Disney has announced they will spend $60 billion over the next 10 years to increase growth in the theme parks business.

Kathie Lee Gifford once asked Martin Short about his wife "are you still in love?", not knowing she died a year ago. He said "madly in love". When asked why he didn't correct her, he said he didn't want to embarrass her on live television and that his answer was the truth anyway.
one of the most moving earnings call statements i’ve heard. Ted’s dad was a union electrician and we’re proud he’s now in a position to honor his father’s legacy by hoarding profits and grinding workers into dust
I guess Wall Street DIDN’T fall for the whole “sure, we have no production pipeline, but look at all this cash flow” strategy after all.
If Netflix can’t walk away from their earnings calls unscathed during a double strike, the studios are fucked.
Time to make a deal, AMPTP.
So... Snowpiercer season 4 did a full body scan and full range of emotion capture of all the series regulars on the show not ever telling us the real reason why. NOW I know why and it's really disturbing because I didn't consent. #SAGAFTRAstrong#WGA
Word on the street… The AMPTP was split on publishing their comically evil “kick WGA writers out of their homes” Deadline piece — and were SCREAMING at each other on a video call after it backfired.
Stay strong actors and writers, the companies are terrified.

@kathleenmadigan I wanted to show you that I've got you and your family on my prayer list and I've lit a candle. That's St./Archangel Raphael in the background FYI. Love, your biggest fan in Kansas City ❤️
I've been sitting here processing for 10-15 minutes, and all I've got is: It's really just awful. No matter how mad someone's words make you in the moment, you can't hit them. Not on live TV on one of the biggest nights of your life, not in private, not ever. Just... no. #Oscars
