So this GASP pitch that Par just bought... it's SEA OF LIFE with the gender reversal in the roles. So why not mention that movie?
-
So KRAMPUS is rated PG-13... I'm thinking that had something to do with the R-rated CRIMSON PEAK failing and the PG GOOSEBUMPS doing pretty well...

Why shoot film if your movie is set to premiere on HBO anyway? And at the cost of TWO shooting days...?

this is interesting. i heard in an interview with producer joel silver that effects shot cost $80,000, say for speed racer. multiply that by 2,000 fx shots and there's your budget. the numbers sound a little fuzzy but it gives you an idea how money will just explode from the studios when working on the bigger ones.

The film vs. digital debate is all just a manufactured throughline for the show. There is a difference between the two, but it's isn't something Jason hasn't dealt with before. He had the same issue with his short (that got him into the finals) and there, he shot... DIGITAL... to save money. The whole eFilm / Fotokem grading sessions story beats are nonsense to add drama. He's already clearly aware of the tradeoffs of each choice.

So in the new STAR WARS trailer, why does Luke say "My father HAS it..." implying Vader is still alive?

so will the new trend be to put "American" in the title of every spec going out?

I'm curious how an unrepped writer got his stuff into producers and studios... any know more?
-
I assume this is in regards to Override? If so, it was a friend of his who slipped it to development person, who went up ladder, and first look deal went from there. It's the hottest spec of 2015, partially built on the wow factor of it being an unrepped writer who is creating a ton of buzz, and is now taking meetings all over town. But, I'm sure as you read, you saw he's now repped with managers and will prob select agents by tmrw.
