No, he instead upgraded his life in a bolder way, applying all that he learned, and became an ideal teacher in the field in the "process". What a testament to perseverance this is!

there's many people working in Hollywood who don't make the final credit list of a movie (or TV). I know storyboard artists who've worked on dozens of movies where they aren't credited. Many writers do a polish or rewrite on scripts where they aren't listed in the credits. Or being paid to write a script that doesn't get made. Also you have to submit to IMDB to keep your IMDB up to date - many forget or don't bother or don't care.

Fascinating and insightful talk. As an aspiring, frustrated screenwriter, I get a lot out of this. And I LOVE that he reflects on the bigger spiritual questions - it's so easy to get caught up in Hollywood success, but we need to back up and look at our lives and what has real meaning and lasting impact. Years ago I got his first draft script for Battlefield Earth. I always liked the movie for its unmitigated B-grade campy fun. His script is basically the film, so I don't understand why he felt so bad about the final product. Sure, maybe it was because Travolta chose to play the bad guy. But as far as content, dialogue, etc., it's all in his script. Maybe he hates the dutch angles.

Amazing interview, thank you very much for posting it! Seeing Mr. Mandell speak about the ill-fated script makes me feel immensely inspired.

Great to see your reaction! We were very fortunate that Corey gave us extended time. Believe we have over 3 hours on the timeline. The entire interview is top notch. Excited to share more.
