I get so many of these a day. Once in a while, I return an email (from my work account that I don't care about) with something like:

"Bravo! You've done a splendid job here. However, I'd change your story a little as I see potential plot holes here (mention any possible factual errors) before submitting this again to us at (pick a movie studio name). Are there any actors in particular you had in mind to play (insert names they've given)?"

They never respond though...
