God I miss Variety. Gotta subscribe again!
Reliance Entertainment, a Bollywood giant, is slowly negotiating (at last word) to buy Spielberg out of his SKG deal with Geffen. It's also talking to Jay Roach and Chris Columbus.
This ain't some historic NYC building, we're talking "ET," "Austin Powers" and "Harry Potter"!
This is some New Core setting some new business rules. Spielberg simply costs too much for regular Hollywood, and Bollywood's got plenty of cash to lay out.
Reliance's leaders "envision nothing short of remaking Hollywood."
As a big fan of Bollywood, I say, let the infusion of new blood and treasure begin.
Anybody notice the stage show in NYC with the Indian movie stars performing?
Remember this: the post-Caucasian world is not a post-American world, it's just a better American world.
