New Line sucks its own dick

Guess what happens when a big, vertically integrated conglomerate funds your movie? You sign a contract, they undersell, to themselves, all the merchandise upon which your percentage is based, then when you hire a lawyer, they make you out to be a greedy bastard.

Peter Jackson made a ground-breaking set of films, and helped New Line and its subsidiaries make a gatrillion dollars. By allowing only itself to bid on the merchandise, they maximized their own profit at the cost of Jackson's. Who's greedy?
