BLOOMBERG: Netflix’s New Co-CEOs Answer All Your Questions Do you think it's realistic for one service to account for 25% of all video viewing in the US? Sarandos: For sure. When you say one service, that's coming up out of a media landscape that was very specialized. The networks had identities and programming. We program into all those verticals, which gives us the ability to do quality at scale across every genre of entertainment and globally. It is very rare that a show like Squid Game from Korea would be as global as it was. Within 30 hours, the world was watching Squid Game with no human intervention to try to market Squid Game to the world. Peters: We're just getting started to make Squid Game not an unusual thing, but basically something that happens literally every week. How has the evolution of the business affected your relationship with the creative community? Online there are constantly people outraged about shows getting canceled. Sarandos: We have never canceled a successful show. A lot of these shows were well-intended but talk to a very small audience on a very big budget. The key to it is you have to be able to talk to a small audience on a small budget and a large audience at a large budget. If you do that well, you can do that forever. We'll try a different numbers question. How many of the hundred million plus people who share a password will pay for their own Netflix account? Peters: Those people know how to watch Netflix. They've watched something on Netflix that they've loved. Our job is over the next couple of years to win all of them back. We won't do that out of the gate. Some of those folks are borrowing because they're more price sensitive, they're less engaged or whatever. But if we deliver a Wednesday every week, if we deliver a Glass Onion every week, we'll get the vast majority of those viewers back. How hard of a wall do they run into? Peters: We pride ourselves on being a great consumer experience and we don't want to that to change. This is a graduated approach, but the vast majority of people who are not paying for Netflix will have to pay for Netflix. It gets to a pretty firm kind of position. This is not gonna be a universally popular kind of event. There will be unhappy customers.

Vulture: Inside the VFX Union Brewing in Hollywood The dozens of workers I spoke with claim that while Marvel’s tendency to compensate contractual employees on a weekly basis (no matter how many hours worked) is common practice across the industry, it pays upward of 20 percent less than other studios when doing so. One visual-effects worker currently employed by the studio on a feature project estimates that they are completing approximately four times the amount of work they are being paid for. Patch says he was surprised to discover that Alonso and Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige insisted on personally approving shots that require visual-effects work. Everybody’s giving their opinion, and sometimes they’re giving multiple notes on the same frames. Worse yet, VFX workers say that Marvel’s heads often choose to alter endings during the final stages of postproduction. This animator recalled a whole portion of an action sequence that hadn’t been storyboarded before postproduction. “It was just, ‘This hero avoids many things for this amount of time.’ Everything was blank. In 2022 alone, Marvel released four series, two stand-alone streaming specials and no fewer than three major films. That staggering output is unrivaled in the Hollywood studio system and, according to VFX workers, allows Marvel to operate as the industry’s biggest “bully,” threatening to cut off consistent work to those who run afoul of its expectations. The workers I spoke with said they fear the existence of a blacklist allegedly perpetuated by Marvel executives. “The blacklist is very talked about,” a Georgia-based VFX worker says. “I don’t know anyone that’s seen it for real. But it’s a common thing that comes up whenever effects people talk together. ‘If you do X, Y, or Z, Marvel will blacklist you and you won’t be working for them again. The biggest way to get on the blacklist is to leave a show early for any reason.” In January 2022, around 300 VFX production workers organized on a Slack channel under the name VFX Production Group and initiated a year-end poll comparing the salaries paid by various studios. The results revealed that a visual-effects coordinator can earn as little as $1,300 a week — $18.57 an hour on the lowest end. And almost instantly, there was an email that went out to producers and executives at Marvel that asked, ‘Where is this coming from? How do we stop it? Because we can’t have people talking about rates.’” A second Georgia-based VFX worker who read the email while employed on a Marvel sequel recalls producers and studio executives “getting all up in arms” about the poll. “My producer told me to find out who from my team was involved and to bring that information to my bosses,” says the VFX worker. “We’ve basically been told to shut up about our rates and not to talk about it to each other — which is illegal. I told them I didn’t know anything.” (Marvel declined to comment on its staffing processes.)

FINANCIAL TIMES: Warner Bros Discovery weighs sale of music library to pare debt Warner Bros Discovery is exploring a sale of its music library that could be valued at more than $1bn, according to people familiar with the matter, the latest move by chief executive David Zaslav to reduce debt at the sprawling Hollywood empire. The Warner Bros movie studio created a music division in the 1950s. In 2004 parent company Time Warner sold the music division, but the group retained its copyrights to a trove of songs, such as the soundtracks to the Batman films. Warner is shopping around this catalogue to potential buyers as it tries to capitalise on a hot market for music copyrights, said three people familiar with the matter. The assets could be worth more than $1bn, one of the people said. The process is in early stages and any deal would hold stipulations over access to and use of certain soundtracks, said one person close to the situation. The move comes after Zaslav’s team has axed prominent projects such as the CNN Plus streaming service, JJ Abrams’s HBO series Demimonde and the movie Batgirl during the final stages of its production.

Why can’t carnists hold their own against vegan ideology? Why can’t they provide ethical or environment arguments on the level that vegans can? Why do they turn to insults so quickly?

It's been raining all day in the city, so I started playing the soundtrack to The Dark Knight while I clean my apartment, and it is an EXPERIENCE. Hans Zimmer is a genius, and his score is an essential part of what makes TDK such an incredible movie. I remember watching it in middle school for the first time and getting chills from the music. That said, what are your favorite film scores or soundtracks?

Welcome to the BP: WF B.O. thread. Arguably the most anticipated film of the year, the first BP exploded to an incredible 202 million in the US and finished at 700M US, 1.34B WW. Will Wakanda Forever get close...let's see? Opening Weekend: Whats your predictions ATRL? I think it'll hit just shy of 200 million ( 197 M) and finish around 600 M US. It'll def hit 1 billion but let's see if Latin America shows up more this time around. Results: Thursday night : 28 M 3rd best of the year but higher than BP's preview. We know this is a walk up film so let's see how Friday does. https://deadline.com/2022/11/box-office-black-panther-wakanda-forever-1235169891/ WW after 2 days is at 58 M. Noted its only been open in 30 markets so far. https://deadline.com/2022/11/black-panther-wakanda-forever-opening-global-international-box-office-1235167682/ Friday:84M US, WW: 148.7M Overseas is doing meh despite almost every country its playing has it at #1. Sunday: US estimate : 180M WW total : 330M Nov 20: 288 M US, 546M WW. US second weekend fell 64% but the international only fell 49%. Thanksgiving week should be interesting Nov 25: 600M WW so far. Billion is a no go at this point but it'll def surpass Dr. STRANGE 2 for sure now in the US. Will update on Sunday for the weekend results. Nov 27. US: now 367.6M pacing ahead of MOM will most likely be at 400M by next week. WW: 675M. Should be passing the Batman by Friday.

Anxiety girls get in! I've been battling OCD for over a decade now. I've been diagnosed so I'm not just saying that like people who are a little obsessive about things being and looking tidy like to say!) I've used several medications. (Currently on Anafranil + Aripiprazole) What about y'all? And how do y'all deal with it?

I find it interesting when someone under 30 has never seen a single Harry Potter movie even if not in full, but most of it.

This game has been getting some "hate" for some odd reasons, but I've never been excited for a game because of the sheer beauty of combat system in FOREVER! I'm only hoping for the world not to be barren and great, memorable side quests (like The Witcher 3)
