No Turkeys At The Box Office
(Starts at :45)
John talks with Rebecca Rubin of Variety about her reporting on the Thanksgiving weekend box office: "Studios have long maintained the notion that Hollywood needs existing IP and long-running franchises to entice audiences during the Thanksgiving crush. But in a clear win for fresh content, original movies — including Disney-Fox’s 'Ford v Ferrari' and Sony’s 'A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood' — otherwise dominated box office charts. 'Frozen 2' demonstrates there’s a ravenous appetite for all-audience tentpoles, particularly among ticket buyers with young kids, but there’s still a market for moviegoers looking for something unique and different."
