Deleted Scene (From Sporadikos)

April 26, 2010

I was cleaning/organizing my bedroom when I came across the beginning of a Sporadikos comic script that I decided to give the axe. It was a Christmas-based one starring the Jungle Girl and the talking sloth.

He is the partially finished script:

The Jungle Girl and the sloth are decorating the treehouse for the Holidays.

GIRL

What’s you’re favorite Christmas movie?

SLOTH

“it’s a Wonderful Life”

GIRL

Typical

SLOTH

What’s yours?

GIRL

“Gremlins”

SLOTH

That’s not a Christmas movie!

GIRL

“Gremlin’s 2″ isn’t a christmas movie

SLOTH

When was the last time you saw “Gremlins?”

GIRL

Pre-Dinosaur, zombie-monkey, nuclear holocaust apocalypse

—and it cuts off here—

I think there was meant to be more after that, but I decided for (reasons I don’t entirely remember) to drop the whole thing. It may have been because the two characters only had one prior appearance and this being #2 didn’t seem right to me. Also, I may have not thought it was very good. Which explains why I’m posting it here rather than saving it for next year.
