Yeah, yeah, but exactly how "much" do you love film, hmmm .... £££... ?

Like, if someone was to send you, to your home address, the opportunity to invest, yeah, in a film with Ray Winstone (!!) actually confirmed, right, with all sorts of other people not exactly confirmed, right, but it's OK I don't know them anyway, and there's the chance, right, of getting a bit part and so on, right,.....

well, you'd have to really love film, wouldn't you, to make it a present of £2,500 upwards, wouldn't you?

A Hot Potato indeed...

you'd have to be off your nut

The "tax advantages" were also mentioned.

We got one of them ages ago. It went in the bin.

Funny, that. in around 14 mins....

Is it one of these?

Three Days in Dublin (2010) (in production) (rumored) .... Fin
Red Snow (2011) (pre-production) (rumored) .... Declan
A Dead Man in Deptford (2011) (pre-production) (rumored) .... Poley
Cleo (2011) (pre-production) .... Julius Caesar
Service Man (2010) (pre-production) (rumored) .... Sergeant Hugh
St. Vincent (2010) (pre-production)

sounds like a scam tbh

No.. I have alluded to the film title already.

I Googld it, and found that some of the advertising lit has photos of Jonny Lee Miller 'reading the script'

I don't think it's a *scam* as such, I think it's a way for a film company to make a movie and have the *fun* and not be personally bankrupt at the end of it.

do you get to read the script? the whole idea is retarded and probably a pyramid scheme tbqh

I don't think it's a *scam* as such, just a way to persuade people into giving away lots of their money with a vanishingly small prospect of getting any of it back.

Basically, anything that has "tremendous commercial potential" that's being punted as an 'opportunity' to Joe Public, is..

*there*

indebin.

(xpost Agreed, ledge)

ayo if you want to blow 2500 britdollars i'm trying to get this apartment and it's gonna cost about that much up front.

I think it's good to support art and all but you shouldn't be doing it under any illusions of getting a bit role or a share of the take or whatever; just do it for the art's sake

if it was some insanely great sounding movie that could never get made otherwise... maybe

ray winstone is a cunt tho

Why?

just seems it don't it

It's the sort of thing I *have* done, but without the 'investment' part of it.

But, no.
