adam2323 Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 The body is owned by several parties - investors. Minnow only own the film rights I think. And you know this to be a fact?.......sources? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 If Minnow only owns the film rights - what business do they have telling Dyer to be quiet about his dead bigfoot? Dyer showing his "dead bigfoot" doesn't change what's on film - and the film can still be shown.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dyer showing his "dead bigfoot" doesn't change what's on film - and the film can still be shown.. It's possible that the original NDA had a clause that stated he was not allowed to reveal any info on anything that was filmed or encountered during the filming. If he indeed shot the BF he filmed, he wouldn't be able to show it to the public. I think the tent video was a breach of the NDA...but it had leaked out..that's when Dyer went public with the admission of actually shooting it. Just speculation, but this seems to be a reasonable explanation of the nexus between Dyer's limitations and Minnow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 And you know this to be a fact?.......sources? Sorry. I am tired and cant off the top of my head remember where this was stated. I think RD has said it in his radio shows? And I think I have seen it written somewhere too but cant remember where I am afraid. But anyhow, why do you care when you think there is no body anyhow??

Just speculation, but this seems to be a reasonable explanation of the nexus between Dyer's limitations and Minnow. First of all, if memory serves - that video was not leaked - Dyer released it himself under a fake name (and was caught). IF Minnow films only owns the film rights - they can only force him to stay quiet about the show and what is contained within the show - which is the footage he leaked. That would not preclude him from having scientists view the body, examine it - and write up their papers on the "dead bigfoot". It should also not stop Dyer from telling the world and showing his dead bigfoot. Do you really think the Production Company were so forward thinking they actually put together a contract that said, "If you shoot a bigfoot during filming, you are not allowed to release photos or any information about the examination to the world until the film comes out"... If they did - they are the first ones I have heard of that though that far ahead. AND if they did think this far ahead - why the report of the angry production person when the gun went off and killed the bigfoot?? Also, don't you think the release of this "body" to the world would make this the most popular film to hit the screen --- ever?? You couldn't pay for that kind of advertising... That is money in the bank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The movie is free to be viewed on BBC America and other stations first, I am sure it will be in netflix as well, but I do not think it is going to be in all of our theatres. After the shooting Dyer and Minnow and other parties were said to meet with lawyers, who knows what kind of negotiations took place.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You couldn't pay for that kind of advertising... That is money in the bank. Exactly. Minnow Films applied for grants for funding. If they actually filmed a real Sasquatch, in HD, moving, eating ribs, and getting shot by RD, wouldn't they shop it around with the BBC Storyville, for which it was produced, NatGeo, the History Channel, Animal Planet, and a host of other networks for big bucks? Why would they release it at the TFF? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is money in the bank. That's not what I was implying. What I'm saying here is that Minnow may have had an NDA which was very inclusive and precluded Dyer from saying ANYTHING related to the film project and ANYTHING that may transpired. Do you get my drift here>>>>even though they never imagined a shooting would take place, nonetheless that event would fall under the sanctions and terms of the NDA. Just a logical take.

Guest WldHrtRnch Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 ^^and therefore RD would be in violation of the NDA, and Minnow would have precedence to take legal action. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 I think Dyer did say he was in violation..even with the tent video. After that went viral..he felt that he had to fess up on the purported shooting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
