So Ryan Coogler somehow convinced the studios to fund a $90M vampire movie. But it goes so much further than that. He gets first dollar profit participation. That's a share of the box office from day one. After 25 years the studio loses the rights to the film and they revert to him. Holy shit - ThreadSky

Wow, that's incredible. I think a lot of studios are looking at what Blumhouse is doing and looking for ways to chase that. Horror is one of the only. consistent theatrical money makers these days.

If he’s that good at the art of the deal, should he be President? He’d have to be better than what we have now.

How do we make this the law for all creative work?

Holy shit that last one! Like, that cut of the profits is a damn good deal for anyone but to get the rights to the movie? That just doesn't happen.

For eternity he will ride the coattails of Preston Koogler

Better be a good vampire movie

I don't even know where to begin on what a huge deal all this is. That shit is a game changer. He'll own his own film. It's only a matter of time before other big-name directors start demanding the same. This is massive.

this is why the studios are shitting themselves over it.
