“Well, screenwriters did a hell of a lot for Stanley Kubrick’s career. They made that talent-free zone of a human being into a “cinematic genius.” Feh.”
I’m glad to see that someone actually agrees with my opinion. 
Since Kubrick wrote the screenplays for several of his films himself and was credited as screenwriter for most of the rest, the comment is just plain stupid.
Agreed. Oh, and he had more Oscar nominations as screenwriter than he did as director, not to mention more nominations from the WGA than from the DGA.
