It's hard to write a film. It's even harder to get that film made.
So, over the years, when Hollywood has said 'NO!' to acclaimed
actors/writers/comedians Bob Odenkirk and David Cross, the two have
simply moved on to other endeavors and/or continued living their
lives. But wait! What if those scripts were absolutely hilarious?
What if they clearly deserved to see the light of day? What if
Hollywood was just...wrong? And so this book was born. HOLLYWOOD
SAID NO! includes the full-length, never-before-seen scripts for
Sketch Movie and Hooray For America! They are presented in a far
more readable manner than standard film scripts - the script/film
lingo has been changed into much more accessible prose and the
scripts have been fleshed out with brand new storyboards and
illustrations by acclaimed artist Mike Mitchell in order to further
demonstrate Bob & David's original vision for each piece. But
there's more! Also in the book are tons of other orphaned sketch
ideas, such as Nineteen Fifty Bleven, about a past President's
secret and ultimately successful attempt to eradicate the number
between seven and eight (bleven). The book will also include, via
red pen in the margins, 'constructive' notes on each script from a
'studio executive.' While the notes are jokes written by Bob &
David, they do approximate the actual reaction the scripts received
in Hollywood. Bob and David will also provide introductions to each
piece to add context, back story and shed light on the creation of
each piece, as well as what went awry in each case. The legions of
Bob and David fans that have been patiently waiting for years for
more material will undoubtedly say YES! to HOLLYWOOD SAID NO! It
will be an absolutely indispensable humor book of 2013.
