Kevin Smith posts a scene from “Hit Somebody”
A draft of a scene from the script he’s currently writing. Here’s Smith’s comments about the scene:
This is a work-in-progress, not the final script, or even the final version of the scene. When all’s said and done, there’s a good chance this scene might not even make the final draft, left alone the first cut. Consider it more of a sketch than anything else: an impression of what I’m going for in HIT SOMEBODY. I left a blank space in one section of Blue Jay’s dialogue to conceal a plot point.
This scene takes place about 60 pages into the current draft of HIT SOMEBODY. It’s 1961 and our lead character, Buddy McCracken, is 11. Buddy’s suffering from a personal loss when he’s visited on his family’s Saskatchewan farm by the man who’ll be his first hockey coach, Blue Jay Jennings (written for John Goodman).

What do you think? Kind of a fun, innovative way to promote a movie.
