Producer to John: Wh-Wh-Where's Our Money?

Posted Apr 1st 2008 5:45PM by TMZ Staff

Some producer claims that "Stuttering" John Melendez bilked him out of a producing fee for John's latest flick, something called "One, Two, Many." Stop right there: Stuttering John is starring in a movie? A talkie?

Ed Meyer says John owes him $800K for helping him to get the movie produced. John's lawyer, Leonard Sclafani, tells TMZ that the dude is jumping on the Stuttering John bandwagon, as the movie comes out this month. And how much does Meyer think John will command at the B.O.?

16. John is probably in on this to generate talk about his POS movie. He knows Howard will talk about it - especially since it's on TMZ, which will just give it even more attention. If the lawsuit gets dropped then that will prove my theory.

17. Howard was the one who made what John did Funny. Who do You think wrote the Questions for him to ask Celebs? Either way, there isn't a single funny cell in his Studdering Head.. and I would think that He would need Howard a Great Deal more than Howard would Need Him! :P

18. Howard and his crew know you're a cheap-ass moron. Now the whole world will know how miserly you are. Leno made the worst mistake oif his life by hiring a no-talent hack like you. You have humiliated Jay and NBC. I heard you are so lame that Leno has you pre-tape the Opening Guest Announcements for the Tonight Show because you screwed up constantly. Now you're relegated to smirking and saluting with a coffee cup. Save your money John - I see no future for you after Leno leaves the Tonight and Conan moves in. Is it true your movie goes to DVD after a one week release to theatres?

19. This guy says Johns owes him $800,000 for the movie, thats insane... I worked on the film, the budget for the film was like $500,000. I know John he is a great guy. Its all nonsense. Best of luck to you John. Unlike all the haters, I wish you much success on the film, and all your future endeavors.

21. Would somebody please tell what John's responsibilities are on Jay Leno's show! He does'nt seem to do anything, at least not while the Show is in progess. Maybe before the Show?? Wonder how much does he gets paid??? I would'nt mind a job like his!!!!!! Lucky him...

22. This lawsuit is for real. I was there when it was all discussed. Caron Feldman was my manager also until I found out about her shaky background and past. Meyer spoke with both John and Caron and they agreed to everything posted and when Meyer delivered, they double-crossed him and went solo. If TMZ does some digging about Feldman, they will find out some very interesting things. http://www.something-fishy.org/words/caron.php just to start. That would be a story the WORLD should read that she is a talent agent in Hollywood.

23. As I remember John never had any scratch on Howard's show. Jackie drove him to work and he would hit up the interns for lunch & snacks. Remember the room service bill when the show went to LA? Yeah, I think he would F somebody if he had the chance.
