i can't wiat to see this film, it sounds fantastic....i just hate it that 5 five years ago i thought it would be so great to shoot a film without cutting into takes, and now there would be nothing special about it- o well.

i assume you're talking about russian ark. yeah, i always have ideas that i want to happen and then somebody does it before i do. like when i was little and i wrote a book called private parts where i had illustrations of boobies in it and then howard stern wrote his book called private parts about the same thing! I SHOULD SUE!
It's worse when it's a shitty movie that uses your idea... and you're like "damn, I guess that wasn't such a good idea after all"

rk, i thought i was the only one. i was so embarassed by what a shitty movie the idea turned into that i won't even give the title of the movie that had the same idea as mine. it's just that bad. it was made in 1999, though
happens too many times to me, very ridiculous movies

Timecode, but I'm attuned enough to popular opinion to have it brought to mind when I hear "shitty movie... 1999."
yeah, twice this has happened to me. i was just about to start a short i wrote about three friends walking through the woods experiencing different things while learning more about themselves, when lo and behold, gus van sants 'gerry' came out. then i remembered 'stand by me' also came out a while ago so i scrapped the whole thing.
i'd also thought of split screen conversation of two faces facing you for a while and then i saw 'rules of attraction' and said fuck. oh well
