    Unfortuntely this probably would not see the return of the Fox fanfare
    opening to the Star Wars movies ...


    21st Century Fox Shares Soar on Report of Disney Sale Talks
    -----------------------------------------------------------
    Shares in 21st Century Fox spiked in midday trading Monday
    following a market-rattling report from CNBC that the Murdochs
    have held talks in recent weeks to sell a large portion of
    their media conglomerate to Disney.

    CNBC's David Faber reported that the sale talks have centered
    around the 20th Century Fox movie and TV production operations,
    the FX Networks and National Geographic TV cable groups as well
    as Fox's enormous portfolio of international channels.

    The age and era of movie business is over now that internet is
    widespread, that everyone can produce videos via YouTube, Facebook and WhatsApp!

    I wonder what would have happened if Mr. Steven Spielburg was born
    now.... :)

    If Steven Spielberg was born /now/ then we would not have had Jaws,
    Indiana Jones, ET, Jurassic Park, Tintin, ... ;-)

    He maybe a happy YouTuber producing exciting short movies, getting some
    pocket money via donation! Think about it: those big titles are just
    stitching of action cut-scenes! Their plots are not thick. :)

    Boring film. Why should the world be bothered with Jews business?
    Because the Jews have assassins and terrorists worldwide?
