Culture: “Battlefield Earth” scribe apologizes for writing worst movie ever

  • OK dude, but that still doesn’t get us our refund! In today’s New York Post, J.D. Shapiro apologizes for the mess of a movie that is Battlefield Earth (a.k.a. Travolta’s Waterloo). He notes that he had written it in a different way than it had been portrayed (with Travolta calling it, we spit you not, “The Schindler’s List of sci-fi”), but many changes were forced upon the film due to John Travolta’s influence. (Apparently L. Ron Hubbard kept a lot of notes.) In other news, Scientology is a cult. source
