Ego and Swagger

The sudden departure of DreamWorks partner (or former DreamWorks partner) David Geffen has been written about by N.Y. Times reporter Michael Cieply. Which again raises the question, who cares about this stuff except industry reporters and their editors? My energy levels plummet each and every time I read about this or that corporate hotshot making a move. I'm not saying these guys aren't newsworthy. I'm saying that the reading about big dicks buying and selling Monopoly hotels offers, for me, zilch in the way of intrigue. Because it's the same story every time.

Jeff: Well, Geffen managed to re-write Dreamworks' implosion into a rebirth, so he was clearly the one in the company with the business sense. So if *he* leaves, then you can bet we might be getting more Islands, and less Iron Men, since I imagine he's the guy who kept Stevie in check all these years. Not that I really care, since that just means more chances for failure on Bay's part.
