The first entry into ScriptNews is a review of the screenplay to "Knowing," penned by Richard Kelly (responsible for the cult favorite "Donnie Darko"). Reviewed by the influential script reviewer Darwin Mayflower at Corona's Coming Attractions, he has some issues with the screenplay, calling it "a paranoid, overstuffed, hysterical, frustrating, redo patchwork of a script from a guy who has a really bright future. It could have been a great mystery-suspense film, like "Close Encounters of the Third Kind" (something of an inspiration), but its promise is completely erased when you find out the whole thing was just your own curiosity reflected back at you." Doesn't sound good for "Knowing."

This has been an idea of mine for awhile now: Creating a news hub to aggregate news and alert people to script reviews posted on online film sites like Corona's Coming Attractions, FilmJerk.com, IGN FilmForce, TNMC and AICN. Bookmark this page and come back often to see where the latest script reviews have hit!
