I just love that even D-Wade doesn’t have LeBron as one of the best leaders he played with—cause he wasn’t. LeBron as a leader is so overrated. It’s why he needed Wade and Bosh and Irving and Love.

🍿 David Ellison Claims Paramount-Warner Bros. Will Produce 30 Theatrical Releases a Year — Is That Even Possible?
This is complete bullshit. It’s always been about consolidation so they can charge more and produce less. Maybe they pump out thirty the first year, but it will trickle down until it’s no different than today.
