I’m not so sure how much facts actually matter, but if they do, the fact that Gran Turismo’s opening Friday is a cumulative total of all its preview showings (of which there were several in the weeks prior, not to mention the normal Thursday showings) plus its normal Friday receipts means that it almost certainly…

Especially considering that after he finished the film... he died.
If you are an investor giving an 87 year old director millions of dollars to realize their vision, is it “ageist” to ask them to have a plan in case something happens, or is it just “sensible?”
she calls it a “state secret,” adding that, “Hollywood is ageist.” Friedkin, who was 87 when he died
Exactly, and this is how they provide much-needed context around their demands so that the rest of the public knows that what they’re asking for isn’t unreasonable and is entirely doable for these studios and distributors.
and this is why it’s a good thing he went. hell of a pull quote.
“It’s hard to get a man to understand something when his paycheck depends on him not understanding it.”
Deadline isn’t “their famous relationships with the upper echelons of the industry.” They are part of PMC and PMC owns Dick Clark Productions which is a signatory of the AMPTP. Deadline is a mouthpiece of the group they are a part of.
“I was just thinking what an interesting concept it is to eliminate the writer from the artistic process. If we can just get rid of these actors and directors, maybe we’ve got something here.”
Sometimes I like to pretend that this is some Banksy-level shit musk is pulling, showing how fucking pointless CEOs are and how we should really be working to eliminate people like him from society. But a second later I snap back to reality and remember that, no, elon is just a loser who would be considered dangerous…
That’s kind of my thought. If a show did just well enough to get renewed and then hadn’t even started production before the strike, is it worthwhile to keep everyone involved tied to that contract for an indefinite period of time? If season 2 of The Peripheral isn’t going to start filming until 2025 or something, is…
He’s not getting a bloody nose. The Mouse is gonna run DeSantis down with his car.
Barbie aside since it obviously made a ton of money, but this trend is one my theories as to why movie box offices are down. There’s little reason to go to a theater to see a movie when you can just wait a few weeks and watch it at home. Home entertainment equipment is good enough nowadays that its just not worth it…
The producers of The Demeter should have simply waited. Just because it’s a horror flick shouldn’t have limited it to a summer showing. It’s all dark and serious and, most important, British. Perfect for Fall.
John Cusack was already the lead of Better Off Dead when he was 19, only two years after his debut, and became a star in Say Anything when he was 23. I don’t think he counts as someone who toiled for years in obscurity.
Don’t lump Mission Impossible in with the other ones!
Streaming was so new when the last SAG-AFTRA contract was signed that nobody really knew what to do with it, which the streaming companies have since used to their advantage, acting like they’re still little offshoots of the traditional networks that can’t afford to pay writers and actors when in reality their…
Ah, so actor starts out as background extra for Disney, gets famous, and now suddenly Disney’s got a superstar likeness they can use forever...
It would be the first time that Musk wanted to keep White out of anything.
