Cloud Starchaser to take on Tucker Max

Oct 13, 2005 13:59

Hey I just ran into some interesting stuff: apparently Cloud Starchaser, the leader of Heroic Destiny Squad has made a bet with Tucker Max, the guy who runs www.tuckermax.com over who can get a T.V. show first (and it has to be on a major broadcast or cable network.

Check out these conditions though: if Cloud wins, Tucker has to appear on his show for an episode and do or act or say whatever Cloud wants him to. If Tucker wins, Cloud has to get a vasectomy! Talk about your lopsided bets!

Plus it would seem Tucker has quite the advantage: he has a popular website, two books published, and has sold a pitch and turned down a pilot offer from NBC in addition to having agents and all. Cloud doesn't have any agents and is making a pilot on his own with help from his friends (I hear Magnus Rock of Red Line Studios is producing though so at least it's not like some Handicam job.) All Cloud's made so far though are like a few shorts which are on his website, they're funny but not the level of quality you could sell to a network. But I hear he's putting like $50,000 into his pilot so maybe he has a shot, after all Clerks was made for only $26,000 and look where that went.

It all started over a message board thread on the Tucker Max Message Board, here is the url: http://messageboard.tuckermax.com/showthread.php?t=5303 where Cloud was basically in a flame war against the entire message board. It's kind of long but at the end Cloud calls Tucker out that he will get a T.V. show first and they make the bet.

It sounds nuts, but they're drawing up contracts and everything. Knowing Cloud he is pretty crazy and if he lost he'd probably get the vasectomy just to prove he's not a pussy. This kid is out of control but I wish him good luck.
