They might “drift around” or “loiter” or “congregate."

I ultimately hosted 9 scripts on #Coverfly over the last 4 years. Had 4 scripts in the Top 5%. 3 more in the Top 10%. 1 Red List. Liked being able to search for screenwriters and see what they’d hosted. Didn’t use Coverfly X much, but like the concept. Thanks for all you did, @coverfly.bsky.social

Best feeling in the world.

Some of my early favorites were heist movies.

The Sting
Butch Cassidy
Fun with Dick and Jane
Oceans Eleven (rat pack)

I’m a sucker for time travel movies. Spies and heists, too.

🤞🤞🤞

Pretty sure I’ve written more drafts of the synopsis of this script than of the script itself. 🤦

I shit you not. Here is the actual video from Wichita Schools that we showed at my high school in Atlanta. youtu.be/iv9jiojOfOM?...

Active Shooter. (2 title changes since)

Inspired by decades of delivering active shooter trainings to my HS classrooms. Especially after we started telling students they must rush the shooter en masse, using books or whatever to attack the AR-15 wielding killer.

Nice! Congrats!

Great tag line.

So good.

Congratulations! 🎉

I cannot express how impactful it was to see this movie when I was 11. Mind blowing. Haven’t seen it since I became a screenwriter. Time for a rewatch!

My cat was *born* sick of this bs.

From my first screenplay. Character intros for the anti-hero’s parents.

I’d love to read it!

I love how you’re THE Brad M. Johnson. Like THE Ohio State. You should insist people introduce you that way.

Congratulations!

Usually 1 and 2. Then 3 after a break/notes.

Great to see a bunch of screenwriter friends placing in PAGE. Congrats and good luck in the next round, everyone! #scriptsky #PAGEAwards
