9781455526307 English 1455526304 Bob Odenkirk and David Cross, creators of HBO's classic sketch comedy show "Mr. Show, " present to you this collection of never-before-seen scripts and ideas that Hollywood couldn't find the gumption to green-light. Simply put... HOLLYWOOD SAID NO Since "Mr. Show" closed up shop, Bob and David have kept busy with many projects--acting in fun, successful, movies and TV shows, directing things, and complaining about stuff that didn't turn out well to anyone who would listen, and even alone, in silence, inside their own heads. HOLLYWOOD SAID NO reveals the full-length, never-before-seen scripts for "Bob and David Make a Movie" (fleshed out with brand-new storyboards by acclaimed artist Mike Mitchell) and "Hooray For America " a satirical power-house indictment of all that you hold dear. This tome also includes a bonus section of orphaned sketch ideas from the "Mr. Show" days and beyond, suitable for performance by church groups that aren't all koo-koo about religion. What you are looking at online, and are about to buy, is chock-full of comic twists, turns, and maybe a few hard truths. We said "maybe," but what we mean was "probably not." Now, for the first time, take a peek at the scripts that didn't get the go-ahead and ponder a world we can only dream about...and beyond, Orphaned Film Scripts, Bastard Scenes, and Abandoned Darlings from the Creators of Mr Show., The creative geniuses behind HBO's classic sketch comedy Mr. Show are back with a collection of hilarious, never-before-seen scripts that may have been just too good for Hollywood. 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 actors/writers/comedians Bob Odenkirk and David Cross, the two have simply moved on to other projects and/or continued living their lives. But what if those scripts were actually hilarious? What if they deserved to see the light of day? What if Hollywood was just...wrong? HOLLYWOOD SAID NO! includes the full-length, never-before-seen scripts for Bob and David Make a Movie and Hooray For America! They are all presented in a more readable manner than standard film scripts, and Bob and David Make a Movie has been fleshed out with brand-new storyboards by acclaimed artist Mike Mitchell, all drawn exclusively for this book. And because Bob and David love you, the book even includes a bonus section of orphaned sketch ideas from the Mr. Show days, suitable for performance by church groups that aren't all koo-koo about religion. Wait, there's still more! The book will also include a section of "constructive" notes written by "studio executives." And last but not least (well, possibly least), Bob and David will provide a section of reminiscenses about the creation of each script to add context and back story on what went right and what went wrong. Will you shout "YES!" where Hollywood screamed "NO!"? It doesn't matter, nobody can hear you.
