Big Eight (film studios)
During the 'golden age" of Hollywood, The Big Eight referred to the eight major Hollywood movie studios.[1] Since then, the number of major studios has fluctuated with bankruptcies -- RKO Radio Pictures, mergers -- United Artists and the 'promotion' of what was previously a 'minor' studio, e.g. The Walt Disney Company. The demotion of MGM leaves a current Big Six.

Once the largest, most glamorous, and most revered film studio, MGM was founded in 1924 when the entertainment entrepreneurMarcus Loew gained control of Metro Pictures, Goldwyn Pictures and Louis B.

In 1971, it was announced that MGM would merge with 20th Century Fox, a plan which never came into fruition.[5] Over the next thirty-nine years, the studio was bought and sold at various points in its history until, on November 3, 2010, MGM filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy.[6][7][8] MGM emerged from bankruptcy on December 20, 2010, at which time the executives of Spyglass Entertainment,Gary Barber and Roger Birnbaum, became co-Chairmen and co-CEOs of the holding company of Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer.
