Yes, the RDJ does stand for Robert Downey Jr. Now I know what you're thinking. Everybody and their cousin's hamster has a blog. In this day and age it's not exactly new and exciting. But this is a sort of special blog for my friend Cally and me. We're going to be using this blog to chronicle our progress in an attempt to write a script (or two) specifically designed to involve the gorgeous and talented Robert Downey Jr. Maybe he'll be in it, maybe he'll produce it, maybe he'll direct it, that doesn't matter to us. As long as he's a part of it in some way or another. Whether they get made into movies or not remains to be seen. The first, most important step is actually finishing the script and sending it off. All we can do is put our minds together, shake them up a bit and see if anything usable is concocted. Only time will tell.

Day 52

So today I went to the screening of an Independent film and Adam Busch and Amber Benson were there. You may know them as Warren and Tara from Buffy the Vampire Slayer the TV series. I asked them if they would read a script that was sent to them and maybe help the person get it made. The answer was that they love to read scripts but the money isn't really out there. That's where I'm going with this. So, my wonderful Robert Downey Jr project could be edited and critiqued by none other than Adam Busch and Amber Benson. That's kind of epic if you ask me.

Day 48

Wow, almost three weeks since the last time I updated. That's not awesome at all. We've kind of been dealing with the same snag on the script but I think we figured it out. Basically, we couldn't agree on how to write a certain character. We both made this person far more important than they actually are. A whole character as a plot device. I hate doing it. I hate it when other people do it. "The only reason that person is there is so this can happen." It's frustrating. But, it's absolutely necessary. So, now that we know what the snag is, maybe we can move on from there.

I've also been given another script idea for a romantic comedy, and that's actually the fault of Mrs Downey herself, or Little D as she is sometimes called. It's kind of cute because she's actually shorter than Robert. And he's kind of short for a guy.

Day 28

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO THE WONDERFUL ROBERT DOWNEY JR! 45 and still as awesome as ever.


The project is going slow still. Gotta work out some kinks but it's all good. Trying to come up with a general plot outline but it's not going so well. We've got time to work things out though. :-)
