Big Things are Afoot



Starbox Pictures is less than a week away from the launch of our full court Internet press.

Being poor, independent filmmakers, we've had to rely on the good graces of friends to pull this thing off.

We Starbox folks are lucky to have a bevvy of damn talented friends, helping build our Web site, designing graphics, helping with our accounting, and contracts for our investors, cast, and crew. The number of people who've invested in "Suicide Squad" so far -- be it time, money, or talents -- is more than we ever dreamed of.

By the time we're done with this movie, I believe we will have exhausted every favor the universe will allow us. Of course, we hope the movie is a huge success and these same people are lining up to help us again. But in the interim, we're doling out points, credits, and thankyou's like they're currency. And in many cases, we're trading out our confederate dollars for cold hard cash.

In the coming weeks, we will add a ticker to the blog, showing how much money we've raised, and who to credit for the investments.

The GREAT news is that in addition to all those who've donated their time and talents to this project, we have commitments of over $25,000 already.

This thing is becoming more of a reality every day.

Sappy thanks to all of you!
