How does /tv/ feel about this merger?
I don't care.
>>223600884I have a subscription to HBO Max I got from a free trial. Do I now get Paramount Plus with that?
They should leave California so we can all watch the collective melty.
Did my HBO subscription just get higher? When will the fusion take effect?
I have access to HBO Max, can I watch Paramount shit now?
when does the price gouging start?
>>223600926Is it just the legacy studio real estate, or are they incorporated in California? (Retard mode)
>>223600884I feel nothing
It's great. I love when top IDF donor, Netanyahus close friend and ultra zionist Larry Ellison controls half the media in the country. It's even better cause oracle owns 15% of US TikTok and control the infra for it meaning he has access to the algorithm itself. He can now push kike propaganda on the news, in movies and tv and to zoomers on short form video. It's a great thing!
I’ll just pirate stuff, same as I’ve done for like 15 years. The last time I had a subscription, I had Netflix back in like 2009 when they had everything and it was cheap as fuck.Until it gets cheap again, I’ll just keep pirating.
>>223600884>CNNKek, they must be scared shirtless
>>223600913My thoughts too. You can see Amazon and Netflix salivating at all the brands and library content they'll be able to buy for pennies on the dollar when this shit collapses in 2032.
>>223600884bretty gud. Hollywood has been a cesspool of woke leftist garbage for decades. This merger might fix it.
>>223600884does this mean paramount+ will finally be worth it?
>>223600884Disney needs to snatch up DC once this goes bankrupt
Why didn't anyone bitch when Disney bought Fox?
>>223600884so it's just Lionsgate and A24 now.
>>223601079Why would they keep Paramount+ when HBO Max is a more profitable brand?
>>223600884every day things get worse.
>>223601130They did? The shit dragged for like 2 years.
>>223601069i also love jews
>>223600884complete apathy like the 20 other times it happened
>>223600884Polish TVN is going to get a well deserved purge and switch in political orientation. Can't wait to see all commie boomers getting a stroke over this.
>>223601253they will probably turn both into Skydance+ or something
>>223600897
>>223600884hopefully no more woke movies and shows.
>>223600884I don't care
>>223600884Great! No fire and prosecute james gunn.
>>223600884Looking forward to the IP sell-off, especially whoever buys DC
They're just entertainment networks worth noting in reality.
We're going to get a gritty prestige martial arts drama out of HBO called "Avatars" and you will like it.
>>223600884>saudis own lord of the ringsgrim
unsustainable, paramount's in an even worse position debt & money wise than WB post-AT&T breakupthis'll go the way of AOL-Time Warner in a few years
>>223601425https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7aVX6vw906c
>>223600884who cares about mergers and acquisitions? "mr goldstein teamed up with mr goldberg" color me surprised
>>223600915Nope. You lose max and have to re up on Paramount.Just buy netflix
>>223600958Donald Trump just bought my slave... Do I have access to all of Donald Trump's maids now?
>>223600884I just hate Netflix, so I'm glad they didnt get WB
>>223600884Are paramount + and HBO max gonna be bundled like Disney and Hulu?
>>223601275Isn't this owned by the Saudis now?
>>223600884I am just glad that it wasnt Netflix, WB movies would go from terrible to god awful.Also Paramount wont tolerate Gunn's woke flops as much as Netflix would, so Snyder has a better chance of coming back.
>>223601615Bless your soul, snyderjeet.
>>223600897This
>>223600897fippy bippy
bloody hell
Elon lost
>>223600884Disappointed they're keeping Gunn & Colbert. I thought they wanted to make money not stack more losses to further a culture war agenda
>>223600884It's not like anything's going to change, aside from maybe TMNT become canon to DC or something.
>>223600884Does this mean Star Trek will stop being raped into the dirt, or does it mean Star Trek is going to be raped into the dirt even more?
>>223601275>Something not going my way? Just say "Jews", that'll show 'em!
>>223601069The Ellisons are the wokest people to ever exist.
>>223601881Meanwhile, you disingenuous homos didn't have diddly-dick to say when Disney bought Marvel, Lucasfilm, and Fox.
>>223600989its fucking great. So sick of left wing propaganda and not only lies but flat out made up shit on the daily. It'll be refreshing to see the same but from the other side.
>>223601886lmao >accuse your enemy of what you're doingsalinsky has been so watered down and common place even retards are using it now
>>223601881Bell, when it was broken up, basically controlled the enter telecom industry.Skydance barely reaches 10% of the 2026 box office and about 4% of the average streaming market share.
I think its tragic company that makes non stop trash can buy a company that makes good movies
>>223602024This.If you don't just consume capeshit, WB makes good movies and even bad movies are usually originals and they're not willing to make original movies.Take a second to look at Paramount's releases from the last 2 years, it's fucking horrible and they outright said they only care about broad appeal, middle of the road, franchise movies
People who support this are the same people who want LLMs to make movies.
>>223602139oh fuck yeah, shits gonna be LIT
>>223600884two piles of garbage combine to make another pile of garbage i don't care and i don't see why anyone was mad this was going to happen
No me gusta la función de los estudios
>>223601425Atleast it's not owned by fags anymore
>>223602139All I want is to see SAG-AFRA scum to crawl back for WB paycheck few months from now after they spent a year virtue signalling.
Man, am I looking forward to people swearing and hanging dong in Star Trek!
Preferable alternative to Shitflix. Anyone saying the opposite is retarded.
>>223601425Saudis have more respect for LotR than communist fags who were in charge of it until now.
>>223602139I support this because it actually means Hollywood is dying
>>223600884>>223601278The big fish swallows the dead big fish, again.
>>223600884it's going bankrupt faster than AOL Time Warner
>>223602385This might turn into a real monkey paw situation once you realise how Arabs really are
>>223602385>>223602290retards
I don't know why people care.
>>223602484I know how Arabs are, I'll take them over WGA niggers.
>>223600979You got me you nigger
Paramount threatening to leave ca was bullshit. Every state ag that went along with this should kill themselves. Fuck Saudi Arabia. Fuck Brendan Carr. Fuck this whole gay earth
>>223602845Here comes another unemployed artist lol
>>223602875I can heard the heavy breathing from a poor diet from here
>>223602875Anon I work IT for Yum brands, this won't affect my job at all. You have to be a shill, retard, or Un-American faggot to think this is a good idea. I know this website doesn't take anything seriously but the only way this goes over time is down. Or they won't make a profit and have to sell off later down the line but even that's going to blow cocks.
>>223603037Good. We need the old guard to die so fresh blood can step up. Nobody likes things the way they are.
>>223602968>I can heardesl moments you laugh to...
>>223600884WB Just always seems so cursed to be part of the worst mergers ever despite some of the great stuff they've done in the past. Kinney, Time, AOL, AT&T, Discovery... like god damn.
>>223600915No, they'll keep both streaming platform to get double dippers money until one of them reach low sub count, then they'll decide to merge both HBO MAX & Paramount+ in 1 but the sub price will go up.Disney+ is doing the same exact shit with Hulu
>>223601539Or just lrn2pirate
>>223600884Like I might have cared if it happened back in the 90s when they were relevant.
>>223600884Saaaarrr
>>223600884But how does this affect you personally?
>>223603139*I can hearor*I heardhappy now grammar nazi?
>>223600884I'm not happy they are killing the Warner Brothers brand, reminder they are the one who invented sound into cinema.I'm sad to see history fading awayEveryone should watch the 100th anniversary documentaryhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MLpbsD6Asks
>>223603136Then the 'old guard' would still be there. Dumb 15 year old's edge lord take.
>>223603235this nigga wants to shut down 99.99% of all conversation on the entire planet because he would rather appear like a smug insightful intellectual, but thankfully he appears to the rest of us to be a midwit.
>>223603294my guy doesn't know how hollywood works
>over 80 billion in debt with potential interest>largely coming from sources hemorrhaging money themselves>focusing on streaming at a point when bigger studios are struggling to turn a profit on it>CEO has worked with huge IPs and personnel in the past only to make dogshit bombs out of them>CEO also has to fund the IDF while holding this shitfest upYeah it's gonna be a disaster
>>223602968I can hear the heavy sobbing from unpaid rent.
>>223603557>>CEO also has to fund the IDF while holding this shitfest upBased. Bombs away.
