Yeah, so, a bunch of people that fancy themselves experts on the entertainment industry have been up in arms over both the WB stuff and the new Lord and Miller story today. Your newsletter is a perfect example of how important it is to have an understanding of how the business works before reacting. The Lord and Miller story is pretty standard stuff! Whether or not animators should enjoy some cap on work hours like SAG has is up for discussion, but the Amy Pascal quote is pretty dead-on, "“I guess, Welcome to making a movie.”
I mean, I worked for a small production house in my 20's and literally heard an owner say "that's working in video production" after dropping a ton of notes on us at 4 PM. What do you do? You collect the overtime and charge dinner on the company card.
As for WB stuff...TCM is bad. The other stuff is fine. I have no strong feelings towards Zaslav. The real culprit for the WB mess is the AT&T CEO. Everything went off the rails in 2017.
In conclusion: Good newsletter, you are more informed than 97% of the people on Twitter and anybody reading you is better off than 100% of the people on Twitter.
