"you lack vision, but i see a premium video company where people log on and off our app. on and off, off and on all day, all night. soon, where free apps once stood will be an aggregation of interactive video, popular stars, and thoughtfully-curated content. lighthouse productions, quick bites, and rotatable point of view as far as your phone can turn. my god, it'll be profitable."

dude schedules meetings at 7 in the morning. what an rear end in a top hat

doesn't surprise me in the slightest. there's a book called DisneyWar which is basically the rise and fall of michael eisner at disney, but it also touches on katzenberg because he and eisner had a massive falling out


and my recollection from that book is that katzenberg basically just lived life in a perpetual state of meeting. at his office he'd constantly have two lines active, talking to someone on one while his secretary queued up a call on the other, and just bounce to the other line as soon as the first call was 'done'. in-person visitors would get squeezed in for up to thirty seconds between calls as time permitted. never arrived at a meeting on time; people in the studio basically learned to just post a lookout for his car, and only when he was sighted would they actually convene in the conference room.
