'c'mon, just one episode'

No. Weeded Out can't be made for copyright reasons. Also, one might say that Weeded Out has already been made as the film within the film of The Dakumentary. The book should be out soonish, particularly if Barbara agrees to help me edit the blog etc. As I say, I'd dig watching the Just Like Yesterday movie if people made it. I could essentially transcribe my radio play version from my Bandcamp page.

Weeded out is just me filming myself walking around Wellington. Theres probably no copyright issues there, thinking about it.

They didn't ask me to produce it because they knew I'd say no. People thought they could coax me into it, so I wanted to painstakingly explain the legalities. Something for the film students to learn from: how to negotiate. Squeeze every penny! Antagonising the conservatives = more hate comments on my blog.
