o-kay...

maybe you don't like 'the post-graduate' but can't bring your fine selves to tell us that it's a terrible title... we've been considering that possibility and have decided to let you in on the whole brain-storming process... below is a list of words/phrases/concepts that we've considered... let us know if anything sticks or whatever. please! thank you! you're welcome!

the list starts now:
- incomplete
- a work in progress
- in limbo
- spinning wheels
- plans
- digression
- stray
- parenthetical
- the long finish
- the end
- misdirection
- all the high school girls
- a momentary lapse of reason
- the post-graduate
- the lack
- dating two girls at once while you're trying to work out your own issues probably isn't a great idea
- how it ends
- perspective (or a lack thereof)
- this is your only second chance
- twenty-five
- changes
- ...
- full circle

so... what do you think?

You know, I'd love to help out but I'd have to see it first. ;)

Richard did not enlighten me on the film beyond what I already knew from reading here.

Bastard.

My word verification for the entry, if sounded out, is real dirty.

i'm glad to hear that richard is adhering to the terms of the confidentiality agreement that he signed prior to viewing the film.

and really, for those of you not intimately familiar with the script/film, we're more asking for impressions... when you hear this title or that title, how do you feel? does it... intrigue you? what sort of movie do you think might have a title like this?

that sort of stuff.

right now we're leaning toward "how it ends" and away from "drift".

how does that sit?

The only one I liked in that list was "digression" and I still don't like that one very much.

Grammar School Pictures said...

yeah, most of those weren't actual title suggestions, just brainstorming words/phrases/concepts

"How It Ends," eh?

Does someone die?

That's what comes to mind for me. I would expect a thoroughly depressing death.

Grammar School Pictures said...

actually, everyone dies. not to spoil it, but a meteor collides with the earth at the end of the second act and what started out as a light-hearted dramedy about a young man returning to an uncomfortable family situation and dating two loopy girls, turns into a fight for survival in a post-apocalyptic environment... but who will he take as his savage wife?

Maybe you should just call it Dramedy. Honestly, that made me laugh out loud.
