The Bitch List: A New Black List?

There's a new list of industry scripts about to run around town, and it's called "The Bitch List" a list of industry-voted scripts that all pass the Bechdel Test. Of course, the Bechdel Test is not a marker for quality, but for scripts that simply contain two named, female characters who talk to each other about something that is not a man. It sounds like an easy test, but most movies don't pass it. PopChange is currently compiling the list to have ready for January 2013. Who knows how many submissions they'll get, if any, or how good the scripts they receive will be, or if the list itself will gain any sort of traction or interest around town or even the internets. That being said, it's a pretty interesting concept, and I hope it goes well.

Best of luck, bitches!
