This is 100% fantasy. No one believes a goddamned work of it. There will be no TEMPUS PORTA. The moron CEO is quickly approaching the 6 year anniversary of the start of the ultra-low budget WILDFIRE and he still hasn't managed to get it done. No one is giving this buffoon 22M to make a movie. NO ONE.
There is a significant "overhead fee" paid to HHSE from the film's production funding. But the bigger values are in HHSE capitalizing the full production costs ($22-mm) to the balance sheet, and controlling the worldwide distribution rights in Perpetuity (worth at least another $20-mm in gross revenues). We're not screwing around with low-value properties anymore... the way to take HHSE up to the Lionsgate level is to have some SERIOUS feature projects... such as TEMPUS PORTA.
