It's very interesting to ponder what might have happened to the Jews of Europe if they had had access to firearms. Ditto the people of North Korea.

Is there a Battle of Blair Mountain in their future if their contract demands aren’t met?

“Star-studded” = stinky, leftist, irreligious, immoral trash

Apparently it is discouraged at least.

Do big investors come to the premieres? The A-list actors should come to the hinterlands instead. Two movie theaters (maybe 24 screens total) around here recently closed.

When the writers went on strike in the mid 80s TV got better.

They used old scripts and brought back Perry Mason and Mission Impossible.

the increasing use of AI in production.

This is a big deal. The studios are demanding contractually the AI likenesses of actors.

Florence Pugh is the one with a ring thru her nose and she likes to wear see thru outfits in public. A ‘star’ of cinema....

The 10 year stretch of Rock Music (not “pop” music) of 1968-1978, was the pinnacle of great Rock releases AND concert performances, imo.
