Latino Writers & Filmmakers...where are you?

The largest growing demographic group in the US. Soon to be the largest influx of monies into the economy. Latin artists need to be represented on the screen. We've heard of Robert Rodriguez, but why is he almost completely alone? Are Latino writers, directors, and producers not taken seriously and why?

Los artistas de Latino necesitan ser representados en la pantalla. Hemos oído hablar de Roberto Rodriguez. ¿Por qué está él casi totalmente solo? ¿No consideran a los escritores, a los directores, y a los productores de Latino serios y porqué?

Comic Book Adaptations...are they good for the movies?

Comic books and graphic novels are being bought up by the hundreds to adapt into screenplays. Is this good for the industry or do filmmakers water cutting edge content down to make it palatable for movie goers?

i.e. Wolverine and Batman both lose their darker sides in the movies.

Screenplays Wanted...writers wanted!

If you are looking for a screenplay or a writer for work, please post it here. Include correct contact information.

Who is to blame for bad movies? Producers, directors, writers?

Most bad movies in my opinion start with a bad script. Good stories with bad execution are still bad screenplays. You can't shine a turd no matter how good a director you hire or how large a budget you have.
