A new idea.
I was thinking about this when I first saw batman begins. It was during the previews and I saw the preview for stealth. And just from that I could tell that it would be bad. I thought could all of the major movie production companies partner up and create a cheap movie solely for advertising. If five studios get together they could each pitch in 5 mill to make a decent 25 million dollar movie. But each of these producers gets a commercial in front of the movie for one of their up coming movies, and within the movies they could put ads everywhere. Any product that is seen on screen could be sponsored by some company that is affiliated with those products. Now what kind of movie could you make for 25 million. Well a lot of TV shows are made for 5 mill an episode. So you could get a TV show with an already large fanbase(like firefly), recreate it for the big screen, and it could all be done very cheaply using the same cast and crew.
The most money will have to be for promoting the hell outta the movie. There should be commercials running all the time from each of the contributing studios, and plenty of partnering with outside companies. The hardest part is getting people past the trailer. You make the trailer look 100 times better than the flick itself. Once people go to see it, it doesn't matter if the like it or not, the critics can say whatever they want, as long as there is plenty of advertising people will see this movie. And very few people have to see it and it will pay for itself. On top of that the ads within the movie should more than double the cost of production. AS LONG AS THE MONEY IS THERE FOR ADVERTISING everything else will fall into place.
So its basically a 2 hour commercial made for very cheap and hopfully seen by a lot of people. I know this is kind of spacey but anyone have any opinions. This could work, if it is carefully planned out.
In this case there is no failure, only differed success.
