Support your Screenwriters

Every movie you've ever seen has someone behind the scenes, the person that made the movie possible. Some of them you've heard of like David Crane, the writer and a producer of the show "Friends" which started in 1994. We also have Jennifer Michelle, the writer of Frozen and its sequel, the first movie earning her an Academy Award for Best Animated Feature. Yet, even with these two writers, typically their names aren't in big bold letters in the credits like the cast, supporting cast, and producers. In some cases, this is wrong, I know, especially with animated films. Yes, the screenwriter is in the credits, but I feel they should be one of the first few names on it, even if most people don't stay until the end. For screenwriters, I feel like it would make them happier to be up higher, though this is also personal opinion, however they deserve it, much like the rest who made it happen.
