That's why only idiots gamble.

That is what I expect if I expose it, a ton of victim blaming. that is why I will not expose it . I will not only get sued but that on top of it get character assassination.

did you make independence day?
>>71303243
Why didn't you use a lawyer when you drafted up the agreement?
>>71303243
Well you were retarded if you honestly thought you would get 70% cut of gross. I'm a moron and it doesn't even make sense to me that someone else would go out of their way to make someone else rich.
>>71303382
I did and even they couldn't anticipate this would happen
I'm really curious, what's the name of the movie? You're among friends here :^)

>lawyers couldn't anticipate rights being sold to subsidiary
I got some bad news for you, senpai. You're either lying (on the internet) or your lawyers are complete idiots.
>>71303740
This.
Seems like standard kike practice to me.
>>71303625
You hired a really bad lawyer.
>>71304566
A lawyer would literally have to be almost brainbdead not to see this possibility.

>>Distributor sells it to their own shell company for $200
Really you should have known this when dealing with Jews
>>71302972
What distributor was it? My mother's boyfriend is an amateur filmmaker, he's actually going through a court case with a distributor right now as well/
Can we get hints?
What movie? What company?
/pol/ is always right.
I legitimately feel for you OP and sympathy is rare as fuck on 4chan.
You don't have money but I hope you have good things in life in spite of that.

Is he black?
>>71302972
How have they commented this? The company you sold it to?
Also if you've already lost everything you might aswell tell everyone. If you let it go, they'll do it to someone else. There needs to be an example set for others that wanna try that shit.
If this is true, even if you are SOL on the movie just make another one. If you have made a commercially successful movie, you probably will be able to get funding for another one. Network nigga

this
>70% of gross???
serious bro? if you had negotiated even 5% of gross you would be pruducer status..
either Nigerian prince tier scam or simple anonymous internet lies
Remember.
Return Of The Jedi never turned a profit according to its studios and they don't have to pay actors who signed up for residuals on the back end.
