TEAM AMERICA WORLD POLICE

Lisa and I walked out. There was no one to root for, and the movie couldn't seem to make up its mind whether it was a parody of rootin'-tootin' red-blooded American action movies, or a red blooded American action movie.

We're supposed to root for these guys who are blowing up most of Paris in the intro. Whereas in South Park: Bigger, Better and Uncut, we were rooting for the kids to stop a war.

Even in a parody we have to sympathize with someone!

Yo Crafty...I got you on the best sellers list at Howard University. I read it, gave it to my professor and now it's required reading for the MFAer's screenwriting classes. Give me a 'shout out' cause I've got some nice scripts..."The Beauty Queen"(Award winner), "Vampire Forever", "Skin"-the real Jungle Fever, "Deadline" and "Stone Bridge." Check 'em out at www.chocolatecityfilms.com for my log lines...They're great!
