    A disgraced scientist sends a message into a blackhole, never expecting the terrifying message it sends back, now he has just days to prove to the world that this time he is right.

    Essentially his sending a message into the black hole and never expecting a reply is unrelated to the story. The story really starts after he gets a message from inside a black hole (laws of physics not withstanding...) and his main action according to the logline is to earn the scientific communityRead more

    Essentially his sending a message into the black hole and never expecting a reply is unrelated to the story. The story really starts after he gets a message from inside a black hole (laws of physics not withstanding…) and his main action according to the logline is to earn the scientific community’s respect again.

    I find this a week action to take as appose to save the world. Why not change the opening of the logline to reflect the inciting incident and then clarify the stakes by elaborating on his actions to save the world.

    My try:
    After a disgraced scientist receives a message from outer space he has a few days to convince his peers that an Alien invasion is immanent and save the world.

    Hope this helps.

    Could you add a "ticking time bomb" that relates to their relationship with a mystery for them to solve and raise the stakes that way. To make this work look at Phone Booth and see how they sustained the tension in that premise. Otherwise as DPG said it doesn't sound compelling as a concept for filmRead more
