What is this
2500+ Screenplays scraped from the scriptlab for science purposes
Different folders
pdfs includes screenplays as PDFs, this is the raw scraped data.
text2 includes PDFs converted into .txt directly, some pdfs have formatting issues and some are outright blank or have obfuscated text.
texts3 includes OCRd PDFs which mitigate the previous issues but add issues with slight character or formatting errors (like inconsistent newlines)
Note: Originally we were going to do OCR, however, some morons put image decompression bombs and I can't be bothered to fight that, for now around 1/6 pdfs with DRMs won't be available as .txt format, feel free to convert them to .txt yourself and send a merge request though!
Obviously the TAR files are compressed versions of the folders.
It could be helpful to use an LLM to clean it up! Make sure the LLM doesn't change any of the actual contents. Otherwise I don't have enough time to do it but still want to release this golden trove of data.
