>Oh you mean those “A list” writers who happen to get 30 percent on rotten tomatoes and then see their movies bomb? Lol.

A movie is never going to be better than its script, and there are 100 ways it can go wrong once the writer is done writing.

>Hollywood is a joke and I’ve made half-assed efforts of getting in and I will probably never get in because I simply don’t have the connections.

I knew nobody when I moved to L.A., but I eventually landed an assistant job at an A-list prodco by learning the ropes and using my charm and intelligence to make myself memorable.

Unfortunately I was not a good enough writer to break through, but that part was on me.

>Being sent rejection notices for unsolicited material makes me laugh and just reminds me the industry is all just a “rich boys club”.

Sending unsolicited material shows that you don't know a damn thing about how Hollywood actually works. Maybe you should learn, as a first step.

I know you didn't ask, but I'm gonna DM you my script. I think it would be perfect for Chris Pratt.
