Is this bit of philanthropy being flaunted now because he wants some collateral name recognition and attention for his screening room pitch? bunch of news articles tagging him with that and the cancer money.. (for the record, I know who he is, just wondering about the timing of the two subjects -- it seems too coincidental)
On CNBC he claimed he had spent most of his time for the last 3 years on this project.
yeah probably a p/r firm job. a well paid one at that.
This is incredibly awesome. I would guess it's what a lot of people dream of doing if they had the money. Sean is tremendously great for going through with it!
Oh, we're still paying attention to Sean Parker?
