If you have read this blog long enough, you know that I love to hate Battlefield Earth. It is one of the worst movies ever created. It is a mixture of a kooky religion and a misguided star believing that could make a hit out of Scientology founder’s book.
Spoiler Alert: You can make sense of a book written by one of the craziest men in the world. It won’t make sense. From what Corey says, some Scientologist wrote the first draft. Given that those members aren’t allowed to change the word of L. Ron Hubbard, I guess the first writer tried to adopt the story straight from the novel. The Church of Stupidity decided to bring in Corey Mandell to fix the script.
J. D. Shapiro is the other writer listed as the other writer on this masterclass. Was Shapiro the writer that rewrote it back to its more book roots, as Corey claims? Shapiro claims responsibility for the movie. He always has for years now.
Keep in mind that the main villain has the power to shoot off the legs of cows.

Anyway, I hate this movie “with endless options for renewal”.
