![]() ![]() ![]() Well David’s about to get a crash course in fatherhood. He just isn’t confident he’ll be able to handle it when the shit hits the… diapers. Take the fact that his girlfriend, Emma, is pregnant. But it’s hard to change your habits when you’ve been doing them for 42 years. If somebody needs something done, they DON’T call David.īut David’s not a bad guy. He works as a delivery man for his family business (a “Meat Store”) and he’s the low man on the totem pole. Let’s see if he’s indeed changed his ways.ĭavid Wozniak never quite grew up. He’d been making these really terrible goofy movies for a decade now (with the exception of a couple) and I guess he just got sick of it. I just knew that this was supposed to be the beginning of Vaughn’s resurgence as an actor. I didn’t know a whole lot about Delivery Man going into it. What does this have to do with today’s script? Everything!!!! Actually nothing. ![]() You, then, get to watch this push-pull battle between Google and the writers in real time, desperate to find out who wins! Okay, maybe that’s not as fascinating as I originally thought it was, but for someone obsessed with screenwriting, this is prime entertainment. So the writer wants Angry Indian Man yelling at all these poor interns. At the same time, the story requires a villain to work. You’d have these situations – like this evil villainous Indian character who worked at Google – and you’re wondering, how bad are they going to make him? Because if they make him too bad, they’re basically saying, “If you come work at Google, really angry Indian men are going to yell at you all day and make your life a living hell.” Which isn’t the best endorsement for the company. Yet it was fascinating to watch in the oddest way. Google Guys? Google, The Film? Don’t Loogle On My Google? Whatever the case, I assumed it was going to be horrible because it was so clearly an ad for Google. I don’t even remember what it was called. The one with Vince Vaughn and Owen Wilson? You have to keep this between us because I don’t want anyone else to find out. Writer: Ken Scott (adapted from the film “Starbuck” written by Ken Scott and Martin Petit)ĭetails: 103 pages – February 2012 – First DraftĪs long as we’re laying our cards on the table, I gotta be true to you. You stick with it long enough and good things come to you. Apparently, Vaughn liked Scott so much, he’s having him direct his next film, the Walter-Mitty-like “Business Trip,” as well (which I’ve read and thought was quite good). Not only to write the film, but to DIRECT it. Instead of going the typical Hollywood route of hiring a flashy big-name screenwriter to adapt the film, he hired Scott himself. Then Vince Vaughn saw the movie and wanted to make an American version of it. Writer-Director Ken Scott was making small indie movies in Canada for a decade when he conceived of “Starbuck.” The small-budgeted film made all of 1.6 million dollars at the global box office. Premise: When an aging irresponsible meat truck driver learns he’s fathered over 500 children via artificial insemination, he does everything in his power to help them, as long as they don’t find out who he is.Ībout: Well this is a bit of a rags to riches story. ![]()
