Great news, Scott. Congratulations!
The Bitter Script Reader at 2011-08-30 14:16:22:
Congrats! I can't think of anyone more deserving or better suited to be the official blog of the Black List.
Joshua James at 2011-08-30 14:25:27:
Woo-hoo! You rawk, Scott!
Darren McLeod at 2011-08-30 14:52:53:

Let me join in the chorus of people congratulating you! Yay!
John at 2011-08-30 15:01:36:
Dude! That sound is the sound of chairs falling over, every single one in every single comedy club and honky tonk you played in up and down the coast...falling over in the wake of a unanimous Standing O!
Adam at 2011-08-30 15:12:18:
Very cool. Congrats, Scott.
Gabe at 2011-08-30 15:26:16:

Congrats! Can't wait to see where this goes!

Congrats to both you and the Black List. What a nice pairing.
Alex at 2011-08-30 16:44:15:
Between this & the master classes... Go Into The Story has become quite a launchpad. Congrats, Scott.
Anne at 2011-08-30 16:46:15:
Congratulations! Wherever your blog goes, I'm going anyway :)
The Bitter Script Reader at 2011-08-30 17:05:14:
Will this mean the blog gets a new, more "Black List-y" title? Something like "We're Gonna F*** the S*** Out of this Story!"

Kickin' it old-school -- Word up on the great news!

From last week's post I had a feeling the news would shake things up but I wasn't expecting this.

Look forward to the new venture that is... GITS!
MonaLiNYC at 2011-08-30 18:07:46:
This is so fab -- Congratulations!

** Sorry for the double post -- have no idea how that happened! But hey, the news was so great I had to say it twice!
Scott at 2011-08-30 18:18:44:
Thanks, all, for the kind words. I think you'll be even more excited as you learn details. More tomorrow.
Nick Oleksiw at 2011-08-30 18:33:24:
Wow, awesome man! Excited!!!
dabba at 2011-08-30 20:02:00:
Congratulations Scott. Been reading for a while and posted my first comment a few weeks back. Atleast I can't be accused of jumping on the bandwagon! Although this is a wagon I would happily board.
judy at 2011-08-30 21:21:47:
Super. This is huge!

Congratulations, Scott and Franklin!

It will be exciting to see what you two exceptional movie experts and boosters do with this fledgling beautiful friendship.
DAVID BISHOP at 2011-08-30 21:58:26:
A match made in screenwriting heaven, I'd say. Mazel Tov!
L. F. at 2011-08-30 23:48:33:
Awesome!
Sachin at 2011-08-31 01:15:00:
Congratulations Scott. Superb, awesome, a big feather in the GITS cap.
Christopher at 2011-08-31 01:18:50:
Congratulations!
James at 2011-08-31 02:27:17:
Awesome!

But I can't help wondering -- what does this mean?

Any way you slice it, looking forward to whatever this brings!
Lazzard at 2011-08-31 03:42:47:
Great news! Any chance of a link up with the Brit List (just thinking of myself , you understand...)
Sean Z P Harris at 2011-08-31 04:18:43:
Fantastic news, Scott. I knew it was going to be something special, but this is 'Über Special' and not what I was expecting at all (in a good way!).
Scott at 2011-08-31 07:14:13:
@James and everyone else: Re what "this means," as with every new venture, there is always some uncertainty. Otherwise where's the fun! Franklin and I have talked at length about all sorts of possibilities. Some of them are immediate and near-term, and I will discuss those in a post tomorrow. Some are more hypothetical and while exciting to discuss, not ready for public purview at present. But be assured, while this transition will represent a degree of change, even down to a redirected url and site design, the spirit of GITS will remain pretty much the same. And as I've indicated, the content while remaining on the schedule you've come to expect should get even better.

More on that tomorrow. Later today, a post on the synergy between The Black List and Go Into The Story, and why Franklin and I have decided to build on that.
Joe Unidos at 2011-08-31 07:36:28:
Congratulations. Win-win all around.
tracinell at 2011-08-31 09:20:03:
Beautiful friendship indeed! Congrats to the both of you, Scott and Franklin. Loving the Black List site--it's so slimming! ;)
CRANKY at 2011-08-31 09:35:08:
Looking forward to it.
