Where can I find good scripts?

Don't get confused about passion projects, the question is more about what you can bring to the feature.if it's not your kind of script. Even more important perhaps, is this a good script?

The script is not bad at all, it's more on the bigger budget sci-fi side, but looking at the other director and producer's plan, they seem to have a solid plan on locations and production design so far.

The only thing is, is that it feels like another rip off of The Hunger Games, like Maze Runner or Divergent or something like that, or just another familiar take on it, like I've seen before. So maybe this can be enjoyable, I just don't if it will get lost in shuffle, if we've seen this kind of thing before, that's all. But it's not bad per say.

Many of these low budget genre films are rip offs of other films, they're just aiming at a known market.

Yeah that's true, It's just if it's a rip off than the competition is more, cause you are getting people to compare to another previous movie then, rather than trying to create a more original story. But I can do it, since I felt like it was a good opportunity that was offered to me, if they get the funding.
