>“We are deeply concerned by indications of support for this merger that prioritize the interests of a small group of powerful stakeholders over the broader public good,” the letter, which was published Monday by the New York Times and available on the website BlocktheMerger.com, states. “The integrity, independence, and diversity of our industry would be grievously compromised. Competition is essential for a healthy economy and a healthy democracy. So is thoughtful regulation and enforcement.”
>Included in the “featured signatories” section in the new open letter opposing the deal, which was signed by more than 1,034 people at the time of publication, were: Adam McKay, Alan Cumming, Alyssa Milano, Boots Riley, Bryan Cranston, Cynthia Nixon, Damon Lindelof, David Fincher, Denis Villeneuve, Elliot Page, Glenn Close, Jane Fonda, JJ Abrams, Jason Bateman, John Leguizamo, Lin-Manuel Miranda, Margaret Cho, Mark Ruffalo, Noah Wyle, Patti Lupone, Ramy Youssef, Rosario Dawson, Rose O’Donnell, Ted Danson, Tiffany Haddish, Tig Notaro, Yorgos Lanthimos and Yvette Nicole Brown, among others.

The integrity of what? We're talking about acting slop here.

Why don't all these rich ass wipes start their own studio then? Become the competition, support the diversity, lead the way for independence. Yeah, I didn't think so. They need to step up or shut the fuck up.

Paramount is owned by Larry Ellison, who is apparently conservative. But there's no evidence that he plans on making everything into right-wing propaganda. They're just projecting because they use their power to make everything left-wing propaganda and they think everyone is like them.

>>219709059

True enough competition is essential for a healthy economy but one could argue Netflix´s social engineering and historical revisionism policies are far more harmful to society and culture.

Systematically attacking history has negative effects on the identity of all the communities involved. Similarly, systematically attacking the core family unit and values as well as meritocracy contributes to a general societal decay. Even if society is in truth more heterogeneous now and not quite as euro centric as it once was integration should be approached responsibly and in a way that contributes to the dominant, established culture, not in a way that attempts to overwrite it. Respect works both ways.

Finally, let´s not forget these different cultures have their own industries as well like Bollywood or China. There is really no obligation or need to be inclusive when those exist. Not to mention it would technically be cultural appropriation.

>TL;DR even if it´s bad for the economy if it preserves culture it is acceptable

Right, I always find it interesting to see who is signing these. The Jimmy Kimmel letter last year got more big names https://www.aclu.org/defend-free-speech-letter-kimmel
Especially in pop music like Billie Eilish and Olivia Rodrigo but also former A-Listers like Deniro Tom Hanks and Natalie Portman.

The boycot of the Israeli film industry is mostly a bunch of literal whos but Yorgos was an initial signer and did get an actual A-Lister in Emma Stone to sign.
https://filmworkersforpalestine.org/#endingcomplicity

Most of these boycotts are the same people signing over and over again though, and the actual acting top of Hollywood right now is a shut out on all of them. Chalamet, Zendaya, Elordi, Robbie, Anya Taylor, RPattz don't sign. Syd Sweeney and Dakota Johnson are too busy taking off their clothes, etc.Emma Stone for Palestine is the only one that somewhat surprised me but I think it was actually Yorgos getting her to do it.

If you bothered to actually look it up it was the fucking NYPD that requested limits on special events with more than 20 people attending in parks etc. due to police manpower shortages as they’re already busy covering events tied to the soccer tournament as well as events commemorating the 250th anniversary.

As pointed out, ABC is a Disney outlet.

Amusingly, if these actors had a brain they would use Disney buying Fox's assets as an example of why media consolidation is bad. There's no way that the resulting company produces as much as Disney and Fox did separately pre-merger. Lots of people lost their jobs for no real benefit to the average person.

>inb4 "Who cares, those jobs aren't needed"

Most of our jobs aren't needed. But the idea is to give people a productive way to earn money, spend it, and live life in a social-capitalist system.

My opinion is they should do something besides a dumb fucking letter, or nothing will change. Not even violence. But something besides their constant posturing and grandstanding and "we think" fucking nonsense.

Hollywood is going to have to downsize either way. They bet everything on streaming, which is not profitable. Look how many revenue chains streaming killed:
>Movie theaters
>DVD rental and ownership
>Cable and broadcast television
All these things died or are dying because of Netflix. And every studio shot themselves in the face trying to compete.

I'm just mad they killed off all the local theaters. My local one ~20 years back would do intermissions so you could actually get more food during the movie, and if you missed your opportunity to go to the bathroom they had a piss trough in the back of each of the auditoriums so you could take a leak without missing anything.
Now it's just AMC and Regal.

Why don't they just form a consortium and buy WB themselves?
>>
>>219717209
they could start their own studio like chaplin but they wont because that would require investing their own money and they know the industry is dying and consolidation is the only way to keep the big money flowing to whose left. now theyre getting worried because theres not enough room left for all of them and that means they will need to accept less money if they want to keep working.

No, they won't because that wouldn't make any sense. If they want viewership, which fucking TV news already doesn't have, they need all the audiences

CBS News under Ellison controls is losing tons of viewers precisely because they’re now kissing Trump’s ass and killing stories to support him

indie films dont need funding they need a big studio to buy the distribution rights. fewer studios means a lower sale price for stillers next pile of shit

cbs news exists because the goverment requires it. its not a profit center.
cbs makes money on college basketball and the masters and NFL. and all those people love trump.

It’s so telling when you fuckheads constantly whine about quality being awful and then cheerlead every big corporate merger that only result in quality dropping more with mass layoffs, less competition, more cost cutting and less diversity of genres and storytelling across the board.

Why did Phoenix purposely tank Joker 2 so WBD would rake up debt, giving them EXCUSE to be bought out? Do these fkers have principles? If leftists are anti-corporatism (their collusion with govt policies/PENTAGON isn't partisan, but BIPARTISAN), why do they take 20~40M paychecks from MEGACORPORATIONS? That pay can only come from MERGERS benefiting top mgmt and their circle the most.

we are here now. if the aussie police and media dont drop it immediately, perry will have no choice but to sic her jews on the dyke, and I have a feeling perry's jews are the kind that can flip a witness.

Never forget none of them spoke out against Facebook, Twitter, reddit in taking orders from Buyden admin to censor the public. Had it been GOP in WH, they would have called it out. These multi-millionaires are ENABLERS. They never stopped rubbing elbows with warmongers, in fact the Sean Penns CHEERED on costly wars at the tax cattles' expense.

They all wanted Netflix because they, correctly, see it as the standard-bearer of "woke" far-left entertainment. Ellison's Paramount is seen as insufficiently on board with their politics and also male friendly. That's a big no-no
>>
>>219720887
If it's bad for the media industry to bow to politicians, then it should be bad for the media industry to bow to politicians. Shouldn't matter who. Shouldn't matter how. As >>219720748 points out, a former administration did actively demand media censorship which a variety of platforms eagerly agreed to. Most of that was directed towards "new media" companies, but I find it hard to believe the traditional outlets weren't given similar orders at some point.

Amazon, Apple and Netflix make movies, too. Goose's reddit space movie is the second-highest grossing film of the year and it's Amazon slop. But are those three going to pick up the inevitable slack that WB going away would create? Probably not.
