The next Batman and Ironman are being made. Avengers is being made. Atlas Shrugged is on it’s way.

Come on - Batman? Atlas Shrugged? Those are ideas from the 1940's and 1950's. Current hollywood writers write for the 20% of people who are hard core liberals or teenage boys who like soft porn and violence. Kind of like selling water to a man dying of thirst...

Why does everyone always blame writers? It's the producers who hold all the cards. Writers have no power at all. What is the point of me writing the most wonderful, witty, intelligent, humorous, thought-provoking, patriotic and conservative script of all time, if no producer will touch it? Writers have to write what is going to be made. Even then, most of their lovingly created scripts get rewritten anyway.

Writers are treated like dirt in the film industry. Which is amazing, since without writers Hollywood literally has no product.
