\u201cA guy in Jon Peters\u2019 office phoned me up and he said, \u2018So Neil, have you had a chance to read the script we sent you?\u2019 And I said, \u2018Well, yes. Yes, I did. I haven\u2019t read all of it, but I\u2019ve read enough.\u2019 He says, \u2018So, pretty good. Huh?\u2019 And I said, \u2018Well, no. It really isn\u2019t.\u2019 He said, \u2018Oh, come on. There must have been stuff in there you loved.\u2019 I said, \u2018There was nothing in there I loved. There was nothing in there I liked. It was the worst script that I\u2019ve ever read by anybody. It\u2019s not just the worst Sandman script. That was the worst script I\u2019ve ever been sent.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m not sure if it would\u2019ve been an action movie or quite what it would\u2019ve been. It was a mess. It never got better than a mess.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI sent the script to Ain\u2019t It Cool News, which back then was read by people. And I thought, I wonder what Ain\u2019t It Cool News will think of the script that they\u2019re going to receive anonymously. And they wrote a fabulous article about how it was the worst script they\u2019d ever been sent. And suddenly the prospect of that film happening went away. And instead Jon Peters turned his attention to \u2018Wild Wild West.’\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cIt had giant mechanical spiders in it\u2026 Lucifer, Morpheus and the Corinthian were identical triplets. They were a family of identical brothers, and it was all a race to see who could get the ruby, the helm and the bag of sand before midnight on 1999, before the new millennium started, because whoever got it would be the winner. That was the plot.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
