unless studios actually commit to an output level resembling something like 2019, all the new deals in the world won't save the guilds {nm} king george Apr 04, 18:12

Spinal tap 2 was Bleecker Street and this is Amazon, though I agree it's way too high {nm} nfred659 Apr 04, 00:15

On the flip side, there's TOPG2, BEET2. {nm} Antibody Apr 04, 08:20

I do think Rick Moranis could be a big nostalgic selling point {nm} nfred659 Apr 04, 08:34
