Biz, 2/7.

"The key to a movie's success is the level of awareness that exists for the project well in advance of the advertising blitz that takes place in the week or so preceding the actual release date."

"All of these online only - no broadcast." At Fimoculous, Rex marvels at all the big guys producing TV for the Internet.
