Who would’ve ever seen this coming years ago. Just wild. The giants have fallen and the newcomers have become the giants.

All this just so Netflix can stream *Friends*

In regards to video games this could be a good thing since everything that Warner Brothers usually touches dies. No games under them has had a future.

Keep feeding the beasts…

And suddenly cyberpunk doesn’t look like a fiction anymore. Mega corps here we go.

So we just don’t need movie theaters anymore. Got it.

So, at this point you either choose Disney+ or Netflix assuming HBO Max gets consolidated (seems to be what they’re implying) into the Netflix app. I’m also assuming prices for these streaming services are only going to get even higher now.

We need to break these companies up. Not allow them to grow into even larger monopolies.

Zaslav has been slashing WB’s non core properties for years, seemingly in preparation for this moment, and we’re all worse off for it.

This tells us Netflix subscribers are paying far too much for access to a less than good library of media.
$83 billion is a huge amount.
WalkingCloud on
Wow this is huge. And probably bad news for movie theatres.

So glad Paramount and the scumbag Ellisons didn’t win this one at least.

Even fewer films will be available on physical media and more things with be locked behind subscription payments forever.

Does this mean John Oliver has yet another new business daddy?
Also I worry what they’ll need to do in order to get regulatory approval.

They were the absolute worst company to acquire Warner Brothers. I’m pissed over this.
I’m still mystified as to why they sold anyway. Out of all of the movie studios this year, Warner Brothers was one of the most successful at the box office. I would have tried to keep up that momentum before I sold to anyone.

Kinda funny to see how quickly the cable cutters alternative became the new cable tv. I wonder how long till we get the streaming app cutter technology.

I remember a news story coming out years ago where reed hastings was trying to be bought out by blockbuster and the then blockbuster CEO said something to the effect of “those guys aren’t even on our radar.” I signed up for Netflix very early but still saved my blockbuster card. Still have it. It reminds me not to say stupid shit online. Sometimes it works. lol.

Personally I’m glad we’re barreling towards one mega corporation to rule every aspect of our lives. It’ll make thinking for myself so much fucking easier.

Not good but better than Paramount

It’s been dead for a while but i guess is official now, RIP HBO(not the brand or app, the actual studio or quality of).

Prepare for multiple price hikes. I might put on the pirate hat again.
