This is just me testing out a new piece of scriptwriting software (Celtx) to see if the formatting carries over here at GW better than the Word templates I was using.  Seems to... if you're into that kind of thing, Google "Celtx" and download it; it's free.


          THE PARK

          Everyone goes zipping by.  The park sucks.  No one wants to
          be there.  But there's some dork sitting there on a park
          bench.

                              IDIOT
                    I wonder why the park sucks.

          Some other schmuck arrives, with a big balloon.

                              SCHMUCK
                    It sucks because you're here.
                    That's why.

                              IDIOT
                    Them's fightin' words!

                              SCHMUCK
                    How could I say no?

          Schmuck pulls out a gun and blows Idiot away.  Suddenly the
          park doesn't suck.  People instantly fill up the park.

                              SCHMUCK
                    What a glorious day.
          END.

Thanks for letting us know about that. It looks as if it works well as a formatting tool. I think the plotline facility leaves a bit to be desired, though. I expect it's American, where senseless homicide is more of a spectator sport. 
I'm off to check it out,now  
thanks again

I thought this was a brilliantly executed comedy script of a quality that is sadly lacking in the genre.  
 
In my not so humble opinion I think andybyers is the coming man. The title alone was worth the entrance fee. 
 
Good stuff. Keep up the good work. 
 
Cheers

p.s. the cheque is in the post, right?
Haha!
