It’s the weekend, so watch a good movie with family and friends! 😎

A writer who follows NoFakeNews asked me to discuss how the motel scene in the movie Target List came to fruition. He thought it would be interesting for readers and other writers to understand how the scenes that end up in a feature film are edited and rewritten many times before the final version is produced. So, here is that discussion/explanation.

In the 2019 novel, The Target List, I wrote the motel scene with Clyde Daniel, not Donna Sawyer, as the main protagonist who enters a hotel room where a hired assassin awaits the return of Clyde and Donna.

From the Target List Novel…

In the novel, I had multiple assassins in the storyline, whom Clyde killed.

When MJ Palo and I began transforming the novel into a screenplay, we made several changes to the story. In this particular scene, we decided to soften the violence a bit and make Donna the character who enters the motel room to deal with the hired killer.

We still incorporated Donna hiding a gun between some towels instead of pillows, and surprising the hired gunman.

We also made a big decision to leave the assassin duct-taped to a chair alive and well, not to mention adding some timely comedic dialogue and a prop—a pocket knife that Clyde pulls out as Donna has a gun trained on Mr. X.

MJ Palo, Andrew Arguello, and I had several meetings and discussions about incorporating well-timed comedic moments into our story. We vacillated on the idea and finally decided that, in the right proportions, the adventure comedy route was the way to shoot this movie. In retrospect, I’m pleased with that decision.

There were several aspects of the novel that we were unable to incorporate into our film due to financial constraints. Even though Target List is a microbudget film, it still costs $2,500- $3,000 per minute to produce, and we had to be realistic about what could be included during production.

The Matrix Reloaded Yet Again

ORDER NOW!

The Matrix Reloaded Yet Again” is a book by Chris Kelly, Melissa Reizer, and John Reizer that explores the idea that our understanding of history and reality has been manipulated. The book delves into concepts like alternative timelines, simulated reality, and the existence of advanced ancient civilizations, encouraging readers to question the accepted narrative of history. 

Here’s a more detailed breakdown:

• The book suggests that the timeline of modern civilization has been intentionally altered, with a massive cataclysm and population reset occurring centuries ago, destroying the “Old World” and concealing its existence. 
• The authors propose that Old-World architectural constructs and technologies were repurposed and presented as creations of the “New World.” 
• The book explores the possibility that we are living in a simulated reality, questioning the nature of truth and perception. 
• The book encourages readers to consider alternative explanations for historical events, including the existence of giants, dinosaurs, and the true purpose of war.
• The book is aimed at readers interested in questioning the accepted version of history and exploring alternative perspectives on reality. 

In essence, “The Matrix Reloaded Yet Again” is a thought-provoking exploration of unconventional ideas, encouraging readers to question the nature of reality and the historical narratives we’ve been taught.

Target List Movie

Beating the Odds!

Tubi has over 80 million active subscribers!

“The odds of getting a truly independent film produced and distributed in today’s realm are slim to none.

Getting Target List onto major movie platforms was another miracle in the making. The fact that the movie has an underlying message that is censored on nearly all social media platforms and by most search engines that index Internet files and related content decreased the odds of successful production and distribution.

Yet despite all the impossible odds that screamed, there was no way this movie would get done, a team of determined creators made Target List a reality, and now it’s often featured on the homepage of one of the largest movie platforms in the world.

Own a Piece of

Independent Movie History

“Indie Films” at one point referred to movies created outside the tentacles of major Hollywood production studios; the term now encompasses films made each year by small independent companies, as well as an ever-increasing number of films backed by smaller companies that have significant financial backing coming from major Hollywood studios.

True Indie movies, like Target List, are entirely financed and produced outside the Big Hollywood studio system, often relying on individual investors or crowdfunding.

The incredible thing about Target List is that this film is an actual Indie production that’s performing admirably alongside much bigger-budget films.

A significant portion of our film’s success is directly attributed, in my opinion, to the large viewer base coming from NoFakeNews. Thanks for supporting the Target List indie film. We couldn’t have reached millions of people without your help!
