Gotcha. Well, I can’t wait to see it. So why no sequel for BASEketball? As someone who came to L.A. in the 90s, that was a movie that me and all my friends watched and quoted. Are you working on a sequel to BASEketball?
David Zucker
No, but somebody had, Ryan Reynolds wanted to do his company really was interested in doing a game show reality show based on BASEketball. And I think it would be a great idea, but I’m not exactly sure what’s happening with it now. It’s been going on for a while. I think it’ll probably take my getting a success in with Star Malta to put me on the map again, to get some of these other things done. The other reason why was that you may not know this, but you know, BASEketball was not a hit when it was first out. It became a hit years later and everybody loves it. And it’s my son’s favorite movie, you know, et cetera, et cetera. But they won’t make a sequel of a movie which didn’t perform at the box office. And from my bitter experience, they probably replaced me anyways. That’s Hollywood. It’s so Hollywood and I’ve been through it.
