'Twilight Saga: New Moon' script found in trash...and returned

joequinn501 · 05-13-2009, 04:15 AM

What would you have done? Casey Ray, a beauty salon owner, found the scripts for two Robert Pattinson films -- The Twilight Saga: New Moon and the romantic drama Memoirs, another Summit Entertainment production expected to film this summer -- in a trash bin in St. Louis. (No one's said how they ended up there. They were found outside a hotel housing actors working on the George Clooney movie Up in the Air. That cast includes Anna Kendrick, who plays Bella's friend Jessica in the Twilight films, but her rep has insisted that the actress would not be so careless.) Though Ray considered leaking the scripts to the tabloid press, her lawyer tells the Associated Press that she didn't really want money. So she returned them to the studio and was offered tickets to the movies' premieres. She'll also receive the scripts back after the films have hit theaters.
How would you have handled the find? Since I can't even sit in someone else's seat at a concert without getting nervous that I'll be found out, I'm confident that I would have done the right thing as well and returned them -- after I read them, of course. And took them to my editor.

I know, its crazy, right?
Well, we don't know who binned the script. If I was the one in charge, whoever did it should be very afraid.
That said, I think that woman is really lucky. Personally, I would have read the whole thing at least twice, then phone my mum to tell her. I'm quite sure I would have returned the script without having contacted the press.
Not because I would be expecting a 'prize' or anything, just because its the right thing to do.

I'm also thankful she hasn't leaked any info. I already know what's gonna happen. But its better to see the film without that particular information.

i would read it of course - then return it.

GuessGirl · 05-17-2009, 10:05 PM

I would have read the script and turned it in.

It's pretty awesome that she gets to go to the premier and get the script back. I would want it signed from the whole cast

thats awesome. i wish i found it in the trash lol

ptownmel · 06-10-2009, 12:04 PM

Wow! I would have read it... then returned it... and then given my input on how it could be better...

As fans we really do have a special perspective that others just can't replicate... for example... the fan made trailer for New Moon, way improved from the original!

If i had found it i would have returned it but... i would have read the first few pages first

i mean i cant let an opportunity like that slip away from me. And when i return it i would have also tell them what they should changed a little.

katrock · 06-10-2009, 01:07 PM

my conscience unfortunately wouldn't allow me to read it. *sigh*. I'd return it w/o even opening it. gotta keep up the good karma.

slcollins619 · 06-10-2009, 01:54 PM

I would have returned it too, but I know I wouldnt be able to resist reading it. I would have to have shown it to someone just so I would be believed, lol. I think its awfully nice of them to offer to give it to her once their done. Tickets are nice too. I guess they realized what kind of mess they missed out on. Could have been a lot worse for them. How could anyone be so careless???

at your last comment "After I read them, of course. And took them to my editor."

I would have read it, copied it, returned it, then I would show all my friends.

Stacizzle · 06-10-2009, 08:10 PM

I would of made a copy of the script &+ kept it to myself. lol.
Then returned it [:
hahaha...

kaykay793 · 06-10-2009, 08:56 PM

hmmm, i def would have returned it and i wouldnt be able to resist reading it lol. but im confuse if she just read it and returned it.. than how was it leaked online, i do not have a high self control and i did end up reading the copy, and it is legit b.c the clothes they describe bella is wearing in the script is the same in the trailer and some of the lines are the same from the script to the trailer.... hmmm...

ilovethis143 · 06-11-2009, 04:28 PM
