Death Race

Oh right, will be interesting to see what they've done, watched the original on TV not long ago as it happens.

I heard it's a love story.......

Shade, that sounds really good. I'd love to see it on a big screen again! We should maybe have an SDnet biker fright night. The UK distributor was MIA, but I've a feeling they went bust recently. I'd have to check with the sales agent what the status is, but for a screening, we could prolly sort that anyway. The film was remastered from the negs for the dvd release onto digibeta. Do you have a way to run off that? As I think finding a combined print might be rather difficult. We sold em all to foreign distributors when we sold the pic overseas. We shoulda kept one!

Digibeta is no problem for me mate, we've got lots of shiney kit at my place. You're welcome to pop down for a cup of projection tea anytime mate, I've even got off street parking for your SD!

That film clip was quite amusing I want to see the rest of it now!

Hi Lobster,

I was a failed screenwriter at uni. Now I am a failing haulage company owner.

Either next year or year after I plan to do Phil Parkers M.A in screenwriting at London College of Printers.

Do you have any experience of this course? Or any of the alternatives? I know there is another in the third world somewhere....Oh yes, Liverpool!

Cant go there though, already in a minority group with the SD. I wouldnt want to join another, literate Liverpudlians. They can all draw though ............... most of them draw benfits

I watched the trailer last night, it looks a bit shite actually...not really a worthy "remake" if that's what it is.....

I'm sure the audio description track is good though!

I still write a lot of crap. I just do it on here now

I do like the screenwriting courses though I have done several. Trouble is I feel a bit of a fraud as mostly they are full of young writers who want to progress and make a career of it.

Same feeling when I go in fast group on trackdays and find it is full of club racers. I've been there years ago and found out I didnt have it. Now it is just fun to me. But almost everyone else out there is of the 'kill em and eat em' mentality. Now they get a kick out of getting past me and I get a kick out of staying out of the gravel.

I do think I have, maybe, one great screenplay in me. But every year that goes by I get less inclined to put it out there and find out. I guess, for most of us life is better lived with the 'what could have beens' than cope wth the rejection.
