Wait, I Have Notes

ralph:
"The Maiden Heist
High-profile talent: Morgan Freeman, Christopher Walken, William H. Macy, Marcia Gay Harden

This $20 million heist comedy can boast a raft of highly-awarded stars, but one thing it doesn’t have is a theatrical release. Instead, it’s going straight-to-DVD next month thanks to bankrupted producer Bob Yari (Crash). When Yari’s independent distribution unit imploded last year, he tried to find a studio who’d pick up Maiden Heist, but none bit (not helping matters was his early decision to sell off ancillary rights to Sony, since no studio wanted to take a chance on an adult-targeted comedy without DVD and pay-TV profits down the line).

ralph: dumb fuck
ralph: the thing can be profitable with dvd foreign and pay-tv before it hits theaters
ralph: ya take GROSS POINTS AND PAY OUT ONLY ADJUSTED GROSS TO THE TWO OR THREE BANKABLE NAMES YA GOTTA PAY AND HANG ON I'M GOING INTO A TUNNEL==
