Legends of the Knight
- Thread starter Batman
- Start date
Thanks Pauly! Yeah it's a bit of work to promote this thing. I think putting it out there bluntly on FB that I'm a producer helped to show I'm serious about this film. Maybe that helped to convince 10-20 people that were on the fence to go ahead and purchase tickets to my screening. Maybe, maybe not.
I know Brett had a real conundrum on his hands in that he wanted this film to be used for good causes and if he had gone the distribution route it wouldn't have been able to do that, at least not on this level. And on the flip side, distribution would've allowed it to be seen as fast as possible by many more people. Anyone who really wants to see it will most likely see a screening pop-up in their area especially near larger cities throughout the U.S. but they've got to keep their antennas up and follow wearebatman.com or simply buy a BD or DVD at the site's store.

If anyone here would like a copy, I managed to wrestle 4 DVDs and 10 BDs away from Brett this past Thursday. My intention is to have them on hand for Thursday but I will keep you posted if there are any left over. I can ship them immediately. There seems to be delays on the website depending on whether Brett is traveling promoting the movie or not.
Just some thoughts....my ticket sales are currently at 158. I can't believe the support I've had from my friends and family in spreading the word. You never know how much word of mouth your gonna get or how many people can spare the time on a Thursday school night. We had an initial threshold (the number I had to hit to guarantee a screening) of 71. We hit that in two weeks. But I didn't know if sales would fizzle from that point or not. I never anticipated the sales doubling and then some. I feel overwhelmed and grateful to know so many amazing people both at home and here. Life is good!!
Just an FYI, Legends of the Knight launches on a MUCH broader scale tomorrow on iTunes, Amazon and Google Play. Learn more about it at WeareBatman.com
