I wrote a script, it landed just outside the top 2% at @austinfilmfest. Last night they sent me this incredible feedback. Such a well run festival, so encouraging in all of their communications. Aiming to submit in a feature category next year.

He's not kidding. This is one hell of an anecdote.

@JoeNaConnacht Please no, don’t say comfortably. Have you not this six nations?

That time Nigel Farage got tricking into toasting the IRA for £87 and was laughed at on Irish television. Never forget.

i came across this guy on tiktok who is the only human working for an entirely AI company and his AI coworker reported him to his AI HR department for calling his AI coworkers "clankers"

i am losing my mind

Every “innocent” pro-russian travel blogger like @sashameetsrus has now been exposed as taking Kremlin money.

Everything they say is a lie to spread propaganda from a terrorist nation.

And they did it all for just $2,000 a month

Shameless

I have watched this video a hundred times. The way they all back away from the frog like they’ve just realized he’s a superhero takes me out every time

Fox News aired a segment on crime in Ireland, specifically Dublin, on 'The Will Cain Show'.

The most brazen manipulation of statistics you're ever likely to see, lapped up by Trump-voters who don't care if something is true or not.

I'll counter this garbage with facts. /1

From years of reading and writing scripts I can confidently say if you only study one thing to get better at writing, make it the inciting incident.

Here’s why it matters so much 🧵

Irish aid to Europe post-WW2:

It is a little known fact that Ireland donated the highest % of public expenditure in aid to Europe after WW2

It remains 'unprecedented in scale and national involvement'

How did it come about? (1)

Just remembered the true story behind Before Sunrise and fell to my knees crying

@WibbleRugby Great videos, the New England way dropping right before the Ireland match last year, put the fear of God in me and you were right!

I read scripts on a pay-what-you-can basis. Look out for a tweet or send me a DM if you want to more details or to be added to my reading list!

[Luke Abbott @lukeabbott]

@AdamLavis Thanks for the brilliant set of notes Adam, I found them very insightful, going deep into the mechanics of the structure and characters, way beyond what I expected. They helped me to map a path forward with the script and make it much better.

@JEStew3 Thank you!

This reads different if you were unaware there was a film called Heat
