Click Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 So apparently this guy put a short film he made up on youtube and a few days later his email was flooded with offers from Hollywood to purchase the rights. I think it is a really cool little clip, but 30 million for four minutes? Here's the story: http://movies.yahoo.com/feature/buzzlog-uruguay-to-hollywood.html What do you guys think? Makes me want to make a crazy ass 4 minute video of shit blowing up and rake in 30 mil, cha ching! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Codename067 Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 I'm happy for him. I don't have the eye of those Hollywood big shots. I am sure a lot of people saw a lot of potential from this clip, hence the full inbox from Hollywood. They pay the guy $30 mil now, they will make $300 tomorrow. These guys are too smart.

SimplexCoda Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 Well, since im at work i cant watch this video. But, this is the business im learning all about. THis sort of thing happens more than people think. Its not typically for a 4 minute video, but more like an hour worth of script. But im glad the guy got it. The true test is did this guy put all of his vision and heart into a single idea, or does he have bigger and better things left? As for the music. People in hollywood steal other people's crap all the time. Esp music. I dont see why they would complain about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rhineholt Posted December 19, 2009 Share Posted December 19, 2009 The special effects were pretty sweet. But like joytron said, I don't want another war of the worlds kinda thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff_T Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 I watched it all and it was ok. Looked well done for $300, but like others have said to similar to War of the Worlds, Cloverfield for me. That music is awesome because it was in 28 Days Later, but using it in anything else doesn't work IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vladimir Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 To be fair there is still not a high probability this will actually become a movie. Studios pay big bucks all the time for movie rights just to have them in their bank, and away from competitors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
