!!Tropes applying to The Weinstein Company:

* TheDogBitesBack: Recently, directors have been taking a stand against their attempts at ExecutiveMeddling, this time, more successfully.
* ExecutiveMeddling: Though it's gradually slowing down due to the bad publicity they're getting.
* InvisibleAdvertising: On top of the ExecutiveMeddling, any film they're slightly uneasy about will get this treatment.
* MeetTheNewBoss
* OscarBait: Not as bad as Miramax was, but it's still there.
** Now instead of being criticized for "stealing" the Oscar from films like ''Film/{{Fargo}}'', [[NeverLiveItDown they're now accused of "stealing" Best Picture from just]] ''Film/TheSocialNetwork''.
* SiblingTeam
* SpiritualSuccessor: To Creator/MiramaxFilms.
