Scripts?

[Joker'sHenchman]

Does anyone on this board collect/read unproduced scripts or scripts of films in pre-production? I'd be interested in reading some scripts for educational purposes.

Script Shadow doesn't share the scripts and IMSDB only has older films...

IMSDB sometimes has the script before the movie comes out, I don't know how often that happens though.

I used to go to a site, I believe it was called Simply Scripts, to read some unproduced scripts. There was a lot of sharing in the message board area. Might be worth checking out, if you're interested.

The forum at donedealpro.com was a pretty good place before the Fox lawsuit against one of their best sources. Lurk around there and you might still be able to get some stuff through PM. tracking-board.com is pretty good too, but there's a subscription fee of $60 per year. If it's truly for education purposes and you're wanting to get into the business, it's worth the fee.

Here are two scripts that never got made:

Christopher Nolan's THE KEYS TO THE STREET:

The Wachowski Brothers' CARNIVORE:

Both are fantastic, in my opinion. I can't for the life of me understand why they didn't get made ASAP. Studios should've been drooling.
