I think we may be getting those numbers at the shareholder meeting. Of course, TCF has metrics by which they can determine exactly how much revenue a given title can generate in the DVD/Blu Ray market. They didn't just gamble on taking Twelve and hoping it did well. They must have a proprietary formula they use to calculate what the projection of sales of a given title will be. That said, TCF has far reaching relationships with retailers that allow them to do that. So with Twelve, they have a movie with recognizable stars. They know they have firm commitments in place with retailers to take "X" amount of units of a given film. They could easily have commitments for 1 million units on a film like this. Now, what they negotiated with TDGI is unknown at this point. But the veil will be pulled back shortly and all will see exactly how much TDGI is making on the deal. I'm sure we'll never know the deal between TCF and TDGI exactly. But we'll see the bottom line impact of the deal and can figure it out that way.

No matter how we look at it, getting TCF to distribute Twelve was a major, major development for TDGI. Now if we can only find out if TCF has signed on board for other titles, we'll be good to go. Think T3000...
