Yes, there is a communist push to merge East and West. But I don't think the film business is in traditional Hollywood productions. Paramount, Warner and the rest might struggle in the coming years, but it will be Disney that will reset the balance of power within the next couple of years. Disney is set to have a 10 billion dollar box office summer in 2015 with Star Wars, Avegners II and Pirates of the Carribean 5. And they know it.

The legal trouble with the Hobbit picture is finally catching up to the big union studios in L.A. Nobody of any quality wants to go through all that--only the bottom feeders. Those films will move to other markets for production. But Disney is about to explode with success and will set the new standards of what makes a film good.
