In this script I felt the authors pushed their ideas onto the reader too much, without allowing us to make absolutely anything into a creation ourselves. They began immediately with explaining exactly how the credits would roll, and delved deeper from there. With the smallest details being brought forth to mind they spared no imaginative outlet for what would be the director and producers, practically begging the readers to see it only their way. That is not what script writing is about. It seems somewhat unprofessional to me that they would be so controlling. The visual details about the buggy, the clothing, and everything in between were spelled out for you as though you were reading a novel instead of a screenplay. I thought they had some very insightful suggestions and ideas, but they just simply got too carried away.
1. What problems might you encounter when writing collaboratively?
2. Do you agree or disagree that detail can overpower the creation of a script?

When writing collaboratively, problems come in swarms. Even if friends or acquaintances, it is as if the individuals are forced to move into together, jointly maintain the residence, and together receive criticism for their efforts toward the home. Each writer must provide enough support within their own contribution, while working in unison to create something that is balanced and productive. The clash of aesthetic decisions and incompatibilities of personalities are often the origins of problems.
