They gave them the festival rights for free. The subject matter was touchy, so i was surprised.

Does it have to be Taboo? couldn't you make a game like Taboo with a different title and buzzer? I'm sure you thought about this already. But I don't think it would be that big a deal to substitute but I haven't read the script so I could be totally wrong. Think how fun it will be to make up your own game!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
