'The Players' Tourney: Sweet Sixteen
Iger v. Langley! Cruise v. Cameron! Plus six more marquee matchups as we seek to crown Hollywood's GOAT
Due to a technical glitch, many of our subscribers did not receive the poll when emailed. We have re-opened voting for one more day to accommodate those wishing still to vote. Both sets of tallies will be counted towards the final result.
A few surprises yesterday! The Pixar Braintrust of John Lasseter and Ed Catmull bested Peter Guber, and we have an official Cinderella matchup today with Tom Cruise, a 10 seed, meeting James Cameron, an 11 seed, today after each advanced. Are we headed to a Titanic Big IP final of Peter Chernin against Cameron? There’s no cheering in the press box, but hard not to be excited about both of today’s contests and what’s to come.
Remember you must be a subscriber to vote.
