  1. Realistically I don’t want any of them to own Warner Bros but if it had to be one of them I would’ve rather it been Netflix. This is not good :c

  2. There’s going to be a lot of people in Hollywood who whined about the Netflix deal who are in for a rude awakening about what this is going to mean for them.

    They keep overvaluing these services. They’re absolutely NOT going to be able to pay for this lol. Warner Bros about to be sold AGAIN in another 5 years. Count on it.

    And I get the political angle. IF this deal is allowed to go through (which it probably will because what’s a monopoly), it really won’t change anything. I don’t know anyone who hasn’t had their opinion made up and as soon as a certain someone is gone, they’re really going to see how little money they can make and keep letting these shows and channels live on.

  4. “Paramount agreed to pay the $2.8 billion breakup fee that WBD would owe Netflix if that deal didn’t go through.” Easiest 3 billion ever made.

  5. I mean after it was announced Paramount lost like 570 million last quarter, maybe Netflix is thinking if they wait it out a year or two they could buy both paramount and therefore WB for the same amount they just bid on WB

    Glad Christopher Nolan jumped ship long before this happened. John Oliver most likely will be cut, and you got to wonder what James Gunn is feeling.

  7. Only people that are going to celebrate this are the Snyder cult that for some reason think this means the Synderverse will come back. This is awful news.

    Well,   that’s that. Once the deal is complete I’m done buying DC comics…

    I guess I’ll save some money.

    My heart is broken but I can’t support the Ellison’s financially.
