I'm posting from my Screenplay class this evening...

[proud gonzo]

The lectures aren't worth paying attention to. I'm thinking maybe next week I'll watch a movie muted on my laptop during class. I'm leaning toward "Iron Man".

[Viking Kitten]

You could liven things up by pretending to be that annoying person who asks all those stupid questions over and over. That would be super funny.

[proud gonzo]

we already have one of those...

[Viking Kitten]

Is your novel long enough to knock her out if you hit her over the head with it?

[proud gonzo]

I'm thinking of pulling a Natalie Portman and hitting her with a chair. "No more questions!"

[Sooner_Havok]

Anyone in your class have a pretty new Mac?

[proud gonzo]

nope, doesn't look like it.

[Sooner_Havok]

nope, doesn't look like it.

Damn, screwing with them is fun. If you can get your hands on an Apple remote, they work with any Mac. I used to blare music from some guys Mac every now and then. Dude was convinced he had a virus! :D :D

[proud gonzo]

that's awesome

[Sooner_Havok]

that's awesome

The funny thing was it was always on Carrie Underwood or something like that. After a while he started plugging in headphones and just letting them dangle. (he had tried muting his computer but you can control the volume with the remote.) After that I just kept bringing up front row to interrupt his note taking.

That's what he gets for having a Mac that's newer than mine

:D :D :D

It irritates me when professors talk about writers that i love, but absolutely butcher the information. Or when they take a very interesting subject and make it horribly boring. :mad:

Heh, I had a class, Literary and Cinematic Explorations of Power. He was pretty good at presenting information in a way that kept you interested.

Also didn't hurt that the only people in the class wanted to be in that class.

[proud gonzo]

yeah, i wish this professor was like that.

[pergdaddy]

I'd go with Iron Man. Good choice.

[Lott's Bandana]

...I thought you finished your screenplay?!

You should be teachin the class, Peej.

[proud gonzo]

I finished my novel last semester. This is another screenplay class. And sometimes it seems like i'm teaching the class... i've been tutoring a couple of the other students and working on their scripts with them.

[dolemitesooner]

I need a tutor

[TheUnnamedSooner]

The lectures aren't worth paying attention to. I'm thinking maybe next week I'll watch a movie muted on my laptop during class. I'm leaning toward "Iron Man".

If you're going to watch a muted movie, I recommend Mel Brook's "Silent Movie"

[C&CDean]

I need a tutor

What you need is no little thing.

[Tulsa_Fireman]

Mr. Dean, did you just call out his manhood? :D

[proud gonzo]

hmm, posting from class again. hooray.

[stoops the eternal pimp]

[proud gonzo]

[proud gonzo]

hulu.com

YWIASCORE! "The Fifth Element". Mr. Zorg will TOTALLY make this class better.

[tommieharris91]

omg, this is a writing class. we do not need to be arguing about politics.

If only you could show them the seizure robots... :rolleyes:

[Okla-homey]

ask the prof why we all can't share each other's work and ignore these pesky intellectual property laws since there are only about ten different plot formulas employed in modern movies anyway. I dare ya.

[Sooner_Havok]

SCORE! "The Fifth Element". Mr. Zorg will TOTALLY make this class better.

heh, Zorg.

[proud gonzo]

If only you could show them the seizure robots... :rolleyes:i COULD, if I could comandeer the projector...

[Boarder]

you gonna enter that 24 hour make a flim thing?

[proud gonzo]

you gonna enter that 24 hour make a flim thing?
nah. i don't think that would yield any results I'd be happy with.

[Boarder]

You're skeered. I can tell.

[proud gonzo]

I can't decide if i should work on my outline today or watch a movie during class again. Decisions, decisions....

[SoonerInKCMO]

hmm, posting from class again. hooray.

I'm posting from my Lean Six Sigma class. :)

[tommieharris91]

I'm posting from my Lean Six Sigma class. :)

That sounds like fun.:rolleyes:

[SoonerInKCMO]

Pareto Priority Index FTW!

[proud gonzo]

omg, i just LOLed in class

[tommieharris91]

Pareto Priority Index FTW!

Oooo, that sounds even more fun. I took Business and Ethics once. We talked about Pareto improvements. I mostly went there and slept and made a C in it and didn't learn a thing.

[proud gonzo]

Today we're talking about ensemble movies. So far all we've done is try to list movies that are actually ensemble films...and most films they've listed are NOT ensemble films. So...another pointless class period.

And this place is not helping entertain me this evening. I am not digging all the political threads.

[tommieharris91]

Dude, seizure bots.

[tommieharris91]

You getting hail where your at, PG?

[proud gonzo]

yeah, i ditched class an hour and a half early to make sure my car didn't get all hailed on. And I did some off-roading to avoid a flooded road and take a higher path home.

So you stole Will's Jeep? :texan:

no. I hopped the curb in my Cougar.

[GottaHavePride]

That's what SSC said.

Bad image. Really bad image.

[GottaHavePride]

Bwahaha.

Our Act II is due today... and six of twelve students are not here. Which sucks for them, because they obviously have not met the deadline. But also sucks for us, because there are fewer people for the professor to yammer at. oh noes...

heh, Wednesday already huh. ;)

[proud gonzo]

yes. My wednesday is always marked by an evening of brain-hurt and the bumping of this thread.

[Sooner_Havok]

I would either go to hulu and watch some TV or armor games and get your game on.

[proud gonzo]

20 minutes of talking about bible movies, so far...

[1890MilesToNorman]

You kids pay attention to your Indoctrination so you can become self sufficient tax paying morons like the rest of us! :P

God, how I hated school.

[proud gonzo]

yeah... i have always enjoyed school, but i'm beginning to tire of it.

[proud gonzo]

we're talking about adapting novels/stories/plays/etc. to movies. Please please please don't mention the lord of the rings. please please please don't mention harry potter.

[Sooner_Havok]

I liked school too.

Hey, don't feel too bad, for my literary and cinematic explorations of power class we had to read the Klansman and watch Birth of a Nation.

[proud gonzo]

BLAH, i've had to watch exceprts of Birth of a Nation several times in class.

sadly, that'd probably be more interesting than the lecture right now.

[proud gonzo]

oh, back to the POINT finally after 50 minutes...

[tommieharris91]

There's a point to your class?

[proud gonzo]

nope, lost it again. THOUGHT there was...but no.

[Sooner_Havok]

Is it is Kaufman?

That is where I seemed to have all those kinds pf classes
