NIKKI-ISMS | Nikki signs first look deal with HBO | Nikki and Penske make up, she will return to reporting on the entertainment industry

[CoolioD1]

I'm finding it really hard to care about all this.

And she posts a Box Office article as well, weirdest firing/quitting/suspension/locking out EVER

It was no surprise that Thursday 9 PM late shows and Friday midnight screenings grossed a gigantic $1.4 million for Paramount’s Jackass: Bad Grandpa. Never underestimate the taste of the moviegoing public. My sources estimate this crapfest will end the weekend an easy #1 with low- to mid-$20sM from 3,336 theaters. “Not bad for a film that cost $15M,” a studio exec tells me. Warner Bros’ Gravity fell from atop the domestic box office for 3  straight weeks to #2 and probably high teens to low $20sM. Twentieth Century Fox’s Ridley Scott vanity project The Counselor (3,044 theaters) should only open to a meager $10M for the weekend.

This sounds like a good movie.

 

Meryl Streep's fourth Oscar anyone?

The twitter account is more fun to folow than I expected, it is like watching a car crash in slow motion

Interesting. I am no longer locked out of Deadline and my stories no longer going to Trash. I assume Penske now wants clean hands.

Penske parent company now deleting comments to my stories. At least 93 comments in support of me have suddenly disappeared in minutes.

I want to believe Fleming...but what if there is something we are missing? Think hard people. What are we missing?

Shorter Mike Fleming: Take your meds, Nikki!

Fleming is probably as insider as we'll get without insanity.

Nikki won't go quietly that's for sure, lol.

Perhaps the Deadline.com drama is some kind of groundbreaking long-form new media art project. #toldja
