[ExI] We Need a Movie, People!! Dammit!

[John Grigg]

Why do any of us have to write an original screenplay if we really don't feel up to it?  There are already so many great science fiction stories which I bet could be adapted to this cause (with permission of course).  Also remember that *DAMIEN BRODERICK* and *CHARLES STROSS* are among us, and so we have just the people we need to help get the ball rolling. 
   
  Best wishes,
   
  John Grigg : )

You're correct, it will suck. And I'm too slow a writer, I've tried. 
You are essentially stuck until a writer comes along.
