Looks like Paramount has bragging rights for the first deal at Sundance this year (major deal, I should say).
It's from Oscar winning director Davis Guggenheim (AN INCONVENIENT TRUTH).
This new one, Waiting For Superman, obviously wants to deceive comic book fanboys and other moviegoers into buying tickets for a documentary about the public education crisis when they might think it's about the legendary superhero.
Paramount better change the name really quick and hopefully they missspell it to get the point across.
As you can imagine Viacom share holders are jumping for joy (sarcasm).
I have seen it and t is very well put together, I'm just not sure how they hell they are going to sell it to more than a limited audience.
If anyone is at Sundance it will be showing tomorrow.
Congrats to Jim Berk, Lesley Chilcott, Davis Guggenheim and crew!
