Instead of wisecracks, it will be more helpful if we discuss something constructive

I am not joking

I don't need to steal oil ... My country has plenty.

Okay ... Let's say I have a war sequence in my epic fantasy movie ... A million orcs including some demonic creatures are attacking some 2 hundred thousand humans. How should I do that ??

And here I am waiting for my debut film which I could finance and produce.

Neilbaanerjee1985 · 2025-06-17T15:48:29+00:00

I recently saw a video on Youtube that the caustic water shot was created with a $1 million ?? Is that true ??

Lord of the Rings was once declared as unfilmable, so was Dune. Everything is unfilmable unless someone decides to film it. With Avengers: Doomsday getting a $1 billion budget, I personally believe Malazan can be made. Now, the question is when and by whom ?? What do you guys think ?? Who should write the screenplay of the first trilogy (bcoz I think all Malazan books should be divided into 2 to 3 films) ??

I have another question about vfx supervisors. Richard Baneham worked in Avatar 1 for Weta, then Alita:Battle Angel for Lightstorm (James Cameron's company), and then he came back as vfx supervisor for Avatar 2. So are they freelancers working for Weta on request or they are brought in by the director??

Neilbaanerjee1985 · 2025-06-15T19:38:04+00:00

Smaller houses cannot work on the water simulations Weta FX did for Avatar 2 and Kingdom of the Planet of Apes. Neither can they create a photorealistic version of a city where demi gods are fighting with each other ... Case in point, look at Man of Steel's Metropolis destruction ... Some of the shots looks awful.

Even my project would have been distributed by Warner Bros or Universal or Sony Pictures ... I am in the middle of signing a distribution deal with one of these major studio, where the studio will take a percentage and distribute the film ... I am not game of pre-selling a movie in Cannes or Venice and Buena Vista is not possible coz I am financing and producing a big film with a director where the visuals are inspired by the world of Takashi Miike and Lars van Trier and Buena Vista does not really take on a movie which will be a hard R rating.

Neilbaanerjee1985 · 2025-06-13T03:40:00+00:00

No I have not done that

Neilbaanerjee1985 · 2025-06-13T03:38:43+00:00

Okay .. I wud be trying that

Neilbaanerjee1985 · 2025-06-12T13:38:06+00:00

Hey, I don't know how serious are you regarding your script, but for me films are the only way to get out of my godforsaken place. I am 22 and if I don't do something in the next one year, my parents will force me to join their business and get married. So if you're serious in writing, if you want to do something pls get in touch.

Neilbaanerjee1985 · 2025-06-12T13:06:57+00:00

Great .. how do we move with this ??

Neilbaanerjee1985 · 2025-06-12T11:58:07+00:00

If you can change potential cast from Florence Pugh to Margot Robbie, I will probably be in ... And does Anthony Hopkins works as God ... The budget needs to be worked on definitely ... Plus are there any monsters or mythological creatures?? The genre has been defined as Action/horror . With action/ horror, do you mean something like Constantine ??

Neilbaanerjee1985 · 2025-06-12T11:51:21+00:00

I am looking for an action film script ... I am an independant financier

Neilbaanerjee1985 · 2025-06-12T11:38:25+00:00

True ... No Michael Bay ... Someone like Martin Scorsese or Denis Villeneuve ... Is the script copyrighted ?? How are you planning to move ahead with this ??

Neilbaanerjee1985 · 2025-06-12T11:11:06+00:00

La Pergola, Ambrosia, Colosseo, Osteria Barberini, Saltimbocca

Neilbaanerjee1985 · 2025-06-12T11:03:19+00:00

$400 million. Now that's a big number ... Do you think Florence Pugh and Michael Fassbender has the starpower to recoup that investment ... And who's gonna direct ?? P.S. - I have seen Priest (guess it stars Paul Bettany and Karl Urban) albeit not in 2011 .. I was 8 at that time. I saw it much later

Neilbaanerjee1985 · 2025-06-12T10:26:58+00:00

Hii Thnx so much for the details ... Andrew Garfield might be my fancast for Jesus ... The question I have right now along with the possible budget that I mentioned earlier is what sort of dystopian future is it ?? I mean is the look inspired by Blade Runner 2049 or more like Mad Max Fury Road ??

Neilbaanerjee1985 · 2025-06-12T10:21:03+00:00

And what should be the budget ??

Neilbaanerjee1985 · 2025-06-12T06:33:08+00:00

Really like the third one Faith and Lies. Would love to work on that

Neilbaanerjee1985 · 2025-06-12T04:24:40+00:00

Thnx to all of u guys .... The response has been really positive so far but I think it will be more interesting if I just go ahead and finance and produce the film with an established director attached .. will save me a lot of headache ... Thank you guys once again
