nope. It's made for internal promotion.

The movie itself is basically finished, but is in legal limbo for the last 5 years

This was an internal promo video that was never supposed to be seen by the public. I feel bad because it contains a bunch of plot points and temp VFX,” Sandberg told Variety in a statement. “I hope at least people can see the passion that we poured into the movie, the world deserves to see it as it was meant to be seen. This movie has been held hostage for the past 5 years but I promise to keep fighting for it and make sure this film gets the chance it truly deserves.

Does anyone know what exactly is the legal issue with the film?

A major investor owes them 10 million dollars they agreed upon but refused to pay after the movie finished shooting.

The movie is mostly finished but postproduction and release stopped until the lawsuit is resolved.

Damn. Such cases could take a long time to resolve.

[–] simple@lemm.ee 2 points 2 months ago

The lawsuit started 5 years ago and it's still not clear when it'll get resolved or if they'll even get the money in the end :/

legal limbo is the dumbest shit, it's just a company who refuses to make a small amount of money and would rather make $0 lol
