How to approach entertainment in the new year?

I see new things happening with film, TV, books, and stories in 2025. The basic idea of storytelling will probably remain the same—the act structures—but without an agenda-driven orientation. However, I foresee many industry rules being broken to achieve success. Creativity in how things are done will be of major importance in 2025.

An Old Idea

An Old Idea


I woke up this morning thinking whether I should piece together a new story or film idea, or sort through my old pile of scripts collecting dust. I found a short film script I wrote a few years ago. The script had a fun title, in a genre not often used anymore. The genre fits perfectly with 1980s comedy films like *Revenge of the Nerds*, *Porky’s*, *Joystick*, *Spring Break*, *Hot Dog*, and *Fast Times at Ridgemont High*. I would love to work on the project—I have a feature film treatment for it, but only wrote the script as a short for several reasons. It’s good that a cup of coffee and a script can help bring back good times.


If you like that genre of film or are looking for a script to shoot in that genre, contact me.
