Oh man! So I submitted a comedy pitch to this contest thing, and I won, and now I'm going to work with freaking Lionsgate to write the short film script that will be produced, and mayyyybe if it works out, it will be made into a feature! HOLY BALLS.

That is great! I used to submit funny stuff that made me laugh but nobody else all the time to various shows etc. Then I gave up because I'm mildly funny, strongly retarded. Not the other way around like I thought.

You must of done something pretty impressive.

Congratulations, that's amazing! Haha, Mrs. Doubtfire. I hate the movie which makes it an even funnier idea. I would pay money to see that movie. Given the economy, I'm impressed that Lions Gates is doing this sort of thing. (y)

Does that say that you were selected out 1400 people? Am I reading that right?

Bahaha the Mrs. Doubtfire thing is like a total random idea I was probably going to change.

The whole thing was put together so last minute that I wish I had written funnier pages, etc., but whatever!! I'm just excited...and in shock. Yeah like 1400 people submitted. w. t. f.? Whatever I'm probably going to get hit by a bus tomorrow anyway.

but thanks for the support guys. I'm not going to think it's real for a while

That name is like totally not Dutch.

You need a dutch and Italian things advisor in your big time hollywood production. I'm available.

Great stuff though, congratulations :)

Yeah, Pear-son (Persson) is Swedish.
Just call the guy De Vries or Van Dijk. :p

Also I think you should get Simon Pegg and Nick Frost to play the leads.

Hey that's so cool, congrats!(y)

I totally promise that if it is made into a film and it's all popular and stuff that I will definitely go buy a pirate DVD copy from the bloke on the bicycle who hangs at the corner outside my apartment complex.

Congrats Barb, you are definitely working hard on your dream. Your kind of talent and effort can't be denied.

Epic win.

Yes! Congrats, yo. The synopsis and sample scene are dynamite. I'm not surprised you won. I love the premise. Being an ex Project Manager I love the riff on Project Managers.

Make sure you register with the WGA and copywrite it. If the script isn't done, finish it and then write something new. Good luck, I hope it gets turned into a feature. Hollywood needs more comedies that are inventive and actually funny.

Thanks for all the kinds words, dudes. I'm still in shock...I have yet to really meet with anybody about it so I still feel like it's not real.

I'm pretty fucking stoked though. Maybe Mr. Films can direct and we'll have a BBMB film on our hands.
