This is huge for Verve. Congrats on the sign!!
Mike’s a great writer!! Very imaginative!!
Excellent sign! So you get to commission him in 2015?
Why is a talented writer doing crap like Garbage Pail Kids? And Mr. Toad’s Wild Ride? Why is someone smart like Michael Eisner wasting his time producing Garbage Pail Kids? Eisner couldn’t find something more worthy to produce?
Sad to see Michael scraping the bottom of the barrel. Such crap. He used to be the biggest mogul in the world. Now he’s producing movies that nobody will want to see. Keep up the great work Michael.
Really – garbage pail kids? I’m a product of the 70′s 80s but that is not a brand to reboot in the 21st century. That is sad Mr Eisner.
Good to Ava’s name in the trades. I think we will be seeing a lot more of it, as she has hit the ground running over there….
Great to see her name in the trades….because an unsold client changed agencies? Um, OK. Yay for Ava, a client changed agencies. Amazing. Keep up the good work.
All of her client’s agents should watch out. She does not know how to be a manager so she is planting the seeds with her clients to axe their agents. Then she will transition them to new agencies and that is enough to proof adding value in the lives of insecure writers.
