Is this individual not sufficiently covered at Barbra Streisand and Lesley Anne Warren? Can there be any further encyclopedia-worthy information?

He is notable enough to have his own article. JW 19:21, 19 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

You mean he's a big enough douchebag.

He has moved into Real Estate investing.

"Douch Bag" perhaps (do you have valid sources for that?), but certainly notable for having managed and produced several Streisand records and dozzens of "B" movies. Proxy User (talk) 20:28, 2 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    • There has GOT to be more information on this guy out there - for all the crap (deservedly) heaped on him for the 'Superman Lives!' nonsense (thanks, Kevin, top story...), surely there's more to tell. The guy IS listed as exec producer on 'Superman Returns', he must be doing something right. And lets be honest, he's done his fair share of flicks and apparently he was on set pretty perminantly on 'Batman', that was 'his baby'. I'm going to look into this and get back to it when I've got time... Thumbsucker-UK, 28 July 2006
      • There actually is quite a bit of info on the man. I used to have a book that described his and Peter Guber's rise in Hollywood, and how they managed to bilk Sony (via Columbia Pictures) out of a heap of money. It had a complete and rather detailed biography of his early and professional life. Can't remember the name of the book, though. Shostie (talk) 17:25, 9 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Devoting half his article on such a trivial topic such as proposing a spider in the superman script is ridiculous. I'm taking it out, and will continue to do so, Its not encyclopedic and deserves a brief mention at best.

        • The book to which Shostie refers is listed in the endnotes, note 6 (I think), namely, 'Hit and Run'; it is the best source I know for the life of Peters. Incidentally, Peters is worthy of note, not only for 'Batman', but also for his work with Streisand on 'A Star is Born' and his bizarre, aggressive character.

  • Who are you? I found the anecdote to be illustrative and interesting. If you don't like it, revise it or find something better to show that Peters is seen as irrational and a poor producer by many. You can't delete information when there's a dearth of information; you haven't fixed a thing. 67.175.167.28 15:57, 3 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
