Default Re: Star Trek III: Redemption

It's not about perfection or imperfection, it's about having different numbering systems and sometimes using different ones. Simple as that. By one numbering system, the scene I just posted was Scene 9AB. By another it was simply Scene 9. By another, we're already up to Scene 12.

When I was producing Specter, I kept close track of the scene numbers, but then halfway through the whole thing wound up getting rewritten, and the old scene numbers became meaningless, so it got tricky figuring out exactly how many scenes the movie actually had--and to this day I'm still not entirely sure. In Retribution I was a little less meticulous--since there was never a mid-production rewrite it didn't seem proper--and this time around I'm more concerned with producing the scenes than I am with numbering them.
