Shochiku Film Fund

[drainer@mpinet.net]

 I'd be willing to invest if there was a favorable rate of return. But given
that the investment starts at Y100,000 per person and they expect to raise
Y100-200 million from it I don't see it as much more than a means of getting
your name on the DVD sleeve, unless you were to put in at least 10x  the
minimum amount required....
