Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer
Jason Friedberg (born in Newark, New Jersey, United States) and Aaron Seltzer (born in Mississauga, Ontario, Canada) are a film director and screenwriter team known for making spoof movies that have generally received very unfavorable reviews, but have done well in the box office. They were part of the writing team for ''Scary Movie'' and ''Spy Hard''. They have also written and directed films such as ''Date Movie'', ''Epic Movie'', ''Meet the Spartans'', ''Disaster Movie'', ''Vampires Suck'' and ''The Starving Games''.
==Biography==
Seltzer is part of a Canadian shoe salesmen family from Mississauga, Ontario, and Friedberg who was born in Newark, NJ, was raised in Paterson, New Jersey and is the son of director Rick Friedberg. Seltzer and Friedberg met at the University of California, Santa Barbara and bonded over their love of film, especially comedy. They did not attend film school, with Seltzer majoring in art history and Friedberg in history, but decided to try a career in the film industry after attending a class about Martin Scorsese in their last semester.〔 While writing screenplays at night, both spent the day attending jobs to pay their tuition, selling homemade T-shirts, started their own food delivery service, and opening shoe shops in Los Angeles. As Rick Friedberg made the video ''Bad Golf Made Easier'' with Leslie Nielsen, he showed his son's script for a spy film spoof. Nielsen approved, and this lead into 1996's ''Spy Hard''. Seltzer and Friedberg then spent some years as screenwriters for hire, with Seltzer estimating the duo sold "upward of 40 scripts". The only finished project was an uncredited rewrite to the Jean-Claude Van Damme film ''Maximum Risk'' (1996), while an unproduced Liberace biopic introduced them to producer Peter Safran. In 1998, Safran managed to sell to Dimension Pictures a horror film spoof spec script of Seltzer and Friedberg named ''Scream If You Know What I Did Last Halloween'', later reworked by four other writers under the title ''Scary Movie''. The film was a sleeper hit in 2000, and brought much attention to Seltzer and Friedberg. Tired of many unmade projects, as Regency Enterprises could not find a director for their romantic comedy spoof, Seltzer and Friedberg opted to direct ''Date Movie'' (2006) themselves.〔
