Hi, I'm Kim Masters. Thanks for listening to The Business. Some of the most entertaining stories produced today aren't just on the big screen. They can be heard on KCRW's unfictional. Intimate tales and artful documentaries crafted by some of the most talented radio producers across the globe. Check it out. You can find unfictional on KCRW's iTunes page.

From KCRW and KCRW.com, I'm Kim Masters, and this is The Business.

Movies that had Deep Soul that accessed on family or identity, and there were tour-to-force films for movie stars.

But those are very hard to get studios to want to make.

Brian Grazer is the producer behind some of the most beloved movies of the last 30 years,

including Apollo 13, A Beautiful Mind, and Eight Mile.

But the filmmaking climate has gotten chilly even for a man with all those credits

and an Oscar. Grazer tells us about adjusting to a changing world and why he's turned his

attention to television. But first on the news banter, Warner's wrangles with DC Comics as

Disney wows again with Marvel's latest Avengers movie, and Hulu snaps up a show about

nothing for a lot of something.

Stay tuned, it's the business from KCRW.

I am joined by my fellow banterer, Michael Schneider, of TV Guide magazine.

Hello, Michael.

Hello, Kim.

So we, as we are speaking now, don't know the number for the Avengers Age of Ultron,

but we know it's going to be yet another, very big, a number for Marvel and Disney,

and possibly the biggest domestic opening ever.

That was the prediction before the weekend, that it could top the 210 million that

the original Avengers made, making it at the time the biggest domestic box office weekend

in history.

Yeah.
