There will, of course, be a sequel. The business model is, naturally, franchise in nature. AJ's star power demands it. I'm lining up directors as we speak and there's some weight on the list, ba-lee u me. Scorcese IM'd and..ummm..in the words of Whitney Houston, "Hell-2-tha-NO". What I have in mind is a reinvention of the "Jaws" franchise, except basketball instead of, well, whatever they were doing. Spielberg's agent/drinking buddy called right after the fact and was all "We get a cut and shit" and I was all "STFU b4 I tell everyone you secretly post as longhorn_22 on BNation and various grassroots homebased entrepeneurial cosmetics websites." The chatter from that camp subsided at that point. Anyways, so Scorcese (heretofore, "Marty") was all "I'll get DiCaprio to play the shark" and I was all "uh, we all saw Basketball Diaries...Leo can't even dribble, let alone pull off a scary 'dorsal fin, I'm comin to getcha' approach on dry land". Plus, Leo in a shark suit? What is this, SNL circa 197-Aykroyd? No way. And I doubt we can afford CGI (I mean, maybe. I was going to shoot off an SMS text to Sheila Stearns and see about folding this project into FY2011. I intend on submitting a "blue sky" budget of course, but don't tell her. I don't think she knows about this site. I'll submit a revised if necessary, but I hope not.) Fingers crossed
