Did they lock her in the basement?

Bring back Megan Ellison! 💯
Megan ran Annapurna Pictures brilliantly. She was responsible, courageous, and above all, professional. Where is she now to teach her brother and father a lesson that with such shameful and amateur management, Paramount will drive away all the audience and destroy absolutely everything?
Our concerns extend beyond RUSH HOUR 4; we are referring to all the current issues involving Paramount. The Ellisons are blindly betting on Trump and rushing into disaster. It's so pathetic and immature. Don't these billionaires really have an ounce of sense in their heads?

The madness of these people knows no bounds.
In newly leaked audio, Peter Thiel admits he urged JD Vance to ignore Pope Leo XIV on moral questions — including the ethical development of AI.

He goes even further, branding Leo “the woke American pope” and suggesting he’s a tool of the Antichrist.

RUSH HOUR 4 is doomed to absolute failure in cinemas. Several hundred million dollars thrown like a fart in the wind. By the way, this kind of shameless, sycophantic, spineless management of a film studio is the worst and most shameful thing that has ever happened in Hollywood.

Making a RUSH HOUR 4 for the decrepit pedophile as he collapses the American economy sounds like a smart move.

I teased this last night in What I’m Hearing but now confirmed: Paramount WILL release Rush Hour 4 after prodding from Trump on behalf of Brett Ratner. Distribution deal. Producer Tarak Ben Ammar is lining up financing. Get ready for the dumbest possible state-controlled media.

This is disgraceful toadying to someone who could well be dead, out of office, or both by the time this reanimated corpse knuckle-drags itself to the screen. Some context: Ratner directed the state-approved Melania doc that is coming to Prime, so he's now a friend of The Family. >
