The Dark Knight Rises has yet to open, and since I’ve been analyzing Christopher Nolan’s films for a larger project, especially the first two chapters in his Batman trilogy, Batman Begins and The Dark Knight, I can&#8217;t help but speculate about The Dark Knight Rises beat sheet. 
I&#8217;ve seen a lot of predictions and theories [...]]]></description>

In anticipation of The Dark Knight Rises opening in theaters on July 20, I’ve been analyzing Christopher Nolan’s films, especially the first two chapters in his Batman trilogy, Batman Begins and The Dark Knight. I&#8217;ve found myself buried so deep into Nolan&#8217;s complex story structures that it&#8217;s been impossible for me to watch the trailers [...]]]></description>

Anyone who knows me knows I&#8217;m a huge, huge, huge fan of Mad Men. After each episode, I comb the web for any and all Mad Men-related material, and since there&#8217;s many other nutjobs out there who are also mad for Mad Men, the blogosphere never disappoints.
But most high-profile sites only feature one still photo [...]]]></description>

I&#8217;m almost done reading The Hunger Games trilogy of books on my trusty Kindle and I&#8217;m seeing the movie in a few hours (as it unleashes a Quarter Quell on the box-office in its opening weekend), so until I can offer an analysis of the screenplay or movie, I thought I&#8217;d share one of my [...]]]></description>

I came across this TED talk by writer/director Andrew Stanton, whose credits include Toy Story 1-3, Finding Nemo, Wall-E and the upcoming John Carter. He&#8217;s got some really interesting things to say about the emotional connection between screenwriter (storyteller) and audience (listener), touching on WHY we love a great story, what we expect and how [...]]]></description>

A few months back, I was preparing a proposal that listed the box-office performance of several films, including The King&#8217;s Speech. I knew that the film did quite well, but I was shocked to learn that it grossed a whopping $440 million worldwide! To put that into perspective, this quiet, character-driven period drama with stuffy [...]]]></description>

Seven, written by Andrew Kevin Walker and directed by David Fincher, is one of the great thrillers of the 1990s, a decade with several exceptional thrillers. Walker&#8217;s screenplay for Seven shot him to the Script Doctor A-list, establishing him as a hot writer of dark material on spec, like 1999&#8217;s 8mm, as [...]]]></description>
