He threw money on so many projects (RIP Cinerama, which was my favorite theater). Jody Allen is a complete black box that answers to no one. She doesn't care about the sports teams either, so it's a mystery why the entire org doesn't just cash out at this point.

Thankfully, SIFF was able to save Cinerama (thanks to another ex-Microsoftie) and it's back in operation. I agree that it's a true treasure.
