Fogelson was let go cause he couldnt develop franchises that worked for the entire world Moviesnob Aug 16, 13:00

OK, that makes sense. He couldn't get them going, and someone else has. (Probably makes him a good fit for STX, at least) {nm} RogerMore Aug 16, 13:05

Ok. That is not my experience with the marketing or what they said. {nm} RupertPupkin Aug 16, 15:24
