A few days after Sony Pictures announced it would lay off 450 staffers, the company was revealed to have a $153 million operating profit in 2009. That's a 9 percent jump over 2008's profit, aided largely by international grosses for This is It and 2012 and superb home-video showings for Angels and Demons and Terminator Salvation. Perhaps fittingly, then, the bulk of Sony layoffs will reportedly come from... the home-entertainment division. Cold. [Variety]
