It seems to me there is a real issue with collaborating creatively on a film with other writers or directors.
The problem here isn't even a technical one, but a matter of taste.
Everyone's taste is different.. Even with professional writers that are selling their scripts for $500,000, it's almost all crap to me as a viewer. Going off of 1900 ratings, only 1/5 movies are considered good by me. 1/50 are great. the vast majority are either okay, bad or abhorrent. And these are films that I purposefully seek out in hopes of being moved or entertained.
With so little appealing to my taste where does that leave me as a collaborator?
I am reaching to do something better but it's not quite within my grasp.
Maybe one day when I have learned enough.
