In Los Angeles, same is good, different is bad, and almost no one smokes cigarettes.

popcorn's post remains right on the money
Scrivener has exactly the right amount of screenplay functionality
In Los Angeles, same is good, different is bad, and almost no one smokes cigarettes.
That is, of course, because the air is so imbued with toxins that the necessity of smoking a cigarette effectively drops to zero.

Don't let the format Nazis stop you actually writing...

The only thing I've felt the lack of yet is a kind of 'reverse edit Scrivenings'. I cut and pasted a Word script into Scriv, and it would be nice to be able to be able to say 'turn each scene into a section' (based on sluglines). But that's not really much of an inconvenience.

Yep, I agree completely.

Demonstrating yet again that LA is wrong on so many levels.

* Scrivener Forum: If you think the script binding stuff is limiting, let me introduce you to Syd Field, Robert McKee, the Save The Cat guy, and the producers who think those fellows have the secret formula -- they are legion.

From what I've seen these guys are a little industry that's creepy and exploitive as fuck. It's all fine and good if you're writing TV adventure movies for Turkish 12-year-olds. But that bastardized, pseudo Joseph Campbell, write by the numbers crap is the opposite of writing creatively - and soooo eighties.
Sad.
