Fund Idea: The "No Where But Down" Fund

Posted by: jickerson on Jan 24, 16:24

I had an idea for a new fund that I wanted to run by you guys. I emailed it in, but i'm sure they get a lot of emails and it got lost in the shuffle somewhere.

The premise of the fund is to invest in people who are linked to Blockbuster moves (via StarBonds and their future movies), but the catch is, you can only invest in them AFTER that movie becomes a huge success. What qualifies as a giant film can be up for debate (At least $175M domestic), as well as the amount of time that the person (and the movies they are attached to) is eligible to be in the fund after that first movie. It could either be lifetime eligibility or maybe the following 18 months? Thoughts?

Giant film = $250M+ and only can invest until the starbonds next adjust, unless it too is a 250M+. DTravel Jan 24, 16:52

This is a great idea, IMO. {nm} PRodQuanta Jan 25, 09:32

So you couldn't buy the star bonds attached to the movie until *after* their movie becomes a hit? Flash Jan 26, 07:32

Correct, the whole idea would be to invest in actors coming off a success, jickerson Jan 26, 07:42

But actors who get roles in big-budget tentpoles tend to get more such roles. DTravel Jan 26, 12:23

Not necessarily. KSTEW, RPATT, AGREE, and AKEND have all been in smaller films since the Twilight movies. JohnTEQP Jan 27, 11:02

For how long would it go? Look at KWINS and KKNIG...how the mighty have fallen with respect to TAG. EMCGR too. {nm} Buy BONDS 18 Jan 27, 13:17

Hopefully for at least 3 movies (or a fixed time frame, maybe 18 months) so there would be a little TAG/adjust movement {nm} jickerson Jan 27, 14:16

Oh, i think i just got what you meant by that question. Hopefully till it hits H$100M, or 1 year if thats more of the norm {nm} jickerson Jan 27, 14:34

As I said inside my post, many also alternate blockbusters with small indies. Still not the same as "on their way down and out". {nm} DTravel Jan 27, 13:42

i'm not saying "down and out". when i say "no where but down", i mean that their next movie has to be less than or equal to this movie jickerson Jan 27, 14:19
