Dementeleus Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 Writing an open letter to a company, well past the time you left, as a "fan", seems incredibly self-serving to me. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say it's eye opening. And something that a studio should expect if they went like WB has been going lately. I'm sure that we wouldn't like "how the sausage is made" by any studio, but I'm actually glad she wrote this. I'd be glad if it was Disney and the MCU screwing it up. People lose jobs all the time, but when the higher ups are the cause for the downsizing of a company, how much is too much? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder how many of these outlets are trying to get a comment from WB. Obviously, nothing official. But, I wonder if they could get an off the record reaction or something Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's because they want page-clicks. They don't give a shit about whether it makes sense or not. Stuff like this makes me want to just walk away from fandom. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, Bourne has caught up now with it's first daily number over Star Trek Beyond since then. It's Thursday gross is only 43% down from last week. It looks headed to a weekend hold that may be much better than Beyond's equivalent weekend. Will be interesting to watch moving forward to see if Bourne will continue to out gross it or not.
