Disney's Pixar's UP. Is it the greatest animated movie of all time? Or should the creators have gone with the orignal idea of a floating city on an alient planet? And why is Goofy narrating? And where IS Christopher Robin?!? A look at the script, the style, the approach to Pixar's UP is what's on hand this month. And there's nothing in the screenplay that'll surprise you -- it's perfect.

Give in to your dark side...and become...a swan? This month we dive in with Natalie Portman and the BLACK SWAN with a script read by someone who sounds a LOT like FREDDY KRUGER (but for legal reasons is NOT Freddy Kruger). The script is interesting, but this month we're looking at MOTIFS! Come along for the ride of The First Ten Pages and hang on tight...these ballerinas be crazy!

It's an ILLEGAL First Ten Pages THREEWAY! A wild Book-Script-Movie party! With Elle Woods coming back to streaming, it seemed like a great time for LEGALLY BLONDE, a script read, a book read, and a movie watch! Was Elle Woods a smarter-than-she-looks genius in every iteration?! The answer will surprise you! (It's no. The answer's no.) Come for the world of Legally Blonde and Elle Woods, stay for my amazing voice work of the all-female cast of the movie! Then judge me for it!!

The feature script for SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE breakout characters THE BLUES BROTHERS, Dan Aykroyd and John Belushi, was one of the funniest, bluesiest, car-crashiest movies ever! Screenplay by Aykroyd and directed by John Landis, who also honed the SNL performer's script down to a manageable size (the original screenplay was more than 300 pages long!), the big question remains: Is The Blues Brothers script any good? Come on in and find out. SPECIAL GUEST: Yoda. The First Ten Pages podcast. Welcome.

A film of epic proportions, THE SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION deserves the accolades and respect it gets, which is why, if you've ever wondered what Miss Piggy sounds like in the throes of passion, this month's script read is for you! Also, SHAWSHANK's first draft script is NOT what you'd expect....

Is the script for The Muppet Movie as manic, insane and sophisticated as the Muppets themselves? The answer is shocking! (It's no.) The first 10 pages for the 1979 original Muppet movie screenplay is strictly for kiddies. How can it be? And why is Gonzo hopping mad? Hear him tell you...along with Kermit, Animal, Miss Piggy, & Beaker.* TO SKIP the script read, go to: 16:50. This episode SOUNDS BEST with earphones. The First Ten Pages podcast. Welcome.
