Thanks for the follow Mini. I use twit because I don't really get Twitter. It seems the only time I hear about it is when someone tweeted something that got them in trouble.
[Polk demands $6.5 million for "oppression, fraud and malice" from the defendants' false promises that he would "be compensated and credited as producer."]
Note to Stephen Polk:
Going forward, you have to insist on pay-or-play. The time you wasted on AS-I could have been spent pursuing other profitable filmmaking or acting projects.
Aglialoro and Kaslow exploited your talents and monetized your contributions to Part I and you, apparently, got nothing for your hard work.
Rand, Galt, Rearden, and D'Anconia frown.
Sounds like the old "Hollywood Shuffle": get 'em stoked about working on a cool project; get 'em to contribute their time and energy by rewriting scripts, scouting locations, working on budgets and production schedules . . . then fire 'em and use some or all of their contributions without paying them anything.
Ancient? This is 2013 and the suit was brought in 2011. Hardly ancient if you know anything about law suits — especially law suits in the entertainment industry. Apparently you don't know a thing.
[and was fully settled years ago.]
Really? How wonderful! I'm so happy! Hey, why don't you post a link or something with evidence proving that it was indeed settled? Odd that there's nothing online about any sort of settlement of a $6.5M lawsuit in Hollywood . . . you know how those Hollywood types just LOVE to gossip!
Ummm... that suit is ANCIENT and was fully settled years ago.
RE: "The hubbub had to do with whether the producers had legitimate funding needs for their movie, or whether they were looking for a way to make extra cash for themselves despite the movie already being fully funded." Where exactly is all this "hubbub" that you refer to?
RE: "Many are wondering if some of the financing collected via Kickstarter might have to do with current or expected legal fees regarding this litigation." Do tell. Who are these "many" and where are they "wondering?"
balderdash! the suit may be happening, but many of us sat in on discussions for marketing the final movie. Kickstarter was brought up by fans. Who are you and what is your intent?
i have the DVD series, so i just pop in a disc when I go to bed. but i know which episode you're talking about. i so love how they used the same secondary actors playing different roles throughout the series lol

I believe there's a word for that: FRAUD.

"Because we succeeded."]
At what?
