How can Netflix afford to pump out the original content that it does?

Man...we're going to lose so many titans of film/music in the next decade or two.

Yup. The nice thing is his music will live on forever. The films will always exist, obviously, but his scores will continue to be performed live by orchestras all over the world, and as more and more sequels to his films come out, more and more composers will be writing variations of Williams' themes. Though right now one of the best parts of seeing a new Star Wars anthology film is hearing a new John Williams score. I will miss that a lot.

Johnny Depp dropped as Captain Jack Sparrow from Pirates Of The Caribbean franchise
I've got two questions about this:
I've got two questions about this:
- What's Depp going to do now? He plays that same pirate character in basically all of his movies
- Who in the holy **** thinks that the franchise needs to be rebooted? We already have 24 of these movies, and don't need any more

Agreed, I thought the first two were a ton of fun, but I have no idea why they feel compelled to reboot the series. Depp was the perfect cast for that role, but the tone of his character changed for the worse throughout. They turned him from a mysterious, cool pirate type into a bumbling oaf.Johnny Depp dropped as Captain Jack Sparrow from Pirates Of The Caribbean franchise

Depp can do whatever weird role he wants to. Regardless of how you feel about Jack Sparrow, Johnny **** Depp will have zero problem finding work.

Rolling Stone had a long profile of Depp a few months ago that was a good read. He has a lot of financial and legal issues and has been living basically way beyond his means for years. He needs those Pirates paychecks to pay lawyers and debt.
But he's really pretty as bankable a movie star working today outside of super hero and Star Wars films.
