Five More Days…

I want to sincerely thank everyone for their great support of The Ten. The movie’s been a labor of love for all who collaborated on it and it’s been great to see the positive reaction (so far). There’s an article in today’s New York Times about the ventriloquist dummy who passed on a key role in the film. Also it was great to see so many of you at the NuArt theater in LA the other night for Wet Hot American Summer.

Our marketing budget is 1/20th the size of the seven other movies opening this Friday, so please spread the word as far and wide as you can. Send email blasts! Post on message boards! Gather huge groups to go to theaters this weekend!

There’s something for everyone in this movie:
–SEX (with puppets and prisoners)
–DRUGS (sold by a cartoon Rhino)
–ROCK AND ROLL (from wall to wall)
–EMMY WINNERS (like Bobby Cannavale)
–OSCAR NOMINEES (like Winona Ryder)
–INDIE DARLINGS (like Justin Theroux)
–LOTS OF NAKED MEN DANCING AROUND A HOUSE
–TONY WINNERS (like Liev Schreiber)
–ACTION HEROES (like Jessica Alba, Famke Janssen)
–TV HEART-THROBS (like Adam Brody)
–PAUL RUDD (like Paul Rudd)
–A REAL VENTRILOQUIST (Michael Ziegfeld)
–A STAR OF “REVERSAL OF FORTUNE” (Ron Silver)
–HIP ALT COMEDY STARS (like Rob Corddry, Kerri Kenney-Silver, H. Jon Benjamin, Ken Marino, David Wain, Michael Showalter, Michael Ian Black, Janeane Garofalo, Joe Lo Truglio, A. D. Miles, Robert Ben Garant, Thomas Lennon, Zak Orth, Jason Sudeikis)
