X-Men Origins Rare First Draft Screenplay With Studio Executive Notes
X-Men Origins Rare First Draft Screenplay With Studio Executive Notes - So much press is lavished on the creators of a film, that one forgets that these projects are financed by studios who have a vested interest in making sure the film comes out the way they want (that is: makes a ton of money!). Therefore, from the earliest days of the silent films, to the present, there have been "silent powers", known as the Studio Executives, who not only made copious notes that shaped the future of their films, but in most cases has final power as to exactly what we see on the screen in the end. This is a fascinating and rare example. For "X-Men Origins: Wolverine" (2009), this is a high level 20th Century Fox Studio Executive's notes on the first draft screenplay dated June 19th, 2007. His elaborate notes are absorbing entertainment on their own, especially when you read the script, and see how much it changed and developed from this version to the final film. The script changed so much that the original writer of this version did not make the final arbitration, and two other writers received the final credit from their draft. This was an extremely confidential script, and only a small amount of copies were ever produced to give to the top creative production personnel. This is one of these limited edition inner-office copies.
