To say Spielberg ruined movies, you have to pretend that everyone from Cecil B. DeMille to D.W. Griffith didn't exist and then pretend that there were lines around the block for Barbara Loden's Wanda until one man deviously showed the world that sharks are pretty cool.

Art doesn’t need to justify its costs

[Variety @Variety]

#DisclosureDay has earned $6.5M in previews, putting it on track for a $35M opening weekend at the box office.

On a $115M budget (plus $80M in marketing), some box office analysts predict Spielberg’s film would need to open with $50M to justify its cost — and make $300M globally to be profitable.

The "no smoking sign," the male-female bathroom sign – and so, so much more.
