: how do you fellow screenwriters usually come up with ideas for you scripts? does it usually pop into your head one day? thats usually what happens with me. just pops into my head and i write it down, then expand and modify. just curious as to how everyone else does it.
I come up with the type of movie I want to write. This is usually inspired by a movie I see. Then I come up with the characters, and using their traits I come up with a sittuation that would happen in real life to those types of people.
