Hollywood Babble On & On #109: A Musical Interlude

FlatNew Line's former head honcho Robert Shaye and his partner Michael Lynne have hung up their shingle as newly minted independent producers.

His return to the movie business after his ignominious ouster from the now moribund studio has inspired me, to sing....

WELCOME BACK ROBERT
(to the tune of Welcome Back Kotter)

Welcome back,
Your deals got you booted out.

Welcome back,
To start over again and get laughed about.

Well New Line sure has changed since you hung around,
In fact the whole company's burned to the ground.

Who'd have thought fate'd lead ya
(Who'd have thought fate'd lead ya)
Where Nikki Finke needs ya
(Where all bloggers need ya)

So we can tease you a lot 'bout the lawsuits you got, welcome back,
Welcome back, welcome back, welcome back.
