His Beat Sheets and movie categories gave me a new look on movies from a technical standpoint. Who woulda thunk that the Godfather and One flew over the cuckoos nest are practically the same movie? Jaws=Alien=Fatal Attraction? RIP Blake Snyder. I Re-read Save the Cat, and just received Save the cat goes to the theaters. Once I'm done reading the book, I'll order Save the cat strikes back!
It's rare to find a screenwriter that's gone through all the hard knocks and comes out of it still a postive, funny, and generous person. God broke the mold when he made Blake.
@CrusadertheCat Uh... Don't you mean best 3 Books ever!!! If you only encountered 1 you better look again.
Blake was the best. His good humor and bright way of encouraging us while telling us what we don't exactly want to hear and drawing a laugh out of us to ease the tension of that, made him by far the best in making writers see him as a best friend on our side.
Here's someone who never met me or read my work saying You are better than this! I Know You Can! Yet every word felt sincere
I took the Beat Sheet Workshop in LA last year. FABULOUS! If only Blake would come to my house every morning and make me write, I'm sure I'd have a great script based on the start I got in the workshop.
RIP fantastic guy =(
