I usually just ignore them and try to enjoy it though. Saber - I see the differences too, from script to script. I usually just ignore them and try to enjoy it though.

Once I've seen it tomorrow night I'll let you know what I think... heck, I'm even considering abridging it myself... Quantum Of Solace is due a go when it comes out too.

I'm glad I did not see this. I cannot wait for your abridged script for Order of the Phoenix. Mr. Hilton, you are doing God's work by wathching this film and alerting others of its crappiness.

I was actually laughing out loud like a jack-ass in a library. And I agree about the mis-use of the DeNiro and Pacino team up. Youd think Scorssese would step in and win another best picture with them, but no, they wanted to actually ship the movie in a premade bargain bin.

When I was getting ready to take my GRE I took a class in order to practice. Most of the people were struggling on the math and I thought that section was a breeze. The logic I wasn't quite as good at, but still respectable. However the English section. Yikes! They gave a brief write up, usually two or three paragraphs worth, and then a multiple guess selection that were each a short paragraph. The thing was to match which of those four statements best went along with the original.I could barely do 50%! The trick was analyzing the 'tone' of each message. The words giving specific emphasis on different points and matching those tones (emphasis) to the original. I realized I was pretty much tone deaf! I understood the meaning of the words, but the entire concept of 'degree of stress in a given context' was practically lost on me.That's probably the same here. I suspect you have the ability, talent, to identify that tonality whereas it really doesn't stand out to me.Most people, I've discovered, really do have the ability to pick out the tone of language and not so much the mathematical concepts. A fewer number, such as me, understand the math but not so much the language. Left brain, right brain kind of stuff :) Could be, Sabre!

Maybe I'm just a better critical reader than you people. :-PBut hey, I'm up for a contest. Bring it on! As long as Rod doesn't try to throw it by masking his style to trick us... Conversely, the other authors could not be told they were doing it for a conest lest they try their best to sound like Rod. You get the point.

Maybe you can tell ... and maybe it's 20-20 hindsight ;) Since it's after the fact, you claiming you could tell has a degree of uncertainty to it (i.e. your story is suspect, son!)I'd still like to see Rod do a contest! Have him put out three scripts at the same time along with a poll (an open poll showing your vote once you made a vote). After a week show the results and see who can accurately tell the styles well enough to figure out the Hilton Original. At the very least it would be FUN! :D Hey Sabre-Scorpion!
