Insider here, expect entire DC slate to be shredded. Only Joker and The Batman verse and Shazamverse are safe. Harry Potter franchise is about to get a 9th film and a tv series for Discovery+. Lord of the Rings film rights will go to Amazon for 4 billion dollars. Yes, Zaslav wants to sell the LOTR AND HOBBIT TRILOGY FILMS AND ANIMATED FILMS TO AMAZON. The PJ films. War of Rohirrim is cancelled but could be revived by Amazon. Amazon will own LotR.
Amazon already owns MGM so theyll have no problem buying up full ownership of the film rights.
New Line owns the films
They are owned by New Line (WB) and Wing Nut. Hobbit are owned by New Line, Wing Nut, and MGM with Warner Distributing. Rings of Power are literally owned by Amazon, Tolkien Estate, and New Line in the minority because they have film rights. MGM WILL own LotR. This is the way.
>new boss, old attitude
Nothing changes, DC still fricked and most franchises will be axed.
So what really was the point of the ATT Warner discovery buyout? It was just to move money around and "lose" a portion of it in accounting right?
Yes
I have a theory that they're gonna pull a reverse Marvel in 1997 move and sell the rights to every DC Character except for Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, and Aquaman and their sidekicks and villains.
Sell the rest off to Sony or Disney.
The cancelling of all these projects and them still needing to rid themselves of debt seems to point to that direction.
That would be the dumbest move.
LOL just wait
But that's moronic. Shit like TTGO is practically the only reason kids watch CN anymore.
> sell the rights to every DC Character except for Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman
The Big Three DC comic book characters go public domain starting in 2033. Not a lot of time to milk that cow.
Lol, that sounds so stupid.
>Yeah, let's just go the way of Sony and owning Spider-Man
Top lel.
Good. Kill capeshit already. So sick of it
>$4 Billion Dollars for film rights to a series that is just factually finished
Big if true and a wise move on Warner's parts. What did you expect them to make a movie on Tom Bombadil?
Factually finished? This shit has an untapped potential, people were asking for more stuff on 2nd and 4th age since fricking Tolkien. If done right, this is a goldmine, but I don't expect Amazon to deliver.
And WB would deliver? Lmao
HBO has a high standard for quality, on every "greatest shows of all time" list, every third show is an HBO show, so yeah I'd say its better chances than Amazon who would just make fluff for streaming content and market it by clickbait controversy
>enjoying HBO MAX for all the good entertaining shows
>sudden FRICKING DISCOVERY storms in, cancels all the shows you're watching or were looking forward to watch
>Discovery: "HERE, THE LATEST SEASON OF THAT moronic WHITE TRASH GIRL AND HER moronic WHITE TRASH FAMILY!"
>Me: "T-thanks...."
>you're watching or were looking forward to watch
Like what?
Seriously it's the hardest service to get a rec for.
Netflix: The Crown
Amazon: Reacher
Apple: Ted Lasso S1
Disney: Mandalorian S1
Hulu: Dopesick
HBO: ...
They don't have any big hits so far but raised by wolves and Station eleven were pretty good, I heard Tokyo vice was ok too
Peacemaker is their most popular so far.
They’re banking on mop hair dragon fantasy
Thats not HBOmax thats just regular HBO. They have Succession and Euphoria and Barry, they'll be fine. Its just the hbomax originals that are struggling.
HBOMax was HBO.
And succession was already gone before the purge because contract had expired and the cast wanted more than the show was actually worth.
Barry is no great gem.
If Euphoria actually has a core audience outside the blue check marks and /gif/, they'll be just as satisfied with the next thing involving teens having sex.
You're cheap and the conservatives that notice you don't mind you. I think you'll be fine. Just avoid two men kissing and keep the Chris McDonald sexual tension thing going because that shit is kino.
They must REALLY be regretting the diversity casting right now.
If anyone should be having a brown moment it's that expensive failure.
>S1
Thanks for letting us know how COOL you are for only liking first seasons because muhhh uhhhh nothing beats the original!
>I'm new here
You're also a out-of-touch homosexual who deserved to lose his Job in the Warner purge.
Stargirl
Deadliest Catch is more entertaining than every fricking DCEU shitshow
>deadliest catch
kys normie
>Insider here: Muh Jerb! Muh precious jerb! Why won't they just let me infect every single thing with my politics!
>shazamverse
just called it DCEU you dumb moron
Frick off WB
Doomwiener must be losing his shit right about now.
>doomwiener
he only care about star wars media
Are they stupid enough to adapt that awful cursed child harry potter book?
Rumors say it will be an original story
>Harry Potter 9th movie
i hope they cut it out with the fantastic beasts shit and do a proper hogwarts flick. maybe set in modern day, would be interesting to see how magical culture has evolved
>Lord of the Rings film rights will go to Amazon for 4 billion dollars
i don't give a frick about lord of the keks
Hacks bros... Are we safe?
100% on rotten tomatoes and a bunch of Emmy noms, surely Zaslav The Slasher will take that into consideration, right?
>Amazon will own LotR
So, if Jackson wanted to make a 25th anniversary Cut of the films (as he'd once promised) he wouldn't be able to? Or would he have to ask Amazon first?
He asks Amazon, they would agree because they wanted him for Rings of power
>Shazamverse are safe
no way he considers shazam a success
>Shazamverse are safe
We keep winning Shazambros.
You still here op?
>Lord of the Rings film rights will go to Amazon for 4 billion dollars
That's a rediculously high amount of money. I'll believe it when I see it
>Only Joker and The Batman verse and Shazamverse are safe.
Started off so well then fricked up at the first hurdle.
Zaslov wants one connected universe like the MCU you frickwit. Joker and The Batman are dead
Any news on CNN getting ass raped?
Whens next Nolan Batman movie?
