The really scary thing about what she's trying to do is that she'll be inundated with thousands of crappy scripts being pitched by really creepy people. I sure hope she knows what she's doing.

If I won 67mil I would definitely invest at least some of it in movies. I wouldn't give up screenwriting, though; that kind of money would allow me to do it full-time, which is my dream!

If I had the money to throw into one movie project, it would be Joss Whedon's "Fray", his futuristic vampire slayer graphic novel. That book is just howling for a movie adaptation.

with 67 million dollars, I'd invest in touring theatre companies and art/theatre educational programs in fledging public schools in American inner cities. God knows these kids needs the arts.

and of course, with some money left over, I'll use them to finance and produce my own films and stage plays, too.

I would create a children's theater company that produces high quality stage adaptations of movies.
I would love to se my 9 year old and his friends do the Matrix or Star Wars on stage. They would rock it and it would be so much fun to build the props and sets, create fx, and see the kids really take on the dramatic moments.

If I won 67 million dollars, I would hire a competent estate manager.

IF I won the 67 million dollar lottery I'd probably give most of it to producers to help finance scripts I've written, AFTER I'd helped out some family memembers and a guy I made a promise to myself and God I'd help if I actually had some real $$.

I'd love to see some of my work on the silver screen, but I also know there are pros out there who do this for a living and I'd like to work with them and watch them make magic out of my scripts.

I'd hire Richard Kelly or Christopher Nolan to cast and direct my movie.

I'd focus on doing a handful of sub-10mil genre pics -- employ hungry new talent in all areas that have the skills and the drive to do their best for the project. Pay them a fair wage plus profit-sharing for everyone.

And yeah, some of those projects would be my own stuff.

67 mil? Consider me retired.

First, I'd make one of my movies that I was confident in - some fluff that can hardly miss, then I'd make something from a good writer who has had successes.
Then I'd make something else of mine. Hopefully at that point - 2 years - I can save my money and use someone else's for something Cameron-huge.

I actually think about playing the lottery because of that.
