It's good fun because it's totally live and they're a really nice bunch. I always have a laugh with Aidan. It's good thing those make-up are on hand to make me look presentable...

Just saw the end of it. ACcidently chanced upon it while channel surfing. (I was not looking at it to see if Sister Sister/Sabrina was on tonight) Looking well on Den TV Sinead.

These suits or at least the failure to pony up on gross points etc is a regular Hollywood occurance. I have no doubt that creative accounting will demonstrate that Brokeback, despite being a box office smash, lost its producers shedloads of money. Of course, Randy will also find it difficult to show that Ang was lying when he said that. He wasn't to know it would make out like a bandit. I guess it comes down to what the terms of Randy's contract were in the absence of a big paycheck upfront. If there was no agreement on profit sharing (and as above, good luck finding any profit), I'd say a judge will tell him he took a risk like everyone else and it's his own tough he didn't make a better deal.
