Re: Movie Recommendation Station

I think that a film should be made about BTC-E's Mr $102. Bitcoin-funded effort that ends up making an epic loss. Tickets could be 20 cents.

I'm guessing there will be a crypto documentary sooner than later.

Yeah, I wonder how long until Bitcoin is mentioned in a movie, all I know is that my crypto is on Benedict Cumberbatch being in the cast.

I think there was one already in the works and there was a thread here about it.

There's a couple of documentaries and a film in the works about Silk Road and Bitcoin. I wonder how they'll make the film work exactly?

Yeah, I heard about the Silk Road rights being optioned, but I have no clue. Would it follow DPR's quest in making Silk Road and his eventual demise? Who knows... It'd be an interesting story, though.

I can see them turning it into a crappy drama. They'll probably give DPR a conflicted love interest who finds out about his double life haha.

Starring Vince Vaughan...

Haha, with his Vince Vaughan face and his Vince Vaughan acting.

And his heartfelt Vince Vaughan reasoning and explanations. I can definitely see VV in that role.

I can't. Who would Vince be and who would play DPR?

Seems the guy who played Bill from Bill and Ted is directing the documentary: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/alexwinter/deep-web-the-untold-story-of-bitcoin-and-the-silk

And Dennis Lehane the guy who wrote Shutter Island is writing the movie: http://www.imdb.com/news/ni56311898/

He'd feature somewhere. Obviously Benedict Cumberbatch would play DPR - he'll shift shapes, it's his type of role.

After seeing what DPR looks like, someone like Emile Hirsch would be more appropriate I think.
