IMSDb even allows users to sort by genre making it easier to pinpoint just action or comedy films.

About The Collection. There are currently 419 movie scripts available on Screenplay DB. More will be added pretty much daily, so keep checking back!

Scripts can also be rated on IMSDb, which is nice because sometimes scripts found online can be knockoffs rather than the actual script used for the film.

In the words of the author “If you can’t find your way around this site, you shouldn’t be on the web!” Screenplays for You is a script database – no frills, just scripts. SFY has hundreds of screenplays spanning decades of film production. Most of the scripts found here are shooting drafts, meaning they are formatted for the way the script looked during production rather than a reproduced script written after the movie was released. If you’re a screenwriter, John August is a great person to know.

On his website you’ll find scripts, schedules, breakdowns, and drafts for reference. You won’t find a lot of scripts, but the ones available are all high-quality. John August is also a host on the Scriptnotes podcast where he, along side Craig Mazin, talk about screenwriting and screenplays.
