Playing & Trading Strategy

But actors who get roles in big-budget tentpoles tend to get more such roles.

Its not uncommon for actors and especially directors to go from one 250+M project directly to another or (more for actors here) to alternate such projects with small limited release indies.  Those situations hardly fit your "coming down from success" theme.  Especially in this period of mega-budget franchises (Harry Potter, Twilight, etc.)

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

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

Just because a Starbond has just adjusted for a 250+M movie does not mean their next adjust has to be down. DTravel Jan 27, 22:44
