Ready the popcorn anons here we go againhttps://unn.ua/en/news/paramount-sues-warner-bros-over-netflix-deal
>>152115927Paramount really is trying to prevent streaming smothering out cinema huh?
>>152115927Stop it, they are already dead.
>>152115927Why bother? NOTHING can shift public opinion in orange fag's favor at this point.
>>152115927The Neflix deal would be the most disastrous outcome for movies, cartoons, comics, theaters, an anyone who prefers to own physical media.
>>152116048Good. Less clutter in my room, apartment or house.
>>152115927what ever happened to the other lawsuit over this buyout the class action one
>>152115927The dumbasses from Paramount don't know when to quit. I mean, WB already made their deal with Netflix, right?
>>152116048Give up your Earthly possessions and achieve true happiness, Anon.
For fuck's sake Paramount, just accept defeat with some dignity.
>>152115927Yeah, because that's an excellent way to convince a company to sell itself to you: suing them and personally interfering with their business. That will definitely convince the stakeholders that you're the better choice and not at all make them want to vote against you out of spite.The funny thing is if Ellison acted normal about the whole thing, maybe he could have bought them over. But his shitty attitude has killed any chances of that.
I don't think Paramount is any better than Netflix after seeing that fat female Jem Hadar, but nevertheless I'd like to see Netflix lose.
>>152115927>two retards fighting
>>152116147I want Paramount to lose just because they're being such sore loser bitches about this. They've been told to fuck off like what, three times now about this deal? Clearly some big nepobaby there not used to not getting his way.
>comply with my shady business practices or elseLANDOFTHEFREEREE
>>152116219>such sore loser bitches about this . . . Clearly some big nepobaby there not used to not getting his wayLike riling up a crowd of rednecks and dudebros because you lost to Sleepy Joe.
>>152116141>make them want to vote against you out of spiteoccasionally I'll see stuff like this and be reminded that everyone else here is a child, unemployed, or at least profoundly poor
>>152115927lawyers get richer, everyone continues to treat corporations as scum.
>>152116141You need to realize we're not just dealing with businessmen, we're dealing with yuppies.They don't even like money, they like winning and the idea that they can leverage anyone into doing what they want. There was a story recently where a fee of them hired a sociologist/ speculative sci-fi writer to figure out how they'd manage to get their hired bunker guards during the apocalypse to be subservient and when he came with the solution of "good and fair leadership and be nice to them", they were upset because there wasn't some big epic secret to exploit and leverage
>>152115927Paramount is getting Netflix shareholders involved, which means Netflix shareholders are willing to override their board of executives and hold a vote on the Paramount bid
>>152116125I'm actually glad you posted that picture instead of the usual one with the white soiboy faggot.
>>152116048Just pirate everything you want on a cheap hard driveThere's your physical media
>>152115927Are they suing WB for their stock?
>>152115927I doubt Paramount can handle the Netflix and WB lawyers, they only seem competent when it comes to lawsuits
>>152116048Meanwhile the Paramount deal means all major news outlets are in the hands of Trump fans who have a vested interest in maintaining a party narrative.
>>152115927>xitter thread
>>152115974Streaming has to die and you hikkihomori faggots needs to touch grass
>>152117158Paramount got the FTC and FCC on their side and FTC + FCC is itching to fuck Netflix and Warner at the same time with the ammount of proofs of shit they had done over the last 10 years, including Tax evasion and money laundering on over inflated and failed projects.This is going to get nasty and it wont end til the end of this year.Zazlav thought that he could leave this without any repercussions at all, but he pissed off a lot of people.
>>152116048>what is self hostingI shiggidy
>>152117991Nah. Nothing ever happens. The Deal will go through and the FCC will just seethe about it.
>>152115974Israel is trying to control american media and turn it into a propoganda weapon. Also to keep tight grips on cinema. But they've been shitting out blackrock approved weaponized media designed to destroy the populace for years now and movies and television are completely fucked. I don't know what they're going to do.
>>152115927On what grounds does Paramount have?WB doesn't think their promise of cash is worth shit, since they can't present said money is real, while Netflix is showing the briefcase full of money, making their offer look real.
>>152118038>C-C-Copethe smell of mouse desperate for this deal to happen>>152118057Zazlav is laundering money and the rumors of WBD evading taxes
>>152117991>the FTCAnon, I love you, I'd take a bullet for you, but this FTC is toothless as a crow. They're good at throwing cases they inherited and waving on mergers, end of list. You've got a better chance of the actual Warner brothers coming back from the dead and putting an undead foot down.
>>152118118Under Biden? yesUnder a very livid orange man who wants to send a message to california after the midterm elections this year, there will be blood and vengeance for all that happened on the previous mandate.
>>152115974Paramout is trying to prevent its own steady decline into financial ruin and obscurity. Please do not trick yourself into believing there is anything noble going on here.
>>152117991>FTC + FCC is itching to fuck Netflix and Warner at the same time with the ammount of proofs of shit they had done over the last 10 years, including Tax evasion and money launderingYou are a fucking moron and if they had any sort of actual firm evidence of either of these they wouldn't wait for a shitty third party to start an unrelated lawsuit.
>>152118057Breach of fiduciary duties.The idea is that the board has not disclosed enough information to the shareholders. They're saying "yeah, yeah, this deal is better, take it" without showing the details of why that is, which might be misleading shareholders, at least according to Paramount.
Would it not be faster, and less embarrassing, for Paramount to- HYPOTHETICALLY!- send an "unaffiliated" team of mercenaries to wipe out Netflix? We're already in a tech-dystopia so why not get some high-level corporate warfare kino to go along with it?
>>152118118This administration isn't special in that regard. It's particularly good at the bad part of the FTC.Most of the time, the goal of heading the FTC is to do your job as little as possible. When you don't stamp on them, you get favors for when you resignAnd you can't just do the job sometimes and not others or you have a suit against with precedent proving you're selectively targeting.
Why do people side with Netflix? Do you WANT WB properties to be Stranger Things season 5 levels of embarrassing?
>>152115927>Ellison absolutely refusing to take no for an answer How many women do you guys think he’s raped?
>>152118481>This administration isn't special in that regardCan you let me pretend it is?
>>152116075>I will own nothing and like it
>>152118494I think people see it as the lesser of two evils
>>152117969Touching grass is fine, but why the fuck do I have to suffer overpriced snack prices, the stench of vomit and more and more straight up COMMERCIALS every time I go to see a movie?!Go neck yourself, poorfag, I have a big TV and a nice house. I'm never going to a movie theater ever again.
>>152115974They're just doing this shit for CNN man, they don't give two craps about anything else.
>>152118494Season 5 wasn't that bad compared to BvS
