Primer on entertainment industry

I am looking for a primer on the entertainment industry. I am interested in Hollywood film studios, media, theme parks, show venue owners, show production group. Could anyone help please?

 

i would suggest reading industry publications such as adweek, mediaweek, adage, variety etc. pick a couple of companies in each subsector - conglomerates, ad agencies, broadcasting, newspapers, magazines etc., and read their k's to understand what drives their business. there is a lot of activity in the sector so make sure to stay on top of all the news.

I checked these on the web, and do not have a lot of reviews available.
