Jim has had to be involved in hundreds of lawsuits. He has never lost. Not one. With companies 100x larger than Arri. This is not one he is looking forward to.

This situation has really taken a toll on him because of the great respect he has always had for Arri. The 2nd time I met him he showed me his collection of ARRI cameras, which he was very proud of. He used to wear an ARRI hat to the office... seriously.

That said.., Jim is a fighter. He will fist fight in a second if someone is taking advantage of what he has created or if his team has been wronged. I have seen it in the past. Trust me... it never has ends well for the other side. If there is one thing I have learned hanging out with him for the past 6 years, don't ever piss him off.

as Jim always says... Put your helmets on.

If I have learned one thing in my life,
Is that focus on your work, not on external forces.
 
the whole RED community is with you Jim...
 
So when is David Fincher making it to a film? on an EPIC Monstro
 
Must be some serious stuff. It's always disappointing when this kind of thing happens =/
 
DA-AMN... I guess this is what you guys meant a few weeks back about getting your war hats on... I wonder who broke into Red years ago and stole your prototypes...
 
Even if someone stole Jim's IP, they would need you, Graeme, Deanan, Brent and everyone else at RED to try and knock you guys off!

Karma is a bitch.. And I am sure the people involved in stealing Jim's IP will get what they deserve.
 
Thanks for the support Adam. This whole thing just stinks.

My sincere desire is that Jim and Jarred delegate someone else to pursue the legal wranglings full time and that TRUSTED person
allows JIM to focus his energy on the positive aspects of life, both personal and business (Red).

Time and energy lost looking backwards to past events in litigation is a Vampire to creativity and productivity.

Jim should be truly flattered he has something worth stealing, reassess security going forward, use this tragedy
to further elevate his team, and let the legal dogs do the fighting...

Jim and the Red Team have the special ingredient 99% of all other companies are missing- truly, I wish you had public stock!
Keep your eyes on the goal and best wishes for everyone there to KNOW they are making positive impacts on thousands of lives
others have said would be impossible in the USA right now.

I am celebrating Red's achievements in the midst of these events with some nice wine,...

CHEERS RED TEAM!

Sorry. You can thank Arri that my full time job is now dealing with Michael Bravin and Arri. Nothing else.
