05/18/2006: "Ten the cursed number for "Gamers""

Fact or fiction?

Since the start of the production the movie has had a problem with the number 10.

1. The birth of the directors twins 10 weeks early

2. Exaclty Ten film festivals have rejected the movie

3. Exactly Ten distributors have rejected the movie

4. Ten Thousand sold copies of "Gamers"? That's all that is needed to make money back and start another movie.

Hah. Just sell one copy at 10,000 times the price!

Try Number Twenty!
Maybe you're looking at the wrong number...
1. Two healthy boys, EACH ten weeks early is 20.
2. Ten festivals out of... hundreds? Double your efforts
3. Ten distributors said no. Now your agent will get it to nineteen. (If he's worth his weight in poop, something WILL happen.) Otherwise, you are number twenty!
4. ONLY ten thousand copies? Aim high! Sell twenty thousand copies, then have a bigger budget to pay off film festivals to screen your next one!
