: First Question: What do you think of Peter Jackson.
I've always been a big Peter Jackson fan, although I liked BAD TASTE a lot more when I first saw it 12 years ago then I did when I watched the Anchor Bay DVD.
I still love DEAD/ALIVE and HEAVENLY CREATURES is an outright masterpiece, and am really digging the LORD OF THE RINGS films (I liked THE TWO TOWERS a lot more than FELLOWSHIP, though). I wasn't too keen on THE FRIGHTENERS, however.
: Second Question: How long does it usually take you to write a script?
That really depends. I wrote A BETTER PLACE in about 6 months, but it took me 3 years to finish the first draft of AUTOGRAPH. I know some people who can knock out a script in a couple weeks. It's up to the individual writer.
