Dr. Horrible Sequel: Joss Whedon Updates On Second Neil Patrick Harris Film Joss Whedon is a busy guy. A writer/director/producer and cult god, the geek icon is shepherding to the big screen one of next year's most anticipated movies in the Marvel epic "The Avengers," as well as a "Much Ado About Nothing" adaptation he somehow managed to find time to direct in his down time. But, as geek icon and benevolent leader to a loyal internet following, Whedon has certain commitments that far exceed other Hollywood-centric auteurs, and right now, he has a pressing doctor's appointment he must keep. In 2008, Whedon directed the tragic comedy musical web series, "Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog." Speaking to Yahoo! "We have been working on that for a while. It's not the most concrete or promising of updates, but it's progress; in March of 2010, Harris seemed to have no idea what the future held for the series, beyond a potential hunch on its releasing platform. "I don't know what their plans are, but I don't think it will be on the Internet," he told MTV.
Screenplay Basics - Scripped A Scripped Compendium by Johnathan Carr Traditional storytelling recounts past events, whereas screenwriting is locked in the present - thus you may not deviate from PRESENT TENSE. You may also be tempted to describe every inch of the world you're creating - don't! Take comfort in the idea that a screenplay is not meant to have any literary value. As you're writing, be mindful to preserve only the most important details: information that will advance the story. At the beginning of a feature film script, often but not always, the first line will be: FADE IN. While you can write a longer ACTION paragraph, think about keeping it under five lines at a time. In the ACTION line, be sure to capitalize SOUND EFFECTS, CAMERA DIRECTION and the first appearance of a speaking CHARACTER. Use a PARENTHETICAL to note an action the speaker is performing while speaking or if you want to indicate whom the speaker is addressing such as addressing a new character in mid-DIALOGUE. Think subtext.

Hocus Pocus (1993 The 7 Greatest (True) Johnny Depp Stories Ever Told Somehow Johnny Depp always seems to commits the weirdest crimes. Even when the guy is doing something "wrong", he does it with style. He's never been arrested for doing anything outside of the realm of what you'd expect from him, even with all his money. In 1994, Depp was staying at a fancy New York hotel and completely wrecked his room. When police arrived at the scene, there was a smashed glass coffee-table and other destroyed, mangled furniture in the $1200-a-night suite. The alleged creature was never found. Johnny Depp's cavalier attitude about his brushes with the law and incarceration make him even more awesome. The other crime Depp was caught committing is just as unexpected, and pretty damn awesome (not including that paparazzi brawl he had, because really, who could stand those people). The billboard featured Depp holding a gun with the slogan, "Other Kids Pack Lunch," underneath it. Source
