The Pitch Review

SETH: No, I have NOT had too much to drink! And you're an as%#^{%, James.
JAMES: What?! It's not my fault! This weird tension between us is causing problems. It might read on the screen, but I'm a professional, and I love you, bro. Don't sit so far from me.

SETH: What? Fine. But I'm tired of no one taking me seriously. I want to make a film that takes on a serious issue. Like...basketball. And politics. But funny, and still be "me." HEY!
PRODUCER2: HEY! What if we do something quasi-political?
SETH: Interesting idea...but my audience isn't into politics that much.
PRODUCER2: What are they interested in?
SETH & JAMES: [at same time] Basketball!
SETH: Like, what the f#*% with Dennis Rodman going to N Korea? That's political. And sports. What could he have been thinking?

JAMES: Holy crap. Yes. Seth, let's do it. I'm your bro. We can't just abandon our magic duo! It's...(waving hands) magical...
SETH: I don't know, man. My hearts not in it.
JAMES: Come on, dude. We have to. I love you. You love me. They love us. It's your chance to...start to be taken seriously. I mean, If Dennis Rodman can do it, WE can do it...

SETH: I guess. But you & me have felt...tense...lately...Okay. But I'll keep our classics, like explosions, new made-up classic phrasisms, and
JAMES: Tits! Don't forget to throw in tits! With talent, of course...I totally respect women.

SETH: Try to be funny, James.
JAMES: Shut up, Seth.
