When you have a good script you're almost in more trouble than when you have a terrible script.

A horrible script 99 percent of the time means a horrible movie. But if you start with a good script, odds are you're going to have a good movie.

Sometimes reading scripts is terrible.

If the scripts are not good, I'll tell somebody, 'This isn't good.'

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.

Sometimes I read a really good script, and I just know that it's not a good fit.

I've written plenty of scripts that sucked.

There is no bore like a clever bore.

Generally, screenplays suck.

Scripts are corny and predictable. Real life is always better.
