Wall Street was the real winner of the GameStop saga
It was a weird, fun ride. My writing partner Lutz and I work in tech, but have a real passion for filmmaking. We lost some money on $GME, so we had to tell the story from our point of view.<p>The result is STONKS, a comedy/drama feature screenplay [0], fictional but inspired by the GME events, and a love letter of sorts to WSB. We queried Hollywood producers but were ignored; we shared on WSB itself but we were insta-banned and never told why (but given the founder sold the rights to his life story to Hollywood [1], we can make an informed guess).<p>Anyway, here it is. Feedback welcome.<p>[0] <a href="https://gabrielgambetta.com/files/STONKS-2022-02-02.pdf" rel="nofollow">https://gabrielgambetta.com/files/STONKS-2022-02-02.pdf</a><p>[1] <a href="https://www.wsj.com/articles/reddits-wallstreetbets-founder-sells-life-story-to-movie-producer-ratpac-entertainment-11612440001" rel="nofollow">https://www.wsj.com/articles/reddits-wallstreetbets-founder-...</a>
