    DPG - thank you for your reply. Hmm - I'm wondering if it's a better strategy to post a logline without explaining it later on. Obviously - the logline/concept/idea needs to do the heavy lifting.

    DPG – thank you for your reply.

    Hmm – I’m wondering if it’s a better strategy to post a logline without explaining it later on. Obviously – the logline/concept/idea needs to do the heavy lifting. This is where you are exactly correct.

    In response to your confusion. (Looking at what I wrote – it does sound horribly confusing.)

    Now I?m confused. Who falls in love with who first? Does the girl fall in love with the guy first? Or does the guy with the girl first? Do they both realize it at the same time? Who owns the MPR (Midpoint reversal) beat?

    They fall in love at the same time. They both own the MP beat.

    And, frankly, based upon what I understand the story to be about, the black sheep sister now seems to be a more interesting character than the guy. One reason, is because she seems to have a more interesting dramatic dilemma.

    Perhaps so – but it’s not her story. (This is why I feel perhaps I shouldn’t elaborate so much what happens and just let the logline do the talking.)

    Also – as for my theory that there should be two loglines. This experience makes me wonder if one should have ONE solid logline throughout. I dunno – I’m learning by getting beaten up.

    As always – thank you for your thoughts.

    As for me, I’m either going to let this script cool off for a bit, then polish and send it off to my manager so she can tell me off or I’m going give it a lot of distance.

    We’ll see.

    (In fact – perhaps after the distance, I can be genuinely objective and attack the logline with new strength and gusto. We’ll see.)

    DPG - that's exactly right. ?... not one person in the entire motion picture field knows for a certainty what?s going to work? ? and every time you compromise your vision because someone pretends to know better, you?re sacrificing the chance to prove them wrong.If I were to post something now and yoRead more

    DPG – that’s exactly right.

    ?… not one person in the entire motion picture field knows for a certainty what?s going to work?

    ? and every time you compromise your vision because someone pretends to know better, you?re sacrificing the chance to prove them wrong.

    If I were to post something now and you liked it…

    Would you still like it in 6 months time?

    There’s no certainty whatsoever. It’s mad. But it’s true.

    It’s the cold, hard reality of this business.

    Anyways – I’m going to put this one aside and get some distance and work on some high concepts ideas. (Sort of. Kind of. Maybe.)

    I'll just go with the original then...It got 3 votes. People liked it. I can still use it.You have to agree though. This does prove "Nobody knows anything". There's no real certainty ever.?
