Steven/Rory,This is such an important article ….especially in light of the Film Summit ahead in L.A….…and I’ve highlighted the particularly relevant pieces in yellow     Hollywood’s Horrid Summer: Why the Box Office Has Been Worse Than It Looks (and Won’t Get Better Soon) Are you looking to take the sting out of the end of summer? Maybe planning to go to the movies this weekend? Good luck with that.  This Friday’s sole new wide release is something called The Identical, an inspirational speculative “faith-based” movie starring an Elvis impersonator that is basically about what would have happened if Elvis Presley’s twin hadn’t been stillborn. Tickets are still available! If you’re not into that, you can always go for the second weekend of the horror movie As Above, So Below, appealingly described on this site by Wesley Morris as “the visual equivalent of watching fruit, powder, and ice turn into a smoothie.” Or the third weekend (ha-ha, just kidding, this movie is so not getting a third weekend) of Frank Miller’s Sin City: Bottom of the Inkwell. Or the fourth of The Expendables 3, which I haven’t seen but which appears to be some kind of sequel to Cocoon. In other words, you probably won’t be going to a theater this weekend. The 2014 summer movie season essentially ended on August 8 (a full six weeks before the end of summer itself) with the opening of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, the reboot of the ’90s movie series based on the ’80s cartoon characters that was produced by the same guy who directed this summer’s Transformers: Age of Extinction, which was based on a bunch of ’80s toys. That’s the kind of summer it was: So much merch to move!  Such heaps of discarded plastic packaging to recycle into still more product! So many demographics to placate! (Well, in truth, only the same one as always: men aged 12-to-aren’t-you-ashamed-to-be-at-this-movie.) And fall movie season doesn’t start until September 12, when two festival favorites, The Disappearance of Eleanor Rigby: Them (Toronto, Cannes, Jessica Chastain, ungainly title) and The Skeleton Twins (Sundance, Kristen Wiig and Bill Hader, peculiar title), will be the first to step onto the scales and have their Oscar-worthiness publicly weighed and calipered. The pause between summer-movie season and fall-movie season isn’t new — there’s always been an avert-your-eyes weekend or two around Labor Day, when moviegoers are usually sucking up the last of their outdoor time before returning to work or school. But four straight weeks is grim: After months of throwing every possible sequel, reboot, and franchise at us, a completely spent Hollywood is now convulsing with a very public case of the dry heaves. Cough up something! Anything! Movies we’re contractually obligated to release! Movies we wouldn’t even stick in a Redbox outside an abandoned gas station! The fact that for one month, audiences get nothing but clearing-the-inventory stuff like Horror  3: The Re-Horroring — movies that even their makers know you’re unlikely to watch — is indicative of a larger change in film culture: Summer movie season and fall movie season are now so completely estranged that a seamless flow from one to the other is impossible. A monthlong sigh (the Death Valley that August-to-September has become is the new January!) feels like an almost dogmatic announcement that summer and fall are two different businesses emanating from separate universes. As has been widely noted, the box-office numbers this summer were really not great. Not so awful that any grand statements about what audiences now hate should be prematurely road-tested, but pretty deflating nonetheless: The season was like looking around at a party you attend every year and realizing that a lot more people used to show up. Grosses were down almost 14 percent year-to-year in the poorest performance for an overall summer slate since 2006 — or, in terms of admissions, 1997.  The dip seems to have happened not because of wholesale rejection of entire movies or genres (give or take A Million Ways to Die in the West) but because all the would-be blockbusters busted fewer blocks than they usually do. For the last several summers, thanks largely to a number of successful franchises as well as the comic-book movie boom, the industry has gotten used to domestic grosses of $350 million, $400 million, even $500 million. Even in 2007, four summer movies grossed more than $300 million apiece. Of this summer’s pictures, only Guardians of the Galaxy will cross that line. Should studios be worried? I think they should be, a little. It’s probably not a complete coincidence that the year’s biggest surprise hit, The Lego Movie, is a self-aware fable predicting an eventual revolt by a captive audience that’s tired of being told that everything is awesome when everything isn’t. Accordingly, this summer provided a jolting reminder that there are some things even unstoppable systematized marketing can’t overcome: American moviegoers tend to get bored with a franchise by the fourth installment (Transformers), there is such a thing as rebooting too soon (Amazing Spider-Man 2), stars can lose their star power (Blended, Edge of Tomorrow), audiences can smell a cheap knockoff a mile away (Into the Storm), a sense of same-iness can turn a seemingly guaranteed home run into a mere triple (X-Men: Days of Future Past), and sometimes an idea is exactly as bad as it sounds (Clint Eastwood’s Jersey Boys).  Yes, huge overseas grosses pulled a number of domestic shortfallers into very solid profit, but nobody believes that level of international enthusiasm is going to last forever. Historically, audiences in other countries tend to tire of the same stuff that Americans do; they just do it two or three years (or one sequel) later. On the bright side, the greater-than-predicted success of Maleficent, Lucy, and The Fault in Our Stars suggests that there might possibly be some money to be made in pursuing a demographic that … what’s it called … not “men,” but … I’m blanking. Forget I mentioned it. It’s impossible to know yet if this season’s overall weakness was just an anomaly or if, more ominously, it portends a gradual but inexorable lowering of the box-office ceiling. Is $250 million the new $350 million? That would be the first sign of the only thing that truly terrifies the studios — a sense that people no longer feel they need to go to the movies. Never-mind-I’ll-see-it-later VOD culture has already seriously dented art-house grosses and we may now be seeing the first trickle-up effect of that phenomenon; there’s reason to believe that the growing appetite for convenience over communality will eventually affect big films, too, and perhaps sooner rather than later. If that’s the case, studios will be in big trouble, because it’s going to take them a dangerously long time to pivot; their commitment to giving audiences more of the same has never been stronger or longer-term. To my eyes, the essence of this summer was encapsulated not by any single movie, but rather by Warner Bros.’s announcement of nine new DC Comics adaptations — or, more accurately, nine release dates. That is now the moment at which the modern studio blockbuster is conceived. A distant endpoint checked off on a calendar, rather than a script, a director, or an idea, is where gestation begins. The DC announcement was simply an extreme (some might say desperate) manifestation of an ongoing trend. There are now more than 40 movies that have nailed down release dates between 2015 and 2020 without having any other tangible qualities that might allow you to call them “movies.” I’m not even talking about cart-before-the-horse stuff like the already scheduled Avatar 4; I’m talking about “Untitled Fox-DreamWorks Animation/Fox–Blue Sky film” (opening July 20, 2018), and “Untitled Spider-Man Superheroine Spinoff Featuring Superheroine to Be Named Later,” (2017) or “Untitled Non-DC Warner Bros. Event Film.” (Just in case any other studio was even thinking of grabbing November 11, 2020, back off, because it’s taken by something completely amazing that will be written and directed by people who don’t even know they’re going to do it yet!) The new reigning aesthetic isn’t an aesthetic at all but a corporate strategy: call “Dibs!,” pray that somebody eventually comes up with something viable, and then proceed, whistling past the graveyard of possibly diminishing returns. What a relief, then, to turn to fall, especially right this minute: In very early September, everything on the horizon really is awesome (at least potentially). High-pitched caws of hyperbolizing can already be heard from Telluride, Venice, and, starting now, Toronto (“The loons! The loons! They’re welcoming us back!” as Katharine Hepburn said in On Golden Pond). With so much hope and possibility before us — nobody is even disappointed in The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies yet! — four weeks of sitting in the cinematic equivalent of a waiting room doesn’t seem like too exorbitant a price to pay. But it probably says something about Hollywood’s current anxieties that this moment is suddenly tinged with nostalgia emanating from an industry that’s usually bent on forgetting anything that happened more than 10 years ago. Large-scale reissues are unusual, but suddenly we have two: Last weekend brought a nationwide 30th-anniversary rerelease of Ghostbusters, and on Friday, a remastered 20th-anniversary edition of Forrest Gump will hit 300 IMAX screens. Once upon a time, those were big-studio summer movies — in fact, if you adjust for inflation, each of them did the kind of $500 million–plus business that Hollywood did not get with its big-ticket lineup this summer. What else did they have in common? They weren’t sequels, or franchises, or intended primarily for children. And neither fit neatly into an acceptable summer genre. Forrest Gump, despite its now-entrenched reputation as The Old People’s Movie That Stole Best Picture From Pulp Fiction, was actually a formally and technically innovative piece of bizarre historical reprocessing that was based on a minor novel for adults (not “young adults” but real ones); in other words, it was the very opposite of pre-sold. And Ghostbusters took a big, effects-driven genre and harnessed it to casual, slapdash, referential comedy — a hybridization that was not, at the time, a particularly well-worn path to success. That gamble paid off — exactly the way it paid off this August for Ghostbusters’ direct spiritual descendant. Guardians of the Galaxy is the first summer-season champ in 11 years that isn’t a sequel, and like The Lego Movie, it’s at least as much an eye roll at the cookie-cutter blockbuster genre as an embrace of it. Which leads to, if not a downside, at least a question: If the movies that are doing the most business these days are those that offer gentle but pointed reminders that most of the movies that surround them are crap, what does that mean for the future of crap? Best not to ask right now. Summer’s over. Fall’s almost here. And Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2 is just 32 weeks away.      Stephen Basil-Jones Executive Vice President - Aust./N.Z. & Northern AsiaSONY PICTURES RELEASING PTY LTDLevel 26, 1 Market St, Sydney NSW  2000 T: + 612 9272 2902 E: stephen_basil-jones@spe.sony.com

Subject: Hotel T - Key Information / Discussion points (AUSTRALIA)
Â
Dear Jeffrey, BeckyÂ  & all,
Â
In advance of our call this coming Tuesday/Wednesday (our time), I thought it worthwhile circulating some key information & brief discussion points from my Australian & NZ markets with respect to the original film HOTEL Tâ¦and â¦.some very brief release date notes on the forthcoming HOTEL TÂ  2.
Am sure this will also save us much time on the call as well.
Â
Â
Â
HOTEL TRANSYLVANIA
The original Hotel T film grossed approx. LC$12.1mil. in Australia (& NZ$2.4 million)â¦..it was huge hit in both markets.
In Australia, approx $9.05 mill. was from 2D (75%) and $3.05 mill. from 3D (25%) on 454 prints.
We released on Sept 20, 2012 along with Diary Of A Wimpy Kid and a week after Madagascar 3. Timed to capitalize on the short two week vacation period.
The reasons for itsâ success:-
1.Original Story
HOTEL T benefited from being an original story in a âsea of sequelsâ. Itsâ concept was fun & freshâ¦â¦. A hotel where the fun âclassicâÂ monsters go for a holiday, a human âdudeâ that stumbles into that hotel and a lovely story about Mavis at itsâ core.
2. Tweens and kids/family appeal
Pic. appealed to the âtween audience as well as children/familiesâ¦and that is such a help with its commercial potential. There was a bias to young females we believe. The positioning and our marketing activity was to go for a âtween audience, whilst not discouraging the family market, as smaller kids will always aspire to see a movie that just might be above their age bracket.
3. Voice-over cast not a key !
We donât feel the voice- casting was a major drawcard at all. The good thing was the voices were suited to the charactersâ¦Â Â  In fact, we didnât promote the cast as suchâ¦and especially as Adam Sandler would have been a negative. If there was an exception, weâd say that Selena Gomez was a good attraction to young girlsâ¦..and if anything we pushed her/character .Â
4.The ad materials were bright, colourfulÂ  & fun !
We were very vocal about making sure that they wereâ¦so that the âscaryâ monsters (esp. dark, menacing Dracula) did not intimidate/scare our younger audience /parents.
The Elevator Standee in particular was hugely popular, with many cinemas noting that patrons were getting their photo taken next to Dracula. The Totems were easy to place in all theatres â the bright posters grabbed your attention in light boxes. Static Clings were everywhere â cinema staff were getting these materials up as they were fun/different and lighting up the foyer.
The digital assets provided for the film were strong (even though we got them very late) and this was crucial to give an âownershipâ of the content with the young tech savvy kids ....hopefully materials for HOTEL T 2 time wonât be as late so we can work these elements more with partners including our exhibitors.
All outdoor advertising materials were terrific (bright and showing âfriendlyâ and âhappyâ monsters) and improved as we got closer to the filmâs release (bus shelters and buses, using fabulous creative of the friendly looking monsters sitting in the buses).Â  It was critical that the Monsters were seen as friendly as in Monsters Inc rather than say ParaNorman/Frankenweenie.. Â Â Â
TV spots were also good, particularly the ones that featured the upbeat music (from the party) as once again this appealed to that âtween audience.
5. The other wonderful characters & humour !
The comedy was wonderfulâ¦..& going by the laughs in theatres â clumsy characters, goofy zombies and fart jokes also help! Of course having so many different characters also added to the fun of the film as they all seemed to have such appealâ¦...Franky and The Invisisible Man proving really popular too. We think audiences have responded very well to the little chunks of unexpected humour with other characters such as things like the âGrannyâ on a scooter,âGrannyâ at Bingo,âI did not do thatââ¦.the Flying Table scene a fun part too.
6. A great ending/the music clip
The ending of any kids movie is really important and this had a musical, feel-good ending, great for word of mouth. The film was a tad slow in places but it finished on a real high .
The music clip was fabulousâ¦âCall Me Mavyâ â we loved it â it was so catchy alsoâ¦and added to the films appeal/marketability to young kids & âtweens.
8. The next story ?
Weâre unsure of what is in store for us with HOTEL T 2 but more jokes for sureâ¦and physical, slapstick gagsâ¦.. weâd need to be careful not to make it too much about Dracula.
The attraction & storyline hook was about a young human dude in a monsters world & about how Mavis is growing up â¦.âDracâ was the perfect comedy âfoilââ¦but donât overuse himâ¦..make it especially about Mavis & Johnny. We are so mindful of the Dracula character being dark & menacingâ¦.and how that is perceived by our family audience especially. âSafe scares for kidsâ.
Our filmsâ appeal comes from the fun & colour of the other characters that balances out or indeed over-rides the darker Dracula one.
Beyond the core family/very young kids audience, we think the Mavis & Johnny characters were the ones who initially drove in the young teens and the âlove storyâ was something the young girls seemed to grasp on toâ¦..the âtabooâ relationship with Johnny (and his funny awkward character). The Father/daughter relationship very relatable to young girls too .
The public definitely love Mavis !!Â Â  All thought it was about Mavis and Johnny and Dracâ¦& the glue between them.
On a future general storyline level, a too adult oriented relationship/storyline has no fun & appeal to young âtweens and kids !Â  It would probably also involve too much Adam Sandler as Dracâ¦and we have to be careful about thatâ¦as previously mentioned. Another actor is that Sandlerâs voice is so strong & recognizableâ¦& he is seen more as a risquÃ© proposition these daysâ¦esp. to parents â¦.heâs not as popular as he used to beâ¦and we need to convey a safe, fun filled movie for families & teensÂ  (many also felt he had an annoying voiceâ¦sorry to advise) .
Â
HOTELÂ  TÂ  2
Â
Our proposed release date is November 26, 2015 â¦â¦â¦..designed to give us great playoff prior to Christmas and get two key weeks of summer school holidays before Christmas Day.
No major kids competition and we get to secure so many end of school bookings. Our own Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballs 2 opened in this time frame and took $13 mill.
We will look to play through the January 2016 summer holidays on limited sessions.
A significant swing away from 3D film choice has occurred in the family animated marketâ¦as per the USA,â¦with recent family films in 3D highlighting this factâ¦RIO 2 (only 8%) & HOW TO TRAIN YOUR DRAGON (only 10%).
Â
Competition:
Â
Hunger Games â Mockingjay Nov 19
Bond 24 â Nov 19
Hotel T 2 â Nov 26
Untitled Comedy Warner/Roadshow - Dec 10
Seth Rogen Christmas Movie â Dec 10
Star Wars 7 â Dec 17
Kung Fu Panda 3 â Dec 26
Peanuts â Jan 1
The Good Dinosaur â Jan 1
Â
(Please be aware that our Spring school vacation period commences on Sept 18,2015 in the three main states of NSW/VIC/QLD and in the other states on the 25th. North America releases Sept. 25, 2015) Competition at that time is Miss Peregrines Home For Peculiar Children on Sept 10 and Dreamworksâ Bureau Of Other Worldly Operations on Sept 17.
Â
Marketing:-
We now have a known product to promote and one that was very successful here.Â
BUDGET/Media spend approach â we are presently down with the same budget as the previous release ($2.1m).
Weâd look to skew our media spend a bit differently this time around.Â With the original Hotel T we had a fantastic campaign with McDonalds â including a big TV spend commencing from our opening weekend, so we were able to frontload our release budget to build to that opening.Â Â  We are yet to finalise the McDonalds partnership for Hotel T2.
As we are going into summer and the Christmas period, outdoor/shopping centre activity will be key, as will Digital given Grocer Buyerâs (and kids/teens) are strongly focused there more than when we previously released, this would include a strong mobile campaign with creative digital assets.
Â
Need to get key marketing elements as early as possible so we have a better chance to lock in partnerships/associations and also exhibitor hype and support.Â Â  These materials need to continue to be fun and colourful with lots of characters.
So delivering an early and good âstyle guideâ with plenty of clear character art and Alpha Channels, gives us the ability to create character animations/integrations for exhibition and brand partner messages. Eg.â Turn off your phones âÂ  Â Â It would also be a great benefit to get 20 minutes of footage well in advance at least 6 months out (like Disney & DreamWorks do), to make sure we can create top-line presentations for the film .
Â
It would also be good if we had an early digitalized poster for exhibitors (rather than close to release), as so many exhibitors now have digital poster boards and dropping off all other static poster boardsâ¦it also shows that we are looking slick and top quality.
Â
Halloween (Oct. 31) in Australia is obviously not as big as it is in the USA, but it has now become something that all the shopping centres (Target/K-Mart) push to sell product, so think this is a key element into the key launch stage of our campaign. Â Whereas our last release was too early for this association.
Weâd want another music clip for sureâ¦. & with regard to music rights âwe definitely want to make sure we have rights to use internationally in all materials eg. Tvcâs etc. (whichÂ  has caused hiccups before).
Music plays such a key in marketing the film (a music clip is a great digital asset), however this needs to be done as early as possible to make sure we have time to build up the attention.
Â
Hope this all helps & look forward to chatting tomorrow.
Cheers,
Stephen

Hi Steven, I’m thrilled you find it useful – we intend it to be a living document as the strategy is further defined and something hopefully becomes a valued reference for all the stakeholders involved with this film. You’re right on target on Latin America  of course – I just got in some home video info today on DESPICABLE ME and HOTEL in the region to suggest that DM1 grew into the monster hit that DM2 leveraged later, something the local teams had told me but I wanted to verify.  And, Philip Alexander, for example, was also very specific about the lower dailies for an October release relative to other times of the year, much like the U.S.  I plan to re-calibrate the statement about Latin America and the slide later that supports it.  Yet at the same time, as you point out, there is still a large opportunity to perform significantly above our current targets but not quite as much as the DM2 performance would suggest.  Eventizing is critical as you write, and the territories have some really great suggestions on how we get there but they need the home office to push a lot of great creative through the pipe with the right lead time. There should be another round on this document, including those changes above as well as any additional comments from the territories’ review, early next week.  I also received China’s input, so that will be included as well. Happy to come in when convenient for you and run you through it. Best,  Jeffrey VaraniniTel: 310-840-8378 Email: jeffrey_varanini@spe.sony.com From: ODell, Steven Sent: Thursday, October 16, 2014 6:07 PMTo: Varanini, JeffreySubject: RE: Hotel T 2 Hi Jeffrey,” Thank you for this.  At first read some really great info and learnings for us.   For now, a couple things that stand out.   I think the slide titled “Dispicable Me 2 Performance suggests  Bigger HT2 Opportunities” is too aggressive of a comp to highlight.  The next line after that title suggests that Hotel T2 should grow like DM2 because HT1 was bigger than DM1;  However, Rio 2 was bigger than DM1 and Rio 2 didn’t have anywhere near the growth vs. Rio 1 that DM2 had vs. DM1.  I just don’t think the numbers support the conclusion that a bigger box office of the original in theatrical necessarily correlates to growth rate for sequels for animated films.   I agree with you that   the ancillary business will probably  confirm that the Minions drove that film to new levels after the theatrical release.      I absolutely want to chase the success of DM2 but I think we should go easier on this correlation.    The other thing that stands out is the idea that Latin America projects to more growth than other regions.  While it is most definitely an opportunity region on this franchise, as we are releasing in a non-holiday time frame, the market size for family films can have a ceiling.  I am very bullish on the region but we have to keep in mind that Hotel T is already up there among the very biggest non-holiday family releases of all-time.   I’m optimistic, but we have to explore how we can eventize it to get a broader opening weekend audience as family will only take us so far. Again, some really great stuff here.  I think you have the hooks nailed (Fish out of Water, Mavis/Drac relationship, cute monsters, etc.).   This is a great exercise.  Once I spend a bit more time with it, would really like to walk through it with you.  Best, StevenFrom: Varanini, Jeffrey Sent: Wednesday, October 15, 2014 4:39 PMTo: ODell, StevenSubject: RE: Hotel T 2 Steven, I wanted to let you that I did pass these notes on ….  Also, wanted to share with you the current draft.  This is out to Nigel as well as the territory teams for a final round of comments.  It’s also currently missing home video numbers for DESPICABLE ME and HOTEL T, which is important to the point of how much potential we think is in Latin America for our film.  Our territory teams have said that DESPICABLE 1 turned into a phenomenon on home video, but I want to see how well our film performed in that window too. Happy to walk you through this if that would be helpful.  All the best, Jeffrey VaraniniBusiness & Franchise DevelopmentSony Pictures Digital ProductionsTel: 310-840-8378 Email: jeffrey_varanini@spe.sony.com  From: ODell, Steven Sent: Tuesday, August 26, 2014 11:01 AMTo: Varanini, JeffreySubject: Hotel T 2 Hi Jeffrey, As you continue to collect information from the territories on Hotel T2, I’m including some notes from a key manager who works here with me but is involved with all of our markets.  Really good story sensibility.   Just additional “food for thought” as you gather input. Best, Steven -The main female roles were a bit old-fashioned and stereotypical in a negative way.  Women seem to be, with very few exceptions, only serving  the story  as foils to the men (Mavis wants to remove Dennis from his loving Dracula, Dana obstructs Dracula and his crew from having fun.)  A clip that goes viral on the internet, it’s musical refrain is a dismissive, “your mother is already nutsynutsy cuckoo.” These females were portrayed as:  insecure (Mavis doesn’t want her son to be “Freaky like me”),  focused on romantic relationships with men (Winnie says “I am gonna marry you,” upon first meeting Dennis, Eunice advises Mavis that she should not neglect her husband ) and  in need of rescue (Winnie asks this of Dennis at the end) – in fact, the first page of the script is Dracula’s enactment of a female doll needing to be rescued by Dracula.   - In the first Hotel Transylvania (HT), the character arc of Dracula involved him learning to let go as a parent, and coming to terms with his lack of control over life/nature.  This seemed to be in contradiction with Dracula’s incessant interfering with Mavis’ parenting and his quest to keep her from moving away in HT2.  Another lesson he learned was to accept humans, when he directly benefitted from their kindness.  These lessons learned in HT seem to have been forgotten by the beginning  of HT2. -One of Mavis’ traits in HT is her willingness to embrace differences, she is the bridge  between humans and monsters.  In HT2, she wants to remove herself from monsters all together, and almost doesn’t enjoy their company anymore. -In HT2, the lesson of accepting and loving your child regardless how they turn out, is unconvincing when the child turns out  as you had hoped for (Dennis has fangs). -The use of the word diabolic when referring to a child, on page 95, may be offensive to Christians.

Would that effect you and your international dates?  Do you think our international offices would go earlier too if the US does it? Currently we are trying to get LATAM McD's to do hotel t2.

Keeping in mind their long lead times, they are currently investigating if there are any costs associated with the move to Oct 1 (due to the movement of the program prior to this window). I know we spoke about this date on the phone; can you confirm that Sony is good moving forward with this scenario knowing that the film releases on Sept 24 in most markets.

RE: HOTEL T 2 -- connecting SPA with the territory teams
Steven,
Â
Iâm not sure what the policy is on this one regarding dating ahead of the US. I know weâve been given the okay to go earlier on âSmurfsâ, but like I say, not sure about âHotel T 2â.
Â
In my view the best release date â in terms of playtime, competition, holidays and the all-important box-office potential â always trumps the wishes of a promo partner.
Â
Best,
Nigel

Subject: FW: HOTEL T 2 -- connecting SPA with the territory teams
Â
Nigel & Steven,
Â
No call from SPA as yet but a dating/promo. partner issue (McDonalds) has just come up and giving us reason toÂ  reviewâ¦for your info. see below.
Â
We have the pic. currently dated for November 26, 2015, designed to give us great playoff prior to Christmas and get the last two weeks of school holidays before Christmas Day. There is No major kids competition. We should be able to play through the summer holidays on limited sessions. Our own Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballs 2 opened in this time frame and took $13mil.
Â
Ziad Toubassy we believe is in discussion with McDonalds about a possible tie-in promotion but our current late November timing doesnât work for themâ¦.theyâd like September, 2015.
We originally had SMURFS 3 in September (9/10) but it has since moved back to 2016 â¦.so itâs a possibility for HOTEL T 2 to come up to Septemberâ¦.but the key issue is school holiday timing.....& to capture themâ¦ weâd have to go out ideally two weeks prior (Sept 10) to the USA (Sept 25). McDonalds usually asks for a decent enough lead-time to sell-in & promote.
Our 2 week holidays commence on Sept 18 in the three main states of NSW/VIC/QLD and in the other states on the 25th Sept.
Competition is Miss Peregrines Home For Peculiar Children on Sept 10 and Dreamworksâ Bureau Of Other Worldly Operations on Sept 17. We would not want to date against the latterâ¦and Sept. 24 is too late to do the business we need.
There is about $40mil+ available of B.O. for family films during the Sept holidaysâ¦noting they are only a short 2 week durationâ¦whilst equallyâ¦the lead into Christmas is also a very good & long less intense holiday trading period !
Â
Original Hotel T did $12.1mil.
Approx $9.05mil (2D) and $3.05mil (3D) on 454 prints.
We released on Sept 20, 2012 a week after Madagascar 3 which took over $22mil and Diary Of A Wimpy Kid (also Sept 20) which took about $8mil.
Â
Hotel T 2 â November 26, 2015
Competition:
Hunger Games â Mockingjay Nov 19
Bond 24 â Nov 19
Hotel T 2 â Nov 26
Untitled Comedy Warner/Roadshow - Dec 10
Seth Rogen Christmas Movie â Dec 10
Star Wars 7 â Dec 17
Kung Fu Panda 3 â Dec 26
Peanuts â Jan 1
The Good Dinosaur â Jan 1
Â
Â
Think we need to know how real/definite the McDonalds tie-in is before proposing any change..which would require approval from all to go earlier than Domestic.
Â
Cheers

Dear All,
Â
Please find below an email from Jeffrey Varanini from Sony Pictures Animation. Jeffrey works closely with Bob and Michelle in the area of Business and Franchise Development.
Â
As you will read from his email, Jeffrey is keen to speak directly with the top performing markets on âHotel Tâ, to talk about opportunities to take âHotel T 2â to even greater success. With SPA being part of Sony, itâs always a little difficult to stand in the way of this direct contact.
Â
Please be aware that I will be sharing your contact information with Jeffrey, so please expect an introductory email in the first instance, to be followed up by a call. I would urge you to reacquaint yourselves with your plans and strategy for âHotel Tâ ahead of the call, and you should feel free to include any relevant members of your marketing and distribution team on the call.
Â
Finally, it would be greatly appreciated if you would drop HO a brief summary of how the call went, what was discussed, and any next steps. No need to âreply allâ but please be sure send your recap to me, with c.c. to Jeff, Rory, Steven and your distribution supervisor. I will forward on to the HO marketing group.
Â
Thanks and regards,
Nigel

Â
Nigel,
Â
Just wanted to thank you again for the time last week.Â  We really appreciate all of your support and want to be a great partner in helping you take HOTEL T 2 to the next level.
Â
As I mentioned, Iâd like to connect with the teams in the territories where HOTEL 1 performed particularly well.Â  To ground us, Iâll ask questions about the strategy the last time around, what performed well, whatâs evolved locally since then and where they think the opportunities may be this time.Â  Is there someone on your team I should work with to start this process?
Â
Thanks again & Best,

Leah and Bob: After Bob sent to Pollack the revised proposal set forth below, I received a call late this afternoon from Ben Singer, one of Pollack’s attorneys. The response was not good. Ben made the following points:
1. The holdback of 50% is ridiculously too high. They would want 85% upon signing of a short form. (I told him that if so, the short form would not be so short).
2. They will never agree to a time limit on the agreement – the deal with Mark would not end until the IGT deal finally ends. THIS IS THE BIG ONE.
3. On 6A(1), they want 20% until December 31, 2029. (I think that if SPT agreed to no termination date, they would agree to 20% until December 31, 2024).
4. On 6A(2), the 10% continues until the IGT deal finally ends.
5. On 6A(3), the 10% continues until the IGT deal finally ends.
6. 6A(4) would be deleted.
7. On 6B, they want to be sure that the indemnity provisions survive, that Pollack retains audit rights and the right to secure copies of records relevant to conducting an audit. They are confused as to 6B(3), and would want to discuss the length of such an agreement and what provisions would survive. If SPT/SPCP is free to use Pollack or not, they do not understand why any end date is needed.
So, in the event SPT accepted such a deal, what would SPT have achieved?
1. Paid 7 of the 14 million as a compromise.
2. When the 2024 deal ends, reduce Pollack’s deal on gambling monies to 10%.
3. Reduce non-gambling monies to 10% now and going forward.
4. Limit the deal to WOF and Jeopardy! and no other properties.
5. Pollack to consult only upon SPT request – non audit related records not sent to Pollack. Confidentiality obligation imposed.
I have asked our outside counsel to revisit the issue of whether SPT can legally terminate the deal at the end of 2024 and to revert to me this weekend. I want to better understand our chances – although any decision would be by an arbitrator, not in court.

ACTION BY UNANIMOUS CONSENT
VIA ELECTRONIC TRANSMISSION
OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS
OF
Snapchat, INC.
Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â  The undersigned, constituting all of the members of the Board of Directors (the âBoardâ) of Snapchat, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the âCompanyâ), pursuant to SectionÂ 141(f) of the Delaware General Corporation Law and the Companyâs bylaws (the âBylawsâ), hereby adopt the following resolutions by unanimous consent via electronic transmission:
Amendment and Restatement of Certificate of Incorporation and Stock Split
Whereas, the Board hereby declares the advisability of the amendment and restatement of the Companyâs Certificate of Incorporation to read in its entirety in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the âRestated Certificateâ) to, among other things:
(i)Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â  effect a forward stock split of the issued and outstanding Common Stock (including an appropriate corresponding adjustment to the number of shares issuable upon exercise of any outstanding awards exercisable or issuable for shares of the capital stock of the Company and the shares reserved for future issuance under the Companyâs 2012 Equity Incentive Plan and conversion prices and original issue prices of outstanding stock pursuant to the Companyâs certificate of incorporation) to (i) subdivide each issued and outstanding share of Common Stock into ten (10) shares of Common Stock and (ii) subdivide each issued and outstanding share of each series of Preferred Stock into ten (10) shares of such series of Preferred Stock (the âStock Splitâ);
(ii)Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â  increase the number of authorized shares of the Companyâs common stock (the âCommon Stockâ) and preferred stock (the âPreferred Stockâ);
(iii)Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â  designate 1,200,000 shares of the Companyâs authorized but unissued Preferred Stock as âSeries E Preferred StockâÂ  (the âSeriesÂ E Preferredâ); and
(iv)Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â  set forth rights, privileges and preferences of the Common Stock and the Preferred Stock.
Resolved, that the Certificate of Incorporation of the Company be, and it hereby is, subject to approval by the stockholders of the Company, amended and restated to read in its entirety in the form of the Restated Certificate;
Resolved Further, that, upon the effectiveness of the Restated Certificate, (i) each outstanding share of Common Stock shall be subdivided into ten (10) shares of outstanding Common Stock, (ii) each outstanding share of Preferred Stock shall be subdivided into ten (10) shares of outstanding Preferred Stock of the same class or series and (iii) the original issue prices of the outstanding series of Preferred Stock shall be divided by tenÂ (10), in each case as set forth in the Restated Certificate;
Resolved Further, that, upon the effectiveness of the Restated Certificate, (i) the number of shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance under the Plan shall be multiplied by ten (10), (ii) the number of unexercised shares of Common Stock subject to each outstanding option under the Plan, including the Options, shall be multiplied by ten (10) and (iii) the price per share for each such outstanding option, including the Options, shall be divided by ten (10), in each case without the necessity of any change to the agreements or instruments representing such securities;
Resolved Further, that the officers of the Company be, and each of them hereby is, authorized and directed, for and on behalf of the Company, to take all action deemed necessary or appropriate to solicit the consent of the stockholders of the Company with respect to the foregoing Restated Certificate and Stock Split, and that any and all such actions that may have been taken to date are hereby authorized, ratified, approved and confirmed in all respects;
Resolved Further, that, upon receipt of such stockholdersâ consent, the officers of the Company be, and each of them hereby is, authorized and directed, for and on behalf of the Company, to make such filings with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware as may be deemed necessary or appropriate with respect to such amendment and restatement and to give effect to the Stock Split; and
Resolved Further, that this Action by Unanimous Consent supersedes and revokes any previous Board action with respect to the amendment of the Companyâs certificate of incorporation to designate Series E Preferred.
Series E Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement Amendment
Whereas, the Board previously approved the sale of up to an aggregate of 750,000 shares of the Companyâs Series E Preferred Stock pursuant to the Series E Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement, dated June 26, 2014, by and among the Company and the investors listed on the Schedule of Purchasers thereto (the âPurchase Agreementâ); and
Whereas, the Board believes it is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders to amend the Purchase Agreement in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (the âAmendmentâ) and sell an additional 450,000 shares (for an aggregate of 1,200,000 shares) of its Series E Preferred Stock (the âSeries E Preferredâ) pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, as amended, at a purchase price of $21.7158 per share.
Now, Therefore, Be It Resolved, that the Amendment be, and it hereby is, approved in all respects;
Resolved Further, that the officers of the Company be, and each of them hereby is, authorized and directed, for and on behalf of the Company, to execute and deliver the Amendment and any and all other agreements, certificates or documents required or contemplated by any of the Agreements or deemed necessary or appropriate in connection therewith, and to take all actions deemed necessary or appropriate to cause the Companyâs obligations thereunder to be performed;
Resolved Further, that the officers of the Company be, and each of them hereby is, authorized and directed, for and on behalf of the Company, to negotiate or otherwise cause such additions, modifications, amendments or deletions to be made to the Amendment, and such other agreements, certificates or documents, as any such officer may approve, and the execution and delivery thereof by any officer of the Company shall be deemed conclusive evidence of the approval of any such addition, modification, amendment or deletion;
Resolved Further, that up to an additional 450,000 shares of the Companyâs Series E Preferred be, and they hereby are, reserved for issuance pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, and that the officers of the Company be, and each of them hereby is, authorized and directed, for and on behalf of the Company, to sell and issue the Series E Preferred for the consideration provided for in the Purchase Agreement, as amended by the Amendment, upon the terms and conditions described therein;
Resolved Further, that the issuance and delivery of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series E Preferred is hereby authorized and approved in all respects and an additional 450,000 shares of the Companyâs Common Stock (and any additional shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of any shares of such Preferred Stock issued upon operation of any anti-dilution or other adjustment provisions provided for under the Restated Certificate) be, and they hereby are, reserved for issuance upon the conversion of the SeriesÂ E Preferred;
Resolved Further, that when the consideration provided for in the Purchase Agreement has been received by the appropriate seller of stock as provided for in such agreements, the Series E Preferred shall be duly and validly issued, fully-paid and nonassessable, and the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series E Preferred, when issued upon conversion of the Series E Preferred as provided for in the Restated Certificate, shall be duly and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable;
Resolved Further, that the officers of the Company be, and each of them hereby is, authorized and directed, for and on behalf of the Company, to execute and deliver one or more certificates for the Series E Preferred and any shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion of the Series E Preferred, in such form as may be approved by such officers; and
Resolved Further, that the Series E Preferred shall be offered, sold and issued in reliance on any applicable exemption from registration provi
