You must try to generate happiness within yourself. If you aren't happy in one place, chances are you won't be happy anyplace. -Ernie Banks -
I was in a meeting last night with a group of creative professionals and when the topic came up a wave of gloom came through the room… two worlds, two perceptions, between the public and those that work in arts/entertainment. The pop culture rewards aren't worth the true price that's going to be paid.Comment

The merger is a nightmare. There was no reason for it. FTC should have killed it. It really should be seen as the demarcation for the end of Hollywood as we knew it.
If the global economy even winks at recession, you can wipe Sony and all lesser players like MGM off the map. Then we'll get a fight between NBCU/CBSPAR/WB as to who acquires who. In the end it's Disney/Apple, Comcast Empire and whatever Netflix and Amazon can do. The problem for the actual working industry is not just the loss of positions and production shrink, it's the devaluation in content. The more disposable it becomes, the more budgets will lower and downscale everyone rates just to keep working.Comment

Yep it's bad for workers in the industry and creates a lull of creativity. Most of the new Marvel and Star Wars content are firmly in the middle of pack. There isn't another Empire Strikes back or Superman TMP but they won't be enough risk taking to make a truly awful film either.Comment
