Thank you.

It sure as shit ain’t Grammy worthy, but what’s that even mean anymore?

Poe and Whitman weren’t trying to do what rappers do. But I still agree with your point.

Just because a lot of people listen to it doesn’t make it good.

Are the posters featured on each of the bars each production company's highest-grossing movie?

That's not what I meant. What I mean is that this data should be separated out by studio as it is because, in a sense, it's a measurement of the studio's performance.

Disney still must profit off of owning them. There's no reason to have bought them otherwise.

? WB is separate. Use to be owned by ATT, recently spun off

I was going to say that it’s interesting that the top 10 studios only vary by a factor of 3. Kind of argues against the idea that there is excessive media consolidation. But Disney owns fox and marvel so really it’s only 8 and the difference is over a factor of 6 and number 2 is less than half of Disney. So really consolidation is massive.

Yeah but the graph isn't about names on screens. It's about revenue and that belongs to Disney.

Why would it? This is a measure of how successful the studios are at making high earning films, not business acumen. Marvel studios is still a separate entity from Disney studios.

Disney “owns” that revenue as much as it “owns” the revenue that Toy Story made (Disney distributed, they didn’t produce), but eyeballing these numbers, the Disney total includes Pixar (Hell, the example picture is a Lucasfilm property…)

Universal and WB are owned by ComCast.

Ignore me.

$7.45? Yikes

NNN. Nuff Nsaid.

First Contact is real close to a 10 too... but yeah, I'm a traditionalist. Even-numberee ones + Galaxy Quest 👍

Well New Line is owned by WB now so

The movies made under Disney's ownership should

Lucasfilm makes Star Wars, not Disney. (Though Disney owns Lucasfilm.)

This actually raises an interesting question, because while Marvel Studios have made the majority of their profits under Disney, Fox is a very recent acquisition. So should that count towards Disney's revenue?

Everyone was using the song in videos when it first came out. People just enjoy changing their tune.

But one might expect that people would want to listen to an excellent song. The fact that the winning song had about 1% of the listens of the next most popular song in the list and the most popular song had almost 2000x more listens suggests there might be a disconnect between the people voting and the general public. Especially on Spotify where everyone had access to every song. You don’t need to buy an album or listen to a certain station.

Presuming you're trying to say Life of Pi, it was very well received by critics and was nominated for 11 and won 4 Oscars

And most of those didn't reach theatres
