Marvel Test Script #1 (1993)

Page 1

Near the front door of their apartment, Mary Jane places a shopping list into her small shoulder bag.  From behind, Peter hugs Mary Jane.  Mary Jane giggles.

Caption:  "One Saturday afternoon..."

Peter:  "Let's stay home."

Peter begins to muzzle into Mary Jane's neck as she playfully slips from his grasp.

Mary Jane:  "Peter, it won't work. There's nothing to eat in the house."

Peter catches her again, spinning her around to face him. He kisses her deeply; Mary Jane responds.

Peter:  "I've got all I need right here."

Mary Jane:  "Peter..."

With one more quick peck, Peter opens the door for his wife.  Mary Jane, placing her bag on her shoulder, turns to go.

Peter:  "All right, all right.  But once we get back your all mine."

Down on the NYC street, Peter places his arm across Mary Jane's shoulders.  Mary Jane encircles his waist with one of her slender arms.  They look to be the perfect couple in love.

Mary Jane:  "You know, we should have Liz and Norm up for dinner."

Peter:  "I know, I know.  I just feel funny being around Liz with     Harry in jail."

Mary Jane:  "You're not responsible for his action.  Just because         your..."

Mary Jane pauses.  She looks around at all the different people on the street, in the cars, passing by.  Peter gazes her;  Mary Jane knows that he knows what she means.

Mary Jane:  "Just because you chose one course, doesn't mean you set Harry on his."

Peter:  "I know."

Suddenly, Peter's spider sense goes off.  Mary Jane notices Peter tensing up.  In the building they are passing, a child's plastic football comes flying out the first story window.

Peter quickly catches the ball before it hits them.  A young lad appears in the window.

Boy:  "Sorry, mister.  Can I have my ball?"

Peter tosses the ball back to the youngster.

Peter:  "Be careful."

But the spider sense still goes off.  Mary Jane is aware that Peter senses something, and the two of them begin looking around for another threat.  Two blocks away, an explosion erupts smoke into the sky.  Mary Jane clings to Peter as Super Skrull Flies over their heads.  Peter turns to Mary Jane as she still holds on to him.

Peter:  "Honey..."

Mary Jane:  "Go on.  Please be careful."

Peter rushes back to their apartment.

Soon, Spiderman swings over NYC after the Super Skrull.

Page 4

Spiderman spots the Super Skrull floating above the roof tops.  He appears to be following a van down on the streets below.  The van moves recklessly through the streets.

Spiderman:  (thinking)`I wonder what he wants...'

Super Skrull stretches back with his orange-rock, Thing hand to hit

Spiderman closely trailing him.  Using his webbing, Spiderman whisks out of harm's way.

Super Skrull:  "I have no time for you today."

Spiderman:  "I didn't know you could tell time."

Spiderman swings in to kick Super Skrull in the face.  Super Skrull retaliates by forming an invisible wrecking ball;  Spiderman flies across the roof tops from the blow.

Super Skrull:  "Leave me alone, little man."

Spiderman, lying on tarmac of an apartment building, recovers.  Quickly, he shoots his webbing around Super Skrull's ankle and prepares for a ride.  Super Skrull looks back to find Spiderman in tow.  Without a second thought, he "flames on" his arm.  Sending his flame out, he cuts the webbing.  Spiderman recovers by shooting his webbing onto a nearby highrise, swinging right along with the Skrull.

Spiderman:  (thinking) `Well, if I can't stop you, maybe I should stop your prey.'

Stranger and Stranger

Title: Stranger and Stranger Word: set Challenger: lj user. budgie_uk Length: 200 words exactly      "Hello."  His chiseled, good looks marked him as a leading man.  As he extended his hand, he made sure to look at her eyes.  "I'm Mark."      "Nancy." She giggled when she shook his hand.  His bathrobe parted below the loosely tied sash.  Her eyes widened.  She tucked her auburn hair behind her ear as she cleared her throat.  "You must be my partner."      "Yeah.  Thanks for filling in at the last minute.  Jennifer's really sick."  Mark stopped twisting the script in his hand and passed her a copy.  When she took it, he studied her ample hips, waspish waist, nice rack and long neck.  "But I guess that's why there are  understudies."      "They really don't have understudies for adult films usually."  Nancy paged through the script as she pretended not to wish ...

A Fan's Encounter (2002)

  Teaser:  What would you do to meet your favorite star and what would you give?  Find out how one such encounter affected the fan.      Her painting took my breath away.  Leaning against a chair in our hotel room, I couldn’t stop myself from moving closer and crouching before it;  the scene drew me right in.  The tall pine trees of a northern forest filtered the strong sunlight into dramatic streaks.  The lush foliage covered most of the woodland floor, with a small path wandering its way into the horizon.  Along the trail, ever so small and off-center, stood a lad looking up at the beam of light streaking down on top of him.  For the simplicity of the composition, the message was quietly dramatic:  spotlight.        I was overwhelmed by her labor.  But the artist, Alice, was less sure.      “I hope he doesn’t just throw this in a closet or something,” her voice offered, not co...

Second Draft: Inside Out (2008)

 “Good evening, Mr. Bowker,” Mrs. Richardson coos with her shaky, elderly voice.  The New Orleans’ night air is always so thick with magnolias and Cajun spices.  The sweet, piquant aroma touches deep within, like a lover.  Who could stay in on such a lovely night? “Good evening, Mrs. Richardson.”  Her hand tastes of Ivory soap and Aspricreme.  She bows and lowers her eyes as a proper lady should.  Despite her age, Mrs. Richardson remembers how society behaves.  The street light, painting my neighborhood into a sepia picture, does her justice. Her granddaughter, on the other hand, is the painted jezebel.  She rolls eyes and snaps her gum like a common harlot.  I stare with a belly-full of brimstone.  Her lady business smells of all the men she’s begged.  I could fix that. “Nice evening.  Are you on your way home?” “Yes.  Brittani was kind enough to escort me for some ice cream.”  With her age-spotted hands, Mrs. R...
