Oh Noes!
Bulletproof Pictures studio-head, Rotor, has just issued a press release announcing their new film, “The Eighth Day of the Week.” Nu/Art Films is said to be stunned by their decision, given that it’s being released just two weeks after their own feature, “The Eighth Circle.”
“‘The Eighth Circle’ has been in advertising for so long, that it’s inconceivable that Mr. Rotor is unaware of the title similarities,” a Nu/Art representative commented. “Bulletproof Pictures is clearly looking to capitalize on the public awareness and brand of ‘The Eighth Circle’ with this low, low, unclassy maneuver. Combine this to the fact that Bulletproof also previously tried to steal ‘The Eighth Circle’ top 4 cast member, Clive Owen, and it seems that Rotor is running a personal vendetta against Nu/Art chief Mark Chua (mc48). Despite this, it has been said that mc48 is confident that ‘The Eighth Circle’ will outperform Bulletproof, despite the cheap tactics, and refuses to comment himself.”
Could Bulletproof head Rotor really be taking advantage of the Nu/Art release? Calls to Bulletproof this afternoon have not been returned as of this writing.
“I’m sure it’s all an innocent motion on the part of Rotor” stated an HTG Hollywood insider. “Rotor’s a top-notch fellow. But movie releasing can be a cutthroat business. Let’s hope that everyone keeps theirs intact.”
