How can it be that ten times today (yes, ten different buys), I put in a buy for 5,000 shares of PDOS at a limit price of 2 cents and even one time at 3 cents. Eight times someone sold me the shares for 1.54 cents. The other two tmes I received the shares for 1.53 cents and 1.5 cents!? Who is selling at these low rates? Thought for sure I could help get the price up to 2 cents today. Oh well -- holding strong at 1.5 cents PPS.
PDOS4Life
...so please tell me something. If I have a buy order in for All or None @ 3 cents a share and someone has a sell order in for the same quantity @ 3 cents a share, all or none, would the transaction take place and if it did, then would the price that shows up on the market be 3 cents?
Just changed my buy to 5000 shares all or nothing @ 3 cents! Comon someone sell me 5000 shares All or None, @ 3 cents a share!
I have a buy and a sell in for 5000 shares @ 2 cents (all or none). Somebody either buy 5000 shares @ 2 cents or sell 5000 shares at 2 cents and let's start this ball rolling upwards! Make sure you put in ALL OR NONE!
If I can allow my mind to wander for a bit...
...if we substitute numbers for each letter in PLATINUM STUDIOS, using the legend below:
A B C D E F G H I J K L M
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13
N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z
14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26
then PLATINUM STUDIOS total comes out to:
PLATINUM = 106
STUDIOS = 107
For a total of 213. Then if you add the numbers that represent PDOS, that equals 54. So here is my theory; starting on Monday, at the opening bell, count 54 hours which takes you to Wednesday 3:30 PM. So here is my prediction using numbers:
on Wednesday, 31 Aug, PDOS will hit $0.0213 (the 213 comes from all the letters in Platinum Studios. Can you tell I am a bit bored...lol
PDOS4Life
...er, excuse me, but no one mentioned that we had an 11.97% increase in our PPS. A pretty good way to end the week, especially with volume as low as it was. Should hit 2 cents on Monday! Mark it!
PDOS4Life
...have you ever had as much fun with a stock purchase? I know that I haven't. To be a shareholder of a company that has its hands in all aspects of today's media world -- it's exciting! Now if only we could get back to the 7 cents a share range.
I will be hurricane watching on the East Coast this weekend. Would be nice if PDOS starts the weekend with a double digit percent gain today. If not, I will be purchasing a few more shares so my PPS comes down a bit. Currently standing at $0.03867 PPS.

I know that religion may not have a place here on this board, but here goes anyway...
...may the Lord bless us all and provide us with riches beyond belief. Maybe if we have the Big Man on our side, PDOS will start climbing as if it was on a Stariway to Heaven.

We are a comics-based entertainment company. We own the rights to a library of over 5,000 comic book characters, which we adapt and produce for film, television and all other media. Our library contains characters in a full range of genre and styles. With deals in place with film studios and media players, our management believes we are positioned to become a leader in the creation of new content across all media.
All this for only $0.014 a share?!! Sign me up.

...couldn't sleep so I came here -- odd? Not sure why I came to this site? Somehow, IHUB has become a daily read for me, at least when it comes to PDOS. Even though I have lost over 67% since I wrote my first post, July 24th, somehow being here relaxes me. I think it is because i am among people that wish that PDOS will climb and hit new 52-week highs, on a daily basis. It is our belief that we own stock in a special company and that we were able to buy-in at a fraction of what the shares should be worth.
Time to get back to sleep and dream of greener pastures...

...actually it does include the UK; we did not do well there, coming in 4th in the box office (read my previous post # 16637). The international numbers on box office mojo DO include the UK, even though the specific totals for the UK are not listed.
I wuld have liked for Cowboys & Aliens do have done better, but it will make a profit for the movie houses. It will reach $160+ million and once the DVD/Blu-Rays come out, it will be more money -- just won't be for our pockets. But not to worry, we have nerchandizing rights. And I know we won't sell as much as the smurfs or other well known brands, but remember, we are a penny stock company that hangs with the big boys. We are not doing badly at all... patience is the key. Hold long and one day we will be back in the 7 cents range.
PDOS4Life
You were right... with such low volume, I may have to start buying again, just to push this back into the 2 cents range.
Weekend International box office numbers are in:
Paramount’s Cowboys & Aliens, the sci/fi-western hybrid costarring Daniel Craig and Harrison Ford, maintained its low box office profile overseas with an $8.1 million weekend at 2,376 locations in 22 territories. Accumulated foreign gross since Aug. 9 came to $18 million. A No. 4 U.K. premier generated $3 million from 476 venues while an Australia debut provided $2.2 million from 229 sites.
Oh well... so C&A is not the greatest movie out there and once again the Smurfs beat us out. Luckily we sold the rights to the movie and were not about to make any revenue from box office receipts. So Platinum Studios has 2 movies out so far and at least we can say they are getting better. The movie business is tough, there are no sure winners. What does all this mean for us?
1. Well PDOS is close to its all time 52-week low so it really cannot go that much lower.
2. For a small comic book company to get two of its properties on the silver screen, that is amazing.
3. We have other projects coming out...
4. Hold LONG...
5. Buy now to average down your PPS.
6. Our day will come -- you just have to be patient.
7. Time to watch True Blood on HBO.
8. Yeah, a disappointing weekend, but heck, can't win them all.
9. Our focus has to be on paying off our debt and getting past this upcoming dilution.
10. We will see better days...patience...
PDOS4Life
...could be worse -- Platinum Studios could go bankrupt! I should wash my own mouth out with soap for uttering those words. Yeah, this is not the greatest of times, but I choose to remain optimistic since I have quite a few shares @ PPS of $0.03921. The weekend box office receipts (international) should be showing up later today -- hope it takes the #1 spot in the UK and Australia; may allow us to sell a lot of C&A merchandise over there.
PDOS4Life
Not to worry... there is not enough volume for the price to concern us. If we were trading 7 - 10 million shares daily, and the price was this low, then I would be concerned. The international box office should be incredible this weekend -- we may get to the magic $160+ million break even mark. Regardless, PDOS will go up and down for a while... hang in there. PDOS has way too much going for it to stay this low. Sure we have debt, and until we clear that debt, we will stay in the 2 - 3 cents range. Once the next report comes out and it shows that our debt has been reduced due to all the incoming merchandise money, we will start our slow climb back up and we will stay up. The Market Makers will try to hold us down, but once the word gets out and PDOS starts seeing over 5 million volume daily, we will not only get back to the 7 cents range but we WILL break our 52-week high. Mark it here, by the end of Jan 2012 we will be back in the 7 cent range and will pass the 52-week high no later than the middle of Feb 2012.

I finally saw the interview that Scott (our CEO) gave and I agree with all of you -- it could have been more polished. That being said, an interview on TV, or wherever this was, is fantastic. What Scott does have, is a childish way about him. It may very well appeal to certain people; he comes across almost as if he were a child. In today's media industry there are many "flamboyant" characters and if our CEO is one of those personalities, so be it...
Every day I own this stock I am amazed that I am part of something this big! I am enjoying this ride and I have never ever felt this way about any other stock I have owned. Sure, I have lost money, but you would never know by my smile, by the way I hang on every piece of info concerning PDOS.
This is fun -- this is exciting -- and the best part of all of this is that we are at the beginning of something that is going to continue to grow and grow and grow. Thank you Scott Mitchell Rosenberg for allowing me to enjoy the stock market again.

Excellent information MyKOTown... You are spot on. It will take some time, but this is the kind of stock that you really should not pay too much attention to. With time I will let go of my "baby" and just check on her every so often. For now I keep looking in on PDOS on a daily basis. What you say is very true -- It takes time for the kind of name recognition that will have folks wearing Platinum Studios' characters on their T-shirts. Another thing is the number of shares. I hope they do some sort of reverse split so that the number of shares trading goes down. This will make our stock more valuable, even though we will have a lesser amount of shares and a higher PPS.
JMHO,

PDOS -- Reality Check
We all want PDOS to do well and continue climbing, but several folks here said let's keep it real, so here goes:
- PDOS is a penny stock, and it will increase once volume increases. Truth be told, everytime I have bought over 500K shares, the stock has gone up.
- We are currently trading at $0.02 a share. No one is going to become a millionaire any time soon.
- The international box office totals will be good for us, but even better would be PR from the company.
- The Smurfs hurt us... no way around that.
- Cowboys and Aliens' worldwide box office will put them over the $160 million or so that it took to make the movie. If we can total over $200M in worldwide box office receipts, that will bode well for future projects.
- Please learn from my mistakes; diversify, diversify, diversify...
- Getting ready for bed, I anxiously await the morning bell so I can keep track of "my baby."
- We need more people to learn about PDOS -- the more the merrier.
Good Night,
PDOS4Life
I have a feeling that most people here, would LOVE to see a Disney buyout! Most definitely would make the PPS jump from its current price to at least the 20 - 30 cents range... maybe higher.
Would love to look back at this stock one day and see a repeat of what GMCR has done in the past 15+ years. GMCR was below 20 cents a share in 1994 and is now trading at over $100 PPS! Could you imagine if Platinum Studios did everything right for the next 15+ years and somehow (I know I am dreaming) got up to the $100 PPS range! WOW!!! We would all be multi-millionaires -- if we hold...
PDOS4Life
Probably will be...
"UNIQUE"
Platinum Studios is also currently partnered with Walt Disney Pictures to develop "Unique" into a full-length feature film... read the intro to Platinum Studios forum by clicking on the Platinum Studios (PDOS) link above.
...can't wait until the international box office numbers come out on Monday. Give us 2 - 3 weeks and we will overtake the little blue people. Regardless, once we go over $250M worldwide, we can sit back and wait on a C&A Part 2!
The GIANT Platinum logo at the front of the movie, is the best part! lol -- unfortunately it is not the greatest movie, not a bad movie considering it was Platinum's first try. Regardless, it got us started, and the DVD sales worldwide will bring in much needed money to Platinum Studios. Cowboys & Aliens a much better movie. Can't wait for the third one to come out.
Somewhere around $12 is a possibility if we get bought out and then are involved in several great deals!
PDOS4Life
I was having some fun with Microsoft Excel and built a simple spreadsheet with all my holdings. Decided to see what PDOS has to go up to in order for me to become a millionaire! lol
Well if PDOS hits my magic number of $0.3781 a share, I will become a millionaire!
PDOS4Life, or at least until I become a millionaire! haha...
What is your magic PPS?
I too, bought in high at over 6 cents a share, but by averaging down now have a PPS of $0.03927.
PDOS4Life
Thanks BOOSJIM...
You can be assured that I am KEEPING all my shares. I will be holding onto PDOS for quite some time. PDOS4Life
Would love for them to put PDOS.OB in the credits of the movie! That would be great PR! I am all for it! haha... I can dream...
First of all, I want to say that I don't always understand the complexities of trading, especially when it comes to penny stocks. Last night I knew that I wanted to purchase additional shares of PDOS so I could average down my PPS. This morning my buy order went in for 850K+ shares @ 1.7 cents. Did I hurt the PDOS shareholder because I was not willing to pay the ask price? I noticed the stock immediately went down. So my apologies to all – I am just glad that PDOS went back up again. Volume wise, we had a lot of attention on us today, hope my initial buy this morning, helped us in the long run.
PDOS4Life – this past week, was able to bring down my PPS from $0.06283 to $0.03931. Now let’s ride this all the way back up to the $0.07 range and beyond!
This is pretty cool, wish my investment firm had level 2. I trade using my retirment 401(k) company, Vanguard. Can I ask which company do you use in order to get level 2 like this.
The 300,000 bid was not fake... this morning I thought I could catch PDOS before it started going up. I will watch PDOS in the AM and if it looks as if it is climbing, I will raise my bid. Don't want to be the cause of our shares going down.
I too am in the $0.05 range...$0.0505 to be exact. I will be buying a few more shares tomorow to lower my PPS into the 4.5 cents range. Yes we have suffered thru the downward spiral, but now we should be able to buy at a lower price (if you have some extra funds). I did something silly, borrowed money from another 401(k) to invest in Platinum Studios. I hope to buy some more shares in the comng days so that I can lower my PPS under 4 cents.
Good luck, and even if you cannot buy more shares at this point in time, then relax and know that PDOS will not have debt forever, and when they clear their debt and release some good numbers in this coming Quarterly report or next... we will be back in the 6 - 7 cents range...and more.
PDOS4Life
As a shareholder, I am really enjoying myself with PDOS. My 401(k) used to sit all in General Dynamics stock. When I switched jobs, I could not rollover my 401(k) because GD had fallen from $90+ a share to $35 a share. Saw my retirement fund lose so much money. Somehow with PDOS, the losses we have endured this past week -- sure they hurt, but I am buying more shares and lowering my average PPS. It is almost as if I am OK knowing there will be ups and downs...this is a penny stock.
I grew up reading comics and even though I am in my 50s now, I have somehow enjoyed this rollercoaster! I am now ready for a climb... but should we go down, I will just buy more shares. This past week I have lowered my PPS from $0.06283 to $0.0505.
PDOS4Life
Thank you for a very educated well-written response to my questions. I was able to buy some more shares today below $0.0167 PPS and lower my average PPS to almost 5 cents. Plan to buy some more on Monday, hoping to bring my PPS avg to under 4 cents! Today was a good day and there was good PR that helped us. I too came onboard as a PDOS shareholder because I actually wanted to be a shareholder of a company that was involved in things that I liked, things that I enjoyed. I don't regret getting invovled, and I am a better educated investor because of the mistakes I made buying large quantities of PDOS and continuing to raise my bid price instead of allowing the gap to come back down to me. Long story short...PDOS4Life
Quick question? How low can PDOS go? Is there a legal limit? Can it go so low that all our shares are worthless? I am new to all this penny stock madness. Just wondering what I will do with my 2 million shares if the stock continues to plummet?
Wow, $0.025 PPS is fantastic! I have almost 2 million shares so in order for me to bring my PPS down to where you are at I would have to buy several million more at a price well under a penny. I just did the math, hahaa -- I would have to buy 2,906,977 shares @ $0.0086 for a total of approx. $25,000. hahaha... Then my PPS would drop to $0.0249!!! WOW! That was the most fun I have had with PDOS in quite some time.
I too bought in at the end of the upward run and my average PPS was over 6 cents. I have been able to average down by buying some discounted shares and now my PPS = $.0575. Tempted to buy again in the morning at this discounted price and bring my PPS to under 5 cents a share. We will see... we might have to hold onto PDOS for quite some time. Put in your limit order, good for 90 days and then check back every 3 months. I will not sell until I make a profit, so I may be holding PDOS until the next movie comes out...
...I see the fever for PDOS dying down for awhile and then eventually it will become a hot stock again and the pumpers will pump it up into the 6 - 7 cents range. Then the shorters will take it right back down to the penny range. So get in your limit orders and set them at a price you are willing to accept. For me, that is the $0.059 range. I will be able to get out with a small profit. Good luck to us all -- and remember penny stocks carry a big risk. We all were willing to take a big risk dreaming of the big payday. It did not come for most of us -- for those of you who bought low and sold high -- good job. Hope to one day join you in the land of making a profit.
PDOS4Life or should I change my name to PDOS4five.nine_cents
Thanks for the upbeat words. You are correct, until I sell, there is no loss. I am signing off this board for a while. maybe it will bring us good luck. Take care my fellow shareholders,
PDOS4Life
I am about hyped out... sad... I have spent way too much time worrying about my shares in PDOS. Have lost over half of my 401(k). That is what happens when you take a gamble. Oh well, it is only money. I am still young enough to make it up. I will be long on PDOS and really need to stop wasting my times on these boards. Sorry for sounding so negative. Good luck to us all, i am sure PDOS will eventually climb back up -- I just do not have the bandwidth to keep checking every day and hoping. Still LONG on PDOS...
Smurfs will continue losing steam thoughout the week -- Cowboys & Aliens, will drop, but word of mouth will keep C&A at the top of the charts until Friday when all the new movies are released. We should pull in more than enough money to make C&A go over $50 million box office receipts. Not bad for a darn good western and pretty good sci-fi. We will keep adding to our domestic total and then prepare ourselves for the international release. That is where we will make a killing. Let us not forget the Debt crisis has been resolved -- that will add to the fuel this morning as we take off to the moon! JMHO
Platinum Studios' first movie also was not that great, Dylan Dog: Dead of Night. They produced that movie and..., well suffice to say it may make more in DVD sales than it did in the theaters. So like Marvel, we too had a somewhat dud on our hands at first try. Lesson learned and now we have Cowboys & Aliens, a true hit!
