I always thought of the following questions but i never had the chance to talk with any professional of the film industry (directors, producers, actors/actresses, script writters, etc.)
Question regarding script/scenario writters:
How does it really feels like when you guys wrote enormous-length scenarios for movies (like 200 and and even more pages, like an actual book) and the filthy rich producer(s) of the movie be like "yeah, **** that. I'm not gonna read all of that crap! Only thing i care for is money and audience/box office brings me more money so, since audience craves for scenes with sex, drugs, violence, guns, big loud explosions, etc. , let's cut the 80% of these and just keep the good stuff that audience wants! Do as i say because i'm the producer and i'm the big sponsor of this, i own you all!" , and then you kiss goodbye all the rest of your script/scenario and R.I.P. all your ideas? Does that make you feel like wanna make a Quentin Tarantino movie in which you will torture that rich pig (aka producer) to the death or are you like "I'm cool with that as long as i will get paid for my work" ?
Question regarding actors/actresses:
If the director wants you to always play the same clichè roles (i.e. if you are an untalented actress but you're pretty and he always asks you to be that hot blonde chick of most horror movies who is having sex and later gets hunted down by a serial killer and desperately screams, that's all the scenes the director offers you, sex and screaming, screaming and sex) , what can you do to avoid that in the future? Can you call to director's phone and be like "Hey there Mr. Big Shot, i just called you to let you know that i don't want to be a stereotype of movies any more, no more clichè roles, no more sex and screaming, how about you give me a role for once, that i can really develop and show to the audience what i'm really capable of!" ? Or you're ok with being a dumb blonde bimbo tropè for the rest of your career?
Question regarding directors:
Why are y'all producer's little bitches and always obey their commands? Don't you wanna make actually decent and thought-provoking movies? Is money and temporal fame/vanity all you really care of? (i'm talking about the 99% of you, no Darren ****ing Aronofsky, David Fincher or Lars von Trier)
Question regarding producers:
Where are you going to have fun and do all the messed up things you rich ass pigs always do, now that P. Diddy is arrested? No more having fun with young kids, no more orgies, no more cannibalistic occult-related ceremonies.

I'm no professional in the movie industry.
I only watch films.
While I may occasionally wonder why this or that actor/actress was cast in a particular role, or I may not care for the director, I don't let it upset me.
I have certainly never considered Alfred Hitchcock to be anyone's little bitch!
You seem rather agitated. You take this movie business far too seriously.
Lighten up. It's called entertainment.
You asked a pretty question; I've given you the ugly answer.

Obviously. Making money is always good for business. That is basically what it's about, and if all involved are good at their jobs, we the people who fork over the money are entertained.

Thanks for agreeing with me about how much of capitalistic ***** they are.
Is that what I did?
I DON'T THINK SO!
I'm beginning to think that I couldn't possibly agree with much of anything you have to say.
You come off as just a bit too weird.

Cheers!
I've seen this one around in the past week.
I had my doubt about the sanity.

I only wish I knew what that last part means!
Then again, I can live with the mystery.
