Great post with an excellent movie idea! And as The Passion of the Christ showed, even without major studio backing or promotion, you can make a movie out of a story like this and have it become a worldwide blockbuster!

Truly outstanding. Well done.

Indeed, we will win, no matter how this turns out for us individually. Evil has stolen a march on us, but we are awake now and ready to fight for Truth. A merry and blessed Christmas to you.

Dude, that story is SOOOOO Hollywood. I can't count the number of music and film/tv execs that I either pitched my music to or had to work under their narcissistic reign.

I worked for two brothers at their Warner Bros. sub-label in the mid-90s. They asked me to edit a recording contract for a Canadian band. I actually read the entire thing. I mean, I kinda *had to* in order to do a true edit. They came back from their typical 2 1/2 hour lunch, saw me reading it, and told me to stop immediately. I said, "But you asked me to edit this document. How can I do that properly without reading it?" They got angry and told me to "just edit it." That's when I started learning about how these deals are really putting the band in indentured servitude. Phrases like "recoupable costs" woke me up to the complete commoditization of "art" and enslavement of the "artists."

At a film production company in Beverly Hills, the Napoleonesque V.P. did his damnedest to make me responsible for a film print deadline that I had zero control over. He was yelling at me six inches from my face. I looked him directly in the eyes and said loudly "Fuck OFF." He literally took three big steps backward and went immediately into his office and closed the doors for the rest of the day. After that, he was nice to me, offering to buy me lunch and whatnot. What a creep.

Merry Christmas to you and Dame Bisone. And yes, we will win.

Can I play the crazy occultist? I'll bring homebrew in lieu of frankincense. Me and my guitar might be worth having around by the time we start shooting scenes....

Brilliant. The poor bastard stepped in it enough times that it’s now on his beloved oxblood Berluti’s.

He didn’t know what hit him, bless his petty little self-consumed self. Thats going to afflict many in the next 36 months. Pity.
