RE:RE:RE:NXO & Arch Meredithpatents yes, and finally commercial revenue these are the glue to which everything will be stuck to in the most positive way. As for the talent that the company is attracting I believe that this should really convey to people those who are willing to put their name behind them. Sure people can say that these heavy hitters are getting compensated so why not? I will tell you, no matter how much i myself would personally get for joining any company I would not want to sell out my integrity and reputation. I know people would say yeah, sure sure but think about it this way--when you have actors in Hollywood and they are starting out they will literally take any job to earn their pay but more than that if they are actually really talented even in junkie movies they will be seen as the shining light in them. Now when these actors have gained enough status, recognitiion and prestiege, unless they are really really stuck for work they will not likely chose to participate in B grade movies even if they are paid a fortune. Why because despite bringing their talent to their production people are very hard on A list actors chosing sub par productions that can not be saved by them and that really hurts their reputation, same thing here in my opinion and the business world is pretty well connected in the way Hollywood.
If you chose stinkers and should not that will affect your future opportunities and with it knock you down the talent list, if you bad mouth a director in the industry there will be the majority of others who will not want to touch you with a 10 foot pole. That is how important one's reputation, integrity and prestiege is and it should not come cheap or be compromised so one needs to pick and chose very carefully who they would like to give their name and support to.
good luck all!
