Neil Gaiman has done an in-depth interview with Rolling Stone where he talks about the difficult and sometimes underhanded process of getting the adaption made to his specifications. He said he spent 30 years fighting bad versions of the book.
In 1996, Roger Avary was supposed to direct an adaption, but it didn't come to fruition. Avary was inspired by Jan vankmajer's Alice and wanted to make a live-action and mixed-animation production. Warner Movies had a screening of vankmajer's Alice. His parking space name was painted over after he was fired from the project. They thought this was crazy. Get rid of him This is not popular. This might be considered an accident.
He was the architect of the sabotage that he witnessed. In the late 1990s, Jon Peters produced an "infamous" script that featured Dream, Lucifer, and the Corinthian as triplets trying to find Dream's tools before the millennium. He said that he read as much of the script as possible. He admitted when the producers asked if he had a chance to review the script that he was not as nice as he wanted to be. He was told there was nothing he liked in there. I didn't like anything in that place. I have never read a script like that before. The worst script is not the only one. I have never received a script like that.
Ain't It Cool News was used to try to prevent Peters's script from being made. I wondered what Ain't It Cool News would think of the script that was going to be anonymous. They wrote a great article about how bad it was. There was a chance that the film would happen. The man turned his attention to Wild Wild West. A bullet escaped.
