Business and Production Development by Barry Ira Geller
The entire exploitation
rights to the novel, both theatrical and all other multi-media rights are free and clear, with complete lineaged copyright documention signed by Doubleday and Roger Zelazny. All of which is currently available for sale or development. "In a distinguished career which produced many bold, award-winning works, this towering tale of invention and adventure may be Roger Zelazny's single most brilliant achievement." (-- Amazon Review)
During the period of 1978-1980, (the last time the project was publically promoted and prior to the CIA story covered elswhere on this site), professional associations included: a seasoned financial manager who managed four Studio heads, a Major Studio promise of distribution, an Oscar-winning actor's promise of participation, an Oscar-winning Makeup Special effects director's employment, the employment of the creative artist/designer responsible for 50% of the Comics Industry, two of the world's top science fiction writers consulting, two of the world's leading achitects, and last but not least the personal involvement of one of the world's most famous inventors.It was described as a property whose vast resources both creative and financial talent appreciated.
In late 2001 the project came in 2nd place with the SCIFI Channel as its next "Dune" series; unfortunately for all concerned management chose the more cerebral Amber Series novels (also by Zelazny), sunk a not-so-small fortune into its purchase and development, but the ambitious project floundered, sputtered, and died before even seeing pre-production. Thus sadly ended that Channel's foray into major Sci-Fi novel adaptation -- perhaps even including the tenure of the executives involved.
Here we are today in 2011-2012. The Lord of Light story's dramatic power, energy, and flight of Life Force still exists, stronger than ever, ready to be developed for today's Interactive, MultiMedia Content Marketplace. As if the marketplace itself has caught up with the dreams of the original producer. I want to take this fantastically written original story into the realms of our archetypal imagination utilizing the modern technologies to finally allow the birth of all the potential markets and income streams which this property can and will ensue.
