: That particular point in the script is under a great bit
: of tweaking. I originally wrote the entire script to
: follow the game as close as possible (Draft 1). After
: that first draft, I then change as little as possible,
: but what I feel is necessary to help the story (be it
: added characters, or deleting a small mission and
: replacing it with something we only hear about
: [example: in TFL, I added a LOT of scenes near the end
: to correspond with the events in 'The Last Battle.'
: The added scenes were from the Legion vs
: Soulblighter's Army at Rhi'anon and intercut with
: Alric's team getting near Balor's camp])along and to
: make sense on screen.
: But on to your question. Draft 1 still had the Flag game.
: I feel that there needs to be some kind of competition
: in order to win the Trow's respect. Draft 2 had sort
: of a rugby type competition, which played out in my
: mind pretty well. The Trow would run after whomever
: had the ball and kick him (to death of course) and
: others would rush to grab it and get the heck away
: from the Trow. Also, it seemed interesting to me that
: the Light players would somehow have to get the ball
: away from the Trow (mainly by killing him, and when he
: turns to stone and collapses, they search through the
: rubble for the ball hurredly before another trow
: catches up to them). I'm now on to draft 3. I'm not
: sure if I'll keep the rugby game, go back to flags, or
: what. Anybody have any suggestions? There NEEDS to be
: a competition in there. And no, I don't think arm
: wrestling will be it. :)
My friend once told me about this comic scene he thought of, granted its out of place in a film but its funny so I'll say it. The one dwarf verses 50 Trow, in a DRINKING GAME. Oh yes. Picture the image of a dwarf siting on a giant stool, completely plastered taking a slug of Trow alchohol while a load of Trow collapse around him.
Seriously, a game of body count or something, or capture the flag. ie Trow flag at on side, Our flag at the other, first ones to capture the others flag win, thats the least cheesy way I can think of it.
