So instead of Jay and the Lizards, they gave the credit for our work to some hack named John O'Brien who wrote a jokeless, vanilla version of a script before we all got involved.

Anyway, despite the screwjob, everyone should check it out on Aug. 5th. Jay did a great job and I'm sure you'll recognize our stink on the flick... not to mention one or two familiar faces.

I figured it would have had to been something like that. The two guys credited are one who wrote for the tv show and the other who has written a few tv to movie translations.
