Transcript USA chat guest screenwriter David B. Hayter and EURO chat Superhero Films May 22, 2011


#Scriptchat TOPIC:
EURO: Superhero Films
USA: Screenwriter of X-MEN and WATCHMEN, David B. Hayter @DavidBHayter

Holy Tequila, Batman, this was one hell of a scriptchat night! First, EURO revved the engines by talking Superhero Films. Then David B Hayter @DavidBHayter, screenwriter of X-MEN and WATCHMEN graciously fielded a zillion questions from not only writers but fans from around the world! I can say without any hesitation, this was the fastest, most well-attended chat we’ve ever had. David’s generosity, humor and honesty filled our writers with more knowledge than they dreamed possible. We can’t thank David enough. I assure you, we’ll have him back! Maybe we can get him on a EURO time slot next! Until then, read and enjoy! @jeannevb


EURO moderator: Mina Zaher, @Mina_Zaher
USA moderator: Jeanne Veillette Bowerman, @jeannevb

@mina_zaher: Iron Man 2 is on at the moment! ;) #scriptchat
May 22, 2011, 7:02 pm           



 
@Deacyliam: Is it possible to write an original superhero story that will sell? #scriptchat
May 22, 2011, 7:02 pm           



 
@alli_and_that: People never seem to get tired of the superhero genre, particularly when it's done well. #scriptchat
May 22, 2011, 7:02 pm           



 
@mina_zaher: So what's everyone thinking? Anyone thinking of writing a superhero movie? Or would you consider writing a graphic novel first? #scriptchat
May 22, 2011, 7:03 pm           



 
@alli_and_that: @Deacyliam There was an Aussie original superhero film released in Aus earlier this year (Griff the Invisible) that did well. #scriptchat
May 22, 2011, 7:03 pm           



 
@ebonstorm: @Deacyliam Yes, it is possible. Is there a filmmaker willing to take the risk. If you have an idea, write it, then sell it. #scriptchat
May 22, 2011, 7:04 pm           



 
@mmilam1: #scriptchat I could write a superhero movie. But I'm not sure how original it would look next to others.
May 22, 2011, 7:04 pm           



 
@filmutopia: #scriptchat I've collected and read comics all my life and I'd be terrified to take on that genre in a filmic form. Really hard to do well.
May 22, 2011, 7:04 pm           



 
@mina_zaher: @alli_and_that @Deacyliam That's interesting! Was Griff the Invisible published as a graphic novel first? #scriptchat
May 22, 2011, 7:04 pm           



 
@TheJudalina: RT @GREGBIELA: Right now someone else is working as hard as you should be. #scriptchat #tvwriterchat #AmWriting #filmmaking
May 22, 2011, 7:04 pm           



 
@createimbalance: @alli_and_that True, although those familiar with any genre pay more attention when something new is added to the mix. #scriptchat
May 22, 2011, 7:04 pm           



 
@mmilam1: #scriptchat one thing that it would need is humanity. Many of them these days lack that
May 22, 2011, 7:05 pm           



 
@frogfall: Has there been any recent film based on a character that hasn't already become popular via graphic novels? #scriptchat
May 22, 2011, 7:05 pm           



 
@ebonstorm: I think that the search for originality is over-rated. Focus on telling a worthwhile tale How it is filmed is a different issue. #scriptchat
May 22, 2011, 7:05 pm           



 
@mina_zaher: @filmutopia *waves* so great to see you Clive! :) #scriptchat
May 22, 2011, 7:06 pm           



 
@alli_and_that: @mina_zaher @Deacyliam As far as I know, it was always a film. #scriptchat

@alli_and_that: @createimbalance I think it's difficult to find that note of difference in a genre that's so well known. #scriptchat
May 22, 2011, 7:07 pm           



 
@mina_zaher: @alli_and_that @Deacyliam That's really great. I love the risks Australian film industry takes. #scriptchat
May 22, 2011, 7:07 pm           



 
@createimbalance: @ebonstorm How it is filmed is different, unless you're writing, directing and producing it. Few people do all that nowadays. #scriptchat
May 22, 2011, 7:07 pm           



 
@mina_zaher: @sweettweenie Hello! #scriptchat
May 22, 2011, 7:08 pm           



 
@Deacyliam: @ebonstorm I disagree I think originality is key. Look at Kick Ass #scriptchat
May 22, 2011, 7:08 pm           



 
@ebonstorm: Comics are not telling new stories. They are re-telling archetypical ones with contemporary themes. As such, find the relevant. #scriptchat

@marrquenunley: RT @ebonstorm: I think that the search for originality is over-rated. Focus on telling a worthwhile tale How it is filmed is a different issue. #scriptchat

@ebonstorm: @Deacyliam Sorry, Kick Ass is not new or original. Coming of age tale, common to the superhero genre. #scriptchat

@filmutopia: #scriptchat I think screenwriter often underestimate the sophistication of comics and graphic novels. The themes are often complex and dark
May 22, 2011, 7:09 pm           



 
@sweettweenie: I quite liked Despicable Me as a Villain movie, instead of SuperHero #scriptchat

@mina_zaher: @filmutopia Hope you enjoy this chat and that all's going well w/ new project. #oldskool #scriptchat-ter ;) #scriptchat
May 22, 2011, 7:09 pm           



 
@createimbalance: @alli_and_that True, plus some fans of the genre are practically impossible to please unless you do things their way. #scriptchat
May 22, 2011, 7:09 pm           



 
@ebonstorm: @filmutopia I will only partially agree with that. Superheroic themes do not HAVE to be dark. It is a current trend, that's all. #scriptchat
May 22, 2011, 7:09 pm           



 
@mina_zaher: What are the original elements of Kick Ass? RT @Deacyliam: @ebonstorm I disagree I think originality is key. Look at Kick Ass #scriptchat

May 22, 2011, 7:10 pm           



 
@alli_and_that: @createimbalance Yes. I think that the difference comes from original characters than original context. #scriptchat
May 22, 2011, 7:11 pm           



 
@sweettweenie: there seem to be loads coming out at the moment #scriptchat
May 22, 2011, 7:11 pm           



 
@filmutopia: @ebonstorm I didn't say they have to be dark. I said comic books tend to have dark and complex themes. #scriptchat
May 22, 2011, 7:11 pm           



 
@createimbalance: @filmutopia True. Many crucial points in graphic novels (or regular novels) can't be covered in a 120 minute film. #scriptchat

May 22, 2011, 7:12 pm           



 
@Deacyliam: @ebonstorm I take ur point #scriptchat but isn't that one of the elements that makes Kick Ass original as a superhero story.
May 22, 2011, 7:12 pm           



 
@ebonstorm: @Mina_Zaher Despicable Me is a great take on the failed Villain trope. Add some cute kids, a strange society & hilarity ensues. #scriptchat
May 22, 2011, 7:12 pm           



 
@filmutopia: #scriptchat I do know is the marvel talked about taking all the writing for their movies in house. They have always promoted new writers
May 22, 2011, 7:12 pm           



 
@mina_zaher: @mmilam1 What do you think would need to be original in a superhero movie? The superhero? The world? The villain? Superpowers? #scriptchat
May 22, 2011, 7:13 pm           



 
@ebonstorm: @Deacyliam No. I have read comics for 40 years. There is almost no variation on that trope I have not seen before. not so new... #scriptchat
May 22, 2011, 7:13 pm           



 
@sweettweenie: @alli_and_that haha, @TaroJ would agree, I'm not a huge fan #incredibles #scriptchat
May 22, 2011, 7:13 pm           



 
@_Nielsen: @Mina_Zaher I think what made Kick Ass distinct is its shock value & cringe worthy moments comedic & non (but still good) #scriptchat
May 22, 2011, 7:13 pm           



 
@whitniverse: @mina_zaher I'm writing a comic book based on a friend of mine. She's a drama student. How can I NOT try and film it?! #scriptchat

@alli_and_that: @ebonstorm @Mina_Zaher An original spin on existing themes. It makes ANY genre or story different. #scriptchat
May 22, 2011, 7:14 pm           



 
@ebonstorm: And I am not saying it would be easy to script a superhero tale. I am saying more focus on the humanity, less on the super. #scriptchat
May 22, 2011, 7:14 pm           



 
@mina_zaher: Would love to hear what tweeps think about superpowers! 2 kinds: The humans (Batman) vs. superhumans (X-Men) or are there more? #scriptchat
May 22, 2011, 7:15 pm           



 
@whitniverse: @alli_and_that #scriptchat Without a doubt yes!
May 22, 2011, 7:15 pm           



 
@ebonstorm: @filmutopia Some comics do. And most modern ones do, but they reflect society not necessarily the genre. #scriptchat
May 22, 2011, 7:15 pm           



 
@alli_and_that: @whitniverse (Welcome! Knew we'd get you in eventually!) #scriptchat

@_Nielsen: @Mina_Zaher where would you classify magic i.e. wizards etc? #scriptchat
May 22, 2011, 7:17 pm           



 
@ebonstorm: @Mindy_Crump I love the concepts of superhumanity, it is just hard to wrap people's minds around the humanity part of that. #scriptchat
May 22, 2011, 7:17 pm           



 
@filmutopia: #scriptchat I think Unbreakable was a solid attempt to make an adult and filmic superhero movie. Better than most of the recent adaptations

@mina_zaher: @alli_and_that *fingers crossed* please flag up if it Griff The Invisible gets a release *just in case we miss it*. #scriptchat

@alli_and_that: @_Nielsen @Mina_Zaher I would argue wizards and magic would generally come under 'fantasy' not 'superhero'. #scriptchat

May 22, 2011, 7:21 pm           



 
@alli_and_that: @sweettweenie @Mina_Zaher Perhaps it's when it's 'ordinary people' as opposed to 'spies' becoming 'super'. #scriptchat
