Thank you for the request. Lets talk, we may be able to do something.

Jonathan Williams

I sent you a message Emile, hopefully we can work togther

Emile Greiss

Enjoyable and insightful. I am always interested in the beginning or the start of the journey of successful people in business. Often it is the untold part of their story and often can be the most interesting. Its comforting to know we share same or similar personal experiences as those Directors. T...

Persistence...Probably the biggest takeaway, Emile. You not only have to have a thick skin when playing this game, but you have to be willing to hang in. If there was ever an industry where "It's a marathon, not a sprint" served as an appropriate motto, this is it.

Emile Greiss

Hello Melissa, thank you for the connection. Cheers.

In South Africa we are taking cinemas back to the masses. The plan is to open 1200 mini 60 seat cinemas in the communities and have ticket prices at $3 to $5 including refreshments. We estimate we can add 50% to the SA box office profit. I know SA is a tiny market, but we have to do something to help fix the world.

Stephanie Gilbert

Can you imagine, how people would hawk the tickets, if all theaters in the US would do this in unison?

John H. Eschenburg

I think it would be wonderful. I have just presented to the Durban International Film Festival. I calculated that we can add R350 million per annum to the Film Makers PROFIT !. The Box Office Turnover...

MOVIE MAKERS SHOULD WAKE UP AND SMELL THE AUDIENCE ! WHO ARE MOVIE MAKERS MAKING MOVIES FOR ? WHY ARE MOVIE MAKERS IGNORING ±80% OF YOUR MARKET ? ReaGilè has just presented the ReaGilè Cinema Project...

The future may not be the theatres, rather the home movie nights will be the go. As TV screens are getting larger with brilliant clarity and becoming more affordable, and more people have an entertainment rooms, invite family and friends and the unlimited pop corn is free. Unbeatable.!

Laura Cook

Popcorn not quite free, but we can pop organic corn and use real butter...;-)

Stephanie Gilbert

It's not free, but still cheaper. $4.00 for a large drink and another $3 dollar for popcorn have become more than insulting!

John H. Eschenburg

You guys are missing the plot. You all think in terms of a dwindling audience. Why not think in terms of MAKING MOVIES AFFORDABLE TO THE MASSES ? US population 313 million x $1 profit per person to watch a movie in a cinema = $157 million per hour.

Emile Greiss

As a new entrant in the industry this is a great insight. 10 out of 10 RB. Cheers.

Richard "RB" Botto

You're saying we stuck the landing? I'll take a 10 any day. Thanks, Emile!

John H. Eschenburg

Hi Smile, been working on this for 6 years. Everybody in the film industry is working on making films, and bitching about the sad state of the film industry because they cannot sell their films !. Well, the film industry is shooting itself in the foot. What about concentrating on MAKING SURE YOU HAV...

Mark, great insight. Thanks for sharing. A lot is said on film making, would Kickstarter platform work for a TV production? What rewards ideas do you suggest? Cheers Emile

Mark Stolaroff

I mostly see what my friends and colleagues send me, which is mostly films. I've also seen books and web series, and probably a TV pilot or two. You can certainly research Kickstarter and see if you c...

Great read and insight RB. The future for Stage 32 sounds promising. If you are in Sydney (Australia), lets share some Aussie wine.

Richard "RB" Botto

Brian Neubauer

Is there room for more at that bottle?
