Episode 211 - Moviepass & Mogul - How Web3 & AI are Revolutionizing the Film Industry - from Decentralized Film Finance to Onchain Ownership
Today we welcome Stacy Spikes, CEO and Co-Founder of MoviePass and the driving force behind Mogul, a bold new platform that brings together blockchain and film to give fans real ownership and influence in the entertainment industry.
Stacy’s story is one of grit, vision, and reinvention. From humble beginnings in the industry to launching one of the fastest-growing subscription services in history, he’s always looked for ways to challenge the status quo. Now, he’s turning to Web3 to build something even bigger.
You’ll learn:
- 🎥 Why MoviePass co-founder Stacy Spikes is betting on blockchain to reimagine audience engagement, and how Web3 could unlock a more inclusive, equitable future for the film industry
- 🌍 Why Web3 tools like onchain ownership, DAOs, and decentralized film finance (DeFiFi) are poised to transform how movies are made, funded, and experienced, and what it means for fans and creators alike.
- 🔁 How Stacy rebuilt MoviePass from the ground up after being ousted from his own company, and what his journey reveals about resilience, leadership, and second chances in the age of Web3.
- ⛓ What drew Stacy to the Sui blockchain, and how their partnership with Animoca Brands came to life.
--Key Takeaways--
🎬 Web3 can help break down the barriers in Hollywood: From decentralized film finance to DAO-driven communities, blockchain primitives can help creators bypass traditional gatekeepers and build a more open, participatory film ecosystem.
🧩 Why Mogul chose Sui: Accessibility is everything: With features like social login and seamless UX, Sui helps make Mogul’s platform accessible to fans of all backgrounds, whether or not they know it’s powered by Web3. For those who want to dive deeper, onchain ownership and digital assets await.
🤖 AI won’t replace movie magic, but it can enhance it: While audiences crave the raw, human performance of real actors and stunts, AI has a role to play in elevating the craft, from backgrounds to effects, without compromising authenticity.
