Thought I'd provide you guys with a few links to some pretty gosh-darned good screenplays. I'll update the list periodically, as I find new stuff word reading. In the meantime, remember that you are to use these scripts FOR EDUCATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY. Which basically means don't sell them and don't rip them off. And that basically covers my ass should anyone decide they want to sue me. Like I have anything they'd even remotely want. Go ahead! Sue me! Take my toaster and my blender! Knock yourselves out! Jerks.
Uh... anyway, here are the links. I've tried to link only to quality screenplays presented (for the most part) in the correct format. This means no fan transcripts, no continuity scripts, and no links to crap like "Return to the Blue Lagoon" or "Urban Legends 12: Revenge of the Mexican Pet".
If you happen to come across a dead link, drop me a line and let me know, so I can take care of it.
