Some interesting claims on how much money illegal downloading is costing Hollywood

This is the same math that allows for a film w/ a $15 mil budget that grosses $100 mil to be in the red The Wolf of Wall Street potentially missed out on over $240 million in additional revenue in 2014, thanks to the number of times the movie was downloaded on the internet illegally.Wolf of Wall Street lost nearly $7.70 per second in potential revenue with an average of nearly a single download per second last year. If each download represented that person instead going to the movies and spending $8.08, the average price of a movie ticket in 2014, these movies likely would have made a lot more money, especially considering a good bit of these downloads happened after the movie was released on DVD. It wasn't just adult movies that seemed to have taken a likely financial hit with illegal copies of movies hitting the internet lately. Frozen "Let it Go" to the tune of nearly 30 million downloads and roughly $7.67 per second in potential loss. Some of the other mov

Alien Outpost interview w/ director Jabbar Raisani

Alien Outpost instantly sets itself apart from other science fiction films with its tone, in a way the film plays closer to Band Of Brothers than Starship Troopers. Not to say that the film is self important or arrogant but that its far more grounded in reality... with aliens, of course. The film is a "documentary" so we have interviews with the soldiers cut with the main action of the film. Its an effective and economic way of propelling the narrative forward without the need for clunky exposition. The characters can freely discuss what they are thinking about in a scene or give you their back story in a non distracting way because of documentary style. Here is an interview that will be featured in an upcoming episode of War Machine Vs War Horse . Alien Outpost is currently playing in limited theatrical release and available on VOD .
