Geffen's Gone

Nikki Finke reported about two hours ago that original DreamWorks partner David Geffen is moving on after 14 years. She got this from an early look at a press release "to be issued about the formal separation of DreamWorks and Paramount," blah blah. It also says that "a decision on who will be the new distributor for DreamWorks 2.0 will be made at the beginning of the week by Steven Spielberg. No suspense about this as everybody's figuring Universal.

Why don't I care more about this? Because I've always chosen to regard the comings and goings of powerful rich guys as a corporate parlor drama that doesn't really affect my realm. Many journalists feel differently. They get wet over this stuff. You have to be up on who's running what, of course, but that's as far as it goes with me.

As long as they don't go with WB I'm happy, because then Dreamworks Blu-ray releases would have the possibility of not offering lossless audio.

Josh Massey: I had the very same thought for about two seconds when I saw this headline in my RSS reader.

hope his replacement's last name starts with an "A" so the logo will say "SKA"

I think what bugs me about this is that Geffen and Katz won't be able to keep Stevie's ego in check, and we'll get more misfires like A.I. as a result.
