: Thank you everyone for your advise. I really enjoyed reading your comments and will take them into consideration.
Dzjennes: The movie is about a guy who needs to get $200 to buy a Fort Max (Transformer). He has all these close encounters with sex with fat chicks (male aution),death( drug dealers),and his best friend is a huge pot head. The advice the friend always gives is:"How about smoking some weed?" But the main guy finally gets the TF when his ex girlfriend buys it for him. It is really funny the parts we do have written down(yes, I do help him the most I can).
Red Beard: Thank you for the advice. I hope we can get it wrote down and find someone too...lol. But now adays, it seems hard to find any indie movies out there that really made it big..ok, a few but not alot.

Thank you all again.

Well your husband is kind of ahead of the game. A supporting wife,

: advice, (worst vice is advice), he needs to sit down and just write the
: script. No one but Kevin Smith can write a KS story, like Coppola, like
: Kurosawa, you can aspire to, or be inspired by, but he needs to make
: his film. A good goal to have when writing a script is to write a film
: you would like to watch. He can only help himself. His inner voice, his
: gut instinct, his fearlessness will determine if he has it or not. It's

: Everyone can be the one in their mind if they only freed themselves. I
: would love to say to you someone will come along, finance his film,
: help write his script, help him direct, but the reality is, credits-
: mortgage, he will direct and write, b/c honestly that is what it takes.
: Any less and filmmaking would lose something. Wish someone

: just my opinion

: : Hi. My husband has a great idea for a movie. He has the ideas, the
: concept, everything but a script. He has plans for the actors and
: cameo spots too. He thought of everything but he has no idea where
: to start. It is a really good concept and I am really proud of him for
: this. He wants it to be a Kevin Smith type movie. Real funny, real
: edgy, really good. Something Mr. Smith could be proud to say he was
: a great influence for. If anyone has any tips on where he can get
: some help, please let me know. I would greatly appreciate it. Thank
: you for taking the time to read this.
