Sony is in trouble. I wonder how much longer they will hold on to their studios.

Sony sees $2.9 billion loss, new CEO warns of pain

Tattoo out over 7 weeks in the USA and it is STILL UNDER $100 million in box office sales Sony won't be happy with Cr-egg's result either. They might get out of the Bond business altogether. Can Eon stand alone with MGM Q?

I should correct what I said earlier: in 2011 Sony didn't break 150m (before P&A), MIB:III (2012) is at least 200m proving to be the exception rather than the rule. Then if MIB is a hit or not the profit is Sony's alone.

BJ we'll see if Sony follows through on the TGWTDT sequels, a lot of egg on their face if they drop the ball.

Mazer : No worries man & wasn't offended.

"Still, the industry sometimes forgets that Pascal isn't just involved with movies: She has the distinction of being the only female film company co-chair who also oversees a television division, Sony Pictures TV, whose most valuable properties include Breaking Bad and The Big C. And Sony has more than two dozen television shows on the air in primetime, syndication and cable, which translates to about a billion viewers in more than 150 countries, and a robust digital business with Imageworks and Sony Pictures Animation. But movies remain her great love and 2012 is looking good, with another James Bond movie, the 3D Men in Black III, a new Total Recall and the still-untitled Kathryn Bigelow project about the hunt for Osama bin Laden, along with Spider-Man. The seasoned Pascal, 53, has seen it all: She has been in a senior position at Sony since the 1980s and was appointed co-chair in 2006. She also has had stints at 20th Century Fox and Turner Pictures and is remarkable for having survived at the top in a business not known for executive longevity." Pascal is another HUGE part of the Bond problem. Amy http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/sites/ ... _p_194.jpg and Boar-bara http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/c ... n_edit.jpg have teamed up to emasculate James Bond and turn him into an ugly, homeless bum.

I might go see the Daniel Radcliffe movie-it looks really scary!

[Alessandra]

MI:4 is now playing in Italy. What is the review from Ale? MP, FBF, seeing Potter this weekend in Woman In Black in a California multiplex? How will Radcliffe do?

My brother went to see it the other night and said it is very good. I'm going this weekend

[katied]

I'll probably see it Saturday.

[FormerBondFan]

I might see Dan's first post-Potter film weekend if I have time.

[oscartheman]

Person of Interest rocked tonight!The show keeps getting better.
Katied CR on scyfy reminded me White Collar did a episode where they did the CR story better than eon and the plot made sense!

The name's Corrupted Bond. Grandpa Corrupted Bond.

[Captain Arthurs]

This Daniel Craig as Bond thing is beyond a joke now. It makes me so angry to see yet another Bond film completely ruined.

Skyfall sounds cut-price and tedious and Craig looks awful: what an insult to call it the "23rd Bond film".

Can we please have a real James Bond and a real Bond film again after they have finished producing this latest dreadful Craig era rubbish?

Let's call it The Third Virus.

Captain, where have you been Let's see more of you here.

[bjmdds]

" Person Of Interest had a series "high" 3.3 adults 18-49, up a tenth vs. a 3.2 rating two weeks ago. American Idol drew a season "low" 5.4 adults 18-49 rating in its full hour, down a tenth vs. a 5.5 rating last Thursday." Where's Ale? Viewing MI:4 I hope amongst her snowy weather. She knows her onions

[katied]

Glad to see Capt. Arthurs posting again


I wonder if,given the ratings, they're going to continue doing American Idol? Why do a show like that when nobody is watching?(sounds familiar, no? )

[bjmdds]

Idol cannot top 18 million now MP. It did 26 million last year on average I think. The Voice will beat Idol after the Superbowl I think this Sunday night. MP, seeing MI:4 this weekend?

[Omega]

Girl with the Dragon Tattoo is @ $185 million, has it hit all the markets yet?

MI4 broke CR and QOS record $603.5 million

In a career high for Tom Cruise, Paramount's Mission: Impossible -- Ghost Protocol crossed $400 million at the international box office on Friday for a global total of $603.5 million, the actor's biggest number yet

[FormerBondFan]

MI4 broke CR and QOS record $603.5 million

Let's The Third Virus will slip way below CR and QOS at the box office, especially here in the US.

[Omega]

The name's Corrupted Bond. Grandpa Corrupted Bond.

Holy crap he looks awful 60 at least a healthy 60 but d**n.

[The Sweeney]

Craig's hair is waaaaaay too short!!!!

These tossers who run the Bond franchise are ruining it.
