Pretty rough that this dropped on Christmas Eve. Among the biggest reveals in there are that Olivia Wilde fired him from her movie for being a jerk (sounds like she has no time for any of that) and replaced him with Harry Styles and that he was being strongly considered for an MCU movie. Pity that he's apparently ruined a potentially good comeback story.

Not that he had much of a  career to care about. frankly.

Notice how  many falen A listers are rumored to be making a comback, but how few actually do?

Happy new year!

 

2020 will be sorely missed as it was a great year for everybody; let's hope 2021 can live up to it.

Compared to projections, Mission: Impossible 2 came extremely close to my $90M forecast for the six-day frame. Shanghai Noon surged above my prediction of $13M.

Whatever happened prior to her getting to the hospital and after getting there, it seems like a total tragedy.  No one usually dies from a UTI, and yet somehow, that was the precipitating event here (it seems possible she went into sepsis from reading some of the articles written on how the UTI progressed until she collapsed and went to the hospital, and then what happened afterwards)...

Just read the GRAMMYs have been postponed (canceled) this year. How long until they announce the Oscars are canceled too

The Grammys will go on in March. It sounds like they somehow didn't fully prepare for a very scaled-down ceremony like every awards show this year has.

Meanwhile the US is on the verge of Civil War.
