I have been involved in the development of a motion picture that is making its debut around the country today, March 9, 2007. It is being distributed by 20th Century Fox in a limited release. How long it stays in theaters depends on how many people see the film this weekend. So if you need something to do this weekend, I would appreciate you going to see the film.

The movie is called "The Ultimate Gift". Its a great story (based on the James Stovall book of the same name) that delivers a great message and is suitable for family viewing. It stars James Garner, Brian Dennehy, Drew Fuller, Bill Cobbs, Lee Meriwether, Ali Hillis and Acadamy Award nominee Abigail Breslin - the little girl in "Little Miss Sunshine". Take some tissues - I have seen it twice and have shed a tear or two both times! Check it out at The Ultimate Gift Experience

You can find theaters near you that are showing the film by going to Fox Film Fund. If you enter your zip code, the site will show you theaters in your area showing the film. If you then click on a theater, you will be directed to either Fandango.com or MovieTickets.com where you can buy tickets online (you are not required to buy tickets online - they will be available at the theaters). You must go to Fox Film Fund first to get the right code box to appear on Fandango or MovieTickets.

If you buy tickets online, there will be a place to enter a code - a place labeled as "Organization Code" or "Organization/Church Code" (do not use "Promotional Code"). If you enter the code 500758 - $1/ticket of your purchase will go to support a designated charity. In this case, it is The Tanner Seebaum Foundation, a small Denver-based foundation that helps to fund research and find cures for children's brain cancer and brain tumors. Ticket price is still the same - you just get to help a good cause by purchasing online and using code 500758. You can read about this foundation at Tanner Seebaum Foundation ependymoma brain tumor.

As for Eggman on the Silver Screen - if you see the movie - wait for the last bit of the credits - my name will scroll by.

Thanks for reading all this and for seeing the movie. Thanks in advance for buying tickets online and supporting this movie and this cause.

I am not affiliated with The Tanner Seebaum Foundation - they are friends of mine. And as for proper disclosure - yes, I own a very minor fractional share of the movie. Trust me, it will take all of you seeing the movie many times before I will ever see a dime.

Please see it and enjoy.

is there any way we can see the movie across the ocean? or is it just in fine merica land at the moment..?


Unfortunately only a limited release in the US right now. The book is available all around the world and has been translated into many languages. Short book - fast read.

I figured that ...Im just really reluctant to involve CLB and EBMM other than one off pieces but I appreciate the gesture


Could of been a good way to get more $$$ out of us Knuckleheads!! And get us all to support the CLB Foundation. Sorry it didn't work out.

I saw the trailer for this movie and it looked really good. Actually, I could have gotten free tickets for opening day but the theater that it was opening in was about 2+ hours from me so, no go. It looks good and I'll make a note to see it. Thanks for the heads-up.

BTW, everyone who has seen Rocky VI has seen the back of my head in one of the restaurant scenes. Yeah, I know, it's quick and hard to tell it's me but I have the pay stub to prove it. Overall it was a great experience although no percentage in the film was offered. <sigh>
