Black List Script Hosting Service

[googoomuck]

Has anyone used the Black List service? I'm trying to find out information about it. If you've never heard of it, you pay $25 to have your screenplay hosted in their database for a month. For an additional fee (I think $50) you can pay for script coverage which boosts your visibility on the site. Filmmakers can access your script as can agents and managers. The Revenant and Spotlight both began as Black List scripts, and many more.

Anybody tried it? It's been hard for me to find info about users' experiences with it. I'm thinking about trying it at some point, if just out of curiosity. At least your money can guarantee some feedback.

Thoughts? Opinions? Emotions? Discuss!

This was inconclusive for me as far as user reviews go. This hints at some sort of scam set up through the script review process.

I'm always hesitant of sites that don't post user reviews or user experiences. The site claims success for many of its users and lists all of the screenplays it sold. The site itself also appears legitimate. So, I guess its up to you whether or not you want to pay for it. I think it might be worth the $25 (or +$50) try if you didn't have access to these kind of resources otherwise.

I hope it goes well whatever you decide!
