Written and directed by Robert Rodriguez, Spy Kids follows two kids who must locate their missing parents, who also happen to be the world's greatest spies. Antonio Banderas and Carla Gugino star as the parents in the action-comedy while Alan Cumming plays the villian. Spy Kids is produced by Miramax's Dimension Films, which is moving beyond its horror genre staple.
Options are short term investment opportunities based around a specific event. Typically options are released opening weekend of a particular MovieStock. This form of speculation takes the form of "calls" and "puts" and last only for opening weekend.
Call
A call option is the opposite of a put option. A call speculates that the related MovieStock will have a higher box office take for its opening weekend than the strike price. A $20 call has a strike price of $20, and will delist at zero if the movie does not make $20 million or more during opening weekend. If the film makes more than $20 million it will cash out at a price determined by the following formula: (Actual Box Office - Strike Price). For Example if the film made $25 million the call would cash out at H$5.00 (H$25 - H$20).
