At the live [Scriptnotes show on May 15th](https://www.wgfoundation.org/screenwriting-events/scriptnotes-summer-superhero-spectacular/), we’ll be conducting a Three Page Challenge with special guest judge Susannah Grant.

Tuesday was the deadline for entering. All of the entries are now available for reading, both on [Weekend Read](https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/weekend-read/id502725173?mt=8) and [here](http://johnaugust.com/threepagelive).

Once you’ve had a look, vote for your favorite(s) — you can choose up to three entries you’d like us to discuss on the 15th. We will probably only have time for two three-pagers on the live show, but I wanted voters to be able to support more than just one entry.

Should you vote for the best written entry, or the one that needs the most constructive criticism? Your call.

Voting is [open now](http://johnaugust.com/threepagelive), and runs through noon on Wednesday, May 14th.

You can’t have a superhero movie without epic theme music. Likewise, we can’t have a Scriptnotes live show about superheroes without a suitably giant arrangement of our piddly five-note jingle.

Luckily, Matthew Chilelli [has it covered](https://soundcloud.com/matthew-chilelli/scriptnotes-superhero-spectacular):

The pre-show cocktails are sold out, but there are still a [few tickets available](https://www.wgfoundation.org/screenwriting-events/scriptnotes-summer-superhero-spectacular/) for our May 15th live show featuring Christopher Markus & Stephen McFeely, David Goyer,
Andrea Berloff and Susannah Grant.

We’re doing a live episode of Scriptnotes on Thursday, May 15th at the Writers Guild Theater in Beverly Hills. It’s a benefit for the Writers Guild Foundation.

This time, we’re featuring some of the biggest names behind the biggest superhero movies.

Scheduled panelists include:

– **Christopher Markus & Stephen McFeely** (both Captain Americas, Thor: The Dark World, and the Narnia movies)

– **David Goyer** (Batman vs. Superman, Man of Steel, Batman Begins, Blade, the upcoming Constantine)

– **Andrea Berloff** (Conan The Legend, World Trade Center, Straight Outta Compton and Blood Father)

Marvel and DC together on stage! Swords vs. hammers! Umbrage vs. reason! Plus more special guests.

We’ll also be doing a live Three Page Challenge. Details will be announced next week, but this will be a new process (that is, we won’t be pulling from the backlog) and may involve listeners getting to choose which entries we discuss.

But there’s more!

We’re selling a limited number of tickets for an exclusive pre-show cocktail party co-hosted by Aline Brosh McKenna, where you can mingle with these guests and other favorites from our first 150 episodes.

Pre-show cocktails at 6:30pm. Show begins at 7:30pm.

All tickets go on sale **Thursday, April 17th at 10am Pacific** at the [Writers Guild Foundation website](https://www.wgfoundation.org/screenwriting-events/scriptnotes-summer-superhero-spectacular/).
