Movies

Translation....

Posted by: RazorHawk on Feb 04, 17:42 in response to ingenious' post Understood. You yourself suggested a Fox connection back...

last september a 20,000 Leagues Under The Sea was written by Bryan Singer and people were assuming that it was set up at FOX (since he had done some recent projects for them).  At the end of the tagged September thread, Variety posted that his script was not attached to any studio.

a dude had a script.  lots of dudes in hollywod have scripts that they want to make into a movie.  no second moviestock was IPOed because it was just a dude with a script.  HSX did change the title of 20LUS to '20,000 Leagues Under The Sea - Disney' so players would know that that stock was meant for the Brad Pitt Disney project.

the script just got picked up and given a green light yesterday.  HSX does not like issuing moviestock IPOs unless there is some kind of foreward movement happening on a project (cast announced; director announced; release date announced; project greenlit; writers hired; etc...).  now that this project was greenlit yesterday, has a finished script; has a director... it should get a '20,000 Leagues Under The Sea - FOX' moviestock IPO sometime soon.

That inquiry shouldn't have been tagged. {nm} RollingThunder Feb 04, 13:02

20LUS is Disney; this was already posted today: 20LUS is not FOX {nm} RazorHawk Feb 04, 12:58

BSING mentioned doing this movie for Fox back in September and it was also tagged... so they should have IPO'ed the new movie... diamondman56 Feb 04, 13:05

go back and actually read the thread from Sept {nm} RazorHawk Feb 04, 13:13

The thread from September mentions a new stock would be IPO'ed for the Fox/Singer production... ingenious Feb 04, 14:54

It was only announced LAST NIGHT. {nm} Antibody Feb 04, 15:20

Understood. You yourself suggested a Fox connection back in September though. {nm} ingenious Feb 04, 17:06

and if Disney had somehow outbid Fox, then there would have been no need for a second IPO. {nm} Antibody Feb 04, 17:45

All I did was pose the question - was further confirmation required to create the stock? A simple "yes" would have sufficed. {nm} ingenious Feb 04, 20:06

Never complain about extra information ;) {nm} Roger More Feb 05, 07:45

CB: "This Is How Disney Sunk David Fincher's 20,000 Leagues Under The Sea" petrusbird Feb 19, 08:02

This seems to be a source of chronic confusion on here. {nm} RollingThunder Feb 04, 12:59
