That’s called a sunk cost fallacy. I mean, there’s probably a world in which if you start pushing out a bunch of bad Star Wars games you make at least some money out of the license for a little while, but I feel like we’ve lived in that world before and it didn’t go well for anybody back then.

Speaking of fallacies at…

Too bad he can’t go on a quail hunt with Cheney.

Are you that one-dimensional yourself, or do you enjoy things outside of your paid job too?

comprised = composed of.

shout out to the secret service members who havent put a bullet in his head but sleep at night knowing that you have to take a bullet for him.

Are they protesting themselves?  That would indeed be very French.

I am extremely confused, and this article does not clarify. Did the board resign in protest of the nominations? Or did the board make all those nominations, and then resign to escape the inevitable backlash and firing, as a final fuck-you to the French film community?

And I’d rather be done with Trump.

So, just to be clear: Another four years of Trump is preferable to Bloomberg?
