it. Bury the ashes DEEP underground. Never tell anyone you wrote. Take the secret to your grave.
Every time you introduce a new character, flash back to the moment of their birth so the audience knows they’re real.
At the end of Act 2, you can signal a character has really hit rock bottom by having them lose a game of Mario.
