    End Of The Revolution?

    revolution-logo.jpgIf you've got a couple of minutes to spare before the end of your lunch hour, we recommend that you head over to the Revolution Studios online studio store and pick up some memorabilia, because it seems that anything bearing their logo is about to become a collector's item. The rumor on the street (and in the inboxes of just about every assistant in town) is that the Revolution is over (or, if you prefer a less martial wording, Revolution has stopped spinning), with chairman Joe Roth finishing off a few projects in development and/or throwing some in a cardboard box and carrying them over to Sony in the obligatory producing deal. As is the custom when a studio goes down, we must list a smattering of its most notable failures, so join us in fondly reminiscing about Tomcats, Christmas with the Kranks, Rent, Little Black Book, and the one that rivaled even the immortal Ishtar as a punchline while simultaneously crippling two acting careers, Gigli.

    And if it turns out the whispers are wrong, we're sure that the Revolution store has a generous return policy for any unworn apparel you regret purchasing.

    UPDATE: The details, according to Variety: They will release 13 already finished or in-production films via Sony over the next two years, they've ceased development while the studio "tries to figure out its future" (read: bye bye), and Joe Roth is "hammering out" his "future production arrangement" at Sony.
