Steven Spielberg Taps Carrie Fisher, Brett Ratner, Garry Marshall and Jon Avnet as Judges for On the Lot
Carrie Fisher, Brett Ratner, Garry Marshall and Jon Avnet will serve as judges on the first round of On the Lot, which debuts May 22 (behind American Idol), and continues on May 24.
The show will start with a group of 50 applicants, who are sent to Los Angeles to attend a "Hollywood Boot Camp." They'll meet with the four judges and screen their personal submission film; as well as pitch their project; show and edit a short film within 24 hours; and then shoot a one-page scene within an hour.
The judges then will select the top 18 finalists, who will move on to the first "film premiere" episode May 28.
Spielberg and Burnett created and executive produce On the Lot, which is offering a $1 million DreamWorks development deal to its winner.

Ratner and Fisher... hmmm. Say what you will about them both, but it's still interesting enough to make me want to watch.

Brett Ratner is going to help choose America's next filmmaker? That's just what the industry needs is another mediocre hack of director. I'm surprised that the great Spielberg didn't aim higher on this decision.
