I wrote like an essay on what I thought was wrong about the last two Pirates of the Caribbean movies...then I felt like a douche for being that guy...like it was seriously a solid 4 pages long.

Then I realized my main problem was I felt like I could have written it better.

So in lieu of the essay (which you can have upon request) I present the first page I wrote of my movie that's better than the last two Pirates of the Caribbean (I'm fine with it being just as good as the first):

EXT. MAIN STREET - AFTERNOON

The Sheriff stands in the middle of the street
eyes fixed on the cloud of dust far off on the
hill kicked up by the impending posse. He is
flanked by Old Veteran and Bartender who now
brandishes the large rifle from behind his bar. Old Veteran
in anticipation unholsters his gun but The Sheriff
raises his hand to stop him.

THE SHERIFF
We don't want to give them a reason

EXT. HOTEL BALCONY - AFTERNOON

The Mayor stands on the wooden balcony and looks
towards the hill through a telescope.

Through the telescope we see four horses and
riders charging the town at a breakneck pace. Each
rider is saddless, instead wrapping their hands in
the horses manes and, low on the horse, holding
tightly with their legs. The horses are spooked
and wildly bucking. They run seeming to want to rid
themselves of their riders as much as forge ahead.
The Mayor looks up from his telescope.

THE MAYOR
(under his breath)
...what the hell...

EXT. MAIN STREET - AFTERNOON

The three men hold their positions as the horses
come into sight. The Sheriff's eyes move as he sees
Jim stick his head through the barred windows of
his cell, eyes wild.

JIM
(Desperately)
For god's sake shoot em'! SHOOT EM' NOW!

For some context:
1. Yes, they'll have actual names eventually
2. If they ever give me money MAYBE you can be in it. In the background. But you'd die fast
3. The Old Veteran is about to get owned
