  • The Chase Is On! Infamous Cat-And-Mouse Rivals Tom & Jerry
    October 28, 2020 The chase is on! Infamous cat-and-mouse rivals Tom & Jerry partner with Macy’s on a zany animatronic float to celebrate their new movie and the 94th Annual Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade® BURBANK, CA – October 28, 2020 – On November 26th Macy’s and Warner Bros. team up to bring fans a completely new spectacle of fun and fantasy, as beloved frenemies Tom and Jerry showcase their famous brand of comic chaos with an eye-popping float in the 94th Annual Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade®. An American holiday tradition for more than 90 years with more than 50 million fans nationwide, the Parade is fitting partnership for the timeless pop culture icons as Tom and Jerry share in the good wishes of the season and offer fans a taste of what to expect in the big-screen event film “Tom & Jerry,” opening March 5, 2021. Titled “Tourist Trap,” the hilarious and engaging float features animatronics as well as smoke and other effects to spoof city life by throwing Tom into a series of wild squash-and-stretch sight gags the likes of which have entertained audiences everywhere. Among the indignities Tom endures are run-ins with a steamroller, a truck, a deceptively innocent-looking pretzel stand and a sewer gator. He even inflates like a mini Parade balloon as Jerry, ever the instigator, flies above the pandemonium in a drone helicopter. The float itself, a casualty of the endless mayhem, will lurch and limp down the Parade route. The animated/live-action adventure “Tom & Jerry,” starring Chloë Grace Moretz, Michael Peña, Rob Delaney, Colin Jost, and Ken Jeong, debuts in theaters on March 5, 2021.

His father took him to see "Jurassic Park" in 1993 in Newcastle, England. Accompanied by the astonishing visuals and John Williams' blazing music, alongside with a big carton of caramel-coated popcorn, this event as a powerful emotional experience marked a new interest in Wilkinson's life towards films and film music. In high school, Wilkinson took an interest in jazz to the extent that he pursued further education in jazz piano and composition at the Sibelius Academy in Helsinki. After winning an award for a ballad composition and soon after another award for a composition for mixed choir, Wilkinson got an opportunity to compose for several nationally broadcasted television series and commercials and he began actively pursuing a career in composing for film, while continuing to teach and perform. In 2006 Wilkinson received his Master's degree and in 2007 he scored his first theatrical feature film. Wilkinson was accepted to study at the film-scoring program of the USC Thornton School of Music and received several notable grants towards studies in the US.

    The Pennsylvania State University The Graduate School ESSAYS ON THE ECONOMICS OF THE MOTION PICTURE INDUSTRY A Dissertation in Economics by Naibin Chen © 2020 Naibin Chen Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy August 2020 The dissertation of Naibin Chen was reviewed and approved by the following: Peter Newberry Assistant Professor of Economics Dissertation Co-Advisor Co-Chair of Committee Mark J. Roberts Professor of Economics Dissertation Co-Advisor Co-Chair of Committee Paul L. E. Grieco Associate Professor of Economics Christopher Parker Assistant Professor of Information Technology & Analytics Charles Murry Assistant Professor of Economics Special Member Marc Henry Professor of Economics Graduate Program Director ii Abstract Chapter 1 inspects how critic reviews and audience reviews impact a movie’s box office performance differently. I use a Bayesian Learning model to model the process of consumers forming their beliefs about a movie’s quality, based on their prior, critic reviews, and audience reviews. Consumers then make a discrete choice from the set of movies that are available in a given week. Using a dataset of 665 movies released in 2011-2015, I estimate the model and show that critic reviews and audience reviews have significant and heterogeneous effects on movies produced by major studios or minor studios, movies reviewed by critics before release (regular) or not (cold-opened), and movies with different advertising expenditures. My counterfactual analyses show that forcing movies to be screened before release harms 71% of the cold-opened movies; consumers benefit from the availability of audience reviews by watching more good movies and fewer bad movies, with the quality measured from the perspective of consumers.
