[quote]The industry doesn’t need another Tarantino wannabe, they need an “IHOP311.” Plain and simple.
Do you know how many producers, and literary agents get shown scripts with Tarantino-like dialogue? He’s the most imitated man in Hollywood. None of the scripts are ever going to sell when a) They can just get the real stuff from the real man himself, while he’s still alive and kicking, and b) They’re not original.
Sorry if I came across harsh.[/quote]
[color=Orange]Everything you said is 100% true! And I don’t think you sounded harsh. You sounded realistic and to the point, which many of us trying to break into the industry needs to expect (and have a thick skin about it). I think the way you phrased your advice was actually very helpful without being malicious (which sometimes happens when dealing with industry folks).
I think IHOP311 will appreciate it. At least, I do.
