Welcome to the show folks...
Time for a few short snaps, enjoy.
PITY THE DICTATOR'S SPAWN
No, I'm not talking about the dimwitted heir(ess) of some hyper-cranky studio boss, I'm talking about the son of a real dictator. It seems the era when Hollywood loved blood money has ended, because former pop star employer turned wannabe movie producer Saadi Qaddafi, son of Muammar Qaddafi, is now a pariah in Hollywood who can't get anyone to play with him.
The ironic twist is that now it's more likely for Qaddafi to keep his money. If Hollywood really wanted to punish him, they'd treat him like an ordinary investor.
THE MURDOCH WAY
Actress Sienna Miller is currently suing Rupert Murdoch's News Corporation because a reporter for one of their newspapers hacked her cell phone and the phones of some other British celebs. Now folks are asking if she's worried that this lawsuit might prevent her from ever working for 20th Century Fox ever again, and she says she's not worried at all.
Of course she's not worried, but she I don't think she fully understands why she shouldn't be worried. The real reason she should be cool as a cucumber is what I call The Murdoch Way.
The Murdoch Way is simple and can be boiled down to a very basic rap lyric: It's all about the Benjamins.
If the Murdochs think you can make them money then they don't care what you say, or who you sue. The only time you have to worry about not being hired by one of their companies is if they think you will cost them more than you will earn them.
It's almost zen in its simplicity.
YOUR FRIENDLY NEIGHBORHOOD BAG OF CASH
A first edition copy of Amazing Fantasy #15 containing the debut of Spider-Man has sold for $1.1 million.
Coincidentally, that amount will be the ticket price needed for Spider-Man: Turn Off The Dark to break even.

" Coincidentally, that amount will be the ticket price needed for Spider-Man: Turn Off The Dark to break even." Hysterical! Great comparison. -YBLM
