RIP western animation and DC, hello defaulting on 80 billion in debt

>>153911588
Damn, Paramount is junk status now
>>
>>153911588
This is being done strictly for CNN, the rest of the TV networks will be either shut down or sold off for cheap, with the production studios and IPs getting sold off to either Disney or Universal for only $15 to 20 billion with in 2 to 3 years.

Mark my words
>>
So what happens when every media corporation matryoshkas each other into a monopoly? And I do mean "when".
>>
Does this mean no more Fionna and Cake
>>
>>153911660
No, it's being done because David Ellison wanted it.
Remember this whole Ellison-Zaslav rivalry started BEFORE the current presidency. David Ellison is a spoiled nepobaby who thinks he's mr "I always win" and failed to see how utterly retarded the deal he was making was
>>
>>153911664
I will guarantee by the 2030s there will only be 2 big studios left, I don't know which ones were survive but I know only 2 of them out of the big 5 (soon 4) will still exist by the 2030s.
>>
>>153911588
I'm glad because this makes the woke crowd piss and shit their pants in anger.
>>
>>153911664
infinite money laundering machine
>>
>>153911691
Yea, he wanted CNN, strictly for Trump reasons, he does not care about anything else.

Watch by 2029 the Ellisons sell the "scrap" to Disney or Universal because he got rid of the TV networks by selling them off on the cheap and all the Ellisons kept was CNN.
>>
>>153911588
WB has been on life support for years now. It was always a matter of time before it get taken apart.
>>
>>153911660
If he wanted solely CNN he would have waited for Netflix's bid to go through then acquire the spun-off cable networks
He is a retard who has never been told no in his life and thinks he will be the one to shave 80 billion of debt off because his daddy owns Oracle and the AI bubble will go on forever
>>
What happens to the WB games and patents? (Nemesis system)
>>
>>153911725
The Ellisons don't work like that, they bought Warner Bros JUST to spite Netflix and sell the IPs to either Disney or Universal (depending on who bids higher) for $15-20 billion JUST to spite Netflix.
>>
I just hope they handle ips better than what disney did with marvel and starwars.
>>
>>153911588
DC IS SAVED
>>
>>153911750
Disney isn't doing too hot to bother with WB's IPs. They are currently suffering too.
>>
>>153911695
Disney, NBCUniversal, and Sony.
>Disney owns real estate
>NBCUniversal sells internet
>Sony produces consumer electronics
All the surviving studios don't make their money just from entertainment
>>
>>153911725
It's pretty clear what's going on with Ellison.
He's a nepobaby whose dad is one of the most successful moguls in human history.

If you've ever seen nepobabies like that? They tend to be pretty fucking insecure about living in a shadow. So he wants to be the guy who business'd his way into creating the big Disney competitor but doesn't want to put in half the time Disney did between deals to do that.
>>
>>153911588
have they ever actually blocked anything like this?
>>
>>153911775
Sony wants out of media to focus on insurance for the Japanese market, they already sold their TV (as in flat panel LCD/OLED displays) division to TCL and it's console division is said to be up for auction.
>>
>>153911785
Read >>153911750
>>
>>153911796
>Sony wants out of media
Are you seriously telling me they want to stop making playstations and games?
I highly doubt that.
>>
>>153911801
It was less to spite Netflix and more to spite Zaslav for preferring the Netflix deal.
Remember, Ellison was butthurt about the South Park thing by the time this happened
>>
>>153911681
Technically, Fionna and Cake already ended but for sure a lot of ongoing or upcoming animated projects and shows are going to be mothballed in order to keep their expenses on the low end.

I expect them to sell one of their studio lots for a cool billion or two.
>>
>>153911803
Yes, because Sony of Japan works differently then Sony of America.
>>153911813
Nope, strictly Netflix.
>>
So how is the 80 billion debt going to be paid? AI generated cartoons and comics in this economy?
>>
>>153911870
Selling off TV networks that are not named CNN 1 by 1.
>>
>>153911588
This fucking sucks, corparate made art is basically on life support, I love indie art but I also like having good big budget movies and shows sometimes.
>>
>>153911588
Uh based department
>>
>>153911588
I really love how in the west we have regulatory commissions that are paid exuberant salaries to do everything except their fucking jobs. We need a fucking mass extinction by meteor.
>>
>>153911775
I don't think the entertainment industry is profitable in general. They have been bleeding audience for the last decade .
>>
>>153911880
The Saudis don't keep them? Just merge them into MEMRI TV or something lol

Why are modern CEOs fucking retarded?

Oh no, not the...
I'm really gonna miss...
That one show with the...
Uh...
>>
>>153911910
Streaming was a mistake, I mean this unironically, it never made money and was propped up by the lie that it even could, it's the same as AI and fucking bitcoin, the entire world is run on speculator markets and lying.

But didn't they move their headquarters the California?

Yeah, I also predicted that at some point in the future, the American film industry will consolidate to a point that it'll become a duopoly. How and who acquires what is up in the air, but my original theory went like this:

>Paramount buys WB and becomes ParaBros
>Only the Big 4 remain; Universal, Disney, Sony, and ParaBros
>After some time, AI bubble blows up, sending Oracle stock into freefall; ParaBros debt becomes too immense to manage
>Ellison, getting desperate, proceeds to trim as much of the fat as he possibly can
>He spins off their games division, and their cable businesses, but not before loading them both up with debt
>still not enough
>Netflix swoops in to become a lifeline for Ellison to pay it off by buying out the company
>Ellison agrees, but the administration scrutinizes the hell out of the whole thing because it's even further consolidating the film industry
>after months and months of back-and-forth shitstirring, the administration begrudgingly greenlights Netflix's buyout of ParaBros, seeing as no other option exists and the American film industry is far too concentrated to fall into the hands of a foreign company
>The Big 4 becomes the Big 3 now, Universal gets anxious because of the landscape now that streaming has become the main form of viewership and Peacock has been dogshit for far too long
>Universal either sells themselves to Sony or Disney (probably the latter since at this point, they've likely handled their debt at a manageable pace)
>American film industry is now a duopoly shared between Sony and Disney; the former because of Jap autism, and the latter because Disney somehow played their cards right
>that is until Apple announces their acquisition of Disne
>but that's for another story
>>
>>153911922
The question is, the debt belong to whom exactly? Who they are supposed to be paying all these money to?
>>
>>153911932
Bro, most of the cartoons you're thinking of were made 20 - 10 years ago, and only a handful of them.
Now Cartoon Network has no new cartoons that anyone cares about.
The days of the 2000s and 2010s are dead.
>>
>>153911911
Can't, it's against everything Trump stands for.
>>153911922
No, just Daven Ellison.
>>153911924
WB animation is surviving, it's Nick that got killed off.
>>153911929
Thays why Sony wants to sell it, California fucked it up so badly that Sony had to move some of Playstation back to Japan which was too little too late.
>>
>>153911932
Then why am I not pretending western animation hasn't died like 15 years ago or whenever Adventure Time came out?
>>
>>153911935
To the Ellisons, CNN is the only thing of merit with this buy out.
>>153911942
Netflix isn't getting shit, this is between Disney and Universal.
>>
The AI bubble isn't bursting retards.
Stop coping just because you dont like the CEOs politics. Ellison is just a better businessman who made the better deal.

At least maybe he wont ruin his long running shows just to spite the male fanbase
>>
>>153911928
Social media also made people less interested in anything but following the so called "influencers". The younger students I taught cared about fortnite and the older ones cared about "funny" people on social media.

Sony becoming the only remaining film production company that's attached to a much bigger conglomerate that isn't even American is a much more horrifying prospect
>>
>>153911953
So, from the quick read up I did, they're selling 51% stakes of their home media to a Chinese company. Joy.
You know, I don't think anyone beings this up, but China and Saudi Arabia have been getting into the entertainment industry a lot in the last few years with gaming in shit. The possibility of these countries meddling with entertainment is um.... well, it dosen't really give up a bright future.
>>
>>153911981
Paying 100 billion for WB and going 80 billion in debt is the worst fucking deal ever and he is a retard
>>
>>153911974
>Universal
Nigga, not sure if you've heard, but Comcast originally planned to buy WB, merge it with NBCUniversal, and spin them both off like it was a sequel to AT&T's merge between Warner and Discovery at the time lmao

I'm just not sure where the profit is if it eats up hundreds of thousands of gallons of water just to still be worse than hiring a slave from Mexico or Korea. Everything that AI is """capable""" of was already managed by products that existed a long time ago. I just don't see what exactly is lost if AI magically disappeared tomorrow.

Yeah Im sure you know more than him retard that's why you're rich

I hate to bring these fuckers up, but with the way things are going, Glitch Productions might just gain from this because the whole industry is going to shit.
Most people don't want this to be the outcome, but when none of these corporations are going to be putting out anything worth wild, they'll turn to the next best thing. Say what you want but Glitch is only winning because of stuff like the WB buyout.
>>
>>153911981
Yes it is, we been though this before.
>>153912000
Sony will be out of film production in a few years, it's going to be Disney and Universal that will run the market.

No, thats their TV (as in actual TVs, not TV shows) department that was sold off to a Chinese company.

He’s literally only rich because his dad knows how to run a business that got big. Just about 100% of his net worth is from his dad and he worked on nothing that provided that net worth
He has done nothing and has no talent. He has as much skills as any you pulled random off the street and gave 100 billion to run a business.
>>
>>153912038
How the hell would Sony be out of the film industry? Aside from wasting tens of billions of dollars on failed attempts at a Spider-Man villain cinematic universe, I don't think they'll go under, especially since their Disney deal ensures that they still get paid for leasing Spider-Man to the MCU.
>>
Thank. fucking. god.

Too bad it's already too late.
AI movies and tv series will begin this year.
All of this money and all this ip will be rendered useless.
Autistic fans using AI will mog the past 12+ years of woke slop with their own ai degenerate slop, I can't wait.

Wasn't Primal made in France?

Yeah, that's why male characters in their work have....an "interesting" relationship.

Larry Ellison basically got himself into a position that would be retarded by any other metric if AI wasn't subject to bailouts.
>>
>>153912072
This the how the system is supposed to work. Companies that get too big or overreaching eventually become dinosaurs and get replaced with new companies
People here get too attached to the brand name. They want Disney or Warner Bros to exist forever and CN to be the place to watch cartoons and they cannot move on when the market is intended for you to move on and not get attached
For animation who is making it and how it’s distributed is changing and you need to adapt
>>
>>153911922
It’s about media control. Nobody can write anything negative about you if you own all news outlets. Look at how Bezos has gutted Washington Post and forcing it to just become an opinion piece rag that loves capitalism

To be fair, Glitch and Zamination are decently making strides. A24 and Neon are also keen on cementing themselves to replace the legacy companies. It's not too far off to imagine these newer companies eventually becoming successful enough to take their place.

I hope paramount goes bankrupt from this deal and david ellison publicly commits suicide ronnie mcnutt style. The fact that inept retards like him can fuck over media megacorps because they wanna be disney but dont have the patience to build up their media company or repertoire of said company makes me fucking sick.

Just because someone is a tranny freak, it doesn't mean they shouldn't be paid for their work.

Fair point, though I don't think it'll happen for a while considering that the medium of animation and original arthouse film production makes no financial sense for them to do.

>>153912243
Ehh, they'll be successful in their own right, but no, small studios will not be able to replace the American studio system.
What'll happen is just that western media will naturally get smaller, as money continues to exit all the entertainment industries.
The big winners here will be China in the gaming sphere, Korea in the live action sphere, and Japan in the animation sphere.
The west kind of fucked up all of their entertainment by spending 15 years insisting that the audience should exclusively be Kathleen Kennedy and women like her, and everyone else can get fucked.
It's hard to get people to come back to you after you spent an entire generation telling them to eat shit and die.

Right, you never grew out of Star Wars so that’s the blame. Not every studio wanting to make Avengers money that killed mid-level movies, not home media being killed by streaming, not everyone trying to force you to subscribe to their exclusive streaming platform, not audiences repeatedly saying fuck you to original movies in order to go watch next IP slop sequel.
>>

I don't care about Star Wars, I'm referring to all middle aged, frigid, talentless wome in general.
All the casting directors, diversity officers, producers, all the people who contribute nothing except a warm ass in a seat so the corporation can pretend they're doing a good thing for humanity.
All of those people can eat shit and die, they've utterly ruined western media and it's why people celebrate when their studios die or get bought out by Saudis who will strip them for parts.

you have no authority to exercise and you know it. Not in reality and not in the unreality either. The feelings will continue to hurt even after there's nobody there to hurt them.
>>
>>153912674
You could monetarily support stuff that you like, I guess it's a bit harder with anime since BDs cost a lot but you can go see good anime movies and good cartoon movies in cinema.

So what the fuck do I do about it? Kill myself?

I don't own a credit card.
Also any money I give for DVDs still goes to the megacorps first, not the creators.

Do you also not own a debit card or a bank account?

The weird thing is that Ellison could have bought CNN and the cable networks for pennies after Netflix was the original buyer of WB and HBO.

You can't use Patreon with a debit card.

You could, even though it's a lot of work. Or you could keep moving along. Have sentimental things or ideas to keep you tethered to the earth. I know my pet cat, who only trusts me to nuzzle up to at night, would miss me a lot if I left and never came back.
The issues of the big wide world are too big for individual people like you or me. It's important to keep your head screwed on straight but even more important to have achievable and tangible goals to get by in this one life.

They'll merge with Paramount Games. I don't see them just scrapping WB's game companies when video games are more popular than ever right now and are being adapted into hit movies. They'd have to be retards like Zaslav to make such a move.

Trump kept the AT&T and WB merger from happening during his tenure. He approved Disney/Fox because he was friends with Murdoch

Corporatism is part of fascism, which is part of socialism. The government is paid by corporations to do their bidding. Capitalism is a free market, which is antithetical to corporatism. America is a fascist country, sliding more and more into socialism, which is why Obama bailed out the corporations and why Trump's administration is allowing this merger to pass.

Kinda this.
It's just far more blatant now than any time in the last century or so.
We're sliding back to 19th century levels of robber baron corporate fascism, it's honestly kind of insane.

They're going to shut down the comics division and just make Batman movies.
>>
>>153912762
I don't think I really have tangible goals. Most of what keeps me going is trying to get "revenge" on shows like RWBY or Gundam Unicorn for being things everyone likes but I hate. And that just means watching a bunch of anime and cartoons in the desperate hope doing so proves me right or somehow changes reality through being so angry that existence itself caves to my anger.

On the cartoons side only invincible fits the bill. We barely get action animated tv series and the few we get tend to be fagged up.
>>
>>153912786
Capitalism is about ownership, not commerce, and fascism and socialism are different relationships of commerce and ownership relative to the state or governing body. You swallowed a high-motility load on this one.

Half the action movies aren't. None of the capeshit is.

>At least maybe he wont ruin his long running shows just to spite the male fanbase
The person he put in charge of Paramount Plus said their biggest problem was that Star Trek stuff (as in the new stuff) appealed too much to men

Isn't Creature Commandos still being made?

>>153912922
I admittedly not keeping up with cartoons to know for sure, but I remember my kid brother used to like a lot of cartoons and I saw some of them with him and they were definitely not for girls mainly.

>>153912925
You are being overdramatic. Cape movies did attract a lot of female fans, but they weren't made mainly for them.
>>
>>153912932
>Star Trek stuff (as in the new stuff) appealed too much to men
This person has to be spewing bullshit to justify stuff they already wanted to do.

Yes, they are, objectively. Claiming otherwise is clown behavior.
>>
>>153912832
It's better than nothing. But if you ever get tired of that, get tired of your anger, or get tired of being tired, remember that you aren't locked in to doing one thing forever, and you don't have to be good at something to try something new

But I want him to spout bullshit that encourages me to feel proud about my tastes! I want them to say they've given up entirely on appealing to women because there's no financial incentive in making things for them!

Anarcho-capitalism is threatened by antitrust. They're the real ideal of capitalism. It's democracy that's protected by antitrust.

"clown behavior" is claiming that they are. If they were actually, they would have been filled with romance which they aren't.

Idk but if you check out what the 3 big networks put out, it's all faggy shit so the only think that remains is netflix animation and half of their catalogue is shit. Do you remember what he was watching?
>>
>>153912924
No. Cpatialism is about ownership and commerce. You get to socialism through fascism. It goes
Communism <<< Socialism <<< Fascism <<< Democracy/Republic >>> Monarchism >>> Minarchism >>> Anarchism
You should stop listening to state controlled education and media.

TTGO, Gamble or something and cartoon with three bears.

Thor got reduced to romcom slop.
Iron Man reduced to muh Pepper.
Cap muh Peggy.
The only real piece of plot for the entirety of MCU Spider-Man is his obsession with a disgusting 3/10.
FF lost Silver Surfer so Johnny could flirt up with a gender swap, the other unhinged stuff with Sue is supposed to be romantic.
Even Reddit of the Galaxy got that shit.
Everything about Wanda, even though it's mostly offscreen shit.
Doctor Strange.
Every attempt at Superman keeps Lois around like a dead-weight with no narrative purpose.

>RIP western animation

I want to live in the world you live in because apparently western animation hasn't been dead for years in it. Some of you guys are still pretending that Cartoon Network, Disney and Nickelodeon were healthy and not shells with literally a handful of shows and nothing else.
>>
>>153912918
That's an old ass article, look at the date.
>>
>>153911942
You wrote all of this mindmelt (you mention WB's gaming division [something Zaslav already tried and failed to sell] and linear cable TV as noteworthy things) and somehow ignored Amazon as a player in today's media space. The third highest grossing movie of the year (so far) was released by them.
>>
>>153911922
These idiots are no longer motivated by profit. They've gone and schizoed themselves into making up political ideologies, the core belief of which being Fuck You Cunts, and they have the resources to make them happen.

They were the industry anon.
If the industry is just dead, then it's dead.
No, some internet company putting out maybe 2 hours of animation total a year is not a replacement for an actual industry.

Do you seriously believe this?

God no

>>153913458
You have multiple (?) anons in this thread suggesting the Ellisons are buying WBD solely for CNN. For some context, CNN is a distant third-place cable news network that averaged fewer than 600k live viewers in primetime last year. They genuinely believe a $110.9 billion acquisition hinges on that.
