BE Ellis tweeted insider info on [50SHD]; budget below $15M and casting rumor Antibody Sep 05, 11:02

15 mil aint much: cast of unknowns? {nm} Oleg Max Sep 05, 11:04

The leads for Harry Potter and the male Twilight leads were unknowns. {nm} Antibody Sep 05, 11:07

James Deen..The porn guy from The Canyons? {nm} dioneta Sep 05, 11:09

They should try and get a reputable actor...Otherwise it will just be a Skinamax movie {nm} dioneta Sep 05, 11:10

Have you read the books? Skinamax movies have better plots and are more interesting. {nm} BSmurf Sep 05, 11:20

Hmmm, maybe BEE is just bringing attention to CNYON. {nm} Antibody Sep 05, 11:12

was their budget miniscule 12-15 mill? Twilight budget was 37mill per BOM... {nm} Oleg Max Sep 05, 11:18

50SHD doesn't require special effects. {nm} Antibody Sep 05, 11:23

I know, it just seems rather too thrifty on the part of the studio. I guess they are trying to get as high ROI as possible. {nm} Oleg Max Sep 05, 11:27

The budget for Shame starring MFASS was $6.5M. {nm} Antibody Sep 05, 11:30

and look how much money it brought back... :) {nm} Oleg Max Sep 05, 11:37

BEE is a failed screenwriter, but a master media manipulator. He was never gonna write 50 Shades. He just wanted people to namedrop Canyons {nm} tawdryhepburn Sep 05, 11:18

+1 He's not involved and was not on the shortlist last time I read. It's just self-promotion {nm} numbersix_99 Sep 05, 14:42
