You know, just a thought:
It appears that with Gods, you have a really have a complex story to tell, one that just might be too much to tell in a traditional movie format. You mention there being a television version, why not take a shot at doing a complete edit that way? I mean, obviously it's not going to pop up on NBC next week, but it would be sort of an interesting experimental approach. It sounds like you have 3 1/2 hours of material that you wanted to use in the movie, so maybe you have a total of around 4 hours of usable material to work with? So why not take the material and re-edit it into a serial of sorts, with about ten 25 minute episodes, or 5 or so 45 minute episodes? There are several online video streaming places now, such as that GBS.tv place that showed the rough cut of Cobbler. Why not shop it out to GBS and places like that? Run it over the course of a month or two as a serial drama or whatever the hell it is.
