On some days the tour stops at the famous Stage 27, once home to Dorothy, Toto and the cast of The Wizard of Oz. (Insiders claim that pieces of the original yellow brick road still exist under the stage flooring and are sometimes exposed during production.) The Sony lot also houses Stage 15. At over 40,000 square feet, Stage 15 is rumored to be the largest sound stage in this half of the world.

Through Columbia TriStar Film Distribution and Sony Pictures Releasing, Sony films are distributed in 67 territories worldwide.  But Sony doesn't just produce new product: the company boasts a motion picture library that features more than 3,500 films, (including 12 Best Picture Academy Award Winners), 275 television series and more than 22,000 episodes of game show programming from 50 years of television history.
