Just a quick HSX related note. Joss Whedon will get his own star bond in one week.

http://movies.hsx.com/servlet/SecurityDetail?symbol=JWHED

Three down, seven to go. They don't add Star Bonds until a person has two projects in the pipeline so this is based on Whedon signing to write and direct Wonder Woman in addition to the BDM.

IPO price will be $20.

Part of one of the old guerilla marketing strategies that has less relevance now that the movie has been green-lit, made, has a release date, and is getting pre-screened. Now it's just a fun sideline interest for some of us

.

Here's some more threads on the topic:

Now, I don't know which is sadder, the fact that you used a "Gremlins 2" reference, or the fact that I recognized and commented on it.

Hey, there's three of us on this thread on the same wavelength, how could we be sad? Whenever I see any stock reports, all I hear is those Gremlins buying and selling. They're still preferable to most actual brokers.

About damn time, I say. Now where's Adam?

For those keeping track, here are the Serenity related stocks (at least, the ones I know of):

Serenity (FRFLY)
Alan Tudyk (ATUDY)
Nathan Fillion (NFILL)
Chiwetel Ejiofor (CEIJIO)
David Krumholtz (DKRUM)
Joss Whedon (JWHED)*
Shohreh Aghdashloo (SAGHD)**

Funds:
Universal (UNIVX)

[Actually, aside from several more funds and Indiana Jones 4, that's my entire portfolio...]

* On sale May 17th
** This one I'm not sure about. She's listed on IMDB as being in the movie, almost certainly as a bit part. Won't get adjusted when Serenity cashes out, but whatever I can do for support :).

I'll throw a few more out there that are BDH related:

Wonder Woman (WONDR) - Joss' next project
Slither (SLTHR) - Nathan's next project, in production

And there might be another Sci-Fi Fund coming along now that the old one cashed out.

*gasp*. I never even thought of purchasing WW or Slither. *does so*.

I'm sure that there will be another SF fund fairly soon and am watching for it.

We should make a "Serenity" fund. Any firefly related stocks + anything that just calms you down.... :).

Heh heh.

There's something weirdly fun about being able to say, "I own 20,000 shares of Joss Whedon."

You know, I was kind of thinking about that. You could almost make a go of it if every BDH had a star bond (I think the funds start out with 10 mil). It would be probably easier to do something more Mutant Enemy based and take anyone who was on Buffy, Angel, or Firefly (although some of the projects that SMGEL is attached to are not trading very high. I'm just happy that GGHNF took off. I picked that thing up for 0.39 a couple of weeks ago and now it's at 5.59).

Fake $ Enthusiasts, unite!

Well, I'm in pretty deep. Sunk 1.4 million into Serenity. Come on, fake SX, mama needs some new fake bling!!
Actually, the stock ain't doing so badly, no suprise there, and I am looking forward to cleaning up in September. If not, I can always fall back on my Jonathon Frakes stock.
Wow, am I actually this dorky?
