I don't think "Anon 3-Dec" is commenting on the quality or merits of lottery funded films? Fact is the lottery funds do go into films where the cultural remit is more important than commercial potential...so to base a profitability model for all UK films made from 2003-2010 on them is surely flawed. Through the work I do (hence I am another "Anon"...) I have seen the budgets of some of the films made with lottery funding and there is no doubt that budgets could be tighter towards the upper end of the awards scale, meaning the lottery then helps more films get made and all those films perform better.
