1. Failure to make movies that people actually want to see.
2. Agents and producers who aren't willing to use (or learn) email and the internet.
3. Lack of creativity: part III in 3D,based on the comic book of the sitcom, and coming soon as a graphic novel.

Robert and I are working together on a couple of projects, and what I have found is that he is exceptionally masterful at his craft. Not only does he have a keen eye for the academic and structural aspects of screenwiting, but he just plain knows how to make the great story even better. If you have been lucky enough to where your script has caught his eye, you can be certain that you have one of the industry's best on your side.

Robert is a highly skilled and connected Producer with a keen eye for a great "story". He is very professional, timely, and knowledgeable which has been a tremendous asset to our team of Producers and the current project we have in development. We look forward to a long and prosperous working relationship with Robert.
