• I loved this script but they will need a smart filmmaker to make it right.

• They’ve been a total flop in the movie business. Looks like another film with a limited audience. Shareholders would be better served if CBS dropped out of the movie business. Looks like a toy for Redstone to keep his fingers in something( waiting for some interesting comments on this line).

  • That’s right down with all the studios/buyers/Hollywood…up with Wallstreet! Why should people make movies when they can make more money from sub-prime swaps!

    • Where did you read anything about down with anything. Let people whose business is knowing films be in the film making business.

      • I think his/her point is that it doesn’t matter if it’s Fast 5 opening to nearly $90, another Madea hit or a writer selling a project the comments section always ends up with mostly negative swipes at all parties mentioned.

        New business is good for the industry as a whole and with Film Dept. going down we need as many buyers as possible.

      • Fair enough. I only read a mixed metaphor.

        And God forbid a movie doesn’t appeal to every audience. What were they thinking when they made HEAT?

• Obviously no one watched Donnie Brasco that’s involved with this.

  Netflix it CBS… You may just save some money by not investing.

• What’s the deal? How come they buy these movies and give such limited information about them? What makes this script different? I’m already bored, is that bad? Hopefully I get proven WRONG

  • Why must people know everything before the movie comes out these days? In your world we’d see “THE SIXTH SENSE sold for a million dollars today. Turns out Bruce Willis is dead.”

  • Being bored by a logline saves you from the hassle of reading or watching, so I think it’s a good strategy and I’d stick with it.

• The premise of this show sounds extremely similar to “Breaking Bad”.

• Les Moonves must be losing his mojo to still be keeping this place open, and even dumber to hire Wolfgang as a life-jacket. I heard Modi and Felt literally shoved him out the door.
