Both of which I really liked.<br /><br />I was a bit suprised at the negative reviews. I was in it to have fun, as were the writers, and some people were down right repulsed at the script.<br /><br />I guess it takes all kinds.<br /><br />-JimJim Endecotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16484816992028286627noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25895692.post-83167865888401960482009-05-01T15:34:00.000-07:002009-05-01T15:34:00.000-07:00Hey Emily,

I think what we have here is a failure to communicate. :) Rarely do scripts survive a 4am read from me. This one did though and that says a lot!Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13868933997157762707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25895692.post-30708805950141096052009-05-01T12:58:00.000-07:002009-05-01T12:58:00.000-07:00I actually have a diatribe coming up about "Shane ...I actually have a diatribe coming up about "Shane Blackisms" but otherwise yeah.<br /><br />I didn't think this script was perfect, obviously, but I'm surprised by how many people outright hated it.Emily Blakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02163221455899041141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25895692.post-55761404182628262672009-05-01T12:55:00.000-07:002009-05-01T12:55:00.000-07:00Don't think I enjoyed it quite as much as you Emil...Don't think I enjoyed it quite as much as you Emily but Medieval was an incredibly fun read.<br /><br />The writers definitely wear their love of action movies on their sleeve, hence the plethora of references.<br /><br />Stylistically I didn't like all the Shane Black-isms (they should leave that to Shane Black) or the too modern dialogue.<br /><br />But I hope it gets made cause there seems to be a real lack of genuine kick-ass movies being made these days.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25895692.post-2885194830897536012009-05-01T12:19:00.000-07:002009-05-01T12:19:00.000-07:00Hey Emily
