Okay Recently I finished reading an Epic, which I think would make a GREAT War Movie Script. It has everything that a Good Movie has and althrough a Movie about this exact story was released in 1978 it was a Foreign Film and after some brief overlooking of it, it looks like it wasnt exactly a hit. Im wondering if anyone has any good references to screenwriting website? I have started on a screenplay that followed a format I was given but its basically like writing a book just more descriptive.

Thanks.

You can try to look at some other screenplays, you can find some of Raimi's on the internet (like Army of Darkness), but that contains alot of camera angles, which you should probably keep out unless you are directing (but leaving in some is ok). You can also find a screenplay by Stephen King in his collection of short stories called "Nightmares and Dreamscapes" which you can find at any library. Honestly, I have seen screenplays written a ton of different ways, but I think the best way I have seen them is acually in play format, just describing the scene, the action, and the dialouge. It's really up to you. For the advise I can give, try to keep your characters a little vauge (as for physical appearance) so that they can be openly cast, instead of having to find a ton of people who look a certain way. Best of Luck,

I recommend reading as many screenplays as you can get your hands on. Try Drew's Script-O-Rama, http://www.script-o-rama.com. He's got everything....
