{http://www.TheMegahitMovies.com} {http://www.WritersChannel.net} WEDDING CRASHERS October 3 6PM PDT Megahit Movie Chat Richard Michaels Stefanik With an estimated budget of $40,000,000 and its latest gross of $205,540,048 (as of 28 September 2005), we can certainly call Wedding Crashers a Megahit Movie. It took many by surprise! Let's talk about why it captured such a large audience. If you want to learn how to write screenplays, read screenplays. If you want to learn how to write movies, watch movies with an analytical eye. Discussing movie structure and breaking down why the film works, and how it works, is the best way to learn how to write an effective screenplay. The Writers Channel includes a Mentor Program; Screenwriting Groups; Pitch Hollywood Executives, Agents and Movie Producers; Writing classes; Resource Center; Audio Interviews; Articles on classic movies; member contributed journals & Creative Exercises. www.WritersChannel.net {http://www.WritersChannel.net} * The Megahit Movies Book* The new 500+ page edition analyzes *The Megahit Movies*, those films which have generated more than $250 million in North American Box Office receipts. It presents principles of story construction that can be used to develop popular movies by providing an analysis of cinematic techniques. It also offers stimulating ideas that can be helpful in the creative process. The book is designed for writers, directors and producers who want to create commercially successful films. The fundamentals of dramatic structure, the human emotions, and the construction of humorous characters and situations are explained, with examples drawn from some of the most popular motion pictures Hollywood has ever produced. This book discusses the recent megahit-blockbuster movies such as SPIDER-MAN, SHREK, HARRY POTTER, BRUCE ALMIGHTY, MATRIX TRILOGY, FINDING NEMO, PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN and THE LORD OF THE RINGS. *Click here to Purchase The Megahit Movies Book* {http://www.TheMegahitMovies.com/ordermeg.htm} *RMS Story & Screenplay Consultations* *A personal consultation on your original screenplay!* Once you purchase this package, you will be permitted to submit a 120 page original screenplay.
