The old WB regime lied about its HBO Max subscribers in an attempt to fool shareholders before the Discovery merger.
Remember all the bogus news about such movie or show being a major HBO Max success? All lies.
Warner Bros. Cooked HBO Max Subscriber Numbers, Misled Shareholders in Merger, Lawsuit Claims
Don't care, let Hollywood die.
>Don't care, let Hollywood die.
Disney has been doing this as well, right?
Yep.
They all are. As bad as the Nielsen ratings were, they're now effectively having companies fill out their own books.
they al lie. netflix keeps talking about their movies being most streamed ever when it counts people just previewing it on the menu screen as soon as it loads up
Yeah. Streaming is burning money. They are all investing everything they have with the hope they may have the monopoly in the future if the other companies get bankrupted first, and even that doesn't guarantee it will be profitable.
it's not about profits its about having a monopoly of access to hearts and minds
that's how every tech investment has been for decades. you pour money into something non-stop hoping you outlast everyone and end up the only remaining option. the streaming services all seem to be doing the same just because they didn't want to see anyone else make money off of their product
They've all been doing it. It's part of why they selectively release streaming audience numbers rather than providing all the raw data.
At least 50% are on some kind of free trial. Who knows how many more are falsely counted.
haha america in trouble! age of chinese film hegemony starting now!
>Remember all the bogus news about such movie or show being a major HBO Max success? All lies
I really only remember them claiming Suicide Squad, Wonder Woman and Peace Maker all drove subs while simultaneously never hearing them talked about IRL
and The Watchmen
The canary in the coal mine.
>the cannery in the cold mind
Yeah that was the other one
That was for HBO
Warner Media owns HBO.
Yes but we're talking about them cooking the books for Max
Been getting a shit ton of ads for HBOmax discounts the past month or so.
Why do you care?
>lol just let them lie bro, like who even cares about legality lmao
what's illegal about misleading shareholders? they shouldve done their due diligence.
shareholders, like israelites and boomers, are the top of the food chain. when they come across something they don't like they make a law to keep it from happening in the future, lest their fragile aged brains be forced to experience something other than full obedience from lesser people.
why else do you think you can't discriminate against silents and boomers in the work place based solely on age? they knew their time was up decades ago but they made it so you can't even so much as think of implying they can't do their job anymore because of being old without being fired on the spot or reported to the government
I always love reading foreign takes on the american economy. Tell me anon, which part of the third world do you hail from?
It's illegal, that's what's illegal about it.
How can you do your due diligence when the company you've invested in is feeding you false information?
It literally doesn’t affect you at all.
Do you defend corporations for free or is there pay involved?
oh im pay for play for sure, how about you? do you get paid for the job you do on here?
I do it for free, thanks you. It's funny, because I used to be against corporations, but this past decade I realized that capitalism actually works when the right people are in charge. It could still be better though.
you spelled crapitalism wrong, egghead
Uh? How did you know I was an egg? I'm already out though.
>How did you know I was an egg?
i can hear calcium
I'm the one paying to defend them.
The hollywood israelites are having a terrible time of it lately
That's what happens when you cater to lunatics instead of the majority of your potential customers.
I see the other israelites are already trying to israelite their way out of the terrible deal they made
How much worse can it get for WB?
They get sold off piece by piece. It's quite amazing really because WB has all the IP's they need to compete with Disney but it's so horribly mismanaged that it's become one of the worst studios
You can give Iraqis all the machine guns on earth, but you can't make them soldiers.
How the frick does buying stock in companies like this make you any money?
So, who at WB is getting a corner office at Comcast / NBC Universal for sinking WBD+ and thusly creating a FIRE SALE.
how will GoTtrannies ever recover hahahaha
It's a HBO show, not a max show
>no link or source
Check The Wrap that broke the story or any other clickbait sites.
I actually like HBO max
I'd bet Netflix and Disney and all of them do the same shit, they just aren't as comedically incompetent as WB is and so don't get caught.
They do
Feels like this whole streaming thing is a ticking time bomb if that was the case.
It is
Welcome to the zoomer dotcom bubble.
Too bad we're gonna end up bailing at least some of these guys out in the middle of a recession.
