I’ve been too busy to do an actual post in a few days but I do have some quick opinions on some things.

Feel free to tell me if I’m wrong either in the comments or at the party.

The Copy And Paste Guide To A Job With Mark Cuban (Or Understanding The New New Movie Business)

[So Mark Cuban is offering a job to the person who can figure out how to get people into the movie theater without massive amounts of marketing. As a public service I decided to print the answer here. Please feel free to tweak this idea and send it to Mark. After you get the job all I ask is that you send me some Mavericks playoff tickets for next year. Good seats, though!]

Dear Mr. Cuban,

I saw your post today “The Movie Business Challenge” asking:

“How do you get people out of the house to see your movie without spending a fortune. How can you convince 5 million people to give up their weekend and go to a theater to see a specific movie without spending 60mm dollars.”

The answer is simple.
