Kim Masters, John Horn, and Michael Schneider discuss the big stories of 2013. From Netflix’s Original TV shows to big-budgeted fails at the box office, 2013 has been a time of change. Television audiences have become increasingly detached from appointment viewing, preferring to watch shows via DVR, VOD and streaming. And Hollywood filmmakers turned to Kickstarter and Indiegogo to crowdfund their passion projects. Meanwhile, Spielberg predicted the implosion of the movie business and massive fails at the box office like Lone Ranger seems to confirm his dread. There were shakes ups in the executives suites at movie studios and African American themed movies were big draws at the theaters.
