Movie ticketing platform Fandango and the Rotten Tomatoes movie rating site were also included.<\/p>\n<p>Like other cable companies, Comcast in recent years has shifted its business emphasis away from traditional cable toward streaming and other sources of revenue, such as its movie studio, theme parks and home wireless and internet services.<\/p>\n<p>Media and entertainment company NBCUniversal includes a theme parks division, Universal film and television studios, NBC and Telemundo networks, Peacock, and Bravo.
