Have a good Christmas everybody.

The forum's a bit quiet for my liking so I don't know how many people will get seeing this, but come back later on, I've got a special present under the tree from a relative, that I think you'll all like! More info soon.

You've got me interested

Right, so I find out this yoke is for me:

But, wait a second... that's queer...

Holy shit Batman! :eek: :eek: :eek:

Episode 2x03 - Orientation - ***US*** SPOILERS

One or two pages are missing, but it's no big deal.

Tee hee hee, good ol' Hurley

A friend of a friend had lunch with Henry Ian Cusick (Desmond), over in England. He gave him his actual script for this episode, which was then photocopied and handed over to me. Ok, so it may not be the original, but I'm sure you'll agree it's still pretty fucking cool.
Merry Christmas to me!

over nighting it in stanstead and reading your post.

I've seen other scripts on line and they dont seem to match up. The language also doesnt seem to be inline with what i'd expect from lost.

I reckon its a fake but wouldnt mind being proved wrong

Definitely real - the script style is spot-on, as is its use of plot beats and layout. It's more likely some of those online are not real. The one qz posted is definitely a copy of an actual shooting script. Pink revision means it's either the third or tenth revision (probably third). Nice present, though. Maybe you might PDF it for us all someday, if we're really good?!

Maybe you could tell me how to do such a thing... :v:

You'd need a scanner for this, one with OCR (Optical Character Recognition) which would convert the material from the script into a Word file, keeping the margins and formatting in the same places. (If you have a paper feed scanner, that'd be quick enough, otherwise, each page would have to be inserted manually.) You'd then convert the Word file to a PDF using some of the freeware programs designed for that. I'm half-wondering if 'Ian Cusick' across the middle might throw an OCR scanner off, in which case none of it might work properly anyway!

But that's a lot of trouble - unless someone knows another way to scan a large document, in picture form over OCR. (I know fancier scanners can paper feed an entire document and scan direct to PDF, but I'm not sure how accurate they are.)
