Yes, you needed video.
I just finished one of my scripts and it's coming up a little short (84 pages). The two or three action scenes may end up pushing it right to 90ish minutes, which leaves very little room. How do you guys add in stuff? Do you add characters, split up scenes or what? I find that this always happens.

The outline I was working from (I didn't write it) seemed solid, and I really worked hard to make sure the story stayed at the essence, as there were originally a whole excess of characters and the whole thing felt like a TV series, but now I'm worried that things may be too straight forward, and we'll have an 80 minute movie on our hands. The other problems are more related to overall structure, but the first act kind of blends right into the second act (there's no real shift as usual), and the movie ends a bit abruptly.
