If you had mentioned the film to DMac before it opened in one theater, it would be on the exchange. I blame traders asking why it is missing

Again, if the movie didn't perform there would not be a word more about it than what was said in the weeks before its 7/13 premiere in TX.

Plenty of stocks that don't perform or don't even report. Problem is no one knew about the film until AFTER it opened. No bonds affected
Catzan
Aug 26, 13:12
means it is even lower under the radar. When folks learn of a project, they should email HSX so they are at least aware of project.

OBEFC IPO'ed the same day that this breakout was released. Traders knew, but 2016 at that time was kind of classified as a fringe film. And,

And there are two bonds affected by "..Effect". Bonds are an integral part of the game if not a part of the "prediction" half.
Catzan
Aug 26, 13:26
as we know, fringe films financed in the midwest don't get much attention unless they pop in the big cities (NY, LA, y'know, the usual).
{nm}

Aug 26, 13:22
I agree with you Catzan, but I believe traders knew but, the perception was that it would screen and then fall off the radar as these fringe
eallensbp
Aug 26, 13:25
Hermano...that would say that not every small pic gets picked up on HSX. No bond implications. =)
Catzan
Aug 26, 13:30
Exactly, and no one is talking how there's a conspiracy against Latinos or Mexicans or somesuch ridiculousness because of that.

This request has fallen on deaf ears. Move on or risk being banned.

Well, DMac did hear the request, he replied that there was no reasonable way to price the IPO to conform to the purposes of the game.
Catzan
Aug 26, 13:31
10 dollars as iPo for Obama 2016

Not realistic. Is that how much the movie will make? Are you sure? So, everyone saw it this weekend? Movie has already made 9m.
Catzan
Aug 26, 13:37
He could make BW warrant to appease whiners but this hardly classifies as a B.

Banned from what and by whom? Precisely where in the HSX Rules is this outlined.

Here's a link to the Code of Conduct. It includes "don't post the same message repeatedly". Offenders can be scribbled, or banned outright

Aug 26, 13:41
Thanks Roger. Pretty much a basic rule on any forum.

Aug 26, 13:46
"Do not post the same message repeatedly (a.k.a. spamming)." This hardly qualifies as spam. ;-)
elchan
Aug 26, 13:47
I'm just responding to the request for the rule to be posted - not commenting on how it's implemented.

There is no "Hollywood Industrial complex". Stop spreading misinformation for your own personal entertainment
Moviesnob
Aug 26, 14:01
I'm not American, but can you deny that most of the entertainment industry is biased towards the Democrats and against Republicans?
{nm}
elchan
Aug 26, 14:26
thats different than implying there's some shadow relationship between hollywood's corporations and the liberal government
Moviesnob
Aug 26, 14:37
I must disagree. The studio system is in fact an 'industrial complex'. It churns out movies, like the military industrial complex.
elchan
Aug 26, 15:09
All moviegoers are Democrats? Our industry has to appeal to everyone in order to survive. The military industry need only appeal to hawks.
Catzan
Aug 26, 15:20
well...maybe not everyone but to a broad base. =)
Catzan
Aug 26, 15:21
thats barely true, and then they dont have a shared political agenda. Some studios arent even US corporations
{nm}
Moviesnob
Aug 26, 15:24
and its certainly not a "complex" the way Eisenhower used that phrase to describe the relationship between the public and private military

"It's quite evident", he said, citing no evidence.

Is this where I fall back and cry, "McCarthyism!!!" ;-)
Catzan
Aug 26, 15:47
When, "it's quite evident", usually not specific source is quoted, otherwise one becomes redundant.

Military Industrial Complex doesn't refer to individuals...the equivalent would be studios, not actors...at least to my thinking.
Catzan
Aug 26, 17:09
Industrial complexes are headed by their leaders. In the movie industry, actors like George Clooney would be considered a leader.

"Quite Evident" to one person may not be so to others - that's why you explain / site sources so everyone is on the same page

It's evident that Hollywood leans left. It's not evident what impact that has on American policy-making. It's not evident how that leads to

Aug 26, 19:09
This also implies that HSX has anything to do with Hollywood.

Antibody has given an answer on the request. His answer should be honored.

Aug 26, 13:48
Antibody (DMac as some know him) is the moderator of the boards. He would ban someone. If he posts to stop, one should.
Catzan
Aug 26, 13:45
People have been banned for less. The community has been more than patient with these needless requests to IPO 2016. It will not happen.

Code Of Conduct is not part of the HSX Rules - it is simply a guideline posted by an HSX member.

No, but it is a basic rule. This issue has already been decided, and no amount of badgering or annoying will change it.
eallensbp
Aug 26, 14:39
Sure they are. Even though they are no longer published on the site, they still apply.
{nm}
RogerMore
Aug 26, 14:59
I think any forum should have those rules. They're so common sense, kind of like saying "Please" & "Thank You" & "Excuse Me". Simple stuff.
