Bankruptcy.
His new book that he kept hyping up for, like, a whole year has three reviews on Amazon. One of them is by me and I didn't even read the book (I felt sorry for Monroe when I saw only one review posted initially so I gave it a five-star, glowing review just to give his confidence a nice boost!). The other two are by Monroe (posing yet again as someone else) and Debbie Bordelon, so we can strike out both of them from being objective.
Basically no one has read his book, I've searched various places including the databases at Barnes and Noble and have been unsuccessful. His other two books are now out of print - supposedly because he's going to release "revised" editions, but really it's because he wasn't selling enough copies to pay for the Pay-On-Demand monthly/annual fees. Combined with his failing band, failing business school and multitudes of other failing businesses, the poor bloke's gone bankrupt is as good as I can guess.
It's a shame he didn't soak up the "peanut gallery" while he could because by effectively eliminating Giorgio's site through the use of his lawyer parents, and thereby causing you, me and all the other "fans" to leave the forum, he's killed off the only (minimal) fame he ever had. A year ago he was infamous, now he's nothing.

Yes, we were his only press. (Well, beyond the idiotic stuff that he'd put on the free press release type boards.) We were just about his only fans. (Beyond a multitude of Mony's personalities, poor Debby, and a wingnut or two that hung out with him.
He probably is getting the movie made. As posted before, (but I don't know if it's still here), he was hooking up with this crappy wake-board video company. If I recall correctly, only one or two of their wake-board videos were even on DVD. Most were only on VHS. They specialize in going out and videotaping people wake-boarding. BWHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!
Yes, he had mommy and daddy close down the repository of his scams and failures. God forbid someone documented the lies and idiocy. Sadly, that was the ONLY thing that made him at all interesting. Now it's gone, and so is the modicum of notoriety he had. No he's just another poor, no-talent actor that tries to feed his ego by putting up a couple of credits on IMDB.
His failure is complete.

I doubt the movie will ever be made. His film production company's website hasn't been updated in probably close to a year. His blog is basically inactive. His site is never updated. His band is dead.

MA2006,
In general, I would tend to agree with you, however, from what I've seen of this production/"film" company, they may still try to work with him.
They seem to be the type of company that, even is we wanted to do a movie about screwing squirels...ON A WAKEBOARD, they'd come out and film it, and put it on VHS.
I figure they will front him little or no money to do this. They will only film it on some lake in Orlando. I wouldn't be surprised of mommy and dadums gave him a little cash to do it. (After all, getting him out of their basement is PRICELESS.)
So, he'll get enough to go down there, get a few acting-wannabees like himself to join in, and make a movie that makes, "Windy City Heat", look like a Lucasfilm production. Then, when they pay a local, old theater to play it one night, he'll sit there in rapture, and proclaim several Oscars and Grammys are on his doorstep. He makes Brian Peppers look ultimately cool.

It's a tragic story indeed, one that will make his wakeboarding themed biopic all the poigant I'm sure. He didn't know what he had until had gone.
It's just rather annoying that he seems to have taken Giorgio down with him.
