Davis Freeberg’s Site Of The Week
ANDREW -This is the worst fake ID I’ve ever seen…
Brian laughs.
ANDREW – Do you realize you made yourself sixty eight?
BRIAN – Oh, I know…I know, I goofed it…
ANDREW – What do you need a fake ID for?
BRIAN – (like it’s obvious) So I can vote!

After a week of voting the polls have finally closed and the Internet Movie Script Database won the honor of being this year’s first site of the week. It’s hard to imagine that this site is operating in full compliance of copyright law, but it’s still a great resource for discovering hard to find quotes. It features scripts for a large number of popular movies that have come out over the years. Some of the scripts only contain a few scenes and some of them are early rough drafts that were later changed, but if you are looking for that killer quote from a film and can’t seem to find it, IMSDB is the place to look.
While surfing the site I noticed that I seemed to gravitate more towards films that were recognizable and that I had already seen. I got more enjoyment from reliving classic moments in film history than from reading through scripts that I had never seen on the big screen. The site’s use of aggressive pop up ads was a bit of a turn off for me, but the overall quality of the content made up for this intrusion.
If you would like to nominate a site for consideration as the site of the week, you can email your suggestions to Davis AT DavisFreeberg Dot Com, in the meantime here are the nominations for next week’s site of the week.
