Hello my name is Stian Henriksen and I`m from norway.
Me and some of my friends riding snowmobiles, and we are quite good.
So I had a crazy plan, what if we caught it on tape and start a production of it?
Remember that its not so much snow in Norway so it wouldn`t be a new "slednecks" if you know what that is.
I have a new consept

The movie will be great, but it cost much to make a movie like this, and I know that people in Norway will buy it, but will anyone buy it in America?
the movie will be cheap around (7dollars), and since I have made much good movies I have the equipment.

So my questions is:

Whould you buy a norwegian snowmobile movie?

(I know that its a tought question, but I have know)

Thank you for reading, and sorry about my bad english, i promise that It will be better in the movie.

No idea about America, as I don't live there. But I think the answer is no, people would not pay for it. Just look at the amount of stuff available on YouTube, for FREE and you are wanting to charge? It's not going to work I think.

Unfortunately this "get-rich scheme nr.23673" is another one that is not going anywhere.

If it's any good it'll end up on YouTube and torrent sites within hours of release anyway.

I'll tell you where I am. It's not an investment opportunity, so for that reason I'm out.

By not convincing Dave Brockman that his business is a viable investment opportunity Raipasfilms has already lost one Dragon. Will any of the remaining dragons see promise in his business based around short films? Mark tries to get things back on track by asking Raipasfilms about his business projections...... *cue dragons Den music* :p

I'll buy that for seven dollars. My favourite movie is Diehard 2 and my favouriye scene is the bit where Diehard is chasing Major Grants bad guys on the snowmobiles and Diehard doesnt realise that hes shooting blanks. Its brilliant!

A good snowmobile movie would probaly sell in Canada. We are snowmobile crazy (it was invented here) and it is used commercialy, for getting around in the far north and for fun. The army uses them in the north and most police forces outside of the cities have snowmobile units. There are thousands of miles of dedicated snowmobile trails and multi clubs. The clubs would likely buy a good film as would some of the resorts that cater to snowmobiles and winter sports.
Many of the northern US States are the same.
