Voting

Just add a + next to the lines you want in the finished product, and a - next to the ones you want. For lines that have no competition (that is, there are no other riffs they'd step on), as long as they have fewer minuses than positives, they'll get included. For competing lines, most positive score wins. One capper, one vote per line. (You can vote for each line written for a given timestamp.)

If you have strong feelings on lines without competition, in case the timing of the final production forces us to remove lines and so we can remove clunkers.

Voting closes December Noon eastern, Sunday, December 17, 2006.

The Characters

Blasting Cap Man / BCM

Striped Shirt Kid / SSK - the cautious one

Pink Shirt Kid / PSK - the reckless one

Even Dopier Kid - the tall one without many lines

Instructions

  • Check back often to see what suggestions/alterations your riffs have recieved here or on the discussion tab.
  • Use {} to denote lines and actions that are in the actual film.
  • Do your best with including timestamps of the lines from the film and/or where your riff should be placed.
  • Use [] to denote stage directions.
  • Be wary of lines that need to go over dialogue in the film. Use [TALKOVER] to identify it.
  • Don't sweat identifying references, unless you need them to help describe how a line should be read or a tune to sing it with.
  • Use "quotes" and [stage directions] when lines should be delivered in character, e.g. [a la Comic Shop Guy] "Worst Riffing. Ever."
  • Feel free to just help transcribe the movie's dialogue or note spots that are ripe for riffing.
