<description><![CDATA[reminds of a recent abstrusegoose comic where the intellect blames the senses. 

Yes, execution is everything, but the starting point is an idea. then you get another idea about the first idea, on say, how would you go about implementing it. then at implementation stage, you get another idea about optimization...and so on !
its a like a pearl necklace...ideas are those pearls...and execution is the necklace !]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Since so many movies these days are ripped off, based-on or remakes, then, yes, Dilbert could work. It was already a show. I don't understand this criticism. 

But don't be so sure that *any* idea could work. How many times have they tried to make some film that went wrong, no matter who the director was?]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[The examples that you give are exceptions. They are ORIGINAL ideas, from people woh dared to do something new. The opposite from what you get from marketing research.

A good idea e.g. is to make Avatar 2.

I give you that the execution is more important then the idea. You could probably f*ck up Avatar 2 by bad execution, but you'ld have to be very bad.]]></description>

<link><![CDATA[http://dilbert.com/blog/entry/55462]]></link>
<description><![CDATA[I agree with those who say the concept &quot;A Dilbert movie&quot; is not a complete idea, but just the germ of an idea that does not give enough information to tell whether the final product will be worthwhile or not. However, Scott is also right. Even a highly successful book, which is a completely realized idea in its current form, may or may not survive the transition to film, depending on how well it is executed. If you are an avid reader, I'm certain you can think of at least one book or story that you enjoyed but was brutally murdered on film.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[@Jumper 23 - I second that thought strongly. 

@Scott - I have been a reader of your blog for quite a while now and have been a quiet participant. I had immense respect for you and have always found you to be extremely sensible and interesting. But this last post of yours has chipped off a significant chunk of my respect for you.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Go ahead and make a Dilbert movie, it could be fun.

Just watch out for the potholes hit by Tank Girl, The Mask, and other poorly done comic-to-real-person efforts.

And please, do not cast Philip Seymour Hoffman as Dilbert- or Lori Petty, for that matter.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[I have an idea but not much clue as to how to execute it. I'm interested in sharing that idea with other people in order to bounce off them and get it off the ground (if it's viable), but am afraid that if I share it with too many people, someone will steal it. What does society offer me by way of solution to this problem? Does it help me or harm me that the idea is presently worthless but that it could turn into something valuable with the right execution? How much of the profit from this idea should I be willing to give up in order for it to be executed well (if I need someone else to do so) - all of it? Almost all of it?]]></description>
