To my eyes they look like the only studio trying to fill the August/September/October theater void. -- nm - Inigo Oct 11, 09:59 6
- as the massive haul for Hocus Pocus 2 indicates (Disney has been very clear about wanting to kill all backend participation for producers and talent) - hollywood big shot Oct 11, 10:22 5
  - Avatar, Barbarian, Amsterdam, See How They Run and Brahmastra wouldn't have been released if Disney is doing what you're saying. - Inigo Oct 11, 10:30 4
    - as much as i would have loved to see Iger try to kill the bloated Avatar shoots when they bought Fox, c'mon man - hollywood big shot Oct 11, 10:32 3

        my god he admit it: "The business moved on [from exclusive theatrical exhibition]." Chapek's ceiling now is Marvel, Star Wars (if they even make more) - hollywood big shot Oct 11, 10:53
      - anyway, writers are going to strike the studios next year and we'll see exactly who's totally committed to what when everyone's money is on the line -- nm - hollywood big shot Oct 11, 10:40

- As I was hearing about Amsterdam, I was reminded of what a terrible person David O. Russell is. - Mop Oct 11, 09:50 1
