Ratner gets $5M (against 5% of the gross) and screenwriter Jeff Nathanson was paid well over $1M. If the picture grosses $150M domestic, which is very possible, Tucker gets $30M,

  Filed under: OpEd, The Closer, Episode Reviews(S03E10) You know what I like about this show? I like that, when each episode opens, the crime has already happened. With CSI and Law & Order, the crime usually happens at the opening of the episode. But we get absolutely no context from The Closer, but I enjoy that.Okay, so this wasn't my favorite

I'm trying to figure out which story lines set us up for more issues down the road and I think there are several. But first, let's talk about Brenda Leigh.

  learn that Jet Li and Jackie Chan are teaming up in a new movie called Forbidden Kingdom. I’m a big fan of both these guys. Personally, I think that if the fight were outside the ring, i.e. there were ladders, garbage cans, refrigerators or other random objects laying around, Jackie would win.
