A WRITER'S STORY ABOUT CREDIT ARBITRATION
Very interesting interview with 'AvP' Writer Peter Briggs and his experience seeing his 13 year vision of Alien vs. Predator and what it ended up being.
"I came out of the cinema (from "A vs P") afterwards, and I felt... I don't know. Empty. Depressed, actually. I thought: "you know, I've been championing this thing for 13 years...and what a sterile letdown. Why did I bother?" It was interesting. I thought about going off and getting very drunk, but just went home and read a book instead."
Worth a read for those of us trying to become writers in Hollywood and the lesson we can learn from his experience.
