lakorn scripts

[kikenyoy]

Is there any way to find online or buy the scripts to lakorns? I would like for them to be (at least close to) word-for-word what's on the dvds, not just the story in book format.

ethaicd has a book for the series oom ruk listed in their store but I can't tell if it's a script or just the story. I'll send them an email, but I was wondering if anyone here had any info about finding scripts.

For the Book at ethaicd I think it will be just the Story no Scripts.

For Lakorn Scripts I can't help you but here is a very good Link for Movie Scripts in Thai, mainly Hollywood Movies which have been translated into Thai:

You can buy for example these Movies with Thai Soundtrack at

http://www.ethaicd.com/

and print the Movie Scripts and try to read along; or hear some sentences from the Movie first and then read and recheck if you understood it right.

Thanks djaidee.

When I was searching for the scripts online I read an old post on some fan forum that said production companies sometimes release a magazine script before the lakorn airs on tv. Have you (or anyone else) seen these? I'm going to try asking at a few local Thai book shops.

Some lakorn mags do post portions of scripts...but certainly not all 20 hours! I have found many lakorn mags on ethaicd, but they go fast and aren't re-printed.

Thanks Pailin.
I thought they might do something like 1 episode per issue. oh well.

The oom ruk book at ethai is 588 pages (!) I guess they they don't have any nightowls working there so I I'll have to wait till tomorrow (err, actually later today ) to find out about it. It will probably be a novelization but if it's close to the script then I'll probably buy it anyway.
