No longer working on an action movie.

I was actually starting on the action movie, but then I watched the Island.
And my movie's plot was very similar to the one in the Island directed by Michael Bay. But my story had nothing to do with clones, but rather an idea.
And guess what? I actually saw Ewan McGregor as my main man in my movie as well.
And then people would chase after him trying to prevent him from getting the secret out.
Wow. And guess what I also found out? The Island's script was believed to be a copy of some other person's screenplay called The Experiment.

Well, this was quite the eye opener. I've got to make sure my screenplays don't seem like they are copying somebody else's, even though I didn't even know I was subconsciously doing so!

So I'm giving that screenplay a break for awhile and I am starting on a very prized screenplay about a young teenage boy trying to find his place in the world. Typical, typical, but amazing.
