The medium (movie) requires getting someone to spend millions on crew and actors to shoot your script
This is not necessarily any easier to achieve than writing a bestselling book, especially for a first-timer, and by the time the Hollywood accountants have finished calculating your share of the revenue, not necessarily any more lucrative.

- notahacker 6y agoThe first book you self-published or practically gave away to the publisher will be a book, if not a bestselling one. On the other hand the first movie script is vanishingly unlikely to get turned into a movie, and the fact you've written movie scripts that weren't developed won't help you get your next script taken more seriously.
