"Net Points" = monkey points (but only in the sense that everyone knows the accounting system is a fraud on the payees going in)

Posted by: cake boss! (a.k.a mickpix) on Nov 17, 21:10 in response to Moviesnob's post could be right but 5% of ‘Net Proceeds.’...

like, it's worth litigating because eventually some judge is going to pierce the veil and call it out for what it is

DL: Bohemian Rhapsody screenwriter Anthony McCarten sues for his 5%. Hollywood accounting has $911M grosser in the red to $51M. Antibody Nov 17, 20:16

could be right but 5% of ‘Net Proceeds.’ means after film rental, after distribution fees and after all costs (including an awards campaign) Moviesnob Nov 17, 20:20

Another Dummy falls for the Stroke-The-Weasel Option, 50% of Net Proceeds almost always being 100% of SFA (S=SWEET, A=ALL). {nm} Captain Obvious Nov 17, 21:02

not always, but once an awards campaign is involved, everything gets buried in there {nm} Moviesnob Nov 17, 21:14
