"Ben and Tom are a great fit for me. I love working with talented
writers and then telling people everything was my idea. This is a
great book, that I pitched to them a while back... I'm thrilled
that they finally got around to writing it."--Danny DeVito
"Some screenwriters have a knack for capturing the heart and soul
of characters, the nuance of themes, the richness of the human
experience. And some are like Tom and Ben." --Shawn Levy, Film
Director & Producer
"These guys are proof that with no training and little education,
ANYONE can make it as a screenwriter."--Paul Rudd
"These guys probably ripped off everything in this book just like
they do in all their screenplays. That would explain why it's
actually kind of good."--Ed Helms
"These two guys are the reason Night at the Museum won so many
Oscars"--Ben Stiller
"Tom and Ben are two of the writers currently working in Hollywood.
I can add they make a 'profit' on each of their writing jobs, as I
believe they have very little overhead. Therefore, they are clearly
qualified to write this book. Having not read it, I can tell you
that it is uproariously funny, perhaps the best book on writing
ever." --Zak Penn, Film Screenwriter & Director
"Tom and Ben's valuable insight into writing for a Volkswagen bug
and creating the 'Lawrence of Arabia of Ping Pong films' make this
book far more informative to the young dramatist than the vastly
over-rated 'Aristotle's Poetics.'"--Jonathan Glickman, Film
Producer, President of MGM, Motion Picture Group
