Do novels written in languages other than English stand a fair chance to being turned into a Hollywood movie?

If you could punch anyone of your choice in the face, with no ramifications, who would it be?





I'd clobber Brad Meltzer and George Lucas.

Fuck it, I'd blam Bay in da jaw too.

Are you a writer? An aspiring director? An actor? A Producer? An artist? A musician?

Realistically, the one question I'd ask would be how to break in as a writer, but to stay on topic ...

... what is the one thing for you in the Hollywood Industry that is under-the-skin excruciatingly annoying and painful? Something you'd do anything to avoid or eliminate entirely?

Kind of like a chain to move up in the movie business, if you want to start from scratch. I find all these categories interesting, there's no way I would jump ship and just go straight to directing. I feel as if you start from the bottom, and work your way up, you learn the best.
Your 'chain' is illogical. If you're a writer, you're a writer. You don't write just to have it serve as a stepping stone for you to get your hands on the tuba. Or to act.

lmao,sorry don.I would ask a hollywood person

#1. How does it effect you knowing that you've acomplished so much,in the chosen field and seeing. say stage grips set designers writers that work equally if not harder on films with you knowing that your pulling a far larger salary than some of these struggling workers.

#2. how much of your salary do you devote to helping the genuinly needy.

No wonder I'm not a reporter for some entertainment magazine or show,lol.

Is there an actor or writer who, if you were to work with, would make you feel star struck?

I didn't even notice that Tenoh came back!

Shut up Tenoh.

Okay, if I had one question for a high end Hollywood guy, and if they had to answer completely honestly with just one or two words to keep them from giving me a wuss out answer, I would have to ask what is more important, the money a picture makes or your personal pride with how the picture turned out? I'd just like to know where the professional and business man begins and the movie lover ends.
