I love it when people "suss-out" the source material like
this! I know a
guy who wrote a sci-fi script, and he literally did a "beat
by beat"
reworking of the movie "Total Recall," just with different
premise.
(Script sold but didn't get made ... Yet.)
Or as they say, and I know we've all heard it before -- "Good
writers
borrow. Great writers steal."
Anyone else know some particularly good steals?
