Bypassing a theatrical release for the relative small potatoes of a streaming service might seem counterintuitive, especially when you’ve got the wind of an Oscar nomination at your back. But going with Netflix meant the movie got in front of a lot more people than an art-house run ever would have. A blockbuster would reach even more people, of course—and by the time 13th premiered, her opportunity to make a studio movie had already arrived. In February 2016, after overtures from Disney, news broke that she signed on to make A Wrinkle in Time.

"I would not be so invested in this issue if my medium wasn’t people and images. I make my art with the help of the kind, brave people that make up Instagram, Facebook and so many other platforms.

CERCLA and analogous state laws generally impose liability without regard to fault or legality of the original conduct on classes of persons who are considered to be responsible for the release of a hazardous substance into the environment. These persons include the current owner or operator of a contaminated facility, a former owner or operator of the facility at the time of contamination, and those persons that disposed or arranged for the disposal of the hazardous substance at the facility. Liability for the costs of removing or remediating previously disposed wastes or contamination, damages to natural resources and the costs of conducting certain health studies, amongst other things, can be strict and joint and several. In addition, it is not uncommon for neighboring landowners and other third parties to file claims for personal injury and property damage allegedly caused by the hazardous substances released into the environment. In the course of our operations, we use materials that, if released, would be subject to CERCLA and comparable state laws. Therefore, governmental agencies or third parties may seek to hold us responsible under CERCLA and comparable state statutes for all or part of the costs to clean up sites at which such hazardous substances have been released.

When we retire or dispose of an asset, we remove its cost and related accumulated depreciation from our consolidated balance sheet. We record the difference between the net book value and proceeds from disposition as a gain or loss on the consolidated statement of operations.

“It’s so fucking annoying you can’t get any Lisa or Marge stuff. It’s all Bart or all Homer,” she says. “So, I was like, ‘Fuck it.’ That’s the thing about being a maker. I have the ability to produce things I think the world is lacking. And, being a lady, we need more Marge and we need more Lisa. I’m sorry, but Marge really deserves to get high.”

Our business requires significant capital, and we may require additional capital in the future to execute our growth strategy. For the six months ended June 30, 2018 and the year ended December 31, 2017, we incurred approximately $17.5 million and $20.0 million in capital expenditures, respectively. Historically, we have financed these investments through cash flows from operations, borrowings from our affiliates and external borrowings. These sources of capital may not be available to us in the future, and our revolving credit facility places certain restrictions on our ability to enter into new debt arrangements. If we are unable to fund capital expenditures for any reason, we may not be able to capture available growth opportunities and any such failure could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition. If we incur additional indebtedness or issue additional equity securities, our profitability may be reduced and our stockholders may experience significant dilution.
