I decided to open a new topic on this.
In general my writing is a bit non-realistic but one of my scripts is really over the top.
It's about a team of doctors starting a private hospital and making as many people as possible believe they're seriously mentally ill. In the final act for instance a patient stood up for all the victims, put the doctor in a washing machine and he came out shrunk. Of course I know this won't happen if I put a doctor in a washing machine but some people always want scripts to be realistic. Only when it's realistic, it's good.
Look at movies like Home Alone, could an 8 year old really do what the main character did?
This is a comment I got:
Sorry but no one will ever be able to do something with this script. There's nothing realistic about it. I give you one advice: throw it away or else any producer will do it for you. Deleting or adding scenes won't save anything. This is officially the worst script I've ever read.
My first reaction was: Man, I must be bad. My second reaction was: it's probably not his style and he prefers movies like "the queen". Then I thought: some others have read it as well and they had a good laugh.
Maybe it's getting interesting when you get called "the worst". It only proves there's some controversy.
The question is: should I get back in touch with this guy? He probably cannot add anything to help it further.
