And I don't think I'm giving away any secrets here, but there are a lot of terrible scripts in this town.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
If it's a terrible script, it's a terrible bore.
If the scripts are not good, I'll tell somebody, 'This isn't good.'
The problems I have with a flawed script are always revealed in the editing room.
When you have a good script you're almost in more trouble than when you have a terrible script.
Most of the scripts that land on my desk are stuff you read and go, 'Is someone really gonna make this?'
Anybody could write a bad script, and I'm one of them, you know?
But most scripts are terrible. Most projects are bad, that's just kind of the way it is. And I'm not really attracted to those.
I've written plenty of scripts that sucked.
Scripts are corny and predictable. Real life is always better.
I've been spoiled by this project. I was given the script and went in to read, realizing that this was a powerful story and one that wasn't told very often.
