I'm not sure what the last non-shtick role of his was--it's gotta be like 30 years by now. De Niro mostly just does shtick now too but he still has some great work in him like Silver Linings Playbook
Regardless, it's 180 that one of ARE POASTERS will be working with a Hollywood icon |

Date: January 4th, 2025 7:30 AM Author: orgasms (No Future) What's your strategy when you're selling the film? I know a lot of the time the producers basically sell the whole thing off at the film markets beforehand, so you've got downside protection but a capped upside. Is that what you do, or is there more variability to it? (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5658981&forum_id=2).#48517005) |

Date: January 4th, 2025 7:51 AM Author: Salivary Stoned (xoentlaw@gmail.com) Fuck platforms and streamers, and I've worked with enough majors to know that if I sell to them in a WW deal the film will get a solid release but it will be 7 years before I see any more money from the film (they'll drown us out in fees), and we'll lose control of the film. I'm trying to help save film / cinema, so I prioritise international sales to local distributors who will release in cinemas.
We've pre-sold a few key territories before production to help finance the production budget. Those folks put up an advance or a minimum guarantee that we can bank and take out a production loan against. So the upside is a bit capped in that before we make more money in those territories the distributor has to recoup their advance / MG.
We have 5 or 6 secured sales. Now that I'm closing the last $500k of the budget in equity to finance the rest, we're good, so I'll go to EFM and have more leverage selling out the remaining territories. Buyers will be easier to deal with as their risk is diffused and each secured territory means a more meaningful international marketing campaign which helps them all. So they'll begin to all fall into place and hopefully we have at least 3/4 of the world sold by the US launch. The rest usually sell shortly after. |

Date: January 4th, 2025 7:53 AM Author: Salivary Stoned (xoentlaw@gmail.com) Will say that, if I could finance a film 100% in cash, I would. I can't do a full negative pickup style deal where Mubi buys me out for $25m after I've already made it because I need to use some of the pre-sales I make as collateral for my production loan.
