"I just love great journalism, where the writer really captures the essence," Brett Ratner tells Movieline today. "There are very few people out there doing this kind of work now. I think Scott Foundas is one of those guys." Hmmm. Scott Foundas, the same L.A. Weekly writer who threw collective wisdom to the wind and actually typed this sentence in a 2007 profile: "Brett Ratner is a talented filmmaker who deserves to be taken seriously"? Yes, that Scott Foundas. [Movieline]
