TheMoviesClub is an exciting initiative, to setup a member driven movie studio.
On TheMoviesClub:
- Members can become emotionally and financially involved at all levels of the movie
- Scouting, buying, releasing, and influencing real independent movies
- Members can profit from the success of these movies or re-invest
It is a co-operative that lets movie fans buy independent movie rights, and manage the release at cinemas and on DVD. The club is owned, funded and managed online entirely by its members. Our aim is to recruit at least 50,000 film enthusiasts from across the world: to create a member driven movie Studio, all for 15 membership. For the price of a new DVD you can be part of movie history.
TheMoviesClub was setup early 2008 as a microfinance initiative. What is unique is that it is built entirely on the concept that the members know best, through collective decision making. Wisdom of the crowds, so to speak. All members are equal partners, so if you own a share then no one else has more power than you.
Like the Music industry the existing business models in the movie industry are broken. So TheMoviesClub sets out to prove that social commerce can work better than existing traditional models. Who says that a Hollywood studio mogul knows more than say 50,000 plus members of the public.
