I sure do! If I write a movie and get 5% of producer's net, I get it
forever. Of course 5% of producer's net is **** all, since movie accounting
is specifically designed to make sure the movie makes no profit while making
the producer and the studio extremely rich (which is why my 5% is known as
'monkey points') but the point remains.
