Annual interest alone could exceed $1.2 billion, Bloomberg reported on Monday. In contrast, pre-Musk, the company paid somewhere around $100 million in annual interest.

If i remember it right, Elon ran short of cash and took out 13 billions loan to buy Twitter for 44 billions.

If you ask George, he’s already in charge of the company.

Yeah quite easy to service your bank interest, if you dont pay your other creditors...

Surprised he’s started paying. Now all he has to do is:

“All I wanted was Showtime, but I somehow ended up with a time-share.”

Yes, the story of how Tyre was beaten to death is very “shady”. The police chief admits that there isn’t a video of Tyre driving under the influence. There are videos that show the 5 black police officers unable to control Tyre. If each officer would have just grabbed one arm or leg, it seems like they could have…

How do they miss “Paramount + Showtime”?  Why add another combinator when you’ve already got a frigging plus sign in your name?

With all of the series they're cutting, they should name it Pair-a-Shows. 

I’m not always a fan of the snark Barsanti injects into his writing, but this was well deserved. 

This sounds like one of those tourist scams where they just try to confuse you until you give up and hand them $20 to go away.

A modest proposal:

I agree that not adjusting for inflation is weird in one sense, but I’m also not sure it’s any weirder than comparing box office for a country with a population of 130m, that didn’t have TVs, the Internet, etc., to a modern-day country with a population of 330m in another sense. Comparing Avatar’s performance to that…

(and I saw it again today a few hours ago).

Draw me like one of your Na’vi girls!

I liked Avatar and absolutely loved Way of Water, so trust me that I’m not trying to make fun of it, but... it’s weird that we don’t adjust for inflation when calculating top earning movies, right? That’s ignoring serious context. Of course Gone With The Wind didn’t earn as much money as Avatar, there was less money…

It’s even more impressive because the majority of other movies in the top 25 are either Marvel, Star Wars, or Disney branded, all of which have huge subcultures of people who have built their identity around their fandom. If you take out Cameron, you could reasonably conclude that reaching the top ten requires a…

Both of your factions are pathetic nerds who need to touch grass, stat.

there’s no logic here. for whatever reason cameron is really good at making movies that have broadly popular worldwide appeal on a scale that basically no other filmmaker can consistently accomplish.

I bet against Avatar 2 and Top gun 2.  I'm never betting again.
