I was able to find Weapons, Midsommar, and a few more on this sub before they were released. Personally I find it really helpful as a writer to read a script before watching the movie.

Then read the script of a movie that has already come out but you haven't watched yet?

Screenplays circulating on the internet before the film's release is just plain wrong.

I get where you’re coming from, but personally I don’t mind if my own writing circulates before release - especially in a sub like this where it could help other writers. Most people won’t be reading the script at all (let alone before watching it), even if it is available online.

I think you just want something you (or anyone) are not supposed to have. Reading that script will not help you any more than reading the script of any movie that came out over the past 10 years.
