Another Chapter – Mr. Hedge

Very recently, this almost-television network released an original, big budget film.

In recent years, the director had a couple big box office successes in the same genre.

Hollywood directors say 1 or 2 things about this almost-television network.

Either the company bought their film when nobody else would, or gave them the kind of money and freedom that nobody else would.

This very recent film falls into the latter category.

The almost-television network paid very, very dearly for the services of this director.

The director called this very recent film a “spiritual sequel” to his 1st film. The 1st film was critically acclaimed, and turned a small profit on a limited budget.

Almost everyone who has seen this very recent film seems to agree on one thing: that it’s terrible.

Basically, nobody understood the movie.

It stars a B+ list actor/writer who recently separated from his permanent A list wife.

It also stars an A- list, foreign-born mostly television actor who always seems to save his best work for one channel.

You all know the drill by now.

The almost television network will tell its investors that another terrible film was a success.

The company will carry the value of the film on its books, for much more than the film is worth, for many years.

The almost-television network is burning cash at an extremely alarming rate.

Later this year, they are due to borrow even more money.

My prediction is that this will cost them very dearly.
