However, WBD's upcoming reboot of the DC universe may help move the needle for Max, according to Bank of America lead media analyst Jessica Reif Ehrlich. AdvertisementWBD is now rebooting its superhero franchise with the DC Universe, or DCU for short, which will have films with interconnected storylines like Marvel has. Reif Ehrlich said new DC films and series could be cross-sold across Max, cable, and free, ad-supported streaming TV channels. AdvertisementAlthough WBD's cable channels are suffering as millions of US households cut the cord, Reif Ehrlich said this dual-distribution method is an effective marketing mechanism. "WBD can employ this same playbook to promote the launch of the new DC universe and other high-value content," Reif Ehrlich wrote.

☆ New Van Gogh Show in Paris Focuses on Artist's Extraordinarily Productive and Tragic Final Months
  + stars: | 2023-10-02 | by ( Associated Press | Oct. | At A.M. | ) www.usnews.com   time to read: +6 min
PARIS (AP) — Planted in a field, Vincent van Gogh painted furiously, bending the thick oils, riotous yellows and sumptuous blues to his will. And it had a doctor who specialized in depression, Paul Gachet, who took Van Gogh on as a patient. The exhibit includes 11 paintings that Van Gogh painted on unusual elongated canvases, experimenting to stunning effect. Another version of the exhibition, with 10 of the elongated canvases, was first shown at Amsterdam’s Van Gogh Museum earlier this year. “It’s a real fireworks show.”"Van Gogh in Auvers-sur-Oise: The Final Months" runs at the Musée d'Orsay through Feb. 4, 2024.

☆ Video shows police yelling at a driverless Waymo taxi to stop before it runs over a fire hose

Footage obtained by San Francisco news site Mission Local shows police trying to stop a Waymo driverless taxi. The driverless taxis ferrying passengers throughout San Francisco are a technological marvel — and sometimes a nuisance. Waymo operates autonomous taxis in San Francisco and Phoenix, and customers can hail rides through an app. As impressive as they are, the driverless taxis on roads today still have trouble reacting to unusual situations like blocked streets or commands from first responders. A recent viral Tik Tok video shows a police officer repeatedly gesturing for a Waymo taxi to pull over.
☆ Disney board exposed itself to activist intervention, but Peltz may be overreaching
  + stars: | 2023-01-12 | by ( Alex Sherman | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +5 min
Disney's share price spike in 2021 was caused by the same phenomenon — investors charging into streaming services with significant subscriber growth. Activist investor Nelson Peltz spent about 30 minutes Thursday morning speaking with CNBC's Jim Cramer and David Faber in a wide-ranging interview about why he wants a Disney board seat. Now Iger's back, and the Disney board has tasked him with finding a successor in the next two years. It's a far easier case to be made that Disney's board and Iger have consistently bungled succession planning. As Trian noted in its presentation (on Slide 28), the Disney board extended Iger's retirement date five different times between October 2011 and December 2017.
☆ Bob Iger returns as Disney CEO effective immediately
  + stars: | 2022-11-21 | by ( Mike Calia | Alex Sherman | Alex Sherman Covers Technology | ) www.nbcnews.com   time to read: +4 min
Disney, in a shocking late Sunday announcement, said it had re-appointed Iger as chief executive, effective immediately, after Iger’s handpicked successor as CEO, Bob Chapek, came under fire for his management of the entertainment giant. Iger will help the company’s board develop a new successor, Disney said in a release. Chapek was named chief executive in February 2020, succeeding Iger, who had previously said he wouldn’t return to the role. Iger, who held the CEO role for 15 years at Disney, had favored Chapek as his successor. Chapek distanced himself from Iger with a series of decisions, including his new approach to streaming prices for Disney+, Hulu and ESPN+.
☆ 'Avengers: Endgame' directors say they wouldn't 'be ready' to return to Marvel 'until the end of the decade'

Joe and Anthony Russo "won't be ready to do anything with Marvel until the end of the decade." The Russos made four movies for Marvel, including "Avengers: Endgame." The directors previously told Insider they had no plans to return, but seemed open to it. The duo made four movies for Marvel — 2014's "Captain America: The Winter Soldier," 2016's "Captain America: Civil War," 2018's "Avengers: Infinity War," and then "Endgame" in 2019. "It would be bigger than 'Infinity War' and 'Endgame,'" Joe said.
