He has little talent, how did he get a job anyway?

I would like Ben to know this fact, if things went down in big & bad way, SHTF, Ben's sole purpose at that point would be to provide food. Ask yourself Ben, what value would you have in a deconstructed modern society? You would have value as a source of protein.

Not for me. Maybe for Matt Damon.

Bunny A. Fleck and Matt Damien made their name with a movie they “wrote” called Good Will Hunting. “Amazing” film out of the gate (I wouldn't know, I've never seen it).

Of course, Jack Nicholson used to be quite the screen writer, something he DOESN'T want Hollywood to know these days.

How plausible is it that the old guard wrote one more film?

Certainly the “geniuses” behind it moved on to make formula genre franchise films rather than “dramatic art”.

Maybe they never had the talent in the first place but they were willing to play ball.
