Now that's a question worth answering.

Sure! Thanks for not calling me a douche.

Well, pitching is easy if you do it right. Just remember to be excited in the room; talk about it like it's a movie you've already scene, and keep your eyes on the listeners. Be reactive in your telling! Keep them involved. Know the whole thing, but don't get bogged down with details, and don't go over twenty minutes.

Steve was white in the script; all three boys were just white kids in Seattle.

Michael B. Jordan did such a fantastic job in his audition that he was cast by Josh. I was annoyed, because of the "black guy dies thing," but then I had a bit of an epiphany:

Even thinking of him as "the black guy" is kind of wrong. Steve is a very important character, beyond being "black," and his role in the film is huge. The idea of him as a "Minor character that gets killed off" hugely denigrates both the character and Michael B. Jordan's stellar performance.

I dunno man. I see what you're saying, but Andrew dies too. Steve is not "the black guy who dies." Steve is the "awesome guy who dies."

I hope this clarifies it for you.

Yes. Agents are in the incoming calls business. Not the outgoing calls business. Managers work for you.

Hated it at the time, and I was a little kid. It felt convoluted, even though I didn't know that word yet.

Or you're just making stuff up to troll. I write naked from my couch. The only office I ever actually spend time in is Circle of Confusion, and everyone there I don't just handshake, I hug.

Well, it would probably be a studio, not a producer. Hm.

Probably one of the scripts I've already sold but hasn't yet been greenlit.
