Topic: Could we crowdfund a movie about Satoshi Nakamoto? (Read 734 times)
We can, but then again what would it be? If it's a documentary, we can work that out, however if it's going to be a biography, we can't make that since we don't know a thing about Satoshi, not even what he looks like, other than the fact that he is the one who created bitcoin. If we're going to create a movie, it has to be something that doesn't have to compete with other movies in its category.
You must into script and movie production for you to reason along this line. It is funny though how you have planned everything so well. The movie won't be played well because nobody knows much about Satoshi Nakamoto
That money could be better spent elsewhere. I saw the recent movie Silk Road. It was an independent production, and therefore failed to garner much hype. I felt bad, because the movie was 99% accurate about Ross Ulbricht and the dark markets. But the problem is that it is extremely hard for the independent productions to attract large viewership. Hollywood is being dominated by a handful of powerful producers. And this is why I am of the opinion that crowdfunding the movie may be a bad idea.
Satoshi Nakamoto is just a name given to identify the creator of bitcoin. No one really knows if it is one person, group, or maybe a company that developed it way back in 2009. It's just the creative imagination of many people because Satoshi is a name of a person. It's like making a movie about history that didn't happen at all in the past. It would be a shame if the real creator(s) of bitcoin sees it. If Satoshi really wants to reveal himself in public, he should have done it already. Maybe he knows that he won't be able to live peacefully if people know about his identity.
Your idea is to move this market to a different area, reach more audiences and make it known more by people, but we do not have enough knowledge to shoot this movie. How can you make a movie about someone you don't know who they are and how can you present this movie to people. While there have been a lot of fraud news lately, we shouldn't risk ourselves by telling people that are perceived as deceiving people and unrealistic things.
We have to admit that the idea of the opening post was actually quite good by making a movie about Satoshi Nakamoto. It can make Bitcoin
more recognized by many people, and can also provide education about the history of Bitcoin. But the problem is that there isn't much information
about Satoshi Nakamoto that can be known and told in the movie. Because without accurate information, it is feared that the movie will mislead
many people. So, for now, the idea of making the movie should not be realized first.

As a woman, I would like them to make a Satoshi movie, I would like to find out that Satoshi was not only a man but a group, and that there was participation of women, I see him as a very smart group from the NSA. , or maybe a group of scientists from NASA, I think it is difficult to make the film for not knowing who Satoshi is.
Lol it would be either fun or waste of time. Steve Spelberg will not waste his time for this project
You say it as if Spielberg spent all of his time making only good movies. Do you recall Indiana Jones movie "Kingdom of the Crystal Skull"? (I won't be surprised if you don't. I'm trying to erase it from my memory, too.)
Satoshi loves to be anonymous and live in the shadow. Creating a movie about him against all of his free will. We should respect his wish. He has given us the greatest invention ever
We have movies about Jesus and the early Christians, right?
I know, it's not the perfect analogy, but if we can have blockbuster movies with a raccoon and a talking tree as main characters, who's to say that a movie about Satoshi can't work as well?
The story about Satoshi cant be true if made in movie, his identity is highly concealed, cant be traced and no one wants to talk about it even from the forum that was said to found by him. Somehow I feel he is more than an individual and anonymous story was written by them. The documentary on the development of bitcoin will be more educative and efficient in promoting the space among newbies.
Well, I've never thought of the founder Satoshi Nakamoto as not being a single person. I feel more comfort in him being an individual than a group though, I believe he or she must have a co-developers in the bitcoin dream but then, the way they've been able to handle the secrecy behind this mysterious name @Satoshi Nakamoto and his person has been a thing of wonder that, the story behind the development of bitcoin would be far too fictitious on his person. Almost nothing is known.Come to think of it, is the founder a male or female?
Anyway, a movie of this nature would advertise bitcoin to a far extent and would bring forth some certain truth and realisation of citizens of actions on truths about bitcoin but, it would be delay a lot as to its origin. Though, I think people would be a lot more interested in the movie.
I like the idea itself, but it's not very clear to be honest how it should look. It would be logical to shoot such a film after revealing the identity or a group of people who could at least make something clear about themselves and their motives. Yes, we already understand and know something ourselves, but these are rather assumptions of third parties, and when you shoot a biographical film, it would be nice to know who it was filmed about. On the other hand, it may be a film in the blockchain in general and its history, but there are already quite a few such films, as I understand it.
I wonder what genre of movie it would be to make it interesting for non crypto people too.
If it would be a docummentary movie then I think it would have to be educational so the newbies would also learn from it that up till now we still haven't found the real creator.

What you are suggesting will be a fictional movie rather than near to something real. There are already many documentaries which you might have seen or check out. They are not Satoshi-centered but related to the birth of bitcoin. There are many projects which do crowdfunding for new movies and I guess they can help out or plan for something like this. Moviebloc MBL is one of them, they already have an OTT platform and it will be easier for these types of projects to make a movie or documentary.
I think you're right, creating a movie about someone doesn't know the full identity will be a wrong move. Since we don't know her/him it will be fictional movie rather than something real. But movie about Satoshi needs to be real to get the attention of viewers, people are interested about Satoshi since he/she still unknown. Those documentaries you telling would be nice rather than to have a movie without enough information about the main character. I think it's possible to crowdfund a movie about Satoshi Nakamoto since he/she still intriguing and for sure all the people in bitcoin would be excited for this. But before doing a movie we needs to have a profound informations about Satoshi Nakamoto so I think looking for her/him and agreeing her/him story to be shared should be the first move. 
How can you make a movie about someone who nobody knows anything about?
All we have about are a bunch of emails, bitcointalk posts and so on.
Nobody know if he was an individual or a group of people.
I guess a movie could be about hal Finney or someone else who is known, and who interacted with him online.
Or a very talented writer could make something entirelydifferent

I was just going to point it out. How can you make a movie about Satoshi Nakamoto, someone who is anonymous and nobody knows? How would you gather the necessary information needed to make a movie? How would you gather his biography? How would date the plot of the movie since you don't even know the age of the Satoshi?
I do believe that if this will possible, however it will be, there would be a lot of work to be done. One would need quite a lot of resources to accomplish a feat as this.

it would be wrong to do the filming but there are no resource persons, and the bitcoin story is just fictional. If there is a story and plot error I think it will impact bitcoin on the crypto pasa because it concerns bitcoin. so it may not be effective to make a film about bitcoin before knowing the real source All we have about are a bunch of emails, bitcointalk posts and so on.

I think it's about the money! So whoever hit a billion-dollar wallet first, should give 10-20 million for the movie. Maybe Spielberg needs more money, but any billionaire could handle any request!
We all to crowdfund the movie will not be right, but I guess some smart contracts would be able to calculate all investments, and in the end, everyone would get a share of the project... classical ICO, or IEO...
Jokes on aside, we should respect the privacy of the creator! But that doesn't mean that some imaginative person can't deliver a story that could look like some real thing! Artist freedom... somehow I am sure we will see something about this very soon. Crypto, especially Bitcoin, is becoming more popular, and movie industry will use it!

I am a professional screenwriter and have compiled many Hollywood blockbusters. This is a very, very good movie theme. How can we connect? Please let me know by email. [email protected]
I don't think that it would be a good idea, we don't know the story of Satoshi Nakamoto and if we are going to create a love of his life then for sure it will all just a lie, we will just be based on some other opinions and from not accurate sources. I don think that Satoshi Nakamoto will be happy once he watched a movie of his life in all lies. Maybe we need first to Identify who Satoshi Nakamoto is, who is the real Satoshi Nakamoto, and interview his life because he is the one who creates the successful bitcoin.
I also agree, guys! Satoshi's character has little historical data to give him life in a movie. Unless the emotions are collected for each line that he wrote in bitcointalk and the times that he shared email with the other personalities that he maintained close communication so that the writers can create a character based on his ideas and temperament. That was the reality of him, an enigmatic and brilliant man. I think we will be satisfied if the story is based on real events.
For my part, I would love to see a good movie about Satoshi in his honor because without a doubt he will be the most important man of the 21st century as bitcoin becomes more popular and it has allowed the development of a new economy with cryptocurrencies.
