Instead, they used their muscle to get rid of Gray and put in a more controllable agent in charge of BOM in Seubers.

 

It sounds like Anita is giving them a ton of hell for it though. I can't remember seeing that many different studios calling out another studio. Usually it's just one or two. Sounds like pretty much all of them had something to say on the matter.

There were 500m tickets sold in China in 2012. http://forums.boxoffice.com/index.php?/topic/678-china-box-office-age-of-extinction-115m-total/page-218#entry589102 There's no data for 2013, but it's safe to say that it was up from that. There are over 1.3b people in China, it's not even remotely close to hitting a ceiling yet.

613.4M admissions in 2013,

+32.4%

If there's one thing Hollywood likes other than making money it's stroking it's own ego.

Anita is getting some good stuff from pissed off distributors.

I wonder if a rival studio can legally harass them. Sounds too cynical and petty to do that, but in dog eats dog competition, anything's possible.

She's trying to become the new Nikki.

I think it's just frustrating to see such a blatant untruth.

[redfirebird2008]

I wish Shawn was here for this. Hopefully he's still reading the box office news these days. I'm sure he would get a kick out of Transformers being fudged again. It reminds me of that scene in Home Alone 2. "We did it again!"

There will never be another Nikki. I'm just happy deadline is finally reporting something juicy and not playing spin doctors for their favorite studio.

If a rival studio puts in a legal notice to see Paramount's books, the notice won't have to be honored for a week or so i.e. more than enough time for them to shuffle the numbers around.

I wonder if they'd bother if it wasn't the end of the quarter.

Yeah....finally some actual news coverage. I am glad they didn't mention CA:TWS being released over spring break in the next sentence.
