****************************************************** If
that were true, how does he continue to get produced and
distributed? You don't imagine he's making movies with his
own money, do you? Today, there are an awful lot of ways to
make money with a film besides first-run box office. Sure,
the idiots that make Spiderman 55 and Lion King 22 top box
office picks, don't go to see Woody Allen, but he's very
successful on Video On Demand and at Blockbuster and the pay
channels vie for his work.
