This week's interview comes from MakingOf, featuring Thomas Lennon and Robert Ben Garant, the comedy screenwriting duo behind NIGHT AT THE MUSEUM and BALLS OF FURY.
They talk about their great collaborative process, as well as 'being' a character and visualising actors in roles to ensure their voice matches. They also briefly discuss why some comedies fail - because the lead character is too funny.
Feel free to leave any opinions about collaborative writing in the comments section. Enjoy....

Personally, I think it's probably wise to ignore anything the writers of Night At The Museum and Balls Of Fury have to say! The former's funniest moments were ad libs from the cast and the latter was terrible and unfunny. Or maybe they'll write The Funniest Movie Ever next year, who knows...
