Like, back then they just felt like wasting money?
So much duplication. You don’t need 2x those groups just because you 2x’d the company.
Additionally Paramount’s film slate is a fraction of what it was 10-20 years ago. So yes it just doesn’t take as many people to put out 1/3 of the movies each year.
