I thought this was just going to be lighthearted joking about what can go wrong mixed with finger pointing... but it was incredibly heartfelt. I learned a lot and can see why he is a lauded teacher
@@TheRealDarrylStrawberry it’s relatable at least. Who wouldn’t take the money.., I’m sure most people would make a sequel to Battlefield Earth if they thought it meant they won’t have to suffer through working a regular job
This guy is awesome. I've never accepted the excuse that "well that's just how the industry works" and this dude just sealed that rejection. Just have integrity!
A beautiful subtlety here is how he is able to talk about something that caused great pain, still feel a measure of that pain in the telling, and not identify with the pain or let it own his life like it could have if he truly gave up. No, he instead upgraded his life in a bolder way, applying all that he learned, and became an ideal teacher in the field in the "process". What a testament to perseverance this is!
Corey's classes have changed my screenwriting life. Signing up was the best decision I ever made. I've changed my process and I'll come back here and let you know how I got on.
I wish I had that opportunity, I am in eastern Canada and am stuck writing a storyline. My wife seems able to just roll it out naturally and happily but for me, ... LOL
The hardest thing in life is to recover from hitting rock bottom. The ability to bounce back is the thing everyone ought to be taught since we're born.
He seems like such an honest, good-hearted guy. It's really strong of him to admit his own mistakes and weaknesses in leading up to taking the project.
Wow. I always love hearing about movie disasters but this is almost on another Shakesperean level, like I can't believe this actually happened just naturally in the world.
He's really good at distilling experiences down to the elements that make them universally relatable and understandable. Which is what writers do, ideally.
What an insightful understanding person. Even outside of screenwriting, this level of awareness and clarity about past events and the role you play in them, is astounding.
The lesson for me was to always listen to your instincs, to not compromise out of the fear rejection, to learn to say NO and to do what makes you happy! thank you Mr. Corey Mandell.
Thank you for sharing your story, and thank you to the interviewer for allowing you to talk largely uninterrupted. This is one of the best interviews that I have ever seen.
I took Corey's workshops and he didn't just help me become a better writer, but a better person as well. He's an amazing screenwriting instructor, but he could very well be a life coach.
Gotta tell you...I just went thru the same experience. 15 years at a miserable job where I made a ton of money. My wife finally put the brakes on when she saw me mentally and physically abused. If it wasn't for her, I'd probable die from exhaustion.....The most true thing he said is "you don't live forever" !!!

That was an amazing amount of self-actualization, realization, and humility. Feels like one of the most heartfelt interview responses I've seen. The funny thing is, I didn't really think the movie was that bad if I compare it to the book.
Stick to your ground, integrity and gut feeling....and have the other party sign a waiver if they happen to change the script to take your name off the credit so that you are not accountable for someone else changing your work. Much respect for being honest and vulnerable to the world. Thank you. Great writers tend to take great risk of vulnerability.
i just started listening to this guy a week ago, and i was wondering "this guy knows his stuff. why is the only script he's credited on battlefield earth??". didnt think i'd get such a wise, deep and nuanced answer to that question
Major props to Corey for taking the best perspective on this situation. Owning it, not being afraid of it, but also not letting it keep him down. Great stuff.
While absolutely a bad movie, I found it no worse than hundreds of others that I've watched, and yes any time I catch it on I watch it through to the end. Because I love Rebellion against evil as a moral to any movie.
typically its not the greatest movie, but I do actually enjoy the dutch angles and usually people have this idea that if a movie flopped at the box office, that it just wasn't good and it will never be good, it would have been nice if they adapted the book into 3 separate movies, make the first movie just entirely awesome and if it still flops, you will have a small community of fans who still mourn for the sequels
Really outstanding interview. This is valuable even if you don't care about movies, screenwriting, or BFE. A great statement about teaching, integrity, purpose, and reflection.
I've had some mental experiences in the business. Haven't we all? I remember watching this video at the time of my deepest struggles and I have to credit this with giving me perspective that allowed me to recover and keep going. Watching it again I can see why... it's hilarious, humbling, educating, sad and ultimately extremely hopeful. I love it. Thanks to everyone involved whom got this on TH-cam.
Very enjoyable to see someone be real real, and own their mistakes and not try and pass the blame, as everyone there tends to do. We've all taken jobs that the voice in the back of our head says no to, I did and lost 10 years of my life. All I do is look back on it and say, remember and learn.
Thanks for the comment Dan. We loved this one as well. We weren't sure if Corey would talk about Battlefield Earth, it was awesome to see how open he was about it.
@@filmcourage I love hearing interviews like this about writers on failed movies, especially redemptive in nature. So much to take away! Love the channel!
Our next video with Corey will probably be his story of pitching Ridley Scott as a 23 / 24 year old screenwriter. Incredible story, excited to share it.
A lot of truth here. We've all taken jobs because we were scared and worried we won't get the next offer, taking a crap job because they said yes... that got me two years of dead end misery at a call center...
Incredibly moving, riveting real-life back story, industry insight, tremendous personal courage, and poignant honesty from Corey Mandell. Thank you so much to Corey, and and thank you so much to Karen for creating the space for this incredible conversation.
Yep, Patrice had the opposite experience. Freedom but just also just out of the '"Mega-Success" club because of his stubbornness and principles (refusal to change or conform). He did it the right way (and suffered those "almost-there" frustrations time after time) but I think if he would have lived just a few years more he would have found "success" on his terms. RIP Patrice O'Neal...
Fascinating and insightful talk. As an aspiring, frustrated screenwriter, I get a lot out of this. And I LOVE that he reflects on the bigger spiritual questions - it's so easy to get caught up in Hollywood success, but we need to back up and look at our lives and what has real meaning and lasting impact. Years ago I got his first draft script for Battlefield Earth. I always liked the movie for its unmitigated B-grade campy fun. His script is basically the film, so I don't understand why he felt so bad about the final product. Sure, maybe it was because Travolta chose to play the bad guy. But as far as content, dialogue, etc., it's all in his script. Maybe he hates the dutch angles.
Great story! Everyone deserves a second chance. As soon as you sell the script it's out of your hands. You can only hope it ends up in the right hands.
Great movie battlefield earth. One of my go to favorites. I mean where else can i watch cavemen flying harriers after 6-10 days off flight simulations? Fugging great flick mang.
Wow. Just, wow. This was truly beautiful. I can only hope to learn who I am for all of my experiences like he has. I could really see the pain he suffered through by the way he spoke of it. Amazing story.
there's many people working in Hollywood who don't make the final credit list of a movie (or TV). I know storyboard artists who've worked on dozens of movies where they aren't credited. Many writers do a polish or rewrite on scripts where they aren't listed in the credits. Or being paid to write a script that doesn't get made. Also you have to submit to IMDB to keep your IMDB up to date - many forget or don't bother or don't care.
I don’t know why but Coreys message really resonated with me. Perhaps because I feel like I have spent my whole entire life making fear based decisions. This includes what I studied at University and the career I have subsequently spent my life pursuing. What I got from this interview is that life is too short to spend pleasing others and making safe choices. Somehow watching this interview really brought that home for me. Thanks Corey and thank you to whoever put this video on TH-cam!
This guy is the only person who came out on top on the worst movie ever made. A studio paid him money to write a film and then dropped the movie, that's a win in my book.
@@jesaispasvraimentquoiecrireici Yea... he should write a film about writing the film. Like The Disaster Artist. This whole discussion could easily make a great movie.
I watched this movie on Netflix recently, i remember watching the trailer when i was a kid and always wanted to see it.... What a disastrous movie, like a sci fi equivalent to 'The Room' . What a collosal waste of acting talent and money. The editing, graphics , dialogues everything feels so amature .... and unintentionally funny. I can feel for this guy... relatable.
chain of events from hell...wow...what a nightmare for Mandel! love him, he's so sincere telling us the importance of integrity at all times and trusting ones own intuition...
so much WOW! I'm unable to properly comment because I'm just so blown away. I have to learn more about Corey and his teaching, etc. THANK YOU FILM COURAGE!!! ANOTHER INCREDIBLE, INSIGHTFUL, BRILLIANT INTERVIEW!
Great to see your reaction! We were very fortunate that Corey gave us extended time. Believe we have over 3 hours on the timeline. The entire interview is top notch. Excited to share more.

I appreciate his honesty. It’s inspiring to know your biggest failure can make your life completely better.
This dude seems like the most sincere and down to earth dude in Hollywood....I hope he can still work on projects that are deserving of his skills
This is how to conduct an interview with someone like this. Ask one question of the extraordinary storyteller and just let him speak.
100% good lord so many interviewers make it all about themselves, or they consistently interrupt

Well you can learn more from your mistakes then from your successes.
And I’m sure that Battlefield Earth left a lot of lessons to be learned.
He learned so much, he was able to become a professor. That's one successful epic fail.
To be a good teacher, one needs to be foremost a good person, emotional, compassionate and generous. Corey I am sure is all that.
I'm just a little embarrassed to admit that I loved this movie; it was fun
