Virtual pitchfest and tentpole movies

The Virtual pitchfest website attempts to connect screenwriters with movie production companies and agents for a fee.  The site also offers advice on writing a pitch letter and offers a service for reviewing pitch letters.  The production company list is helpful.  It describes the types of scripts that each production company has an interest in producing. 

Several of the production companies were looking for a tentpole movie.  A tentpole movie is an anchor or franchise movie for a studio.  An example would be the first movie in the Harry Potter series for Warner Brothers.  The movies are big budget blockbusters.
