Q: Hollywood script vs Bollywood script

Omar ShehabI was comparing between the formats of scripts from both Hollywood and Bollywood. Following is the first page of the script of Pulp Fiction.

@KitFox how goes the writing?
 
4:04 PM
@RhysW About a third toward today's goal. You?
 
about the same, about 1.1k just a little more to go
its quite bad and i dont like my writing style but hey, thats what editings for right
 
Yeah. Worry about that stuff in December.
 
may have changed my story again, no demons this time
 
They might come back. You won't know until they do or don't.
 
whats yours about this year?
 
4:16 PM
Kind of about zombies.
Except maybe not.
 
kind of?
 
I haven't decided how real they actually are.
 
Pretend zombies?
 
In her head.
 
ahh
things that make people question whats real?
 
4:18 PM
yes
 
nice, mines going that route too, though in a very different way
My character is apparently also the narrator of this story
 
Hmm. I see.
 
Happened by accident
How much do you usually try to write over the weekends? I know i probably will struggle on work days to meet the suggested average so should probably adjust my weekend writing upwards
 
If you're ambitious and have nothing else to do, you could aim for 2500 words each day.
I think when Matt tried it that way, his goal was 1000 words on workdays, 3000 on weekend days.
 
Ah nice, so basically, i need to up my game
 
4:32 PM
Yes. Write as much as you can stand for as long as you have time.
Even 100 words in a fifteen minute break at work can make a difference.
I write at lunchtime and at night.
 
I couldn't do it at work, too loud and distracting an environment. Evenings is where it will be for me mostly. Maybe a half hour before work each day too, that could help actually

So this word counting site i use to keep track of where I am has a nice feature, it tells you your top 8 used words (ignoring things like 'the' and 'to') and how often you use them
whats fun about that is it sort of gives a little snippet view as to the topic of your book so far. e.g some of mine is 'nervous' 'tonight' 'happen' 'time' 'drink' 'friends'
 
7:35 PM
@RhysW Which site? That sounds cool.
 
@NeilFein I like reading these, gives me an insight into how other people write
