Disney Dreams Where Sane Multinationals Do Not Dare by The Hot Blog

It’s funny. I was having an impassioned conversation at Universal’s Frost/Nixon event, where Ron Meyer and Marc Shmuger lingered well into the very pleasant evening, with Sharon Waxman about what “breaking news” in this business is in the internet era...

Hail To Or To Hell With The Exiting Hero? by The Hot Blog

Everyone wants to put a good face on the future. In a time when finances are tighter than a freshly jobbed face, this means that the media will be faced with He Said/She Saids between people we have all worked with and developed relationships with over...

The Watchmen Thing... Again by The Hot Blog

So now it's on, according to Variety , to a "federal judge decid(ing) the case" on Inauguration Day. I assume this means a different federal judge than the one who has already decided in Fox's favor, right? But more unclear, for me,...

Watchman Legal Papers by The Hot Blog

Sorry this is late... and yet more Watchmen ... enough to choke on... but I finally got a look at the legal papers around the Christmas Eve finding by Judge Gary Allen Feess and it does speak specifically to a couple of the rumors that are being floated...

"Take Me Away From All This Death" by The Hot Blog

40 were taken out at Reelz Channel yesterday, as they cancelled the one heavily produced show they make, Dailies. Sigh. As I write, more cuts at Paramount are being made. The NY office is taking the most significant hit versus department size. But jobs...

Cleaning Up Before Par "Toldja" by The Hot Blog

When Nikki Finke writes about Paramount , I pay attention… since she is getting her spun info from Brad Grey and John Lesher directly. Both men embrace a tradition of releasing bad news or unsettled news to media that will print what they want printed...

Sucker Born Every Minute: Episode 27,643 by The Hot Blog

Word today in The New York Times - which means that one side of the negotiation wanted it in the NYT - that Universal may be able to sell off the failed genre arm of Focus Features, Rogue Pictures, to Relativity boggles the mind. How stupid does Ryan...

Sigh... by The Hot Blog

(note: this e-mail was sent to me as part of a mass group, the contents are not private, and the name is only blocked because there is no reason to make this private person into a public one over my use of the e-mail to express ennui.)

Disney Event '08 by The Hot Blog

Nobody does these events better… or as big. Disney did one of their, generally, once-every-three-years events covering the breadth and scope of their film product. Bread and circuses. Heavy presence of international partners. The big show. Effectively...
