Is it easier to write a screenplay than a Novel or, are they two different skills?

>> No.17215715

A script is like one quarter of the way to a novel. Usually everything outside of the dialogue is shit and the dialogue itself is often shit also.

All scriptwriters should be shot. We need image based cinema not word based cinema.

You don't need a script to make a film retard. Even the best American director considered script as merely a blueprint and tore pages from it when behind schedule.

yes the script is a blueprint, but you still need it to begin production you actual fucking retard. you don't start building a house without a blueprint you faggot.

NO ONE is going to sign up to work on a film based on just storyboards. the script, even if it's just simple scene descriptions, exists so that all the people working on the film, from producer to production designer, will have an idea of what the film will look like. kys

how do you think they developed the schedule in the first place? THEY BASED IT OFF THE SCENES IN THE SCRIPT YOU RETARDED NIGGER

I never said anything about storyboard. Yes, script is needed to gather finances and that is the wrong approach. Stupid one.
Jacques Rivette, Terrence Malick among others refute your premise.

>> No.17215904

>>17215885
I know. I'm just pointing out that even big Hollywood director knows that use of a script - merely a blueprint. We can push this further like other directors have done and work without it entirely. The financing system is too rigid to allow it with bigger budgets but plenty of people managed to do it and it's a better approach.

No, assuming cinema is a childish hobby means you are a pseud or a midwit.

>> No.17215935

>>17215917
I know. It was also his worst film in some time and the script was probably thrown out with Malick asking for improvs and making stuff up as he went along. Doesn't refute the premise. There are other ways to show what you want to make than writing script.

Have you ever observed a living being doing anything other than fighting for survival, mating, nurturing, or resting? No other living entity waste their precious time with meaningless activities. Yet, all you do is waste your time with meaningless activities. Perhaps you are the bright one, doing the opposite of what nature intended.

i've worked on films too, what is your point? you need a script, even if it is just simple descriptions of scenes, to begin planning and production. You're an idiot.
