$1 million for Dodgeball writer's new screenplay

Wow! Dreamworks has paid $1 million for a screenplay from Rawson Marshall Thurber.

Who, you ask, is this lucky guy? His picture on imdb is kind of dorky.

Who is Raw? He's the guy who wrote the Ben Stiller movie, "Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story", a clunker that made a ton of money at the box office. Plus, he's well-connected. He used to be John August's assistant. John wrote "Go", "Charlie's Angels" and that other Charlie, "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory."

So what's a million dollar script about? They won't say but rumor has it that it's about anger management starring Ben Stiller (not Adam Sandler). Let's hope it's better than Dodgeball.
