The Silver Screen Oasis

It seems like a bad idea. The previous two times this happened, Fox got dismembered by Disney, and United Artists ceased to exist after a while once MGM tired of them.

I wonder what this means for TCM if it goes through? They were already predicting death knells over the Universal take over of WB.

Discovery rather than Universal. Universal is still owned by Comcast.

I bet we see ads for CSI: Peoria, available on your local CBS station (check your local listings) or streaming on Paramax +++.

Maybe they'll pull that bit of Mank rhapsodizing on the WB lot........

My immediate reaction was one of hope that WB would do something with one of the most neglected libraries in Hollywood - that of Paramount.

NO SH-T!!!!

Doesn't this violate anti-trust, monopoly laws?

I'd worry more about Amazon than this (potential WB/Paramount merger), TBH...
