The Times dishes movie dirt
The Business section of today's New York Times took a pretty in-depth look (free registration required, or visit bugmenot.com for a user/pass) at the Halo movie deal. It contains details about what Microsoft was asking (stuff I haven't seen elsewhere yet), as well as what each party got (Microsoft seems to have gotten 10% of the movie's gross - less than the 15% they asked for, but still a subtantial chunk)... but all of it is contingent on MS ceding some creative control, something they may not be willing to do. Great writeup - and nice to see a picture of the Master Chief on the front page of the NYT Business section. Thanks, wayn0ka. (Louis Wu 16:32:16 UTC)
