    Most scripts in Hollywood are worth less than than the paper they’re printed on. And if you can separate the value from the slop, you’d make more money working for the industry than stealing from it.

      Adding to this that anyone worth pitching does everything they can to avoid contact with unsolicited scripts. When they want one they grab one they’ve already optioned or go with established pros. So if the mailroom guy is your worry, then you’re already out of the running. And the mailroom guy won’t have any better luck with it anyways.
