What the Writers’ Strike Really Cost Studios

When I first graduated from college and was trying to earn enough money to move to Los Angeles I wound up putting my business school degree to use and worked for Philip Morris International in their New York City headquarters.

Social Media Influencers Take Over the Movie Business

As I write this in Los Angeles, Tropical Storm Hilary (née Hurricane Hilary) is dumping more rain on Southern California in a single day than we usually see all year. Los Angeles hasn’t seen a tropical storm since 1939, 84-years ago, so everyone has lost their collective minds. I’ll try…

The Movie Industry’s Long Hot Summer

It is supposed to be summer, at least here in the northern hemisphere. It’s a time that historically is meant to be filled with relaxing, laid back sunny days, family vacations, blockbuster movies that earn beaucoup box office and most importantly, at least for those of us here at Celluloid Ju…

CineEurope Will Host an Industry That Finally Feels Normal Again

Next week the cinema industry heads to Barcelona, Spain for CineEurope, coming in the middle of the busiest film release summer in the last four years.
